Older first-time TTCer hoping for a boy
Hi y’all! I’ve waited a VERY long time to TTC. 46 and this is my first attempt .
According to my blood work, there is no reason I can’t, but I’m still aware my chances are low. This is our second month actively TTC, and I have a natural boy sway-ish diet anyway: lots of fresh veggies and eggs and fish (I’m a pescatarian), no processed sugar, no junk food, and a slightly high BMI. I’m also taking a prenatal, vitex, extra B complex (always have because of my no-meat diet), dha, and coq10 (ubiquinol). No alcohol and I just cut out caffeine this month.
At this age, I’ll be happy just to Have a healthy baby. However, I have heard that older first time moms are more likely to have a girl. What is the science behind that, and is there anything else I can do, or stop doing to increase my blue odds?
