New! Preparing to do a pink sway :)

Also caffeine has been totally debunked as a sway tactic. The best study ever done on diet showed no difference in gender ratio between moms who conceived boys and those who conceived girls, and caffeine use (intake was not measured, only if they used it or not). High intake caff. may even sway pink by lowering fertility overalll. Coffee may be a better option than tea.

The whole idea that caff. was a no-no was because it supposedly caused calcium to leach from the body, which has subsequently been debunked in numerous studies. Plus, it assumes that calcium sways and we are not at all convinced that is the case. Several of us went onto get girls without calcium after failed sways where we were taking high doses of it. (myself included!)

Cran juice is not as good as Diet Coke because cran juice has quite a bit of nutrients in it that may sway blue when ingested in excess.

We've been getting good results with one attempt at pos OPK for a girl. Timing doesn't sway, 50-50 boys and girls are conceived every day of cycle so it's totally possible to get a boy that day too if your overall lifestyle supports it.

Diet in and of itself does sway. No sway tactic is ever going to be 100% and they all do work together, but I think diet is the linchpin upon which everything else rests.

Thank you, Atomic. From what I've been reading I've found that timing doesn't play a big factor. I responded to you in my other post about that. I have started drinking diet coke already and won't drink cranberry. I love this board and all of your kind advice. I'm working on learning the LE diet and avoiding certain foods. I posted in the "how we got our boys" thread today. It's fascinating how "boy-friendly" my diet and habits were/are! Thank you!

Oh well that's good news! I only drink one cup a day but I knew I'd miss it if I quit!
