I don't think we are going to attempt tonight. I just can't get over the idea that conceiving on O day sways blue... It's only or first proper ttc month and I think I'd be freaking out for nine months if we gt pregnant this month... Or am I being stupid?? Has there actually been a study done into DtD on a certain day and the baby's gender? I guess there must've been....
Yes there have been numerous studies showing timing DOESN'T sway, that there are NO differencs between X and Y sperm in either speed or longevity. The idea stems from one man who MADE IT UP, it was never based on sny proof, but it was spread so widely that now everyone believes. Well, many. There are lots of myths like that too. But it's 100%, I would bet my life on it and all humanity's life on it bullshit!
It doesn't even make sense logically, neither X nor Y could have such dramatically different traits as it would skew the gender ratio too much. Also, sperm are produced via mieiosis. So one cell with 46 chromosomes including both an X and Y gets split into 2 sperm cells each with 22 chromosomes and and X or Y. Other than the exact genetic info they carry, they are IDENTICAL bc of how meiosis cell division works. They CAN'T have different traits like speed/longevity.
Sorry to gatecrash, but that's a great read that you wrote in your last comment Maiden.
If there is no difference whatsoever, how come frequency sways? Why does a bigger volume of sperm give advantage to the boys if they are both the same? X
Yes I'd def. be in with attempt tonight
No one knows. We can speculate but I find that the more we speculate, the more people focus on speculation instead of just doing what actually works.Quote:

We don't know why multiple attempts sways blue, but I have some ideas. One is that women's bodies respond to unprotected BD, to chemicals in semen. This can cause increased EWCM and may also affect the protein markers on the outside of eggs, which can then preferentially allow Y vs X sperm entry. Atomic has a theory that the number of sperm present in a woman's reproductive tract may affect intra-sperm signalling in some way that sways. Probably there are multiple effects. Unfortunately it would be very difficult if not impossible to study in vivo and there's just not enough money in swaying, and it isn't a serious health matter, so it's not studied much. Ultimately the details don't matter, only what works. We KNOW that number of attempts is swaying significantly and timing isn't at all.
Also, while I do think number of attempts sways, I think diet, exercise and other factors which strongly impact maternal condition have a MUCH stronger effect on swaying. Which makes sense, as that enables women's bodies to respond to environmental cues by conceiving the most evolutionarily successful gender offspring.
:agree: yes guys please try to keep in mind that while we get good results with one attempt, that is ALWAYS one attempt PLUS diet, exercise, and other stuff. it's not one attempt in a person doing everything in their power to sway blue - two different scenarios.
Another idea I find plausible is that maybe fewer sperm might make it just a tad easier for X to penetrate the eggshell and more sperm might make it just a tad easier for Y to penetrate the eggshell. It takes more than one sperm, and the actions of all of them weaken the eggshell. X sperm are just a teensy bit bigger (not massively bigger like Shettles claimed, but just a smidge) and it may be a sheerly mechanical thing - like a sharp pencil might be able to more easily go through a piece of thin paper, while a less sharp pencil might have a better chance going through cardboard if it could work at it a minute or two.
Agree totally that it is probably more than one thing and also would suspect it's possibly something we haven't even guessed at yet.
