Our Girl Attempt Starts Now

We had a perfect baby boy on 08/18/08 but as time has passed by we both have become very excited at the idea of having a girl as well. At first I did feel so desperate to have only a girl(because we don't want too many kids) that I only wanted to do high tech, but as time has gone by, I feel giving a good At home sway attempt can give us a good chance, so here we are. This is our first month trying for #2. I got my IUD out on 08/31/09 I'm 31 and DH is 29.

 ~My period started on 09/02/09 so once that was over we have been BDing everyday. ~I am checking my ovulation twice a day with OPK and it should be coming extremely soon. I have the signs, cm and all that. ~Since 09/01/09 we have both been on the girl diet, not very strictly, however it feels very strict because it just so happens our normal diet is very much like the BOY diet! lol ~We have both been taking calcium and magnisium, and I've been taking a folic acid as well. ~He's been wearing Tightie Whities(but in more stylish dark colors! Stick out tongue ) ~Missionary position/shallow penetration no female big O

BD time is seriously lacking during this time. We are doing it much more often then before, but its so boring compared to before. I told DH that once I get pregnant, we are doing all kinds of positions and I am definately getting tons of big Os! lol

 We do so badly want a girl, however for self preservation I tell myself how cute it would be for Liam to have a brother, and we will give him a completely different bedroom decor, etc. SO I hope I won't be depressed if it comes out that way. But oh for a girl. Dresses. Pink. Pink and brown! Ribbons and bows and dainty things. Playing dress up. I really want all the things that come with having a girl. and having a minature me would be adorable. Seeing everyone gush about how much DH looks like DS all the time makes me want that too. But even if she looks like Him in a dress, she will still be the prettiest girl ever to me.

 I will probably write randomly about life during this time, feel free to read, comment, whatever. Happy I've attatched some pictures incase you'd like to put a face to the story during our Journey. (sorry if they are annoyingly large, I tried to size them down but it didn't look like it worked) Thanks for reading.

Hi there! When I got pregnant with my first child, although I thought it would be a girl, I was thrilled it was a boy. I knew my husband, like most men wanted a boy so I felt so relieved to make him happy, my intention was to only have one, but as time has gone by, I really want a girl too! For a while I was so scared to try because I was afraid it might be a boy, but I think now, much from the help of reading all the forums here, I think I would be ok with two boys, The gender disappointment forum really helped me come to terms with that in advance(which I think is healthier than coming to terms with it in the moment) so if Liam gets a little brother that is ok, but, I desperately do want a girl too! I would be willing to have three to make it happen, and microsort the third, but if its a girl this time around, I'll stop at two! :) I'm getting my IUD out on monday 08/31/09, and I am going to wait one practice cycle (sept) then go full force into shettles and the girl diet, as best I can with my knowledge, I haven't found an 'exact' sample diet, just, eat more of this, less of this etc. so I am going to try my best. I have read the shettles book, and it seems promising. If you tried shettles and got what you wanted or didn't, please let me know :) Thanks for listening to me gab :) ............So, 4 months later, I threw shettle out the window and concentrated on the diet and supplements. I took soy for the month of dec and got pregnant the 1st round on soy! We are thrilled! Now to find out if its a girl or a boy....hummm..it's a boy! Ian was born 08/28/10 8 pds 7 ozs 20 3/4 inches
