How we got our boys!

I didn't sway with either of my DS's.

First DS was def conceived on O day. DH & I DTD first time for the month on O day and I conceived.

DS2 was a surprise - not sure exactly when I was going to O but again, we only DTD once that month and it was def either the day or day before I was to O. (DH worked away from home that's why there wasn't much BD'g going on).

My diet was full of carbs, salt, sweets, caffeine. I did eat 'healthy' foods as in veggies/fruit with every meal but it did also consist of all the other baddies.
DH drinks LOADS of coffee - I won't even write how much as it's ridiculous and he showers in cold water. He never has hot showers, ever!!

After DTD, I layed there for a little while (not intentionally), approx 5m before going to the toilet to dump. Sorry, TMI.

Good luck for your blue bundles.

I didn't know about swaying with my son... we did everything we could to improve our chances of conception, which seems to mostly sway blue!

But I liked to have salty chips (fries) with baked beans for my lunch when I was hungry at work, really enjoy my salty roast potatoes with my Sunday lunch. I also snacked a lot while at work too.

I eat a fair bit of meat, and probably have 2 meals made from minced beef a week such as spag bol/lasagne/chilli/meatballs and would have meat of some sort with every main meal, took multivitamins and omega 3 supps to boost EWCM and my fertility. I also made sure I always had my 5 a day and generally healthy diet (with the exception of eating a lot of chocolate). I ate tomatoes almost every day as well and always had breakfast, too.

I always had a big O after DTD because I knew that would improve my conception chances and lay there for 30mins (or fell asleep) with bum raised.

I was starting my sway when I conceived DS, I felt like I was mainly too acidic so I started the baking soda drink twice a day for 2 months before anything else, because my diet has always been pretty boy heavy in my opinion, I was waiting on OPKs to come when I fell pregnant, and from my dates it looks like I conceived by DTD 5 days before O

Oh and I'll add that I would drink coke, iced tea, and my boy lemonade which was lemon juice+water+truvia sweetener it's supposed be really alkalyzingonce in the body and it doesn't have a nasty after taste or anything

I recently had a little boy and pretty much ate everything ... coffee , and toast for breakfast plus fruit for morning tea , ham salad sandwich for lunch usually steak and veggies for dinner ... I always had a glass of wine with dinner ... and not much dairy except in my coffee and I sometimes has a yoghurt in the morning . I was also taking multivitamins :)

Thank you for sharing your experience. It gives me hope. I'm trying to do the boy diet but sometimes I cheat. So when I read your experience, it feels great! Thanks.

I guess I also swayed without even realizing it :P. I was deinitely gaining weight when i conceived my son. I was eating high fat everything and was not watching sodium at all (I never have). I love ketchup and sauces of any kind. I don't shake salt on any of my food but now that I am swaying for a girl I see that its in almost everything that i ate. Was a big banana and cereal eater and never drank crystal light or aspertame of any kind. I actually worked hard to avoid it. Drank a lot of orange juice, tomato juice and eat sweet potatoes at least 3 times a week. Ate breakfast every morning and hardly any dairy as I am lactose intollerant. Love, love , love sugar and baked goods so ate this all the time. Not a big diet pop drinker. Didn't eat out much as I love to cook. Had lots of EWCM and BD'ed every other day and right through O. Hope this helps!

Awesome! Thanks for your input, ladies! QOQ, so happy to see you again! Did you have your son yet?

thanx for all the info everyone,very helpfull!

MommyD have a question for you, my sister is pregnant with her 3rd she has had no nausea so she is guessing that its going to be a boy.

Did you get nausea with any of your boys?
