Pink swayers' December thread

[Out of the Blue]

Jen, I read your blog and it made me cry, I feel sooo much for you, about losing your twins
But yeah, I do believe intuition is there, but it has to be focused on, or other things have to get tuned out
I'm not sure if what I'm experiencing is true intuition or just pure desire

Thx, Auroara. I wrote it to kind of get things out of my system and try to move on.

Regarding intuition, well said! I think it’s there for everyone as long as we tune out all the other noise! Hoping you’re truly just feeling your impending little girl. I’m not sure if you know about DoulaMama’s story or not but she was putting off TTC b/c she really wanted to go to a Doula conference next spring so she book all the tix (even plane tix!), then she had a dream of a little girl telling her, “Don’t go!!!”…Doula was thinking to herself, “Who are you and don’t go where???” then a wk or so later, she got a surprise BFP! I truly believe it was her little girl telling her not to book those tix b/c she would be born around that time. A few wks ago, Doula found out she indeed is expecting a GIRL next April!

My husband and I watch Tim Allen's new show "last man standing" and it's pretty funny for a sitcom, but on it he has 3 daughters, and there the middle daughter is like my husband's worse fear. She's really pretty but kind of vapid, airheaded, etc, and is always getting into some trouble which makes the show funny. But every Tuesay night we watch it, he has to remind me that is the kind of daughter he's "deathly afraid of."

He really is afraid of having a girl I just know if we had one he'd be completely in love with her and I think it would help "soften" him some...just as having the boys has taught me soooo much. I am sooooo in love and devoted to my boys, they have really opened my heart & mind.

I’ve never seen that show (and will now have to watch it, lol) but I’m w/your hubbie! I’m so scared that once I get my wish, she’ll turn into something like that! I’m quite sure your DH will be smitten w/your sweet girl when he sees her for the first time. His heart will be stolen for life!!!

KrazyDaizy....I'm already sticking rephresh, a bbt thermometer, a penis...and possibly a lime tampon!!!! LOL!!! I am not sticking a hand up to reach out the cottage cheese.

The first few times I used RepHresh, I got the curds as well. I just left 'em up there and I think they went away. After I was using RepHresh for a few days, I stopped getting more curds.

hi ladies just wondered if any of you drink crystal light and if you do does it matter what flavour you drink for ttc pink x

Don't think the flavor would matter at all! I don't drink it but it is great for a girl sway!

[KraizyDaizy]

Lemon, I think with you being sick, that woudl sway girl, so i would go for it!!

KD, yuck on the cottage cheese

Mocha, I LOVE the idea! I need to become a dream member! Because of what rephresh did to my area last month, I am thinking of dropping it and using antihistime to "dry" me up and then maybe use a little bit of sylk to help? (the one month I used zyrtec it dried me up so much that hubby was having a hard time with...you know....) Would love opinions on the new plan!

It seems better this am with little to no CG auroara. I think I will eliminate RePhresh and Replens all together.

Yesterday afternoon, I got another +OPK and it was an even stronger line than the previous day. I got an additional temp spike this early a.m. so I'm pretty sure I O'd yesterday or early today sometime. I put more RepHresh in yesterday a.m. and we BD again last night to give it one last shot. I came but at least he'd not come yet. No regrets...just hoping I get preg!

I think some of you were asking what I did w/my sway. My chart below shows a lot. I don't do many things including checking pH, low dose aspirin or SP b/c I'm still BF (6-8x a day). I have been taking Vitex since late Oct. I've been doing the LE diet and skipping breakfast for about a month or so and also drinking Peppermint tea. DH has been taking just a bit of Lic Root and cranberry tabs and began to release when AF was here and once it stopped, we began our BD marathon. Although RePhresh lasts 72 hrs, I've been using a bit almost every a.m. and BD almost every night. We've also been using Sylk. B/c I've had EWCM, been doing a LOT of BD and I think I'm pretty fertile, I chose to use RepHresh/Sylk so frequently. I have no idea what'll come of this but if there's no BFP this time, I'll scale back on the RepHresh for sure. I know I have a really weird sway...just felt right so I went w/it

KD, I think Rephresh can be good, but I don't think I'm gonna get pg with it very fast, so I'm becoming more sure about dropping it....

And Jen, I have the same kind of fear. You know that old saying "be careful waht you wish for"? What if the little girl I dream about so much ends up breaking my heart? I'm hoping, if given a chance to have a girl, to raise her right and teach her the right things, but still it does concern me a little. Oh well, I am just going to stay focused on the postives of having a girl!

One of my students (I work in a career college as a librarian) and I were talking and she's on her 7th pregnancy. She had G G B G B G and this pregnacny is B. I asked her since she had so many kids if she did anything differently with them, eat different foods, worked out, etc etc, and she said to me that she's never changed her habits or her behaviors. Although I am assuming that there are different fathers at play for some of them, she swears up and down that nothing noticeable changed with her. She is on the heavy side as well.

She says she's going to try to have 3 more

Anyway, obviously this is not conclusive, because she may have been doing minorly different things and not have paid any mind, but her theory was that sex selection was very random and a "luck of the draw" kind of thing.

Obviously, I believe swaying can help, but it just drives me crazy to think about how little we still really know why a certain sperm gets the egg, you know?

Yep...it freaks me out sometimes but I think just trying to get a picture in my head of what I want my daughter to be like helps put my fears to rest. You're right! If we raise her right, she'll be a gem! I really believe that! Keep thinking positive and creating your daughter in your head! She'll be on her way to you soon!

Jen, I think your sway sounds awesome! I really love this website and the freedom it gives about making the sway plan that works best for you. Because of the end of the day, each woman has to feel good about what she did to sway.
