To go with the other one...

How well did you do the diet when you conceived a child that was opposite what you were swaying for?

10-- Perfect all the way. No cheating. Everything was 100% off the girl/boy diet for 6-8 weeks before sway. No breaks even in the 2ww.

9-- Perfect all the way. No cheating. Everything 100% etc but took a small break during 2ww.

8-- Did everything by the book but cheated just slightly once before O.

7-- Did the diet according to plan but cheated a few time, "cheat" foods were none of the major no-nos. 

6--  Did the diet well most of the time but had several instances of eating foods off the diet. 

5-- Avoided all the major no-nos but could only call the diet modified at best.

4-- Avoided major no-nos most of the time but for the most part ate normally.

3-- Pretty much ate whatever I wanted but my diet leans girly/boyish (towards DG) anyway.

2-- Ate whatever I wanted without regard to a gender diet.

1-- Ate whatever I wanted and my diet leans girly/boyish (towards the opposite of DG).

Since I didnt get a chance to sway I ate what ever I wanted, and I like the "boy" foods a lot more. I am having a girl.

Forgive me, I just want to clarify. You did perfect all the way no cheating but your sway was unsuccessful?

As a parent, my boys are my world and my attempting to TTC pink was not a reflection on them or the love I have for them, I simply ached for a daughter to complete our family!!  However after 10 months I'm ready for my 3rd and final child NOW!!  I just want to be pregnant.  Swaying just didn't work for us, which makes me sad, but I'm glad we tried.  I'm scared I can't have a baby at all and that is the most important thing now, a healthy pregnancy and birth of my last child.

Cycle 11 BFP @ 11/12dpo, EDD 20th June 2011 - Stick baby, please!!
Our little angel babies, gone forever but loved and always part of our family ...
Cycle 8
BFP @ 14dpo, EDD 20th March 2011. Ended in m/c at 5 weeks.  Our little poppyseed.
Cycle 6 BFP @ 14dpo, EDD 21st January 2011.  Ended in m/c at 4wks4dys.  Our little crumb.
Onto Cycle 10 ... in the 2ww @ 30/08/10 - 2nd cycle after 2nd m/c.  Can't believe where this journey has taken me.  Never imagined I'd not be pg by now and have 2 mc's too.  I will sway this month because I cannot let go of the dream just yet.  However, I really want to be holding my baby in my arms next summer and time is running out.  Come on sticky bean, this is our month.  Let's hope it's a pink one!! Hearts

Cycle 8 ... to sway or not to sway .... ???  Maybe a TTC break is needed?!  Ended up doing a partial sway, it was all I could manage in the end! Ended in mc Heartbroken
 Cycle 6!?!  How can that be?  I fell so easily with both ds's.  I didn't expect to fall straight away, but to be on my 6th cycle is totally unexpected.  I think this will be our last month of swaying as I really want to be pregnant now and am worried we somehow aren't going to manage that.  16/04/10 Ended in mc Heartbroken

I also only "cheated" during the 2 ww.. and even that I didn't eat much that was not included on the diet.. may have been more veggies if anything.. I don't eat read meat or salty foods anyway. We are having DS3. I still ate tons of the yogurt, nutrasweet etc.. I just cut out cranberry juice and cranberry suppliments since I read that could cause a miscarriage.

 I did the diet but we did cheat during AF- and I stayed away from the no no foods.  However-if you read my sway - when we dtd I had an Orgasim which is a BIg no no - and I did every time as I never did with my boys and did opposite with boys- plus I drank coffee and its says not to drink coffee- but with my boys I hated coffee.  lol. 

I am expecting my 1st girl.
