My name is Heather and I am a proud wife and mother of four boys. Three of which are step-sons. would been 6 kids but my husband and I lost two babies in the past two years of trying. I'm 23 and he is 32 years old. We are from a small town in Ky, and moved to Houston 2 years ago. I have had 5 Open Heart Surgeries and hypothyroidism and we are hoping this time around will be nothing but great success. Accordin to all the calculations I ovulate on Dec 12, 2012. So we read that the male sperm lives for a cpl hrs and the female lives for 72 hrs and that if we want to "try" to have a girl to try three days before the ovulation date, so Hopefully the 9th worked. Says that on the 12th I ovulated, the 17th it will be implanted, and the 27th is when I can take a positive test. Fingers crossed ladies!!
