My VITEX Journey

[Butterfly Spirit]

what color is that suposed to mean....? tell me the colors, and I agree, it's just for fun! The only OWT I did was the pencil/ring test (right) and baking soda test right, I had no fizz) but I don't believe in them wholeheartedly (well the ring-pencil test I do believe somewhat in)

RED, any red cast or even pink cast to the mixture of cabbage water and FMU is a indicator of a BOY result.
Dark to light purple or even blue means GIRL.
I haven't done the baking soda one, but still might. Just for the hell of it!
I'll have to redo the ring string test too. That's the same one right?
I get two circles starting out. I've heard that circles can mean boy for some people.
I will have to try it again.

What's is that?

It's the red cabbage gender test. Youtube it
Just a fun OWT gender test that you perform before 10 weeks of pregnancy..usually starting at 8 weeks is best.
You buy a red cabbage and cut it up and boil it in some water and then take it off the heat for and cover it for 10-12 minutes, then you separate some cabbage water in a cup and then you go pee your FMU into a cup or go get the cup of FMU you set aside earlier and you combine the two and see if there is a color change or not. You must have the exact amount of urine and cabbage water to mix. I think mine were a tad off but oh well.
I got a BOY result. I'm not taking much stock in it. The ladies that have taken it on our forum that I know about, got the opposite result of what they were carrying.

Babyy you are on the cusp, and could try it if you want to.. but do it immediately.
Remember it's JUST for fun... 50/50!

OMG it sounds like fun! Do u have anymore? But then again I would actually think too much into lol that's just me! I would see girl and be like what nooooo! I've prepared myself for a boy now mentally because I feel like I'm having a boy and everyone has been saying he or him

[Butterfly Spirit]

Well, Babyy that is afterall the safe thing to do! I did the baking soda test today and it did next to nothing.. so that was a GIRL result. It's all in good fun But DH actually did have fun helping me break up some red cabbage and film my test for me.

Hi everyone...I wanted to sart vitex also but m/c on June 30. We've bd a few times here and there since and don't know if I've ovulated. My opk was real light when I did test. I want to start vitex but now wondering the what-if I'm already pregnant...I also heard to take it like stating day 3 of AF? I also heard not to take it during AF. Confusing. I wanted to start it now to bring on AF. Does that work? Any advice? It took 2 years to become pregnant without focusing real hard on it and now that I had the m/c I'm really wanting it to happen and not wait 2 years again. I want to take 3 twice a day right? That will give me a chance of a single or twins? Right? Help...

Hi Candace, I just wanted to let you know I answered this on your other thread!

DS#1 birthday was enjoyed with his brother on Sunday with DH's family. We did a water slide water party! It was very fun! When they did cake we wanted to make an announcement right as everyone sang, but that didn't work out so we did it at present time instead. I asked the boys to tell everyone what was in mama's tummy and they said "Baby sister in there" lol but DH didn't like that so he tried to just blurt it out.. everyone was excited though and of course eager to know when we can find out the sex. My sis-in-law doesn't get how you can find out at 15 weeks, but I told her you can.. but that we will probably do 16. My mom-in-law that I told you has those premonitional dreams said that in April she dreamed of a pregnancy but not a resulting baby, and she didn't know who's it was.. now she knows it was mine because I told her about our loss. She said she dreamed the same about my sis-in-law, her daughter who also M/C.
She asked me how I felt and was like "Oh, but you were sick with your boys!" Then later on she said "I really think it's a girl.. It's a GIRL." UGH!

Last night I got a headache that just wouldn't quit and I got the dry heaves from it.. and finally DH had to run to 711 for extra strength tylenol. It said each capsule was 500mg! I freaked out and only took one.. well the headache is back.. is it safe? I don't want to get addicted to extra strength tylenol.

PS I HATE TAKING MY SUPPLEMENTS! Calcium, Magnesium, B-50 complex everyday BAH! I have thoughts of stopping at 12 weeks but..
I'm torn though because my son nurses so much.. and I don't have an appetite for much..
I think I need the nutrients! I also think I'm changing my mind on lunchmeat.. I think I will eat it. I need the protein! It kills me because I ate it EVERYDAY on salads with DS 1 and 2. This time I don't crave the salad.
