Thank you Rainbow flower!
My sway is over and the waiting game is on to see if it worked. Seeing the stats in plain writing like you have done gives me reassurance that I did many things to help swings things in favour of a girl for me.

I still love your ongoing dedication to this rainbow, thanks so much for updating when there is new data.
aww thanks, I get an email whenever someone adds a record so I'm happy to go and update it now and again when we've had a few new ones arriving
Thanks so much for doing these stats! These numbers make me happy when when looking at all I used in my girl sway!!! Thanks again for putting in the time and effort! Blessings!
I'm new to the board and to this but the New Moon statistics are making me sad. I ovulate almost exactly on the full moon every month. It looks like one of the strongest sways on here. :(
thank you!!!!!!Quote:

This spreadsheet is so awesome. I also went through and did a check for timing (cutoff) +just ONE attempt, and found the following:
OV/pos OPK => 16/25 = 64%
2-3 days =>7/10 = 70%
O+12 => 6/7 = 85%
4-5 days => 1/1 ==>we all know what that percentage is, but with just one of these, this is not really worth calculating!
Again, I just want to point out that having spent lo these many years on the boards by now, there is no way of knowing when people actually ovulated. Even people with a high level of expertise are having trouble calculating O (me! I totally missed O with DS 4 and with DD I thought I had Oed 2 or 3 days later than I really did and both times I was shocked at my ultrasound).
So maybe it was a cutoff, maybe it wasn't, maybe it was O+12, maybe it wasn't.
I really think that the stats reflect the following "truth" of swaying - the people who do the strictest sways, IF they can get pg doing that, are the ones who are the most likely to do timing. Strict sways succeed more often than relaxed ones - except for the people who start off TOO strict, can't get pg, and then end up dropping everything all at once. :) That skews the stats too.
The stats are great but please ladies, don't read too much into them. The best data we have at our disposal shows 50-50 boys and girls conceived every day of the cycle.
completely agree, although have to point out that ultrasound dates can be wrong by up to a week too. With DS2 it told me that we had conceived him before we'd even DTD that cycle (and we know our DTD dates for definite) so obviously not possible ;)Quote:
