    Spicy food and TTC a girl

    I think I've seen it posted somewhere that spicy foods can sway pink? Like for instance Wasabi peas? Is this true? Thank You.

    Neutral, doesn't sway either way.

    My Ovulation Chart
    currently TTC, Cycle #16 since last BFP

    TTC #1 - swaying pink on & off since Nov 2013 - hoping for a girl first but excited for either!

    Dec 2001 - May 2006 : 5 early abortions of healthy singletons (3 medical @5w, 2 surgical @8w, last 4 pregnancies conceived with late DH, all conceived while TTA/on birth control)
    Mar 2012: miscarried B/G twins @5w (conceived 2 cycles after remověng Paraguard copper IUD while NTNP), one twin was ovarian ectopic

    Me: 34, widowed, late O + short LP, normal-good hormone levels excepting undetectable testosterone, seeking a known sperm donor/life partner
    My sway: vegetarian LE for over 28w, skipping breakfast, fibre (ground psyllium husks) with/before/between meals, physically inactive, drama avoidance, ocassional minimal YesBaby lube as needed, alternate cycles on low dose Clomid, double shot lattes (with meals)
    Past sway tactics I've dropped (in order): Vitex, Sudafed, antihistamines, intermittent fasting, one attempt per cycle at positive OPK, one attempt in fertile period

    Where did you read that??

    I personally don't think they sway at all and I had tons of wasabi peas and hot sauce iwth my daughter, but just in the interest of full disclosure they used to claim on IG that spicy foods swayed blue.

    Hi Atomic, I can't remember where I read this. It's something I came across maybe a few years ago. But I'm glad it's still possible to get a daughter while eating Wasabi peas. I've been having a serving of them daily because they really satisfy the craving I have for spicy food without too many calories and surprisingly not too much sodium. By the way, thank you so much for all your help. I'm so glad I came across this site!

    I hope spicy foods don't away blue! I do have a vague recollection from IG that they used to say that but I often sprinkle chilli flakes on my veg so they are more tasty. I can't do without spicy foods!!

    I ate tons of wasabi peas with my daughter. We were really busy and they made a handy snack that had a little protein in them.

    This is one of those things that when viewed through the lens of the real world simply cannot be true. there are whole cultures where spicy foods are eaten daily, even as much as every meal. ARe all these people having only boys?? Nope.
