ttc thread - swaying again in 2017 :)

[4blue2pink]

the vast majority of sways on here both blue and pink were done with no or very little effort made by dh, most blokes dont want to be involved in swaying beyond the bd part!

my dh and i have conceived 4 boys and 3 girls, gender pattern B G B B B G G (current babys gender is still not known) and he hasnt made any big lifestyle changes over that time, his diet and exercise dont really vary, hes never taken supplements and he certainly didnt sway!! but i can see more clear differences in my lifestyle with the boys vs the girls.

im not sure about the sperm count thing! is that something that you are worried about for your sway? if hubby has low sperm count and you havnt mentioned it to Atomic already then do! she will no doubt have advice for you that may be different from the norm for blue

i would assume that the XX and XY would reduce in equal numbers and all i can think is that less sperm = more girls which is proving to be true on here given that 1 bd attempt is boasting a 70-75% success rate for pink! while 3 is best for blue!

all my boys came from multiple bd attempts, i didnt count but 3 in fertile window sounds about right to me! where as all my girls (2 non-sway and 1 sway) were from 1 attempt. xx

Wow that's very interestingredients and great to know! I don't know if he has low count, I would hope not being so young. I was just meaning that by smoking and drinking in sure he's lowering his count and that worries me a bit, but It makes me very happy that the majority of the time the dw making changes is all that is necessary. When do you find out your babies gender? Did you sway for a boy too?

[4blue2pink]

most sways on here are all dw with dh just doing his bit in the bedroom haha

im not sure what we are doing about the gender! im tempted to go team green no i swayed pink again this time xx

[TtcBlue18]

Oh okay I feel silly for asking because I just read your signature again and thought oh yeah, duh! Lol. I hope you get another baby girl!! I would never be able to go team green lol, I don't think I'd be able to handle the anticipation! With you having both genders already, maybe that would be a nice surprise though

[4blue2pink]

i didnt find out with my youngest until 37 weeks, ive always found out the gender but would like to experience the surprise just to say ive done it both ways really

how is everything going with your sway? xx

[TtcBlue18]

Oh still going good dh promised to take a break from drinking until after we get our attempts in this cycle (even though it's only been 1 day, better than nothing!), so I'm happy about that. Faint line this morning so I think O is coming maybe tomorrow or Wednesday. I'm so excited!

I think that would be a neat experience for someone. How far are you into your pregnancy?

[4blue2pink]

thats fantastic news about dh not drinking ahhh so exciting!! my fingers are crossed for you to get your bfp soon!! you have such a good blue sway
im 12 weeks this week not sure if i will do team green i just think it would be nice to experience the surprise so im weighing up the options xx

[TtcBlue18]

Right, I totally get it, so happy for you! If you decide to find out gender please let me know

I just got my positive opk yesterday evening and did some bd, and then dtd again a little bit ago, so now I guess all there is to do is wait and

[4blue2pink]

so exciting!!!! my fingers are crossed for you

i will definitely let you know when i know please let me know how things go for you! sending you all my blue dust all the way from england xx

[TtcBlue18]

Yayyy, can't wait to hear what you're having! Thank you I'm only 3dpo and hoping I don't get bfp because I've already convinced myself that my sway was not good enough, even though I felt great about it all the way up until after o day lol.
