I'm just under 5'3" and small-framed (cool wrist tip!) and while I've usually hovered around the 100-lb. mark since adolescence, most recently I've been closer to 105. I keep thinking I need to work to shed some of that weight (my pants don't feel comfy around the waist!) but since I intend to start my full sway after Christmas, I figure I better hang onto a little extra weight so I have some to lose when I am low-everything-ing (how's that for a verb!) and, if I can handle it, doing the 60-70 minutes of exercise six times a week.

While I've had more of a sweet tooth in recent years, I would say as a rule in my life I've been more into salt -- bacon just might be the world's perfect food. I was a breakfast eater with both of my boys -- oatmeal every morning before DS#1 and a smoothie of banana/blueberries/juice/yogurt before DS#2.

Why does being tall sway boy? Boy this is depressing between this and the GERD/ acidic reflex I found out I have today (which I thought I was having a heart attack it was so bad) do I really have a chance for conceiving a girl?

More muscle mass = more testosterone and also in DH, taller men usu. have bigger testicles and bigger testicles make more sperm.

Please don't be depressed though, it is a slight statistical variation and you still have every chance at a DD. AFter all, where do all the tall chicks come from anyway??? Tall moms and tall dads!!

I know firsthand that my good friend Little Ladybug from IG is also 5-10 and has 3 boys and then the most gorgeous little gal you ever did see.

Rebecca Romejn - 5-11 ft. tall and twin girls
Brooke Shields - 6 ft and 2 daughters

And I'm sure there are many many others.
