    Ah too bad. Oh well!

    It doesn't matter anyways for me, I really think 4 boys is pretty special too. So as long as I get a healthy bean it's a win-win.
    Me (38) and DH (38)

    SAHM military momma to DS1 (2004), DS2 (who's all boy but loves to dance, though not in a tutu!) (2006), DS3 (2009), and our rainbow baby girl DD1 (2017)

    early m/c Jan 2013

    Cycle #1 @ HRC (Oct 2014) - 6 retrieved, 4 mature, 3 fertilized and biopsied. 1XX and 1XY abnormal. 1XX no DNA found, rebiopsied and found normal, frozen.
    FET attempt #1 (Nov 2014) - cancelled due to functional cyst. FET attempt #2 (Jan 30, 2015) - NT. Remaining embie failed to thaw.

    May 2015 - started infertility treatments at OFC. Femara 2.5mg
    July 2015 - BFP after second round of Femara. Aug 4 2015 - 6w4d
    Dec 21 2015 - mmc 7w1d

    Apr 2016 - IVF Cycle #2. Converted to IUI because of uneven response and leading follicles.
    Apr 19, 2016 - IUI with 3 mature follicles (2 right, 1 left), post wash: 17mil, 94% motility and 89% rapid motility. BFN.

    June 3, 2016 - 5mg Femara cycle. 5w.
    Sep 1, 2016 - 5mg Femara cycle. 8w.

    Our rainbow baby girl arrived on Mon Aug 28, 2017 - "After every storm comes a rainbow". We are so thankful and grateful for every moment.

    Thanks everyone. It's interesting to hear different experiences, I'm not convinced mc sways pink though. I'm now 17 days after ERPC and no sign of ov. I stopped pre-natal vitamins two days after the procedure and am only taking folic acid 2000 micrograms now plus fibre. I've been back on LE for a couple of weeks, not lost any weight yet though.
    I just want to be pregnant again so badly, but I'll regret not giving swaying a good shot, especially when I felt my last sway was strong. I veer from thinking I lost the only daughter I'll ever have, to thinking I surely deserve a girl after pregnancy, miscarriage, not taking any supps to boost me after the loss, being much more laid back about swaying now, going back on LE and still being half a stone lighter than when I conceived DS2. I know "deserving" a DD means nothing though, it doesn't work like that unfortunately .
    What would you do? Attempt when/if I get a +opk or wait till after AF has returned to be on LE longer?

    On paper, I believe that biologically miscarriage sways pink. It is not the type of fertility boost that sways blue. It depletes your body of resources and messes up your cycle and both of those things sway pink. I agree with Sugar that early losses probably sway less than later ones. Is it a magic bullet, no it is not. Nothing is.

    Just as with Clomid, you can't do a casual survey of people you know IRL and online and really tell about how losses may sway. Some people do a lot of fertility-boosting stuff that could sway blue, some people can't get pg for several months after a miscarriage at which point any benefits are probably lost, and it may very well be the case that those people who are easily capable of bouncing back to get pg the cycle after a miscarriage, are more boy-friendly to begin with and are thus able to shake off the loss and conceive boys right away.

    Swaying is NOT a light switch where if you know 3, 23, or 323 people who conceived a boy after a miscarriage that it then indicates miscarriage sways blue. If something sways pink by 5%, that is a heck of a sway but still a heck of a lot of boys will still be conceived.

    I think it is ~likely~ the first few cycles but I only want people to rely on the first for swaying. The further along you are, the longer it may sway.

    Hi Emmy - my dr told me to wait until after my 1st AF so I am anxiously still waiting...will be 28 days tomorrow. Hopefully any day now, BUT many have TTC before that with great success. I also am doing what I can to sway boy, so for me waiting through 1st AF is prob a good thing. I would say GO FOR IT when you get your positive OPK. I hope you are feeling well!
