You shouldn't feel bad. They are totally natural feelings and I had them too! Just letting you know that if you don't get your dream even though it can sting you will be OK and you have heaps of support on this forumSometimes I still wish things could have been different as my life would much easier now not having to think about adding another child when I only wanted three but then I wouldn't have my amazing twin boys who I wouldn't change for anything

Just out of curiosity, why are there so many natural twins conceived from pink sways? If blue swaying is intended to increase fertility, it seems like this would lead to more twins overall?? I'm just interested in the science of it!

we don't know but I have also been intrigued by this. We have not had many (any??? drawing a blank here) natural twins from blue sways, I don't think??? Despite the fact that much of what blue swayers do is supposed to up odds of twinning. Then again, we have probably 3-4 times as many pink swayers as blue and it may just be a numbers game.
Please keep in mind that this may not be because of swaying, however. Many boy moms may have PCO-tendencies and may be hyperovulators by nature and just never caught both eggs before. People are also using breastfeeding, TTC after a miscarriage, and several of us have had 4-5-6 kiddos already, all of which up odds of twinning.!!!

Additionally, there are a couple ways to think about "fertility". When I say reducing "fertility", I am referring to the ability of sperm to meet egg. I believe the easier this is, the more blue-friendly the couple. But there are other types of fertility such as the ability to release good eggs, possibly more than one, and the ability of those eggs once fertilized, to create a pregnancy, plus the ability of a woman's body to sustain two babies. I think only the sperm meeting egg is really swaying gender, although there may be something with possibly more boys lost if someone was in truly bad condition - I don't want anyone to EVER get into that bad of condition. I only intend for swaying to happen pre-conception, not post.

Now that I think about it, quite a few of my pink swayers already HAD twins...twin boys! at least 4 pink swayers on here already had twin boys, 2 fraternal, 2 identical (and I think I am missing at least one other person here) and some of us also had twins but lost one or both along the way. Makes me think there may be something to the idea that as a group we may be coming into this with at least some of us more "set" for both boys and twins.

I think it's mostly if not entirely bc, in general, most blue swayers are higher fertility and more likely to have twins in the first place bc of that, and/or age as many pink swayers are older. Probably a bit of both. I don't think it's due to swaying though.

My Ovulation Chart currently TTC, Cycle #16 since last BFP
TTC #1- swaying pink on & off since Nov 2013 - hoping for a girl first but excited for either!
Dec 2001 - May 2006 : 5 early abortions of healthy singletons (3 medical @5w, 2 surgical @8w, last 4 pregnancies conceived with late DH, all conceived while TTA/on birth control)
Mar 2012: miscarried B/G twins @5w (conceived 2 cycles after remověng Paraguard copper IUD while NTNP), one twin was ovarian ectopic
Me: 34, widowed, late O + short LP, normal-good hormone levels excepting undetectable testosterone, seeking a known sperm donor/life partner
My sway: vegetarian LE for over 28w, skipping breakfast, fibre (ground psyllium husks) with/before/between meals, physically inactive, drama avoidance, ocassional minimal YesBaby lube as needed, alternate cycles on low dose Clomid, double shot lattes (with meals)
Past sway tactics I've dropped (in order): Vitex, Sudafed, antihistamines, intermittent fasting, one attempt per cycle at positive OPK, one attempt in fertile period

Popping in to say I think conceiving quickly after a loss may have caused my twins. I didn't take clomid, don't think I have pcos, and have zero family history of them.
