Comments regarding DW's diet changes-

My diet was completely opposite to when I conceived my boys. I was all day snacker, I ate loads of cereal, nuts, meat, dairy, vegetables etc. I was always eating. I went on a LE vegetarian diet & ate only twice a day around 11am & 5pm. No meat & no snacking. I also drank 1 can coke zero almost once a day on the sway. The last successful cycle I also added in 1 coffee a day & 1 alcohol a day - I dont normally drink either.

If diet was used, length of time before attempt?

I was on the LE vegetarian diet for 42 weeks last year before my first BFP which ended in micarriage at 10weeks. I restarted the LE diet that day & was on it for 11weeks at attempt & 12 weeks at our second BFP, so 1yr in total on LE vegetarian diet

Did you skip breakfast regularly?

Yes

Did DH change his diet with you?

No

Comments regarding DH's diet-

Hubby didnt change his diet at all but overall was eating a little less red meat & more chicken.

DId you try to limit caffeine?

Yes, I had 1 drink per day

Any Diet Details?

I introduced coffee & alcohol the successful cycle.

Any Diet Comments/Additional Info?

The diet was very repetitive, I pretty much ate the same thing every week. I did eat pineapple to assist with implantation 1dpo-7dpo

WEIGHT AND EXERCISE
What did you weigh/BMI do leading up to O?

I conceived DS1 at 70kg BMI 27
I conceived DS2 at 68kg BMI 26
I conceived this pregnancy at 55kg BMI 21

Initially I lost 10kg on the LE diet but gained 7kg very quickly following our BFP last year. After the miscarriage I restarted the LE diet & lost 5kg before this BFP.

Any Weight/Exercise related additional info/comments?

I was a couch potato this past year. I normally go walking with the pram but I tend to build muscle quite quickly. I knew if I continued to exercise a little this would stay the same. I also didnt have the time to exercise everyday so I didnt. I have noticed that I have lost a lot of muscle tone in general.

I wasnt well at the time of attempt & really not that into it. I had a lot of fatigue & I had gastro. My best friend reckons that crap sex always leads to pregnancy & she is right! I didnt jump & dump - I lay down for at least 10min but some did spill out.

Hubby usually releases on his own everynight which is why I think it took so long to conceive. Once I put him on a E3d self release pattern we got out BFPs

1st cycle post miscarriage
summer conception
just before the new moon
minimal ewmc
sick at attempt
I am still breastfeeding DS2 3 times a day

Things that make me nervous about my sway:

weight gain with previous pregnancy loss

I am very good at making boys!

Things worth mentioning:

I gave this a good go, I have no regrets. I dont think I could have done things much differently & kept my sanity.

So many girl friendly elements in your sway. Congrats on your bfp and fx for pink.

[XXforhubby]

Huge congrats kc! I bet you have a pink one growing in there!

I was breastfeeding my DS3 6 times a day when I conceived this time around. I'm now down to 3 times a day. I'll be curious to see if this helps us!



DS1, DS2, & DS3
EDD 9/30/2017 for pink

[kc15880]

I conceived DS2 whilst still breastfeeding DS1 & we BD 4days before +opk so a reverse shettles & bf still got me a boy last time, however I had a extremely "blue" lifestyle. FX this time!

Congrats and good luck, KC. You had a great sway. I love seeing stories from other breastfeeding pink swayers, too.

[kc15880]

well I had a ultrasound & confirmed what I thought - I ovulated on the left & they put my dates back by 5 days due to late ovulation. She seemed so suprised that I actually knew the date I ovulated. The Dr also said I implanted on the right - so lets see if the ramzi theory is right for me - heres hoping its not!

[atomic sagebrush]

A lot of people think that left sided O = girls. I've seen Ramzi guess WRONG on people's ultrasounds!

[kc15880]

& the NIPT results say I have an ultrasound next week so i guess that will definitely confirm it. I am disappointed as I had such a huge lifestyle change but I just couldnt manage to include exercise into my sway. I dont have any regrets though & I gave it a good shot.
