my mum conceived my sister whilst she was still BF me (at around 6 months). I think the longer you BF for the less it sways and it only really sways pink when it is the main bulk of the baby's food.
I don't know anyone else who got pregnant whilst BFing a DD. Personally I conceived DS2 whilst swaying pink and BFing DS1 (who was then 13 months old and having just 3 feeds a day)

unfortunately they both move the same. It's impossible to pick out X and Y sperm by sight. If you could fertility clinics wouldn't bother with expensive PGD or techniques!
The ones that go in circles and the ones that go straight are simply different qualities of sperm motility-wise. The faster ones are ones which are either more motile (better quality) or at a further stage of maturation.

it's a bit odd... the abstract seems to say more males were born, yet the statistics in the tables below say more females
shame it's a study in rats, anyway, and not people.

even with ovulation tests, or if you feel ovulation twinges or cramps you can't know for sure when OV is without having scans (or using BBT temping and finding out 3 days later by which time you won't be fertile any more)
even OV twinges can occur before, during, OR after OV and you can't be certain which you're feeling.
some women OV 6hrs after a positive ovulation test, some 2-3 days after so...

the only problem with that is that not everyone goes straight back to their old cycle. The bleed you (might) get when you stop the pill isn't a real AF, it's a withdrawal bleed, and it can take time for your hormones to regulate enough to restart ovulation. Guessing when this would happen in order to start your 7-day abstain could be tricky. FR would be a better option, or what you're describing ...

swaying in general works. Timing has been disproved but there are SO many studies that show that diet and douching sway pink that you can't ignore them
baby aspirin is probably better than cranberry as it has less nutrients

coming off the pill might actually sway pink first month due to reduced androgens
if you don't want to calculate OV you'll be best off just DTD every day (avoiding big Os, and perhaps with jump+dump)

I know they're traditionally blue, but quite a few people I know are using them as part of a pink sway.
Has anyone on here tried this and what was the outcome?
Obviously the sway would include antihistamine to dry up any EWCM, and aspirin/douches to lower pH of any EWCM left.

thank you for all the guesses :)
surprised at the number of 50-50 guesses on here! elsewhere where I've posted this I've had maybe three or four 50-50 guesses out of 20 guesses in total

I have 3 pictures, I think you can see the nub in all of them (baby had legs crossed and kept bringing them up to the chest so think the white line at the base of the legs can't be part of the leg because both legs were together)
will figure out how to add the others

lol don't worry, I did think it was a bit of a risk seeing as there is no obvious nub.,.. but we honestly didn't even see the nub on the scan and I was looking!!

I was thinking there could be a faint boy nub there too

thank you for taking the time to reply so far, here's the rest of the pictures, but don't think they show anything extra in that "area":http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/5319/jellybean2.jpg

it's not the best picture as I'm not even sure if you can see a "nub" on it... but it's the only full-body length picture I have so any ideas? I love my little one already regardles [love] ETA: direct link in case that picture doesn't show: http://img340.imageshack.us/img340/6196/jellybean.pngFrom the start I've felt "girl", but my mum was certain I was a boy throughout and was wrong!
