How much does stress affect a sway??

[Pray4blue]

Hiya ladies. I am swaying for a boy and missed my surge this month. So for about four days in my fertile week I was stressed that maybe I only ended up with one valid attempt and I really wanted to do more around a positive opk. Anyway turns out that I had enough attempts for blue.

I know stress around ovulation may sway pink but this ‘stress’ I had wasn’t very long lasting nor did I lose sleep over it. I ate a good HE diet and bd fine too. But I was obsessing over it and kicking myself for not testing more and kept trying to search the net for answers lol


So does this kind of four day stress affect a blue sway? Or is it the bigger long term stresses that sway? How valid a factor is stress in swaying anyway?

No, stress around ovulation doesn't sway pink. Only long periods of sustained stress over things that are totally out of our control might possibly sway. There is NO WAY that people can avoid stress sometimes day in and out. It's all good!

I stressed and obsessed both times I swayed pink about when I ovulated and how many attempts I'd had and I had two boys! If anything obsessing and wanting to control has only ever swayed blue for me so fx you get your sweet boy xx
