    Did you purchase and follow a GD Personalized Plan?
    Yes
    DIET
    Did you follow a diet plan?
    Yes
    If yes to diet, which one did you most follow?
    • LE(Low Everything)


    Comments regarding DW's diet changes-
    Ate only LE foods - lots of matzo with cheese and mushrooms (my fav!), crisps and rice cakes. Plenty of white foods as well - mainly carbs to get some source of energy. NO snacking whatsoever and always skipped breakfast!
    If diet was used, length of time before attempt?
    Actually been on LE diet for a VERY long time (since January 2013!) as was waiting for AF after the birth of DS2. Lost a lot of weight and had everyone thinking I was anorexic! Finally AF returned May 2014 but by then I had become quite relaxed in what I ate, stopped using MFP and even reintroduced meat (not red meat) once in a while.

    This was to get my protein levels up in the hopes AF would return and my weight loss was not the reason she stayed away for 21 MONTHS!
    Did you skip breakfast regularly?
    Yes
    Did DH change his diet with you?
    No
    Comments regarding DH's diet-
    He ate what I cooked at home (still cooked meat or Quorn option) but couldn't control what he did for his lunch at work.
    DId you consume alcohol?
    • Often- daily


    DId you try to limit caffeine?
    Yes, I had 1 drink per day
    Any Diet Details?
    I did MY version of LE towards the end and stuck to the NO breakfast or snacking rules but being on it for over a year I became very relaxed.

    To appease people's worries that I was becoming anorexic I made sure to eat well in social situations.
    Any Diet Comments/Additional Info?
    -
    WEIGHT AND EXERCISE
    What did you weigh/BMI do leading up to O?
    Started off at 63 kgs and LE took me down to 44 kgs which I maintained up until my BFP.
    Any Weight/Exercise related additional info/comments?
    When AF returned in May I decided, as diet was so relaxed, to add exercise to my sway so I rode the bike in the gym for an hour 5/6 days a week.
    THINGS in VG and CONCEPTION DATE(CD) INFO
    pH Before Starting a Sway Program, if known
    -
    Any VG potions used?
    • NO


    CM pH at attempt
    -
    DH pH
    -
    How many BD attempts did you make for the BFP cycle?
    1

    THE DEED INFO
    DH Info about Swimmers
    • BD every few days


    BD Position
    Doggy style
    Did you Jump and Dump?
    -
    Any relevant attempt details?
    Not sure when I ovulated as OPKs were positive end of Aug but dating scan showed it must have occured beginning of Sep.
    SUPPLEMENTS USED
    DW Supplements
    -
    DH Supplements
    -
    Any additional supplement info?
    -
    Did you do anything with Ions?
    -
    Moon Phase during conception?
    -
    Did you use any Old Wives Tales?
    Newborn girls clothes, pink baby blanket, wooden spoon with lilac ribbon under the bed
    Things that make me feel great about my sway:
    So glad I got to include exercise in my sway as I felt I wasn't going down the 'whole kitchen sink' route that I had to have something else in my corner!

    Although towards the end I did give up possibly a week before I ovulated as it was becoming quite tedious and I was exhausted!! So hope this doesn't affect my overall sway!
    Things that make me nervous about my sway:
    Too long on diet - could my body have gotten accustomed to my eating habits? And giving up exercise!

    DHs immediate family is ONLY boys!

    Just cannot imagine I would ever be so lucky to have a girl
    Things worth mentioning:
    Just so happy to be FINALLY pregnant and 'think' I saw a girly nub at my 13w 3d scan so that makes me feel hopeful.

    I feel so at peace if we have DS3 after seeing that sweet baby wriggling around at my scan - gender desire does not seem as strong as it did with DS2.

    Fantastic sway! Wow, what discipline and patience you have. I really think you have a girl in there. Congrats & well done, when will you find out the gender?

    My Ovulation Chart
    currently TTC, Cycle #16 since last BFP

    TTC #1 - swaying pink on & off since Nov 2013 - hoping for a girl first but excited for either!

    Dec 2001 - May 2006 : 5 early abortions of healthy singletons (3 medical @5w, 2 surgical @8w, last 4 pregnancies conceived with late DH, all conceived while TTA/on birth control)
    Mar 2012: miscarried B/G twins @5w (conceived 2 cycles after remověng Paraguard copper IUD while NTNP), one twin was ovarian ectopic

    Me: 34, widowed, late O + short LP, normal-good hormone levels excepting undetectable testosterone, seeking a known sperm donor/life partner
    My sway: vegetarian LE for over 28w, skipping breakfast, fibre (ground psyllium husks) with/before/between meals, physically inactive, drama avoidance, ocassional minimal YesBaby lube as needed, alternate cycles on low dose Clomid, double shot lattes (with meals)
    Past sway tactics I've dropped (in order): Vitex, Sudafed, antihistamines, intermittent fasting, one attempt per cycle at positive OPK, one attempt in fertile period
