Complete PINK Swaying Statistics Spreadsheet Info and Links to enter your sway

[blueeyedguys]

Stats updated. Only 3 new sways since last month.

Just a heads up, Claypot had added her data to the spreadsheet after having been told boy, but then a subsequent ultrasound revealed she was actually having a girl!

Do not do RRLT as it may sway blue. I have no idea how a blue sway tactic wormed its way into our statistics (I don't do the stats and blue eyed guys simply inherited it all from another person) and I'd love to see it gone as I get questions on it constantly.

The ONLY people who have ever done RRLT for a pink sway were people who'd gone on swaying a LONG time and had not gotten pregnant. Honestly, it's a last ditch thing that I try sometimes when people aren't conceiving. So those stats are completely misleading since people who have not gotten pregnant for a long time tend to have more girls anyway.

We have tracked peppermint tea separately and know it's not really working, but at least it's supposed to sway pink. Stay away from RRLT unless I personally have approved it for you.

I'm really busy right now, but I can see about removing the red raspberry stats after the end of school if that would make things easier.

I would love to have it out of there. Only 3 people used it that I know of and all of them had been TTC for over a year (which really, really skews the results) Thanks!!

I wonder why licorice root for dh is getting such bad results? I'm nervous now in 2ww .Should we drop this if I don't get my bfp this month ?

I was thinking of having DH drop licorice root too and switch to olive leaf extract.

I believe it is a statistical quirk because the first few years of the site it got good results (70% range). And since this number, the 70% or so, was back in the day before we understood time on diet and one attempt mattered, I believe this to be a legitimate finding that has since been clouded/obscured by the success of other things.

To elaborate, since most people who use it are young and highly fertile, and those who conceive while using it have got pregnant quickly (since we drop it after a few months) this skews the stats since those people are also the more set for boys and this also translates with the least amount of time on diet, with a substantial minority % of the LR users getting pregnant with less than 12 weeks on diet. So it ends up being that the responders who got pregnant while using LR were already the most likely to conceive boys, and the responders who got pregnant not using LR were already the most likely to conceive girls.

This is actually the reverse of what has happened with OLE - I DO NOT yet believe that OLE is very effective and I think the stats on that are misleadingly high but since the people who use OLE are coming in the most set for pink (since I only tend to use that for older couples and men with sperm health issues, giving all others cranberry) I strongly suspect OLE is made to look far more effective than it really is.

I am using LR less and less since I can't totally trust in it the way I once did, but since those early results (not to mention what I observed back on IG, where it is also widely used) and also biologically in accordance with swaying theories all line up with LR swaying pink, I am not ready to ditch it. No one needs to use it if they don't want but a 27 year old dude with super sperm - I believe LR may help in that scenario, even if it isn't glaringly obvious from our numbers. not giving it up yet.

But OLE is NOT a sub for LR. They are two different things.

If you drop LR, go to peppermint tea for him.
OLE is a replacement for cranberry.

Do not use both LR and pep tea.
Do not use both OLE and cranberry.
YOu can add soy milk/food onto either combination and it may add something.

Thank you for the advice. My husband will be 35 next month so he may not need LR anyway. It took us 5 months to get pregnant with DS.

[atomic sagebrush]

Just follow your gut. I promise that humans got and get baby girls every day without LR so if the spirit is not moving you, it is absolutely fine to skip it.

Only two things I believe to be proven for DH - smoking and jogging or biking.

[Megan B]

Well he just started jogging again... and he occasionally smokes cigars! Hopefully it will help! Thanks for everything you do, and that this website is doing!!

[atomic sagebrush]

You're welcome, it is my pleasure!

The only thing my husband did for our sway (deliberately) was start smoking a pipe! He didn't even do it that often and of course I did other things, but we did get a girl.
