My Ph is 6 2 days before DTD....HELP!!

Thanks Atomic! Now I must endure the dreaded 2WW! Should I be staying on the LE diet for most of this time....all of this time?

You can relax ever-so slightly but it's best to stay on it as much as you can.

Thanks Z and Atomic. But I kind of don't get it....if conception has already taken place as in sperm has met egg, then surely gender has already been determined? I'm not good at understanding the studies (try as I might!) so are we saying that if a girl embryo has been made then it would prefer a low blood sugar environment with which to implant? Sorry, I'm so naive!

Yes, that's exactly right. XX eggs suck up a lot more glucose than XY do (and of anything in swaying, this is proven 100% because researchers have actually witnessed this and can use it to tell fertilized eggs apart) and XX seem to develop better (divide faster and grow quicker) in a lower glucose environment because of this. Too much glucose may mean that XX sucks up too much glucose and does not develop properly. Once the baby has implanted, it begins to get nutrients from you rather than sucking them up from the environment and you don't have to stay on the diet any more. 10-14 days.

Please note, we're not trying to "weed out" genders we don't want after conception by lowering our blood sugar levels. IN fact, it's probable that a strong healthy bean of either gender can develop perfectly normally in a wide array of environments. It's just that it makes no sense to try everything to conceive a baby of a particular gender and then not provide the optimal environment for that baby to grow and implant. There was a disproportionate number of chemicals amongst pink swayers on IG (even though certain parties disagree on that, several people noticed the same thing independently) and I believe the blood glucose stuff is one possible explanation as to why.

Aha! That does make sense to me. Thanks Atomic....I've only got another 10 days of no breakfast or morning tea then.....cos I'm crossing everything that I'll get my BFP!!!!

Good luck Sassy!!!
