*atw cereal almost every day
*always ate breakfast
*tried to keep positive ions up - cell phones , laptops , iron , etc.
*dh only wears boxers
*no saliva used during attempts (kills sperm)
*gender calendars say boy (not that it means much lol)
*dh & I both took probiotics daily
*i was on antibiotics prior to O for a short time which MAY sway blue.
A couple things I'm worried about -
Moon phase was girl - although my dd1 was conceived in a boy moon phase so not a huge deal .
I had a pretty nasty cold prior to O :(
1 of our 4 attempts I did not have fertile cm and we didn't use preseed
Not sure we were taking some of our supps long enough to make a difference
We plan to find out in January with the blood test :) I'm nervous as can be !
Praying morning sickness stays away . I swear I believe in the morning sickness theory = girl lol . I know not for everyone but it seems to be that way in my family . I had hyperemesis with dd2 :(
