DIET
Did you follow a diet plan? Yes
If yes to diet, which one did you most follow?
Comments regarding DW's diet changes- I used to eat meat with dinner every night and snack consistently throughout the day. I also drank tea and energy drinks.
I basically went vegetarian, only having meat very occasionally and in very small amounts. I switched to coffee even though I’ve always hated it. Haha. I was trying to have 2-3 cups a day. I also tried to have 1 alcoholic drink a night with dinner when the kids were in bed. I only ever used to drink on special occasions so all of these things were pretty big changes.
If diet was used, length of time before attempt? About 4.5 months
Did you skip breakfast regularly? Yes
Did DH change his diet with you? No
Comments regarding DH's diet- No changes to his diet. I tried to get him on OLE capsules but he was quite lazy taking them so I doubt they had any effect.

Things that make me feel great about my sway: Skipped breakfast every day
No snacking
Mostly vegetarian
Dropped tea
Started drinking coffee and alcohol
All huge changes from when I conceived my boys
Also I was at my lowest weight in 5 years!
Things that make me nervous about my sway: I only walked, I didn’t run due to a bad knee and ankle from my sports days.
Things worth mentioning: I’m really comfortable that I’ve done everything within my power to get a girl, so if it’s another boy I’m content that it’s just what is meant to be and I won’t have to wonder what if I had done something differently.
It’s been awhile but I keep meaning to come back and say we swayed girl in 2022 and had a little girl in early 2023! First girl born in 110+ years on my husband’s side.[emoji179]
