    Seeing so many former IG members who seem to be disagreeing with the whole avoid calcium thing (does not really apply to me as I do not eat dairy anyway) and qurious to see who is doing what and why?
    Please share!
    Oh, and does your DH follow a diet or does he just take supps and juices?

    I am following IG have been for a month, although I do have almond milk which does contain a little calcium. I don't eat cheese or yoghurt as I can not have dairy and do not like soy yoghurt lol

    I followed the IG diet for the first 4 months of ttc, then added calcium and some other foods back in (and immediately got a bfp, which ended in m/c though), and now am on the, well, TW or Gender Dreaming diet, so to speak! I think there is a lot more to us getting girls than just calcium....seems that the common thread is that we were all eating very little and exercising a lot, in famine mode as far as our bodies were concerned.
    (2002) (2005) from 1st marriage. TTC since Aug 2010- Dx: low sperm count and 1% normal sperm. We are giving up and moving on with a baby-free life.
    UPDATE: surprise bfp in Feb 2013! It's a BOY!

    NEVER GIVE UP HOPE!

    i can only say that dh and i are NOT big on dairy and we have almost all boys. that said i did sway pink 3 times and had 2 boys while eating lots of dairy ttc a girl. i don't think it's a make or break factor but if i were swaying blue i would stay away from it as much as i could. i do think cereal is great for blue swayers though and 2% milk is best.

    75% of all people all around the world are lactose intolerant (even higher numbers in Asia, Africa, and Latin America) and completely unable to have dairy at all. Yet boys and girls are born in very close to 50-50 ratio worldwide. Weirdly, some of the countries who eat/drink the most dairy productus actually have MORE boys than countries where most everyone is lactose intolerant.

    I do think that not eating 3 meals a day does have a lot to do with conceiving girls! Eat up!!
