good luck ttcgirl39 i hope you get a little sister for your girl, im so sorry you lost your DD2, we lost our DD1 at 18 weeks it is such a horrific thing to go through :( and like you i also went on to have 3 boys in a row after losing her! but i then had 2 girls in a row so never lose hope :heart:
Thank you all so much for sharing your stories and experiences. I am grateful to hear them. I have to admit that I was shocked when I got pregnant with another girl after having my first daughter, but overjoyed! Then, when we lost her I felt like everything in my body and soul ached in a way no words could ever describe. There is still such a void there. Anyway, I am very excited to meet this baby boy soon and I’ll always cherish him!!!!! However, I really thought my third boy was my last boy ever. I remember feeling this emphatically after he was born. It’s hard to describe, but I just knew it in my gut. So..... now there’s a very big part of me that does want to have another daughter BUT I really don’t see myself wanting more boys. That’s where I stand...

yes i did, i swayed for DD3 and had a girl and then i swayed again with my youngest and had DS5
that is so strange about feeling that your DS3 was your last boy, i had that feeling with my DS4 i just knew that he was either the last boy or the last boy for a long while and i had 2 girls in a row after him and then DS5 so DS4 was the last boy for a while :)
the void is something i completely relate too and was not prepared for, i thought another healthy baby would fill it but it didnt, for me it was very much gender related but even after 2 healthy girls there is still an empty space where our DD1 would have been xx
I have never gender swayed before really apart from an app which said dates to try for a girl I had a miscarriage on that pregnancy too at 9 weeks and I was terrible sick for those few weeks so I suspect that might of been a girl but I have no idea how I conceived the two girls which I did.
Have either of you any tips on what I should do for my gender sway for a girl that worked for you as although I'm reading here I still feel very confused.
Diet, exercise, one attempt, and Clomid or Femara if you can get them. Coming off BCP may help a little.
For DH, jogging/biking and smoking are proven in studies to sway, olive leaf extract and soy milk may sway.
All the rest of the sway stuff really doesn't seem to be adding anything.
