Well, none of these things are a magic bullet at all. If something sways 5% of the time (which is statistically speaking, HUGE) and you come into TTC 75% set for a boy, and you end up 70% set for a boy, it still swayed pink for you but that's still gonna be a heck of a lot of boys.
FWIW I got 3 boys without breastfeeding, and a boy and a girl with breastfeeding. I think it helped.
my oldest two are 17 months apart.
My boys are 29 months apart. DS1 was 19 months when I conceived DS2 and I was still breast feeding. Albeit only for naps/bedtime.

Thank you everyone, I know it is not a magic bullet, DS was conceived when DD was 13 months. I was not breastfeeding though as it did not work out, I only managed it for her first seven weeks and then my milk supply just went.
Maybe I will try closer spacing next time around if DH is OK with it and it feels right.
I like closeness in age between little ones, as I hope that will bring them closer together, plus I am already 36...
I would love to have mine closer together. They would have so much more fun together. Unfortunately the timing didn't work out for us bc DH job. But if you can swing it go for it! Good luck :)

I really, really want you to stop and think for a minute DP - 2 close age gaps back to back will be tough on you physically and emotionally and your son also deserves to be a baby for a little while. I just really hate to see you put yourself and your son into a position that may not be desirable for something that is very far from a magic bullet. If that is your preference for other reasons then that is of course your choice, but just gives me pause as a sway tactic. :)
I was swaying boy...but I literally conceived on my DD's first b-day :wink:
Oh, AND I was still bf'ing...
Thanks a bunch AS, yes my reason to try to sway early was to TTC a girl. I believe you are right and I should know that :wink: It has been so tough this time working full time and being pregnant with an active one year old. DH had to step in and help with so many things and we are both exhausted with no family around to help. I do agree I should connect with DS first and then start again for a third when I am ready physically and emotionally...
