We have 2 beautiful boys, would love a little girl to add to the family. Those who have tried the 'gender sway methods' what did you do and were they successful? Just to add, if it were not successful and we had another little boy then of course we would still be happy!

I have 2 boys and my 3rd was a girl. I was determined and tried Microsort and then IVF. Both didn't work. Also tried the silly shettles method as well with the boys. The only thing which worked for me and what conceived our daughter was drastic changes to my prenatal diet. I'm a nutritionist and did some research and found that if you eat a low salt, low potassium diet that is also high in calcium and magnesium for at least 30 days before you ovulate you increase your chances of conceiving a girl. I had to create my own diet and count the mg of salt and potassium. It was the strictest diet l've ever been on but so grateful I did.

After 6 ds's I had 2 dd's a year apart.. Both conceived after only dtd on day 23 of a 28 day cycle.. Both times Dp worked away that's how I am so certain!!. Careful what you wish for. 2 small dd's 15 months apart is lovely. Teen years not so much....

Shettles worked for us.

Thank you, looks like lots of research into it, I know the sex of the baby is determined by the man, so I suppose it may be worth looking at my husband diet too

It's impossible to choose the sex of your child when you conceive naturally :) even if you try lots of methods and the sex of your baby is what you hoped for, it will probably be the result of chance.
I had a stillborn baby recently, all we can wish for a mum is to leave the maternity ward with a healthy, and living baby !
Good luck !

I've heard female sperm live longer in the tubes, whereas the male sperm die quicker due to the acidity. So dtd b4 ovulation so the female sperm wait for the egg as soon as it's released! Probs wrong, but worth a try! 🤣✨️🩷🩵 good luck and have fun. 😉
