Hi all just slightly panicking got a +opk this morning! (yay I work!!!)
I have done a rush sway the last 2 1/2 weeks been really good on the diet and haven't cheated at all as wanted to ttc this month.
I don't think my diet was to high before as don't eat breakfast any way and just tend to graze in the afternoon then have a proper meal in the evening. I did drink tea all day everyday.
I have cut the tea and have swapped it for diet coke (yuck but getting used to it!)
I've lost 7lbs so far went from 118lb
I have taken saw palmetto and vitex Af to o. Also taken two aspirin 75mg last week and one last night also took a zirtex yesterday as had a little cm only a tiny bit though.
Will take another tonight.
We did bd last night but very shallow (used ky as feel like a desert down there lol) then really panicked and j&d straight away thinking I haven't done enough or long enough for this all to work.
Any advice would be lovely?!?

I would just hold fast now and wait. Personally I would not do any more attempts this month. It really took me at least 6-8 weeks to see the affects of the diet.

Hi,
I've been doing le diet since mid may and i've only just noticed difference in my cm - as in totally dried up this month and know i'm o as had the minutest amount a couple of days ago, but since then nothing. Ironically i'm panicking as i don't know if i can get pregnant with no cm!! Like you taking husband and i 5 mins just to get started ttc - sorry tmi!!!

You seem to have same effects as me and you've only been on diet a couple of weeks! ie. lost weight (i've dropped a stone to just over 7) and no cm. Not sure what other things to expect really. I'm not taking any supps except folic acid. Also drinking diet coke as if going out of fashion!!

Iol is horrible isnt it! Nice to know there's not much difference in us though, thank you for sharing.
I hate this diet with a passion and coke. I o'd a day early this month not sure if that's a good thing or not? and dropped my cals just slightly around o to make sure I didn't put on any weight over that time. But have upped them again so hopefully I am gonna slow down on losing if it's going to be another month of diet :(
Would be really nice to know all the little changes ladies go through on the diet!
X x good luck ttc x X

I personally think no one could answer that but you. It depends on if you just want a baby or your desired gender? This is my last baby and last shot to get my daughter so I plan on doing everything 100% so I know I gave everything I could and leave the rest up to God.

I BDed on evening of +opk and it's a girl. But we did abstinence instead if FR. Personally I think timing doesn't matter much so I would probably BD one more time. But if you feel strongly that timing does sway, I'd hold off from BDing.

Thank you yes I do agree with you so if I get a positive at the end of the month it will truly be down to god as it wasn't a very good attempt at all!! Lol
I have 3ds and had terrible gd with the last and really want to try 100% with this so that's why I asked for advice.
My body has changed so much I this short time doing the diet and thought I was ready but clearly in my heart I wasn't as didn't do anymore attempts!!!

It's so hard cause I want a dd soooo much but at the end of the day I love my boys with all my heart and wouldn't change them for anything and which ever may come next for me I will love no matter what. swaying isn't 100% guaranteed and people sway everyday without realising.
I think I have to prepare for a baby despite the gender as i was in such a deverstated state during my pg with ds3 so any, even small chance of changing the odds to more favouring the xx that's great! Plus like you say and the rest is in gods hands! Xxx

Thank you nestof3 I don't think timing matters either after reading all the info but made the decision not to do anymore attempts and wait till next month also 3dpo now so gone past the point of return lol onwards to next cycle. xxxx ;)

My thinking is always try unless you've REALLY blown it. That's actually quite a good sway! I would feel good about that.

There is never a perfect month and many people don't get pg the first month or two or three with swaying, so we just don't have the luxury of playing around skipping months here and there. Plus, the longer you stay on diet, the more weight you lose, and then you end up stalling ovulation.

The way you did it, it actually was very well done. You don't feel quite 100% on the diet so you got strict in other ways and that's all you can ask for. I think you should feel confident that you did what you could do and let the chips fall where they may!!
