Hi Longing.for.a.daughter - just saying hello & offering empathy, both for your loss & your nervous wait. I have 2 boys too & desperately want a girl. My husband is happy to try all the natural methods but is uncomfortable with PGD so I am also nervous. He is one of 4 boys & there are only a few girls on both sides of the family. I'm willing to do anything but so scared it won't be enough & we also only want 3 children. I love my sons & will love whomever our next baby is too but every dream I've had for my life has had a little girl in it & I will be heartbroken if I never meet her. Best of luck with your pregnancy.

Wow Primal, our stories couldn't get anymore similar. We had discussed PGD but he hadn't shown much interest in it and was relieved when I got a BFP and the discussion stopped. He is desperate for a daughter too but seems as tho he would be more interested to keep popping kids out until we a girl and I'm not on board with that specially having complicated high risk pregnancies (blood clots with #1 so on blood thinners for all pregnancies) and having csections means max of 4 kids anyway but I only want 3.
I also love my sons but can't shake the overwhelming sense of non-completion without a daughter. If this next one is a boy I'm wondering if once he arrives I will feel complete or if this won't disappear until we do have a daughter. So tough and none of my friends understand as they all have mixed sex's.
When are you due? So nice to be in touch with someone in a very similar situation. Crossing fingers for a pink bundle for you.
Riley (boy) 1/9/09 💙 Mitchell 14/2/12 💙 Early m/c 11/2/14 💔
BFP April 2014 due December💚2014. Hoping for a girl but have a strong feeling it will be boy #3

Oh I just read back to see your swaying... Good luck :)

Thank you Longing... I'm normally a health nut & eat Paleo so the diet is totally out of my comfort zone! But I guess the fact that I was on essentially a very nutritious HE diet may explain my boys. This LE is definitely different for me! Hopefully it does what I want it to.

Hey Primal, just checking in to see how you are?

[QUOTE=PrimalMamma;568193]Hello... Again! Just wondering what other ladies do regarding HUNGER? I normally eat a Paleo diet (hence 2 boys) so this is a really different approach for me, other than I am sticking to gluten free as I am I tolerant. And I am constantly STARVING. Last night after being really "good" all day I ended up smashing an entire (gluten free) Vegetarian pizza from Dominos. Fail. I am just so insanely STARVING.
Hi PrimalMamma! OMG! I am so hungry too! I also have two boys and wanting a girl desperately.
I'm in Melbourne.
I also eat based around Paleo principles as well as IQS and this goes against everything I usually eat/drink. Hoping I fall preg next month when we start trying again. We started trying in Feb/march this year without success. I lost so much weight that i couldn't go any lower. So I took a break and am now starting again.
Hope you're all doing well girls xo

Hi Chloe sorry haven't been on here for ages! I'm currently sort of in the 2ww, we weren't going to attempt for July but just got a little frisky one night... No idea if the timing is right but I've almost given up on swaying anyway. I couldn't maintain the diet I was too hungry & the lack of protein made me depressed.

Hi Gals,
I just joined today. Looks like this thread has gone quiet. I hope you all come back.
We have 2 beautiful boys and want a girl next as this will be our last. I've been reading on the internet about different diets and I've been trying the high cal/mag, low potass/sodium diet with cranberry, but now reading on this forum all those things have gone out the window and I have to start again, on the LE diet. What lengths we go to to get a girl.
