Some people can overcome the girl diet - rem. it's not what you eat and drink per se that sways, it's what your body DOES as a result. If your body stays boy friendly despite being on a girl diet, you're more likely to conceive a boy.

How would you fix that? If my body stays boy friendly despite being on a girl diet, what else can I do?maybe eat less? Or Just work more with my ph or vaginal envirnment more? Something causing me to have lots of boys I gotta figure it out lol

Do the diet as best you can, in addition to doing other things like RepHresh, antihistamine, jump and dump, and either abstinence/frequent release to lower your husband's sperm count. You might want to consider saw palmetto for yourself and licorice root for DH.

Thanks I am a one sided swayer lol dh isn't on board, secretly I think its because he got his boys,, and don't really care for any more kids but okayed #5 because we somehow managed to get pregnant and lost he/she and he said he already got over the fact he was having 5 kids but made me swear I would tie my tubes after the birth of this one(well gotta concieve first lol) that's why I pray for twins lol I will look into saw palmetto more and might try it, thanks :)

Melinda, that is exactly how my husband is and was. He said point blank he didn't really want a girl and was quite relieved when DS 4 was a boy. In his defense I don't think he ever really realized how deep my GD went. I think you can still have a great sway without your DH (and see my latest couple posts in the Science section if you want a more indepth explanation of why that might be.)

I'm so sorry for your loss - praying twin girls for you!!!

oh and drinks I am more 90% water drinker, I do like tea but it has to be decaf I dont like the way caffeinated tea taste like lol, I can only drink coffee when I am pregnant, one of my weird cravings becasue I dont like coffee when I am not pregnant lol, i used to be a big dr. pepper drinker before I got pregnant with ds1 but when I found out I was pregnant with him, I stopped and then breastfeeding didnt want to drink it then, then ds2 and bfin and so on, I did try it after I weaned ds4 but it didnt taste like it used to so I couldnt drink it lol, I hate Koolaide and anything like it such as crystal light lol and there isnt any soda pop that I have tried and liked so I just stick with water and sometimes decaf tea

Your diet sounds very similar to what mine was before I started swaying, except I did not eat meat everyday not even chicken and I did drink at least 3 cups of milk every day one of which was coffee (cupuchino from a cafe) and I did eat seafood. Not sure if this helps you. Hmmmm my dh does not eat anything other than what i prepare for him so he pretty much ate the same stuff that I did. That helps in putting him on the same diet as me, although he does snack in between meals which I did not, but that will help in my boy sway and not your girl sway.

Your diet looks pretty boy friendly to me from that list you just gave :)
