No, I'm afraid that timing does not sway and X sperms do not swim slower than Y (you have that backwards anyway)
Those theories have been debunked genderdreaming.com/forum/gender-swaying-general-discussion/7691-trouble-timing.html
Also, even IF timing worked it has nothing to do with implantation.
Vitamins absolutely can help people sway blue.

Hi atomic, I'm just wondering when (or if) i should drop down from the 2000mg folate? I'm still taking it and a multi vit and omega. I'm phasing out the q10. I am approx 5 weeks pregnant.
I asked my consultant about taking folate and he advised just to take standard folic acid (i think is 400mg)
I am happy to continue taking the folate as you advised but wondering when I should drop down quantity etc?
Thanks in advance.

Not till the end of the first trimester.
NO, don't take folic acid. Folate is better for everyone.
Take till end of first trimester and then gradually wean off by spacing doses further and furhter out till down to one per week, then you can drop them.

Hi atomic - so continue taking them all for first trimester? And then start spacing to wean off them all including folate? So how long roughly should it take me to wean off them? (Sorry this is probably really obvious to u but im lost and just want to make sure I do everything I can to get this baby to term ) thanks!

I'm sorry, I interpreted your question to be solely about the folate.
Omega 3, multivitamin, and Vit. D are fine to continue. As are probiotics if you are taking them. All through pregnancy and they are all beneficial
You should wean off the coq10 at BFP which you are alrady doing
Wait till end of first tri to wean off the folate. Then start spacing doses further and further out till down to one per week then drop them (you'll still be taking whatever is in your multivitamin). This should take about 3-4 weeks.

I bought two bottles of "folate" and it just says "active ingredient folic acis". Did i buy the wrong one?

Yes I'm sorry that's the wrong thing, you need it to say just "folate" and not have "folic acid" anywhere on the bottle.
Tricky vitamin company!
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...
