Jen, The diet can be sooo tricky!! A few things off the top of my head, you will need a soy milk with NO calcium added but do not let DH drink it (I used to keep my mashed potato and white sauce separate to everyone elses), don't go over board with the salt, if it is too high you can kill off Y sperm. Have a couple of glasses of FRESH juice daily. If you don't like Vegemite, don't eat it Get some Yeast flakes from your health food store, add them to everything you can One of my fave meals was scambled eggs whites with tomato and capsicum (and yeast flakes), avocado on the toast and topped with alfalfa *YUM*

Well I tried the gender swaying on my last cycle but freaked out because I wasnt getting a positive OPK! So we just starting BDing. We didnt fall pregnant... I am not too sure what I want to do with this cycle. I do want to try and sway for a boy but I think I want to just get pg now and not risk taking forever to fall pg!
How do you get past this? How many cycles could it take until you are successful?! And then there is really no garantee that you have your boy even though you tried everything possible to sway that way....
I might go and have a read of the boy diet and see if there is anything I can add to my diet to help sway for the boy. You need to be on the diet for a lil while for it to have any effects hey?
Just thought I'd pop in here quickly to say hello and update. I got in touch with A-Gender in November (thanks Tanya) and got my girl plan. We had our first attempt this cycle and I am currently in the TWW. According to the girl energy dates that they gave me, January is the only month from Jan -June that I will ovulate in a strong girl energy period. So that makes me all the more eager for this attempt to be successful, although I have my doubts. I was surprised at how effective the cranberry was at drying up the CM - I had much less EWCM than usual. I am hoping that it will favour conception of a girl, but I am also a little worried as to whether the environment would have been too hostile for any sperm to survive! I still have to wait at least a week before I can test. Fingers are crossed but I am trying not to get my hopes up at the same time!
Ngala - there is heaps of info on the net about alkaline diets that will be of assistance to you in the conception of a boy. I would also check out the blog on the boy/girl energy period study on the A-Gender website - its pretty compelling.
Oh - and I got my ph test strips from my local health food store. They came in a pack of 100 which is pretty handy.
