I love reading things like this since so many people act like we are crazy for having gender preference. But people all throughout history have been interested in baby's gender and even monkeys and apes will check the baby's gender as soon as it's born. We have these feelings from some innate human urge! :)

They are all talk but even the worst of them admit to trying Shettles or whatever when TTC if you ask the right way. Hypocrites.

I never heard about the Drano test till mid 2010's here. Wonder where it came from ?

There have been so many things throughout the ages proving people were desperate to know the gender and why you birth one and not the other.
1500-1600 England believed that eating quail eggs and asparagus would net you a boy.
Spain thought salad swayed blue.
Even now in France, you have people telling you that sleeping on one side or the other will give you boy or girl. A lot of us are still trying to tie a needel to a string and swing it above our pregnant belly to determine if it's boy/girl. They pretend it can even tell you how many children you will have and what gender each of them will be. Works also with a wedding ring.

EXACTLY and even when they didn't, they'll admit that they wanted one of both if you ask them. But once they find out WE want a certain gender they act like we have three heads or something!!

I mean all this time and energy people have always put into thinking about and wondering about baby's gender, it has to be innate!

Or like we are monsters and/or baby killers. And for those who can go HT, like we're into some sort of human trafficking business. I've heard quite a lot of "The people going HT (even for infertility) are BUYING their children ! How disgusting ! Shame !" or "Wait and see when the kids will discover they were made in a lab and BOUGHT ! They will kill themselves asap ! Poor little ones !" :shrug:

Honestly, I've yet to meet a "HT kid" on the brink of suicide because of the circumstances surrounding their birth :think: But I've known at least three people who were suicidal because they were abandonned as babies/toddlers by their "got 'em the good old way" parents.

Yes sorry thank you!! Please on your own thread if you don't mind.

Yes, it's terrible, it's just terrible people's attitudes! While we've come a long way towards accepting medical intervention with fertility, there is still a long way to go and people's inner beliefs can be very ugly, unfortunately.

I can't understand really. It's not like people could just have kids but decided to play Dr Frankenstein in some secret lair or whatever... And it's not like helping fertility hasn't been done or tried before, with potions or whatever crazy rituals...

Woke up with cramps this morning. Still no blood in sight but considering the date, that's not good.

If we failed this time again, I will be disappointed really. How come other girls succeeded in their first month TTC and I can't, even though I'm doing the exact same things they did ? Am I too fat to be fertile or what ?

Also, what, so when I don't want to be preg, some lost sperm still finds the egg no matter what, even though I'm tired, in the middle of moving places, stressed out, hungry and sick... But when I'm doing okay, as happy as can be, safe and taking lots of stuff I don't usually take to up my fertility, it's a big NO ? Is it some kind of cosmic joke ? God's sick sense of humor ? Is it so funny for Him to throw my life in disarray and make me miserable ?

Sorry, I'm ranting a bit while not knowing if it's AF (although I sense it is, I don't think these cramps are about pregnancy). But I'm so over failures. Especially when everyone around me gets boys or whatever else they want with their eyes closed. So so tired.
