Hey Guys. In a pooey mood coz I got my period this morning. According to my A-gender girl plan everything was just right for girl conception - ph, timing, energy, etc, but I do believe (as I feared) that the cranberry actually made me too acidic - maybe I had too much of the juice. There just wasn't enough EWCM there to sustain any sperm. I was shocked at how thick/gluggy the CM was immediately following O and immediately doubted a BFP despite my wishful thinking.
The only downer is now I have to wait 6 months to ovulate in a favourable girl energy period (according to the dates I have been given). Now I have to do the whole weigh up and ask myself 'is my desire for a baby girl stronger than my desire for a baby of either gender?' I think it is, but I really don't fancy putting off TTC til later in the year.... I love that my boys are close in age and I love carrying over winter and birthing in spring!! Oh, the dilemma....
I also just wanted to add that if you do the girl diet to make your ph more acidic it is imperative that you take probiotic supplements (friendly bacteria) everyday as being acidic increases your risk of UTI's and thrush. The probiotics will help to prevent this. Avail from fridge of your nearest health food store & must be kept in fridge!! Cranberry is good at preventing UTI's but nor thrush.
Nickers - I got the girl plan from A-Gender - not to be confused with In-Gender. A-Gender is an Aussie site and they are loads more comprehensive - plans include diet & supplement recommendations. Optimal dates can be purchased additionally.
