TTC boy and curious about your pH

[Coccinelle33]

any time i have ever checked my ph it has been low swaying or not. maybe it just gets high right at ovulation? im not sure. im sure for me my boys were the result of a high salt low calcium diet. i never lost any weight with any of them before pregnancy.

I have 3 boys and prior to swaying my ph was a 6.5!

I have two boys and prior to swaying my pH is 4.5?? So much for low pH producing girls

WantingPink, was your 4.5 PH tested during ovulation? I haven't tested enough to confirm how much my PH might go up at Ovulation. We're TTC Boy and I'm hoping that ovulation will be the boost for my PH cuz we're going for it either way. My last 2 were both boys but I have no idea about my PH for any of my children.

I don't know what my pH was when my boys were conceived but the pH I just recorded was during ovulation. I would highly recommend focusing on good EWCM... seems to me that a lot of us boy producers and are good EWCM producers I was also gaining weight when I got pregnant with both of my boys. I also salt the crap out of everything

WantingPink - You give me hope, I can't seem to rise above 6 for more then a couple days but have been getting tons of ewcm since starting to sway. All my pink dust to you

Do any of you know your pH prior to swaying? I'm questioning this whole pH thing and was wondering what you ladies are naturally. TIA

I could never get my PH above a 6, ever. I was on the supps and diet for 8 weeks and it never budged. So I just did BSF and that brought me to a 7+ on BD day.

Several mths ago my ph was fairly high... messing with it a little I ate my normal summer foods for a week and my ph went up a lot. I went back to eating mostly chicken and some pasta and it dropped a little. But it went up a point with O.... now with missing a meal, eating small, low salt and protein, tons of dairy it went down to 5.7 and with repleans and rephreash it really went down and has stayed low.

Never lost any weight from the birth of DS#2 and I've never eaten so much but I haven't weighed myself. My muffin top tells a pretty good story though. I'm a little fearful that after 2 boys in a row, the odds are stacked against me for another DS plus over 35 sways girl I read. Of coarse, I'll take a healthy baby girl any day of the week, too.

My CM has always been good but taking the Mucinex and supps I'm scared I won't recognize it or that the EWCM is just from the supps. I don't think I ovulated at all last month since no EWCM but I can't be sure as my cycle just seemed to right itself w/ only 2 weeks between AF's. I guess we'll see but I don't want to miss this cycle to ttc. We'll have to see about the OPK's when I take it this afternoon.

Anyway, this isn't my thread but thanks for letting me vent (not that I gave anyone a choice)

Hey, I conceived a boy at 36 and a boy at 38, so I KNOW it's possible! Good luck!
