Girl sway, when prone to girls, sway boy?

If it's really that risky or the chances are so high, did you doctor advise you not to get pregnant without assistance?

No because its a mental illness so cant be detected before birth I dont think. But aall the men have it so I know the chances are my boy will too. But in the uk gender selection is illegal as far as im aware. So we have to rely on swaying. I was happy to stick at 2 but hubby really wanted another and I would feel bad to deny him of the big family he wanted.

So i have a chouce of: dont find out until birth and hope i bond no matter what but it means ill have a miserable pregnancy or find out and if its a boy, have a sad pregnancy and if its a girl have a worry free happy pregnancy. Im just so scared if i have a boy he will inherit a common family illness that runs in the boys.

I get that. I got my first baby, a girl, without swaying. She passed away from a malformation that mostly hits girls, 9 out of 10 babies affected with this are girls. That's fear number one for me. My oldest son has autism, my second son is very much like his brother. Everyone told me with my eldest he is fine and that I was worrying too much. Now look here, I was right. With my second son the exact same things are said to me, everyone is in denial again and I'm seeing it clear as day I could scream! My oldest son was also born with a medical issue that only affects boys. Autism also mostly affects boys. Either way, wether I get a boy or a girl, I'm scared to death. But what can I do? The heart wants what the heart wants. All we can do is try our best and hope for a healthy baby. I just close my eyes and jump. You will love your baby no matter what, whether your baby is healthy or not. My life is full of worries and it's hard work caring for my sensitive boys. But it's rewarding, I wouldn't change them for the world. If you have a son, you will find you will still be the proudest mom in the world!

However, if you are still very scared and would def not want a son, there are options out there for HT, also in Europe. In Czech you can do HT for much less than in the US. I've considered it, but it scared me because I struggle with health issues myself and don't know how my body will respond to all the meds. I'm sure my OB would strongly advice against it. And I would love another boy regardless. Just hoping if he comes to us, he will be healthy. But if not, he will join our little crazy bunch and fit right in!

Well, 2 girls does not mean you're heavily meant to do anything. There are people with 6-8 girls! :) Tons of people have 2 girls and then a boy just naturally without doing anything seemingly differently.

I think swaying pink is swaying pink no matter what. Just like if you hold your breath you run out of oxygen, one person's body just doesn't work differently from other people. You can sway and get an opposite of course.

Honestly, I am not sure I'd TTC naturally if it is that much of a sure thing - I'm not saying you shouldn't, just that if you're this fearful about the possibility and have 2 girls already, I'm not sure I'd proceed if it was me. (not that you should or shouldn't do anything, just saying what I would wonder in your situation)
