Anyone need updating mommas?
Hi True Blue - Do you look into the sways that werent successful? Were they maybe doing something other people werent? Do you think you could add a place if there isnt one already of things that dont really seem to be working so that people like me who are TTC for a Boy know to avoid those things?
Yes we do try to track our success rates and you can look those over here: http://genderdreaming.com/forum/tryi...readsheet.html You also may find this thread helpful where we discuss what we were eating when we got our boys http://genderdreaming.com/forum/tryi...-our-boys.html
As of yet our boy database is small and imperfect so please take these numbers with a bit of a grain of salt - some of the things that people were doing and taking that have a sample size of like 2 people aren't necessarily good things or safe.
I do not feel the diet information is at all accurate in that spreadsheet (makes HE Diet look less effective than IG Diet when it's actually better) so here are the results we got the first year of the site, which aren't being represented in that spreadsheet.
BLUE SWAYS THAT YIELDED OPPOSITES
Begonia (HE)
waffles (HE)
Zivic Bubac (elements of both HE and IG)
son4meplz (HE without dairy)
boyjoy (IG)
Deb H (IG)
Babydes(IG)
Freya (IG)
Cheekymoo (IG)
gizmo(had some elements of HE but followed IG mineral recommendations)
SpicytunaSushi (had some elements of HE but more IG)
Iluvmyman (IG - her sway is not in the sway section, it's here http://genderdreaming.com/forum/gend...ay-2011-a.html)
I do not have much info about the following three sways.
Sunnyebsh (found a couple of her posts on IG and she did an IG style sway.)
Grasshopper (I'm not sure she ever posted a specific sway - she got pg after only a couple weeks of swaying.)
Kris 217 (this is kind of a special case because she had unusual circumstances for conception, so not sure that we should include this sway for or against either approach even if we do get more info.)
BLUE SWAYS THAT YIELDED DESIRED GENDER
Aqua (did IG but did not have super high sodium and potassium intake)
Daisyfay(IG)
Luvncamrin (IG)
Roonarpia (IG)
Proudmummy26 (IG)
My 3 girls(IG)
My Fab Children (elements of both but more IG)
Tinkerbell (IG)
Just Kim (IG)
Iyamaryam (IG)
Tink18 (HE)
Chunksta (HE)
3pink1blue(HE)
WashingtonPromise(HE)
ELP (HE)
Anissa'sHope (both, but more HE)
Bumblebee(HE)
TTC5(HE)
ams (HE, limited calcium and ate more salt but didn't track mag)
Dloui (HE)
The Anchor (HE)
Flava (HE and plan)
alexis2007(did not diet but took prenatal, B6, and high dose folic acid.)
Ynwa (HE)
Skrimpy(HE)

Wooooop wooooop :celebrate: best news ever!!!
janse and jlmacbw swayed blue but got a girl
Updated Atomic :)
Interesting! I was actually wondering what kind of sway the mamma's, who swayed for a boy but got a girl, did. I am sorry if this question is too personal :).
Congrats everyone who is having a baby! :baby2:
Please look in the add your boy sway forum (where this thread is posted) and you can read a lot of sways in there, both successes and opposites.
Some of the sways were great and it didn't go their way. I'll say that right now - it is absolutely possible to have a "perfect" sway and still get an oposite. I suspect that over time as we add results we will settle in with 80% being the theoretical upper limit that most people can expect with a great blue sway and 75% the upper limit for girls.
Now, I know that is not the answer you are looking for so I will go over a few things I have seen. It's not meant as a rebuke in any way on anyone, eveyrone does the best that they can do and the purpose of this is only to help other people have the best chances they can.
Many of our blue sway opposites were in people who had had some complicating factor such as they were using at home artificial insemination or the husband had serious health issues, was super overweight, was on medication, had trouble DTD and a really low sex drive or some combo of all of those. Some of them were in people who inexplicably did not get pregnant for many months despite doing everything to conceive (meaning they may have lowered fertility for some reason we do not know, that may sway pink) The one biggie that I have seen again and again is the men who smoke. This is HUGE and if your husband smokes it has to go for best odds of a boy. There were some who were doing the old-school sway diets and avoiding calcium and magnesium and Vit. D, and eating tons of salt, and others who insisted on doing timing. And a few who just weren't that into it and gave up almost right away (this is an issue I have sometimes with blue swayers who tend to be more fatalistic - they don't think they can make a difference and so they give up).
Two things that you can control that I think can help a sway is firstly, doing the weights. It really helps. And secondly, just because it is a High Everything diet you should not gain in excess of 15 lbs absolute max and most people should gain only 3-5 lbs. no one needs to gain 30-50 lbs on HE Diet and in fact that may really harm your odds of success.
May I be added to the list? I swayed blue and I will find out the gender in January.
Ultrasound on 12/4/15 confirms penis is present! :] So happy. Thanks GenderDreaming!
Congrats kperez. Huge congrats[emoji106]
