Thread: Call me crazy

  1. #1

    Call me crazy

    But I'm thinking about doing basically no swaying. Sometimes I think the more I try the less effective I'll be because I obsess/worry too much about it. And honestly, I just want to be pg. I'm one that can and will be truly happy with another boy (although a girl would certainly be great and I really really want one!) but I figure girl or boy, I can't lose. God will give me what I should have and I'll take comfort in knowing he'd hand pick another little bundle just for me. Has anyone else felt this way? I might still use replens every 3 days up until after I ov for ph reasons and take my vitex & cranberry but that's it. So, am I crazy? Will I regret not trying more?

    I've had that thought many times as well. I am also Type-A, and I feel like I am going to obsess no matter what. I wish you luck with whatever you decide to do!

    For me I really want a girl so I will try as much as I can without trying to be obsessive. Yeah right. I hope the more I try the less disappointed I will be if it is a boy again this time. I think it depends on the person and there family and what works for them. Good luck!

    That is as valid a swaying technique as some of the others out there! I don't think there's anything wrong with that approach at all, esp. for those of us who get all control-freaky and stressed over stuff like swaying.

    Honestly, there are some days that I look at my third son and thing...what am I doing? What could be more fantastic than four little boys...what could be better than each of my sons have THREE BROTHERS to have his back his whole life and then I remember...this is just for fun to see if I can have a chance at that daughter because in the end I feel so much like you there is a spot I honestly believe missing in this family and it will be filled by whomever He sends to be with us....if we are blessed enough to have another. Best wishes to you on your family you sound like an awesome mom!

    Not crazy. It is a peace many of us have silently wished for. Good luck to you.

    I wish I can do it , not sway. But I really want a boy . It's not just that some of us are control-freaky or what but more like scared. At least Im.
