My failed boy sway
I love and adore our baby and have since knowing I was pregnant, but there was still a part of me that wished I was successful in my sway. I wanted to share the details so you all had some stats.
- I was eating a HE diet since early 2019 when I was TTC with my first. It ended in a loss (was a girl as well).
- I waited 3-4 months before trying again, and during that time i RETAINED my pregnancy weight (up 6kg since 2017!) That's a lot for me, since I started off being slightly underweight.
- I switched from being vegetarian to full meat-eater when TTC with my first.
- I ate meat twice a day at least, even if I didn't want to eat. I was never hungry during the day.
- 1 coffee a day, full cream milk (switched from non-dairy)
- Light cardio everyday (30-40 mins) and twice a week did weights.
FREQUENCY
- Did Sperm Meet Egg timing, which was done perfectly because afterwards when we confirmed conception date, I checked the timing and it was as boy-friendly as possible.

I'm sorry, I've joined this club too and it sucks the odds weren't in our favor.

Husband ate meat, cardio everyday, very lean and muscular. Non-desk job but not hazardous.

Thanks Atomic. Perhaps a baby girl will help me heal from our first loss too.
Do you have a link why your site attracts more girl swayers?

My thoughts are with you Shiro, sorry this was not your desired boy. Be kind to yourself while you are adjusting to the news, you will get to a good place.

I'd really love to hear more amazing stories about mums and their daughters! It's the only thing that's making me feel better.
Hello, Atomic hopefully you will see this! It has definitely been a while. I am not TTC, my cycles have been MIA for over a year, I'm quite certain. I have not been charting but haven't had it....
Not sure where to ask not TTC
