Girls i got my + today at 10 dpo. But i m so scared of my sway. It wasnt a full strict sway. I was on ig diet n then on le diet for 6 weeks in total with one or two cheat meals. I was eating 1200-1400 cal n lost 4 lbs. i m already petite with bmi of 19.
I dtd once on pos opk. Took clomid for swaying. Dh releases every third day.

Oh wow congratulations! That sounds like a good sway to me! Don't think you want your BMI to be any lower than that. 6 weeks with only a few cheats is really really good. X
Hiya.. Im in the early stages of a girl sway after my 2 gorgeous boys! I am doing the LE diet and am taking folic acid, fibre and aspirin a few times a week. DH takes olive leaf extract and licorice root. We BD every 4 days and I don't O if it is an attempt! I'm not exercising though I keep meaning to start! I am so desperate for a girl as this is my last baby but I honestly think I'm destined for boys so if the next is another ill just accept it wasn't meant to be! Xx

It's ok to feel a preference for gender. We have feelings and trying to suppress them before we have dealt with our feelings only hurts our relationships more. It took my DH until DS2 was 6mo before he began to bond with him and now that he is 2yr 4mo they are super close!! He just had to deal with his feelings on his own time, yk?
Be kind to yourself and know it's ok to be disappointed if it doesn't go the way you hope. When we sway, gender is up front and center making it challenging even for those of us that truly don't care about gender! That's how I was when I found out about DS3. I was shocked my sway didn't work and felt shell shocked after hearing the news. I've only wanted all boys but swaying made me feel ok about the possibility of having a DD. I'm over the moon about our DS3, but I would really like for my DH to have the DD he longs for.
Best of luck to you!

Aww glad I'm not alone!! I must admit I cried after I found out DS2 was a boy.. Despite always saying I wanted two boys and a girl! I feel so awful about that now because he is an absolute beaut and complete pleasure to look after!! Plus the fact the boys have each other is lovely as I didn't have a sister til I was 15 and always wanted one! I just want a girl for me.. For the wedding and the grandkids it's a bit different with boys? And I can't imagine boys/men wanting to go for lunch and shopping they would sooner go for a pint with dad and watch football! I may be completely wrong obviously but I can't help how I feel.
I do feel as though I'm being spoiled and ungrateful sometimes as all children are a blessing and for them to be healthy too is all I should want [emoji20] it's really not nice feeling jealous when you find out people are having girls but I do and im really not that sort of person!!
Thanks for listening! Xx

Don't feel bad poptart, there are lots of people who feel like this and I don't think we can help it. I certainly wouldn't choose to feel this way. Having a daughter is just so ingrained in our visions of ourselves, it almost becomes part of our identity and it's very hard when it doesn't happen. But none of us would change our sons for anything. I must say I'm so fed up of the lazy stereotyping that everyone, including myself, does. I'm a firm believer that you can have whatever kind of relationship you choose to have with your child. Ok, so it's unlikely my boys will want to come shopping with me or out for lunch and a gossip, BUT we can find other ways to be close and spend time over common interests. It might not come as easy as it would have with a daughter, but anything you have to work at is worth it ten fold over. I know plenty of mummy's boys who are super protective of their mums. I even have a friend whose father helped look after his elderly mother when she was very unwell with Alzheimer's - and he had a sister, but she was just not as close. X
My oldest son is so the type who would grab lunch with me and go for a stroll at some park afterward to talk about this, that, and everything in between! Just the other day he told me that he loves our walks we take to the park (I walk with the boys in the stroller for an hour and we end up at the park for them to play before heading back home.). He said he loves talking with me about stuff!
We create the type of relationships that we want with our children. We can have and do anything we want with them- the time is now while they are young!

I hope you're right! At the moment my eldest is def all for his dad.. Dads the fun one who play fights and plays football etc.. I'm the one nagging him to eat his tea and wash his hair haha but he is only 3!!!! If he is upset or hurt he tends to come to me. My littlest is def a mummy's boy so far I love it! They do say daddy's little girl and mummy's boys! Still doesn't stop me wanting to buy pink though!! My mum has consistently told me, me and my sister were nothing but grief in our teenage years but my brother was a piece of cake hardly left the house. It was us she had to and still has to worry about in my sisters case as shes 15 years younger than me [emoji4] x x
