MFC, on the lignan question I was googling around and found this (from http://www.flaxrd.com/FAQS.htm)
Flax oil, regardless if it is regular or high-lignan, contains only the oil portion from the seed. It does not contain protein, lignans, fiber, and any other substances from the seed. It goes on to mention there are high-lignan oils, but that there is no standard for measuring the amount of lignans so no means of verifying the claims. So from this, it would appear flax seed oil is lignan free?
Yes ma'am, talking about FNS! Was so in love with her whole birth story too, totally heartwarming. We are not finding out ... DH's choice, really ... he's always wanted a surprise and this will be our last child. So since I've gotten to find out with 2, I'm letting him have this one. That said ... I've been debating finding out anyway and just not telling him that I did ;) I am NOT made for this wait-and-see business! And honestly, I don't want to spend the rest of my last pregnancy wondering about it. It isn't fun to me. At all. I think I will be OK if I hear girl so we'll see .... I might find out :) I wouldn't tell a soul IRL but will of course fess up here!
can I ask too? lol You posted that you got a +opk on the 24th and you bd on the 21st morning and night. So that is not a 2 day cutoff right? It's 3 or more because we O after +opk?
So how come you where scared of o+12? maybe im not reading this good...
Anyway no bd on O day and look like you having a boy so more hope for me:p
Well, the lignans are part of the flaxseed itself and not an additional ingredient, so I am not certain that they would be listed.
If you want to take flaxseed and it's working for you, by all means don't let me stop you! I'm just trying to find out why it is some people's CM is not working when they take it.
I think she is saying "cut off" in the way it is sometimes used by blue swayers, meaning that they DTD every 2 days and no more frequently than that (so DH was "cut off" from sex more often than that). And not referring to "cut off" like a Shettles cutoff. So then she began to DTD every 2 days starting on the 21st...Right?
We did it every 2 days too. I was just interested how many day before O was the last lol because we had 4 and 2 days before and nothing on O day.
