Comments regarding DW's diet changes- PCOS-LE because of a sway opposite. I focussed in fruits, vegetabels, whole grains en little sugar. Full cream yoghurt once per day, no other dairy. I did have some sugar because I was swaying for a long time (and no PCOS en low BMI). Had 3 meal per day, with a fast of 16 hours. Was of the diet twice because of a 2 pregnancy's that ended in miscarriage. We have been vegetarian for many years. Because I was eating like this for a long time, did nog feel like a lot of effort anymore. Was not too strict because I needed to plateau on weight and was doing a lot of exercise.
If diet was used, length of time before attempt? Started to make the first changes a year before conceiving.

The scans at 8,5 and 10 weeks are putting me a couple of days ahead. We dtd night before positive OPK en night after (positive OPK in morning). But maybe I cought the end of my surge and ovulated sooner than I thought. Who knows. So might be one or two attempts.

Things that make me feel great about my sway: Long time on diet, exercise, drinking wine, my age, conceiving after a miscarriage.
Things that make me nervous about my sway: Two attempts, no coffee, no femara this cycle. But really I have nog been worried. We did what we could. Was swaying for so long, it took all the stress out if it.
Things worth mentioning: We had two miscarriages in the past year. So this pregnancy I was more concerned with miscarriage and healthy little bean than gender. We had our NIPT results (they don't tell you gender here), and everything was fine. Now 13 weeks and counting! Will have an elective US next week to find out gender and will let you know!
