    did i sway boy or girl?

    so despite good boy sways since 2002 i now had a grand total of 7 daughters! 1 passed away shortly after birth and my last one was an identical twin. so i only count the twin which never made it past 6 weeks because i know her gender. so i have 5 girls at home and i know 2 in heaven.
    im content with my girls now. its taken me a long time to say that but im ok being a girl mom. which brings us to today. im 13 weeks pregnant with another one. i did not sway. i was not trying to get pregnant. i was taking minipills. i do not know how to sway girl but i need you girl swayers to tell me if i did sway girl. im honestly content with whatever i get as long as its healthy but you know how that now knowing screws with your head.
    i took cranberry pills (uti) and drank a lot of cranberry juice. i took vit. c ( was getting a cold) i don't eat until 1 or 2 pm. i ate salads, fresh fruit, pastas, tuna. but i do like alot of salt on my tuna. and i confess, alot of potato chips. dh and i were drinking alot of soft drinks. this was confusing to me. caffine sways boy i know but someone told me once that soft drinks lower ph which can sway girl. so i have no idea if thats true or not.
    we always bd after a hot shower. and i usually O on day 17. we did not dtd on day 17. we dtd on day 14, 16 and 18. ( my reasoning was that all my girls were conceived on Oday and we can't make boys so i won't get pregnant anyway) this was after a 14 day abstiance because i had a uti and a cold and didn't want him touching me.
    my mothers intuition is screaming girl at me. im not sure you can convince me otherwise but odds say this has to be my boy right? was that a boy sway or a girl sway?

    Seems like a girl sway to me, but someone with more experience might know better than me.

    sounds quite like a girl sway to me too... but you never know! I'd say you're due for an opposite!
    did you eat much meat/fish other than tuna?

    do you have a nub photo from your dating scan that we can look for gender clues on?

    Cranberry juice, cran pills, skipping breakfast, BD after hot shower - strong girl sway. Idk how minipills sway.

    However, after 6 pregnancies of the same gender, you're more likely to have an opposite ie

    thansk ladies. like i said, i honestly don't care as long as shes healthy. i had 1 scan at 11 weeks 1 day. baby was facing the camera so its not a profile shot and baby was in the middle of a flip so baby is upside down and you see face and arms only. trust me i've looked and looked. i don't think i want to find out the gender i just want a slight clue. i guess im going with a slight girl clue. thanks ladies
    and no i don't eat much meat. a steak is the worst food ever to me. if i do eat meat its tuna or chicken only. no red meat it grosses me out

    I think it's more of a girl sway - but like you said, after so many of one gender you may very well get an opposite this time!

    Lots of girly sway things mentioned in your first post. BUT there is ALWAYS a chance you will get an opposite EVEN when you are a hardcore swayer.

    tell me about it. i swayed boy since 2002. i won't tell you how many egg whites i shoved up into places we don't want to talk about.

    I've found that statistic: families with 7 children: only 1.6% chances for getting the same gender like your previous 6, or in other words, amazing 98.4% for a boy!!!! Cool!

    a boy would be amazing but i can't help but feel discouraged. i said odds were on my side 3 girls ago and im still waiting. im trying not to get my hopes up too much
