I personally don't think J and D sways strongly one way or another. I've done this 3 times and got 2 boys and a girl doing this. DS3 I was too tired and fell asleep, haha.Quote:

We have two boys (non sways) and adding my info. on them to the pile.
DS1: Was working in tv production at the time, so was around computers all day, like 50+ hours a week. We were living in NYC, so I walked everywhere and did yoga @2x/week. Got @8 hours of sleep most nights. Like many boy moms, I love sauces and spices and add them anywhere I can. Typical breakfasts: bagel with cream cheese/ green onion, green smoothies (which usually included bananas), huevos rancheros on the weekends. Lunch: a big salad or sushi or Thai food. Lots of variety. Afternoon snack would be a piece of fruit or handful of nuts. Drank lots of seltzer. Dinner: a burger with all the fixins or veggie pasta or tacos. We ate read meat at least 2x a week. I cook with EVOO or butter, add flaxseed and chia seed to everything. I only drank coffee @3 times a week and alcohol 2-3/week as well. Lots of EWCM and conceived on first try, big O. Taking prenatal vitamin.
DS2: Working from home, but still at computer a lot. Had lost weight from previous pregnancy but was still @15 pounds "over" where I would like to be. Similar diet to above but eating at home a lot more, tons of egg/avocado on toast, still eating red meat regularly, lots of smoothies/protein shakes, cashews and nut butters on toast for snacks, 2-3 drinks a week and coffee on the weekend. 6-8 hours of sleep a night. DH and I were BDing every night for several weeks in this window, still lots of EWCM. Was off of prenatal by this point but had stayed on them the whole time I was bf'ing, and had just weaned 2 months before.
Truly amazing to read all these together and see the similarities. Thank you Atomic for the gift of this site!
Blue dust to you all!!!!

I was very much trying for a baby
Had sex all around ovulation especially on the day before and day of O, tracked with fertility app (was recommended to do this by a friend who has two boys)
Use to lie with legs up in the air for an hour after :0
Also was well rested, had time to eat decent meals, took pre natal vitamins for at least two months before I conceived ..
Lived on steak and chips and more chips and loved puddings
Drank abit of tea but not everyday tho.
Ate a lot of fruit and I loved bananas
No exercise! As was suffering from back pain at the time so was abit stressed, basically if I wasn't at work I was chilling on the sofa! X
