    DIET
    Did you follow a diet plan?
    Yes
    If yes to diet, which one did you most follow?

    HE(High Everything)

    Comments regarding DW's diet changes-
    A massive change from my diet when I conceived either of my daughters – I stopped/cut down coffee (drank black tea with milk), ate much more and much more nutritious foods , snacked to keep BS levels stable. I was pretty much vegetarian and with the diet had way more protein esp. from animal sources (red meat as much as I could bear). We were both drinking a can of coconut water pretty much daily, bananas daily, lots of nuts/dried fruits, wholegrain foods, lots of good fats and veg/fruit – I truly think we bettered our diet massively!
    I drank loads of lemon water and added eggs where I could, and ate yogurt daily (all dairy was full fat).

    If diet was used, length of time before attempt?
    16 weeks of full on diet (I did start making gradual changes from January)
    Did you skip breakfast regularly?
    No – at worse, it would be delayed if running short on time
    Did DH change his diet with you?
    To some extent – I tried increasing his protein intake
    Comments regarding DH's diet-
    Couldn’t get him to take time for breakfast so that was hard
    Did you consume alcohol?
    No
    DId you try to limit caffeine?
    Yes, I limited my intake and the month of the BFP I had basically none

    Any Diet Details?
    Always grazing, feeling full, wouldn’t let myself go hungry (and if I had a niggle of hunger I would immediately pop a few almonds to munch on at least)
    Any Diet Comments/Additional Info?
    /

    WEIGHT AND EXERCISE
    What did you weigh/BMI do leading up to O?
    My BMI still is on the low side (19-20 ish?) and my scale is broken but pretty sure I put on a few kilos
    Any Weight/Exercise related additional info/comments?
    Not really any exercise, just too plain tired after work – did walk as much as possible – and during the WEs we always walk a fair bit and keep active with the girls

    THINGS in VG and CONCEPTION DATE(CD) INFO
    pH Before Starting a Sway Program, if known
    /
    Any VG potions used?
    /

    CM pH at attempt
    ?
    DH pH
    ?
    THE DEED INFO
    How many BD attempts did you make for the BFP cycle?
    3
    BD Pattern
    We essentially tried to follow the SMEP pattern

    BD Dates according to Ovulation
    2 Days Before O (am)
    1 Days Before O (pm of pod opk)
    O day (pm)

    BD Position
    Multiple
    Any additional comments?
    Preseed with the last 2 attempts
    Big O with all BD bar one
    Any relevant attempt details?
    Definitely an increase in our BD numbers the BFP cycle
    Did you do anything with Ions?

    I sit at a computer all day at work, does that count? I use my tablet on my lap a fair bit otherwise
    Moon Phase during conception?
    ?
    Did you use any Old Wives Tales?
    Had a boy onesie in my pillowcase

    Things that make me feel great about my sway:
    The HE diet clearly made a drastic change to my fertility – after taking literally years and medicated cycles to conceive each of our girls, falling pregnant so quickly (the 2 1st cycles were “tests’ in my view as we were adjusting and didn’t do our true best then) for me is a testament to what the diet did to my body! My AF started arriving in the am for the first time ever before we started ttc just with the diet changes….not sure it means anything but it is still worth noting in my books!
    We had a great BD pattern, my fertility was increased, so was my overall condition – so that in itself makes me happy!

    Things that make me nervous about my sway:
    Exercise – I wish I could have found the strength to get some formal weights in there (though DD2 being a clingy koala, I get a work out of sorts ^^)…DH was a bit slack too!

    Things worth mentioning:

    Our sway didn’t work for #3 & we had a little oops for #4 but we love them all to bits... not sure if we ever will but somehow hoping we might add blue to the crew, to complete our family, one day...

    Fingers crossed for TTC #5 (again) for early 2024!

    Thanks ladies!
    Am so grateful for having found this site and all it's wonderful people, I seriously doubt I would have fallen pregnant so fast, if at all, without all the great advice and support here
