you can add me although I wont know for a little bit seeing that I am about 8 weeks. I had my first scan so according to one study its a girl because the sac is on the left. Same exact as DD's. This would not surprise me in the slightest.

Tink - at my 10 wk scan my little guy was also on the right side, don't hold to much stock in Ramzi's.
Not holding to much into at all, I am really excited for my 11-12 week scan to see if I can do the nub theory. Which i still dont understand all that well but Ill post to see what people think.

well I have to go inbetween my 11th and 12th week for a specific scan, Kaiser. SO who knows.
Back to 50/50!
Someone needs to go through all the sways and see what they have in common that could get those results.
Lbam- they try this all the time on IG and all that happens is the "failed" sways get ripped apart along with the swayer. I really don't think there's a magic combo that will work for everyone.
One thing I wonder is do the "failed" sways have all 7 factors involved usually?
I know my 'succesful' sway didn't include 7 factors, it was also heavy on calcium and vit D:agree: I'm truly suprised that we aren't having more success but at the end of the day its that final helping of pure luck that will tip the scales either way isn't it:(
Well going by my luck tonight I am O'ing again and going to add two more girls to this equation :S
Two more boys 5, two more boys;):bigsmile:
That would be great!
My successful sway also didn't include all 7 factors either. In fact I only focused on only 3 things, in this order. HE diet, cm and optimal timing to insure a speedy bfp.
After reading NBP's post about cherry picking stats on IG, that totally makes sense, because at first after reading this thread, I felt like hey, maybe the IG way works better, but you guys are totally right, there were not really good stats there. Our blue crew there last year had more boys than girls, but eh.....
I really believe the dairy thing has more to do with the nutrients and protein. I don't believe in the potassium/calcium thing, personally. I would go full fat dairy for sure.
Hope everyone is doing ok with their outcome. I know it must be hard not to get your dg, but just remember that each one is a huge huge blessing, and will be a special and wonderful part of your family!
:hugs:Lola, we're sticking you in this tally somewhere soon right!!!!!! :agree:xxxxQuote:

Ooh Lola you'll be o'ing soon! Yes I've started stalking you :kiss:
Our numbers are still so small too, I'd disregard any study done on that few lol
Aww, thanks, 3! Stalk away! I am CD7, and our plan this month is to dtd every other day ALL MONTH. I am just hoping it is good for sperm count improvement, if not for this month, for next.Quote:

You O'ed the other day, right? Are you sure you are O'ing tonight? TWINS??Quote:

I know you guys are gonna die about this one, but last night we did it in the bathroom and he was on the toilet sitting!Quote:

Yay for creative sex, have fun with it!
Exactly, I love the dice analogy, that is my swaying mantra!
Was the seat up or down? Was the lid open or closed? That's all I want to know!Quote:

I love it too Lola! I think IG had us so convinced if you did all 7 you would succeed, if you "failed" it's because YOU did something wrong. I got lucky this time, turned just enough blue to tip my odds when we rolled. This is part of why I will/would never sway again.
I don't know, I am confused :(Quote:

I am SOOOOO happy that you got your little man, though, 3, you really deserve him after the m/c and all. XXOOQuote:

DH was hesitant to try again after the m/c because of how nuts I was during my IG sway. I think he would have refused to continue had the monkeys not driven everyone off IG and sent me looking elsewhere. The dice analogy and finally being told there is no do-this-get-boy-guarantee really hit home for me and I stopped a lot of the obsessing.
Hi, you can add me too, I swayed for boy but got a girl. Couldn't be more pleased in the end, so there you go!
Hi Freya! You are soooo close!!!! How are you feeling?
3P1B, I could not agree more....the demise of IG was the best thing for me, and a lot of us, really!
Hey Freya!! How are you?
Hi Freya! Congrats on the girl!! Sorry to hear it wasn't your son this time, will you try again some day? xxQuote:

And I know we followed each other for months so no "cherry picking" involved; we knew pretty well what each other were/weren't doing. I do think even for those 8 though some were just lucky; after all Nutter was the 1st to admit she had a crappy IG diet but she still got her blue. Still, we were pretty honest with each other and that group did end up with a lot of boys...8 of 10 is either darned lucky or there's something there that is worth trying to connect the dots.Quote:
