Things that make me feel great about my sway:
The fact I was on it for a while and the
Wide nutritious food intake.
Things that make me nervous about my sway:
There were times before my BFP cycle where i went for almost 4
Hours roughly of not eating! And possibly putting on weight.
Things worth mentioning:
Chinese gender chart said boy and some say girl.. But
I will have to wait and see. I have many, many more sleeps to go
till I find out who was chosen to be tucked away inside of me :).
All in all I went into this swaying knowing I had nothing to lose, and constantly reminded myself its
Not guaranteed and opposites are inevitable but regardless I am waiting to welcome my Lil unborn with opened arms no matter what the gender..
