Hahaha true!! But see that's normal for us! Probably part of the reason we had a girl first [emoji23] I mean don't get me wrong I love my big O's.. But more often then not we just have quickies here and there cuz we're so busy. And I'm not a foreplay person! Idk what my deal is haha!Quote:

I'm sucking at everything lol. I had a big O on my extra oops attempt. Although I'm pretty sure my hubby might not have enough sperm yet to do much. Lol. We shall see. I had an ultrasound dream last night and was convinced it was a girl from skull shape then saw a little penis flapping around. Haha not that I believe in signs but I was like oh crap. 2 weeks feels like forever eh. .... does anyone feel like they are just a boy or a girl mom? I just feel like I'm only a girl mom.

I had a dream while I was pregnant with my first that the baby was a boy.. Came out all girl lol! So I don't believe in dreams anymore..
I totally thought for sure I would be that boy mom.. didn't even want ONE girl.. Just wanted all boys.. Now that THATS not an option anymore, I have this sick feeling tht I'll never even get one boy /: and that all my kids will just be girls.. /:
How many girls do you have nann? I feel the same about a girlie trust me!! X

Well I only have one girl! So I know it's probably annoying for those of you that have like 2-3 or more of one gender! I know I'll have more opportunities to try for boys.. I just never pictured myself with even one girl lol.. I feel like it will be God's way of teaching me a lesson or something. I feel blessed with my daughter don't get me wrong! It's not the kid or kids I have that upsets me.. It's the kid o may never have that upsets me. Ya know?Quote:

Yeah def. My boys are amazing but I would love a girl for the wedding when she's older and the grandkids and im quite a girly girl so would love doing her hair and other cliche stuff! She would come out wanting to do motocross like her brothers I expect [emoji23]

So for folic I'm taking 4000mcg a day! Seems like a lot, but anything extra will be expelled through urine. But studies show it can cause hyperovulation- releasing more than one egg.
And cassava is a wild yam that's specific to a South African region. The people there eat it regularly and are said to have more than normal ratios of twin pregnancies. They say it's like a natural clomid so to speak. But again- it's just a theory. You can buy the cassava root and cool it yourself- but I've heard it's very bitter and you HAVE to know how to cook it properly. I resorted to cassava supplement pills. To get the full affect, it's recommended you take them regularly for 30 days prior to conception. I've done my best to do that so we'll see! I also bought cassava pops! They're individual bags of little popped cassava chips with a little bit of salt on them! I've been eating those as much as possible and then daily from CD1 - O!!
Again- all are theories and don't have a TON of evidence to support them. But many swear by them.. So I figure why not :) I'll keep you posted!!
I've never thought about her wedding hmm that is a good point that'll be fun. I'm such a girly girly girl too. I think there's something to the maternal dominance thing. I'm a skinny but soft no muscle mild tempered mom and so are most of the other girl mom's I know. Some of the boy mom's are abit more dominant personality wise and more naturally well muscled. Hmm interesting. I hate being so soft and as much as I love it I'm trying hard not lift weights lol

Makes sense I am quite a dominant person! My Dad is a firm believer in the maternal dominance thing and has said I will have all boys! My mum reckons if I have a girl she would be my 5th [emoji15] which DH will not do! So im sort of holding out for all boys. I have a great big list of boys names and 3 for a girl [emoji85]

Will do!!! And clomid for sure sways twins so if your doctor recommends it for whatever reason I would def take it! Soy also is said to sway twins. I just don't do soy just it sways pink too. And I don't wanna take too many chances! I really just want a boyQuote:

I have no idea what to do with a girl.. I can barely dress myself... Let alone a baby girl.. Lol! So she wears hoodies and jeans every day like her mom ;) I feel bad more people assume she's a little boy.. I'm letting her hair grow out super long of course so that will help.. But for now it's like "aw such a cute little boy!!"
Doesn't help her name is Rowan.. So when people ask "what's his name!?" I have to go "well HER name is Rowan!" Some people catch on and others don't haha. I seriously have no clue what to do with one girl let alone two, if this next one is a girl too.. Ugh..
Oh I did clomid. I had a boy.

Psophia before I had kids I thought I was a girl mum, could not imagine having boys, and then I had 3 in less than 2 years! Just about over the shock of it! You are right about stereotypes being bogus. I think it's a lesson I needed to learn, boys are just as awesome as girls. Now I'm so used to raising boys.
So has anyone seen that super moon?!!!! If you believe in all the old wibpves tales I've chosen a bad time to try and conceive a girl!
I don't know that there is any way to sway for both girl and boy, since the swaying methods are so different, you couldn't do both.. It'd have to be one or the other. I would say just make sure to are up to health and well nourished daily. Take the supplements to sway twins.. But if you want a girl more than a boy, maybe sway girl while taking the twin supps.. That way if you don't get twins, at least you know you tried for a girl and may still get her! And I couldn't tell you if bfing sways twins.. I've heard it sways pink. But that's all I know. I stopped breast feeding when DD was only 6 weeks old. Couldn't handle it anymore. Wasn't working for us. So I've had normal cycles now for 6 months!Quote:

Is the cassava safe to take. It will not mess up your cycles right. I am going to purchase a plan soon to ttc a girl from atomic.

Atomic are you here. Can I have twins by using the bundle package of ttc a girl.
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
It is, just make sure you buy from a reputable company. Somewhere you know it's not fake like a placebo and where you know they've prepared it properly in their capsules. But yes it's safe to take. Many women have had great success with it in regards to getting pregnant with healthy babies, and a handful have resulted in twins.Quote:

I have ID twins, Drs told me they don't really know what causes ID twins. Am horrified at the thought of having twins again, part of the reason we have put off trying again. Really hoping extra folic acid doesn't affect ovulation...... One thing they said is your chances of having twins increases the older you get (bit like your biological clock panicking as time is running out and releasing more than one egg) and I was also told that taller women tend to have more twins as we are naturally built to accommodate more! Not sure about the truth in that but I am almost 6ft tall. I know another tall lady who had triplets naturally.
Which one do you recommend nann3r. How do you take it also. I just got my period and I am breastfeeding. My period was only for 2 days though.
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Yeah I'll find the site I used for you. And it's just like any other supplement. Just calls for 1 a day for 90days. It will be harder to track when exactly you ovulate since you're irregular already due to breast feeding. Are you tracking O??
So lucky ttc2015. I really want a girl and 3 kids. I have boy right now.

I've heard the age and height thing too! Which I have neither going for me that's why I was like bring on the folic and cassava! I'm 5'2" and 23 years old haha :) not good for twins! So will see if these silly theories worked! :)Quote:

The only thing I have heard about increasing your odds of multiples are fertility drugs like clomid probably because they are helping to boost your ovulation????? Even then probably more women have singletons than multiples using these.
Sort of. I am ttc in May. I bought this thing called bellabeat that helps track your ovulation. I am going to buy the sticks soon. Also my question if I see high fertility then I have sex for a girl then after o no more.

Ttc2015 I did do clomid. I got a boy a huge boy and no multiples.

The twin thing where do I find it. Can you screenshot if for me please

I mean you could go high tech /: just an option. If I had the money I would totally do it! But that way you could ensure you get a girl, and high tech pregnancies have high twin outcomes!Quote:

Forever Blessed Cassava Supplement for Twins | Cassava for Twins | How to Have Twins Naturally I've heard good things about this site. They also have a handful of testimonials. This is the kind I used. I would talk to atomic about all this though when you get the girl package from her. I'm not a moderator. Just an avg swayed like you doing my own little research! :) so fed get her recommendation before buying anything I've suggested!Quote:
