I don't know that this is true. I can't find info on it anywhere.

I'm 5'11 and 130 lbs and have 3 boys. Only two pregnancies but still 3 boys.

No fat on that woman just silicon and filler.
Ladies don't lose hope I am only 5ft and had 4 boys. That's up and down and side to side by the way! lol

Tall girls tend to have boys?? Really? I'm doomed!!

Atomic, can you put any science to this or is it just an observation?

Um yeah I don't just say things like that without data.
I am on kindle and can't post links but looks like Harley did.
I am only 5-4 and have 4 boys, that does not mean you are doomed to have all girls.

Tall people can have girls and short people can have boys, it's just an overall trend that direction.

This is true for all mammals too btw because big males are better at getting mates. There is a section in one of Richard Dawkins books about it.

I'm a little ass backwards too lol. I'm 4'11 and will soon have 4 boys. My heaviest conception weight was 108lbs (DS2) and lowest was 89lbs with this pregnancy. I still very much believe in the science behind the genders we have but I'm just an exception to the general rule. Someone has to break the rules, right???

Plus, I'm not sure that we are dealing with "rules" per se - I think it works more like a sieve and the best we can do is sway the odds in one direction vs. the other. I think it's totally possible that some of us can have conceived our first boy or two or three while we were in effect swaying blue thru diet/lifestyle, then we sway and have actually swayed the odds pink but then just have bad luck on the last go-round.

Example (just meant as illustration, this is how much I feel like I had chances of boy)

Boy 1 - 80-20 odds of blue
Boy 2 65-35 odds of blue
Boy 3 90-10 odds of blue
Boy 4 70-30 odds of blue
DD 20-80 odds of blue, and then I got lucky and hit the 80% and not the 20% (20% is still a heck of a lot of boys). Could easily have gone the other way.

also links to some studies in this You are what your mother eats: evidence for maternal preconception diet influencing foetal sex in humans

I have several books on evolution and reproduction that have info that is not always online, I'm not asking anyone to accept anything I say on blind faith of course but I just want everyone to know that I don't pull stuff out of my behind, I have reasoning and/or evidence behind everything I say beyond any observation.

I am 5'11", 160 lbs, and I have one of each. This will sound strange - although I swayed for my boy, I have a feeling that what really happened is I swayed for my girl. I had just lost 20+ lbs and was doing cardio like a mad woman when I conceived her, and doing the TW diet was 100% EASY for me.
