I've been trying not to talk too my toddler group as we discussed this and now if we do have a boy they're going to tease us lol. Cringe!
Oh and yes I was saying if we do get our boy, he'll probably be a bit more feminine. Poor Lamb, kinda hoping for b/b twins tbh so can have each other to support against 2 big sisters but I'll be happy with one single boy

My hubby is a pain in the butt!! He is more than happy to do anything I ask him to, but won't help with planning or anything at all. He is totally against swaying and thinks it's rubbish….so he just thinks all this stuff is to increase fertility to get pregnant. I prepare all his food, get his sups out in the morning, etc… So pretty much have full control to give him anything I want. He never asks questions about what he is eating or what pill he is swallowing.
DH actually insists he wants a 6th girl…he is very passionate about it too. He says it's too late for a boy now, he doesn't want the new baby to be favoured or treated any differently to our current children, so wants another girl. Deep down I think he would be thrilled if we actually got one though…he always wanted a little boy!
I have noticed a change in me since I had DD#5…I used to be very laid back….never really stressed about anything. Lately I have become obsessed and research every little thing I do in my life….I have started to micro manage my whole damn life lol. I have also noticed I am now rather passive aggressive which I wasn't when I had my girls. But to be honest…while I would LOVE a boy, I just want a baby now. The TTC unsuccessfully twice over the last 2.5 years, then DH changing his mind about another baby a few times….I will just be happy to have one last baby of any gender.
PoP, my hubby can be dismissive of all this and will be happy enough with another girl. He wanted 3 babies all along. He's happy to go along with the diet - more minced beef and beef burgers, he's happy lol. It's just the supplements he doesn't like and is putting off taking them till we start HE seriously in April.
He would like a son but I think he has resigned himself to being a girls Daddy. I hope we'll change this and get our boy. But I'm looking forward to being pregnant and meeting our next child the most. Our 2 girls are so different it will be interesting to see what another would be like if our sway doesn't work.

I am not convinced at ALL that sodium sways blue, so please take some care and don't rely on sodium alone for blue sway.Quote:

I think everyone except my GD friends had some vision of me favoring a daughter and never really could quite wrap their minds around how that really wasn't the deal. Me having a daughter doesn't take away from the boys.
That's lovely he's so involved. My husband just does what I ask in regards to supplements ect and I've seen him looking on here a few times too!

I think I need to read back through your diet for boys sway. I've convinced myself to add more salt where I wouldn't if you get me. If anything I'm trying to go more savoury and wholesome with my diet and adding more beef/red meat and cutting back on empty calories.Quote:

I have read information to say that sodium does away blue and know my diet was very salty so it seemed to ring true. There have been studies where timing and diet did have an impact on the percentage of girls born - I don't know why it would actually work tbh but it's just something I've read!
After this weekend away from my boys I don't think swaying is for me anymore tbh. I think I am complete with my family for now. Who knows that the future holds but I just want to hold my boys and enjoy them. Good luck to everyone ttc pink or blue xxx
Hope it was nothing negative that has changed your mind Mulberry?
I avoid salt where I can so I'm only adding it as seasoning. It's to try combat the sweet? cravings. I know I don't have to avoid sweet foods but I don't want to eat empty calories, just fill up on nutritious food.

This was the study btw just for information purposes:
Elsevier
Not sure how accurate the findings are or if it was a bit of an ig approach to displaying stats haha!
No it was very positive :) I missed my boys so much when I went away to see friends. I 'know' my boys, they're tangible and my yearning to see them was real and almost painful. I would like a girl but I don't miss her the same way I missed my boys. They complete me :) and they're the ones I should be putting all my thoughts and effort into right now. Swaying was starting to consume me and I think because of the type of personality I have I need to cut that piece of me out for now at least xx
