Since we will begin actively trying the cycle after I get AF again , I decided to try to sway this time- it was so much easier when it was an accidental pregnancy :)

Anyways my question is about Ph- I have a digital tester and its been clocking in at 4.5-5 and this is after about 4 weeks on diet and supplements. I had some EWCM a few days ago and it was only 4.9!!!! I gooled about CM and I found that the Ph should naturally sit about 3.5-4.5 to be hostile enough to kill any bacteria that may enter. Soooo my question is 1. Will it be SAFe to try to raise my Ph to 7-8? And that seems like a looooong shot anyways
And 2. If I can do bsf (will add in BSD after I get AF because i don't want to be on it too long) will the BSF be sufficient enough to create a boy friendly environment?

Thanks in advance this group seems great!

Hi and welcome! Let me know how I can help!

First off - pH. The normal secretions of the vagina are 3.5-5 to kill bacteria. However, the normal pH of EWCM at ovulation is much, much higher than that, between 7 and 8 normally. This is to help the maximum numbers of sperm to survive. It is not only safe, it is desirable for pregnancy (not to mention swaying blue) and women actually have to see doctors and be treated for low CM pH. It is TOTALLY possible to raise your pH to 7-8 and in fact it will help you to get pregnant.

Before you do anything else, let's just make sure that you're REALLY testing the right stuff...it's very easy for CM to be contaminated by the lower pH of the vaginal secretions http://genderdreaming.com/forum/show...-for-DH-and-DW

Secondly - Here is a list of the most fundamental posts for swaying blue, they will tell you a lot of what you need to know and of course you are always free to ask about anything you need to know!!http://genderdreaming.com/forum/show...your-blue-sway!

Thirdly - I'm sorry but I don't think BSF is anywhere near enough for a boy-friendly environment. I hope you'll look into adding Pre-seed or Egg white, along with Robitussin to your sway (the links for these are in the post above.)

Sending you all my blue dust!!!!
