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-

Did LE to a certain extent. I did not watch sodium but went primarily vegetarian (with occasional chicken or fish), kept calories within range, fat I didn't track well, protein within range although possibly too low.

If diet was used, length of time before attempt?

16 weeks

Did you skip breakfast regularly?

Yes

Did DH change his diet with you?

No

Comments regarding DH's diet-

He did not change diet but I stopped cooking meat so his dinners were mainly veg. He skips breakfast anyway but that probably has no effect.

DId you consume alcohol?

• A couple of drinks per week

DId you try to limit caffeine?

No, I drink caffeine regularly

Any Diet Details?

By the end I actually was getting random nerve pains all over my body either due to an electrolyte imbalance or more probable, decrease of protein. The 2 weeks before our attempt I added in more protein and the pains stopped.

155 (25 BMI) but had lost 25 lbs (plus previous baby weight) over the past year. So about 55lbs down prior to swaying.

I started doing an hour of recumbent bike cardio 6-7 days a week immediately (more often 6) and the final 8 weeks was doing spin 3-4 days a week and then recumbent bike on other days.

Things that make me feel great about my sway:

I exercised more than I ever have and truly believe there is a link. I was also completely expecting it to take a few months to get pregnant so I was very relaxed.

Things that make me nervous about my sway:

I wasn't super strict with my diet

Things worth mentioning:

Whether or not the sway worked (which I feel like maybe it didn't), I was in much better shape than I've been almost ever even though my diet was not what most would consider healthy (too many carbs and too little protein), I felt great.

[BabsNMK]

Oh ETA my actual BMI is wrong. Above is prior to sway. I actually lost an additional 7 lbs prior to O and was at 24 BMI.

Also, the two months prior to my attempt my cycle went from 28 days on the dot to 26 and 24 or something like that. My luteal phase was only 10 days the month before conception which is short for me.

Congratulations. Your sway sounds great, hoping you hear pink

[BabsNMK]

Thanks Kelbear. A few more weeks until a blood test and I'll know. It feels like a boy to me but then again my first felt like a girl so who knows.

[Butterflies buttercups]

Your sway looks very similar to mine so wishing u have a girl in there ! Good luck xx
