diet and 2ww
ive been reading that some ppl continue the boy diet in 2ww..why? once the embryo is formed thats IT! boy or girl.
is it just to wean slowly OFF the diet? bc its not like the diet would "nurture" the boy parts and avoid changing him into a girl right?

I think its so that your body has steady siganls for blue incase of a bfn. If one week your high protein and the next week your back to sugary carbs or whatever your pre sway diet was then it sends mixed signals. Plus a blue bean needs steadt glucose levels not fluctuating, I think?

I would stay on it until BFP. You are trying to keep your body in a specific state and if you go off it for 2 weeks you are not keeping yourself in that state IF you do need to try again.

It's better to look back on life and say: "I can't believe I did that" than to look back and say "I wish I did that".

Actually it's quite important to stay on the diet during the 2WW because XY fertilized eggs need steady and even glucose levels in the CM in order to develop and implant properly in the uterus. XY does not grow as well in lower glucose environments.
Also, if you don't get a BFP, you will undo a lot of the good you did during those 2 weeks!!!!! Questions?? Check out the NEW and improved Complete Index !!!

okay got it now. so its mostly for implantation and if that doesnt occur to maintain whatever levels of hormones/minerals you have to try again the next cycle. so is it best then to gradual wean yourself off the diet AFTER BFP..or should we stay on longer?? or okay to immediately stop after bfp? i guess a gradual wean would be best, right?

A gradual wean is better in terms of blood sugar, but I do think you need to add back in dairy and cut back on sodium IMMEDIATELY upon getting a BFP because it is not good for you or baby to be eating that way when pg.
