    Did anyone sway and cant get away from feeling like they failed?

    I havent even confirmed what im having yet but im already getting so down on myself that i know my sway failed and im getting another boy. Im mad at myself for not exercising, having 2 cheat days where i ate chicken lol, convincing myself that me or DH just cant "make" girls lol... Stuff like that but im really feeling beaten up about it (esp the exercising part). It makes me even more nervous that if i do hear boy and i already feel like this now before knowing what is it going to be like then?

    Has anyone else gotten really down about their sway attempts before they even knew what they were having??

    I was SUPER down on my sway. Turned out to be a success, so feelings don't necessarily mean anything

    Good luck!

    I'm not even pregnant jg606 but I think everyone does it especially as we all want it so bad! Try and tell yourself positive messages like you did the best you could have, because you did!! Big hugs xx

    I will say I was hesistant to go down the path of swaying at all because it worried me if my sway "fails" that I would feel even more GD than if I hadn't swayed at all. I did some soul searching and came to the conclusion that even if I could only manage a "lazy" sway (not being perfect on the diet, not including all the pills and potions some people do) I'd feel better that I at least did SOMETHING to try to change my fate and if we have another boy that's somewhat my destiny (or whatever). I think if I hadn't swayed at all I'd always wonder "what if" whereas now I can tell myself I at least tried something and either way my family will have the baby we are meant to have.

    Atomic is right, your feelings don't mean a thing when it comes to gender. And chicken, I ate chicken throughout my diet because I could not live without some kind of meat, I did not exercise, not even once, and I am having a girl. I guess we all have those ups and downs and during those 'downs' we just convince ourselves that there's no way you could possibly have a daughter, not after all those boys, but hey, most of us have been there and the stats for girl sways have been pretty good last time I checked. You've got every chance! Good luck x

    Thanks everyone for your thoughts i logically know its crazy to feel like this especially when i dont even have confirmed gender yet but i find myself staring at ultrasounds and cant find a single girl one that looks anything like mine. There was no nub really in my pics but i think thats what started me feeling so down plus stupid intelligender and its boy prediction lol

    Intelligender also gave me a boy prediction! What a waste of $ that was. Hope you feel more hopeful soon, you've got every chance x

    Intelligender said girl for me with DS6. Very wrong indeed. I wouldn't get hung up about it's results. x
