THANK YOU Atomic!!! My clomid sway WORKED, baby GIRL born 2 weeks ago!! :) :)
I don't know if any of you remember me, I was on here all the time last year, swaying my butt off. Swayed hard for about 8 or 9 months (doing low nutrient, vegetarian, skipping breakfast etc), then tried clomid in Oct and got PG first try on O day. Ended up PG with twins, but sadly one didn't make it past 8.5 weeks.
I was on a due date PG thread on here for a few weeks but it got to be too stressful for me, so I left GD site for the remainder of my PG. We decided to stay Team Green this PG since it was going to be our last PG no matter what (I turned 40 6 months ago). Our first 4 kids are boys (1 is deceased).
2 weeks ago we went in for our scheduled C-section. I had bought gender neutral stuff/baby clothes that leaned boy because I really thought it would be another boy. When doc pulled baby out, he told us to open the "window" in the drape and held HER up to it, OMG!!!! I was in such shock!! My hubby goes "OMG the baby has a vagina!!!!" LOL. We were both in total shock. Baby is beautiful and awesome, and her big brothers are in love with her.
My family is complete, I am so happy! Thank you Atomic for all the support!!!

Wow!!!! Congrats!!!!
You must be so happy...
Im sorry about your son , mustve been so difficult
I related to your story quite a bit.. ive got 3 boys, swaying for girl and we are definitely going team green once pregnant.
Im taking Femara for swaying purposes only.
I dont know if reading all these succesful sways will be quite stressful once birthdate is getting near so maybe I’ll be a bit absent those months..
Any other sway details you can share??
Thanks!

Thank you!
Yes, we lost one of our sons a few years ago, it was the worst time in my life. I've done a lot of healing but it's definitely something that never goes away.
I totally recommend going Team Green. I felt so peaceful this PG, and surprisingly felt *prepared* for another boy by the end. I never went Team Green before but am glad I did, and the surprise was so worth it.
I love this site, but like I said, I did leave here for most of my PG so I wouldn't constantly be comparing myself to others' PG's and stress myself out. I also got off social media almost 2 years ago and that helped a lot too. Do what you need to.
My sway was long but not as strict as some. I did vegetarian, but still had occasional fish or seafood. I also did PCOS LE because although I don't have pcos, I have pcos tendencies (very high AFC and AMH, as well as extremely oily skin etc). For the first few months I wasn't very strict but got a lot stricter during the last 4 months of swaying, dropping all sweets/sugar and starting to skip breakfast and drink coffee every day. The last 4 months are also when I dropped a lot of weight!! I didn't do any supplements or anything else special except take clomid once, the month we conceived. We DTD the day of positive OPK and that was it.

Thank you so much Atomic!!! I really appreciate all the emotional support too that you gave me, and you gave me hope too that a 40+ could have a DD, esp after 4 (awesome) boys (like you!).

Atomic, this may sound crazy but I’ve been reading about moon phases… I have a ‘red moon cycle’ currently which I didn’t used to have. Meaning my period is coinciding with the full moon. From...
