Lissa, I have been following some of your posts (I do a lot of looking and not a lot of posting lol) and I think you still have a great shot at a girl!!! Once I got to thinking about it I am not entirely sure that I had 4 attempts either. According to my temps I ovulated on day 14, which would give me O-4, O-1, O day, and O+1. I'm not sure if I should count the O+1 since the chances at that point are not good. If not, then I only had 3 attempts. If I ovulated on day 15 then O-4 wouldn't count either which would still give me only 3 attempts. So I'm prob actually in the same boat as you.Quote:

Oh how nice that you are able to do that at work! Im 8 weeks as well. Are you feeling the same so far as you did with your previous pregnancies? Yes I definitely want to find out gender. How about you?
Please understand this does not mean that 4 is "better" than 3. How would sperm "know" that there was 4 rounds instead of 3?? I am mentioning this to make someone feel good about their sway, not to make someone else feel worse about theirs.Quote:

I think it's kinda silly to assume that "oh, therefore that means 4 is somehow magically delicious" and look instead at other explanations why, such as that many people who have 4 attempts probably have some of them before the fertile window opened, or maybe they'd been swaying a long time so just wanted to get pregnant, or maybe they were on Clomid, or whatever. The point is simply that people do still get girls with 4 attempts and so no one needs to beat themselves up over it.
:agree: exactly this x 1,000,000Quote:

I wasn't saying you were trying to make me feel bad about my sway... :worry:Quote:

As always, thanks for clarifying.
There is a trend this direction (and I can go into why I believe that if you'd like) but it's by no means a magic bullet at all with an equal amount of time in our stats, to successful sways, and opposites for pink swayers. For blue swayers, this is not currently being tracked to my satisfaction due to too few people but I see a definite trend that the gals who aren't getting pregnant inexplicably for months are having overwhelmingly opposites.Quote:
