TTC foods. When to eat them most.

[Lucey12]

I know avocados and pomegranates are good ttc foods, What else are good ttc foods and when is the best time to eat them? Is there any point in eating them during my period when Im not ovulating?

[Lucey12]

Its all the roll of the dice. As long as it has everything where it should be and functional, Ill be happy.

Well, just FYI I ate all the "to conceive a girl" type foods, and I've got a 16 month old boy.

[Lucey12]

In case anyone else is interested... I finally found some info on this. They dont know why this is but it turns out, women who eat these foods while ttc conceive have a greater change of conceiving boys or girls. (depending on what you eat)

To conceive a girl, eat:
breads, sweets, fruit

To conceive a boy, eat: high potassium foods (bananas mmmmm)
spicy foods, red meats

This doesnt mean eat only these things but lots of them. I dont know if I truly believe it but well see. Im eating all the spicy meat I can and lots of potassium.

HAaha Hard with a mother in law like mine lol Ie had alot of depression and stress but the last 2 weeks I have been happier beyond what I thought was possible. Oh and the stress of AF absent and negative preg tests AND hubby being gone all week long fro 2 months (home on weekends YAY)

idk say eat healthier. also avoid stressing cause it affects ovulation and your cycle. if I were you I would just act normal and let things happen

[Lucey12]

Huh. Good info. Thanks.

Brittny: Im going to post a questions about different theories on conceiving a boy or girl. Dont know if its possible for any to work but hubby wants a boy so Im going to do all the boy conception things and we'll see what I have.

Kiwis are good and contain folic acid, i was told stay away from Pineapple as it thins the cervics other than that i'm not sure

I was thinking about asking this same question and googling some info. I remember reading somewhere about diffrent foods to eat to try and change the PH balance to sway the sex of the baby. Not sure how exactly. I guess one type can live in more acidic then the other type.

Id go with eating it all the time, cant be bad and ovulation isnt always exactly 14 days after menstruation.
