HFLC diet while swaying for a girl?
I am completely overwhelmed by all of the information on this site, and just have a few questions.
First, I am eating a high fat, low carbohydrate diet, and have been for about 9 months. I really don't want to change it too much, as I still have about 45 pounds I want to lose. I never eat breakfast, just a cup of coffee. I have a couple ounces of cheese for lunch, and some form of chicken with either green beans or broccoli for dinner most nights. I have been avoiding red meat, tomatoes and obviously potatoes. I do occasionally have bacon or salami, but have been trying to avoid that too. How much of an impact will this have on my sway?
Second, DH is 48, so I am skeptical about doing things like jump and dump or lime douche. I am worried with his age, and I am 31 so I am no spring chicken either, that it may hinder conception. Can anyone weigh in on this?
Third, we have been considering following SMEP this cycle, as that is what we did when we conceived our daughter in 2013. However, I hear this sways boy so I don't know.
Side note, although it may not make a difference, we have been ATTC since June, and I had a miscarriage/chemical pregnancy around 4 weeks in the beginning of August. I am currently on CD2 of my second cycle after the loss.
Supplements: I am currently taking calcium citrate, magnessium, cranberry (until + OPK), folic acid and biotin. I was taking prenatals until yesterday, but I read that it sways boy so I replaced them with the folic acid.
I would really appreciate some insight, as I am really lost. I want to do as much as I possibly can to favor conceiving a daughter, although I know there are no guarantees. Thank you in advance!
