Tamara or anyone else who may know...

Happy Easter! I just read an old sway attempt that mentioned how this mom used her microscope to see the difference in numbers of girl sperm in abstinence vs. frequent BD. Is this truly possible to do? I've seen the numbers with my own husband in abstinence vs. frequent, but I don't think there's anyway I could tell the difference in boy vs. girl. Thanks for any info you can offer!

Hi Sway Sister, Happy Easter! I think this is a great question. I have read in other posts that the boy sperm are straight swimmers and the girl sperm are circle swimmers. So I guess that's how you can tell under a microscope. But then I read in a different post that you can’t see for sure if a sperm is girl or boy under a microscope. I'm curious about what Tamara thinks. It would be great, especially for TBM, if you really could tell for sure with a microscope and you would know that you have mostly boys or mostly girls.

Ahhhhh!!!! I didn't even think about the straight and circle swimmers thing!!

Although, you know...there are just SO many swimmers, I'm not sure I'll be able to distinguish who is just bumping into each other and who is truly swimming in circles. LOL.

I did check them again and with frequent release, it seems to be getting the numbers down! Now I need to look for the circle vs. straight  (Added *TMI* bonus, I use lavender lotion when I "help" him. LOL)

Thanks, sway sister! I hope and your guys had a great day! Happy Easter to you all! :)

Could you tell me which microscope you are using? I'm debating purchasing one...TY!

correct not all strait swimmers are boys and circles girls.  So a lab can not just pick those out and think they will get the gender they want.  However a majorityof the circles are x and a mmajorityof strait are y.  And with the use of hate7 sway factors your body (and dh's) help to up your odds of the right one make it.

Thanks Tamara! At least it kinda gives us something else to look for under the microscope!

Hi BeadinBabe! This is something you might want to read if you are doing research under microscope. GL!
