Bucket Loads of BLUE BABY DUST ***** Boy Swayers Thread for July '12******

[ELP]

Thankyou everyone
I'd love to even up the odds to 50/50, that way I can hopefully eliminate any gender comments in the future and just have the 'havent you got a telly?' ones
Skrimpy, I'm usually around the same with my cycle returning, but I think I somehow brought on af mid june after stopping taking cranberry tablets for a bladder infection? I do not think I've oved though yet so it may be a hiccup. Baby Dave is such a sicky baby (just been referred to hospital) that I'm weaning him with baby rice atm as the meds just make him sick aswell, so the weaning will probably speed things up aswell

My thinking is, I'm officially gonna be NTNP, but I may aswell be boy friendly just in case. So I've started the fish oil and vit D daily and have been doing a little strength and toning using my favourite props- the kids They're having a great time being chucked around again lol And I'm thinking more about what I eat 1) to try and get Davy some good milk and 2) to help sway. I should really get DH to start taking his pills again lol.

I sais I wouldnt be trying again until the house was sorted but I can always do that afterwards can't I

Great pic ELP..you have a lovely family!! Are you going to try even up the boy:girl ratio? It's great that you guys want to continue...6 will be it for me though!

PoP I've missed you, how is the new job going?

Love this ELP!! So your girl ratio is still more the boys? think I counted 5 girls and 4 boys but I could have counted wrong!! I think gving Davy a brother would be fab....and I'm going to live viacriously thru u...it would be so cool just to keep having 'em and see what happens, but I know 4 will be our absoulete max!

PoP I've missed you, how is the new job going?

It's going great, I absolutely love it. I have been concentrating on losing weight, getting fit and becoming healthy ready for next year. I figure if I completely change my lifestyle and eating habits then I have to naturally have a better chance of getting the gender opposite to what I have been producing in the past

Funny thing is though...that now I am not TTC for a year....my cycles are back to the perfect 28 days and I have so much EWCM it isn't even funny!! Ironic!!

[dloui128]

It sounds like things are going great for you PoP

[skrimpy]

PoP so glad to hear things are going well. It's so nice to feel like you're really doing well for yourself... it's fabulous that your cycles are being good and the EWCM has picked up. Good things to come from that!

GL Mae, that would be a cool anniversary present & story for later

ELP, that is an awesome picture! I get warm fuzzies just looking at it. I grew up w/4 sisters and tons of cousins who lived close by and I just have the most wonderful memories of tons of people around.

I am secretly glad this thread is moving so slowly, I can actually keep (only able to check on weekends)

Woo hoo! DH is good with us TTCing 1 month Sept/early Oct. I'll take what I can get

He is doing crappy at trying to be healthy though and because it's summer he has definitely been drinking/smoking. I have REALLY asked him limit to the weekends, we'll see. He does remember to take his supps. half of the week, not that it matters too much, but who knows.

I am resigned to knowing his unhealthy habits put in the girl zone more, but I am happy to have another DD vs. not having another baby, just hoping for a DS for my one and only DS. He does feel a bit overwhelmed with 3 little sisters and begs me for a boy. Poor thing, he's 5 so doesn't fully get that Mommy and Daddy don't decide that.
Anyway I'm rambling-just happy to be able to do this in a bit.

TTC5, Are you due in Oct. My 2nd DD was born in Oct. (I have one in each season) and I loved the fall. My two oldest kids picked the fall leaves and we dried them. Then when she was born we did a little photo shoot with a brown fleece blanket, a couple pumpkins and those dried leaves. The older two still talk about collecting those leaves and the pics came out so nice. Not sure where you are

Skrimpy, that makes me feel so good. It should end up being my 3rd cycle too back while BFing. Although my first AF was only 3 days, weird for me, usually that first one back is heavier, not lighter, so I'll see what happens. I am charting, so I 'll see if there are any changes.

Anyone else have a really light AF after BFing?
