So if your theory is that swaying is harder for those with lots of boys already and that people who sway for a girl after one boy is somehow skewing our results, that is really not supported by the facts as most of the people in our sway stats have at least 2 and even more often 3/4 boys already. Way, way more people sway with 3 boys already than sway with only one child.
Here is what I did differently with my DD:
One attempt (only conception with one attempt)
Losing weight (with other boys I had either just gained or was holding steady)
At lowest conception weight
Husband and I both drinking alcohol (did not with any boys)
TRUE LE Diet for 6 months
Vitex for 6 months (but I also got a boy taking vitex)
Breastfeeding (I was with DS 4 as well but not any of the others)
Coffee instead of tea (only one without drinking tea, I drink massive amounts)
Only kid where I was skipping breakfast
Was not taking vitamins or eating fortified cereal (I took vitamins with 3 of 4 and ate cereal with 3 of 4)
Under loads of stress/sleepless nights
I had probably the lowest sex drive of my whole adult life due to vitex, stress, lack of sleep
Husband inexplicably took up smoking when he turned 40, only conception where he was smoking
Husband had gained tons of weight compared to when we got our boys
Lowest intake of dairy and calcium for both myself and my husband by far
We were both over 40
