Hi girls, we weren't TTC this time, but from a timing POV we've done exactly the right thing for a blue one this time. (Although we did that last time too...). I wonder what coming off such a run of illness did to my internal balance.
This one was clearly meant to be, but interested to see if my boy feelings this time might be right.
Oh goodness no, as soon as I have the scan we'll tell everyone! Only 8 wks in atm.
Our 12 wk u/s with DD2 did (correctly) indicate probably going to be a girl (place was doing an early gender prediction study), so maybe we will get an idea in a month.
Looks like it worked for us, we have been told we are having a pink one!! And I've had two scans just to be sure
I got the info off Gender dreaming, but too be honest it was very overwhelming so I don't think we followed it as much as some others do. We we taking lots of cranberry tabs, calcium and magnesium. But we were doing all of this, fell pregnant and lost that bubba, so when we were ttc this one we weren't taking any of it. I just wanted to be pregnant. So maybe it was timing of dtd or maybe there was still some of the vitamins in our systems.
We are going to be trying for a little girl, and yes I have looked at gender dream just so much information and so hard to know what to follow and what not too... I have to correct my hormones first :/ which is just one more thing to add to the pile.
It's hard to know what information I am to follow, what to get DH to follow and what to ignore... I know timing is important but I'm a firm believer that the environment also plays a big part... looked briefly at the blue package requirements and that is my life to a T... and I have three boys... so it's a complete lifestyle change while we try... so much information and only so much will fit in and around everything else that my poor mind has to deal with...
Omg! Jen!!!!!! Hahahah! Woohoo! We are gonna ttc a boy in August! Woohoo for you! I hope you succeed! Do you normally find out? Weeeeeee! So excited for you!
So we are gearing up for a bit of ttc and want a little boy to brighten our lives as we have two gorgeous little girls. I won't be devastated if it doesn't work, but I would love a little boy. There are 6 grandies for my parents and all of them are girls. We want to start to ttc in August I think. But yeah.... Just wondering what methods people suggest? Shettles?? Want to buy an ovacue to help if we go that way, but also interested in ph etc and diets. Anyone?
Good luck, Bella! We used an ovulation kit when TTC DD2. Worked - we fell pg immediately. No good for us on the gender swaying, but we're a tough case.
Lol! I was trying to work it out from my 12 week u/s, even tho I told them not to tell me. And I never did find out, with either. Not sure if I would with the next pregnancy....
In other news, mima asked me today if I could have a third baby. I asked did she want me to and she was adamant that she did! "Yes please mum!". "I want three babies!!" So I have told her we are thinking about it and will let her know if we get to have another baby. . Just a bit cute.
Afm, I am 9dpo atm. Testing in the morning!! I tested today and there was maybe a very faint pink line. But only if you held it in the right light and looked at it with a squint! Lol!! Dh said it was negative, lol!! Never mind! I am on holidays and one more day to drink cider in the uk excuse for summer is a bonus
Hi Jennifer, we have two boys and are going to be soon trying for our 3rd bubba (again, miscarriage about a month ago) so we are taking some supplements and will just use the timing method.
I can't believe how much info is out there it's all a bit much really! But really we want 3 babies and I don't mind who we get but I'll try a little for a pink one
Ladybug I found a forum dedicated to gender swaying called "gender dreaming". Those girls have it down to a science!! I had heaps of little things I could try to add to my sway. No idea if it was successful, but I am so tempted to find out. I have an nt scan next week. I might just ask for a clear nub shot if possible and we can try to guess for ourselves. I have never found out before. But hubby and I are struggling to contain the desire to know this time.
