    Laying down after dtd question

    Does how long you lay down for after dtd matter? Like I know that jump and dump can sway a girl, but can laying down for a couple hours/all night increase your chances of baby being a boy even though you are only having the one shot in fertile window? Could keeping them all in increase the sperm count enough for one shot to sway boy?

    I did jump and dump after my one attempt when I got my girl, however my hubby and I are super fertile. I think atomic said when she got her girl she just laid down and went to sleep all night after DTD. When swaying it never comes down to one thing: diet, exercise, alcohol are not going to be outdone all because you didn't jump and dump. For less fertile couples, jump and dump too soon could drastically reduce conception chances. I don't know if it's quite black and white, KWIM?

    We do not have the data to know for sure.

    We did see in our stats a slight improvement in success rates with J and D either immediate or after 5 min. But that does not therefore mean you can't get a girl if you lay down longer. I got my daughter laying down all night with one attempt.

    Thanks Atomic. My last attempt was last Thursday so 4 days ago. At least I've roughly had one attempt in that case. Looks like I'm due to ovulate tomorrow x

    exactly. So much of this is individual, and what works for one person may not for another. Furthermore, what DOESN'T work for one, may work for another, if that makes sense...say a really superhumanly fertile couple gets preggo with J and D, well, they may be coming into it more "set" for blue in ways that are not visible to us looking in from the outside, and so another couple may do J and D and it helps them get their girl.

    Some people may be coming in to swaying as much as 80% likely to have a boy (since this seems like the upper limits we get with blue sways) and if swaying takes them to 60% likely to have a boy, that's still a HUGE sway, even though they're still more likely to have a boy at the end of it. So no one can really single out a tactic in isolation like that because we are all coming into this in a different place on the fertility continuum.

    I got a girl and two boys laying down after sex, this attempt idid the same. I think if your not in a rush to get pregnant you can play around with these ideas try j and d and see if it works, I needed to get pregnant quick as am old and was worried diet. And exercise might go out the window, the longer I was on it, testing tomorrow, nervoouuuusssss x
