Hello Atomic,
I didn't expect to report here again. But after 2.5 years and countless cycles of TTC, as well as 3 inseminations and 2 ICSI, I unexpectedly had a BFP a few weeks ago. I'm in the 7th week of pregnancy. We could already see the heartbeat. The baby was conceived without medical assistance. I wouldn't have expected that. I thought I would never get pregnant again. Now we are of course very happy that this surprising miracle has found its way to us. But since it's a surprise, I didn't do any pink sway. After this long time, I desperately want a second child, even if it is a second boy. Still, I hope that somehow luck will be on our side and give us a little girl.
In the months before conception I actually did regular exercise. in January, February and March I actually did exercise quite often (5-6 days per week), mainly going for a walk, but often not for a whole hour at a time, but several small exercises spread throughout the day. I averaged 12,000 steps per day. In April I did almost nothing (exercises only 1-2 times a week or less). Conception was in mid-April. I didn't go on a diet. I haven't lost or gained any weight in the last few months, although I did gain a few kilos in the fall last year (from about 53 kg to 57 kg), but I've been maintaining this weight since November/December. I've been eating about 1800 calories a day for the past few months, some days less, some days more. However, I always skipped breakfast. Unfortunately, I didn't drink any coffee or alcohol.
Until the middle of March I was taking a lot of supplements and vitamins because of our embryo transfer in February. After this one was a BFN I stopped taking vitamins. The last time I took Femara was in February, before the transfer of our embryo, which was a BFN.
We had 2 attempts in the fertile window. Coincidentally, it was in the rhythm of the e4D (Tuesday and Friday, ovulation was probably on Saturday). In addition, I was very sick during the conception period, I had tonsillitis and took antibiotics.
What do you think my chances are for a girl? I didn't do any sway, didn't pay any conscious attention to anything, because after such a long time (2.5 years) I no longer expected conception. Do you think my chances are simply 50/50 or did I subconsciously sway pink or blue?
A girl would be so great! Please keep your fingers crossed for me!
But a boy is also OK and will be loved with all our hearts.

Oh gosh, that's wonderful news! I am so happy for you! My fingers and toes are crossed for pink, but most of all for a healthy pregnancy and safe and easy delivery!
The truth is, I can't tell anyone what their chances are of a boy or girl. I just can't know that, and I don't feel comfortable making up numbers that are not based in reality beyond just my gut instinct. You did a lot of pink friendly stuff, but in terms of mathematical odds, I just truly can't say.
Wishing you all the best for this unexpected addition and in your life!
