    Happy LBAM - ttc journey

    I am starting slowly with my swaying.
    I want to see I can increase my PH first before even attempting to ttc
    I've got some test strips, Zinc and L-arginine.
    Slowly ticking off things from the BOY swaying list.
    Any suggestions on what I should get next?

    What are you using, or what are you planning on using ?

    The L-arginine says to take it with a carbohydrate drink. Is that a sports drink like powerade etc? Do I have to take it with that or can I take it with water ?

    Thanks I will just post here for now then.

    I'm not really sure what to say.
    I've wanted another son for a while now, and thought about swaying. I'm feeling really scared to actually do it though.
    I've been doing alot of reading and taking notes about supps, diet etc. I was just recently reading my notes and found out I started getting serious about the research back on May this year. I can't believe it's October already and I am still "reading" about it all but not really doing anything.
    I am becoming more and more obsessed it's all I think about.

    How long did you research ? When did you know / feel it was time? Do you get a feeling or do you just have to go for it and hope for the best?

    These are my notes so far, are they correct?


    Diet high in potassium and sodium

    DTD - deep - usually from behind ( + O for the woman first cause body releases a substance that makes the environment more alkaline which favors boy sperm)

    If a couple wants to have a boy they should refrain from having intercourse until 2 days prior to ovulation and then have intercourse daily until ovulation has occurred. It has also been suggested that a man drink a big cup of caffeinated coffee or a big caffeinated soft drink before intercourse to help give the boy sperm an extra little push.

    In order to try and conceive a baby boy your vaginal environment has to be alkaline, which is a PH of 7.5-9.8

    You can test your PH with PH strips - Y sperm (boy) thrive in a high cm pH, however you don't want it to be any higher than 9.8. You can change cm pH through diet.



    Potassium pills 99mg- Makes cm more alkaline add potassium to cm. Only a little is absorbed with pills.
    More is absorbed with diet.

    Fish Oil 100 mg- EWCM and makes cm more alkaline (only take recommended amount, not meant for dh).

    Folic acid 800-1000mcg –strengthens egg and prevents miscarrage and is needed while on the boy diet
    and even ttc in general.

    Boy Diet
    High Alkaline is what you want!
    AVOID Dairy (very acidic).
    Sodium (salt) and Potassium are GREAT!!
    Eat things High in sodium, canned soups are great! Watermelon, bananas, fresh pineapple are high in potassium.

    Try to make as much ewcm as possible



    Eat lots of meat, salty foods, and drink lots of water. Have DH drink strong coffee
    (or Red Bull, something with lots of caffeine) 30 minutes before having DTD



    No sex several days before Oing to build up supply

    No milk or dairy products (creates an acidic vaginal environment that kills off male sperm) for the mom to be.

    Try to have an orgasm before, during, and after sex



    What foods are high in potassium?
    cantaloupe
    Bananas
    Oranges
    Apricots
    Avocado
    Strawberries
    Potatoes
    Tomatoes
    Cucumber
    Cabbage
    Cauliflower
    Chard
    Bell pepper
    Eggplant
    Squash
    Crimini mushrooms
    Brussels sprouts
    Turmeric
    Parsley

    I would start taking folic acid now, 2,000mcg.

    I took the l'arg with juice, although be careful it can dry you up!

    Dairy, most of us are actually having dairy - full fat
    Fathers Day baby!
