Things that make me feel great about my sway:
My terribly unhealthy diet and lack of nutrition as well as my weight loss. DTD once after a 7 day abstinence (frequent BD got us 3 boys). My lack of cm leading up to and during O which is a first for me.
Things that make me nervous about my sway:
I was under some stress due to the holidays, my recent miscarriage and my father being sick in the hospital so I worry about my T levels.
Things worth mentioning:
I had an early loss (chemical) the previous cycle and I'm unsure what affect that may have.

Southern Butterfly! Same Southern Butterfly from ingender? I must say you were VERY comforting to me on my last pregnancy! (scubathesea) You just always had the right thing to say! So congrats on your pregnancy! I thought you were done trying! You will sail through it amazingly. Of course, I'll keep my fingers crossed for pink! If this isn't the same Southern Butterfly, congrats just the same:)

Hiya Scuba! Yep, I'm the same one from IG and I do remember you! How are you? How are your boys? That is so sweet that you remembered me and I'm so glad I was able to be supportive:happy:

We were pretty sure we were done after DS3 and were ready to move on from babies so we could enjoy raising the boys. Then I found myself unexpectedly pregnant in November but it ended as a chemical. I was shocked at how hard I took it and it really made me realize I wanted another baby. DH agreed to give it one try in December and here we are lol. I figured since were were doing just the one attempt I might as well incorporate a few sway techniques and was glad to find all of Atomics wonderful research. I didn't really take the sway too seriously because in all honesty I would be very happy with another sweet baby boy.

So glad you remembered me from IG and I hope to see you aro

I am just so THRILLED for you! My last pregnancy was SO difficult, but once he was here it was better. I REALLY looked to other moms of three boys that were happy for support and you were an AMAZING example and support. He is a gem. So sweet and so adored by all of us. I am happy. Thinking of trying again, and amazingly enough, have hit a point where I would be happy with another boy. (but of course I'm gearing up to sway for a girl:) Mostly I want a playmate for the baby now and to even up the number to 4 and then we would be done. So thank you for your positivity and congrats on your pregnancy and the journey you are on!

Congratulations!!! I am on the fence anymore about even swaying because I just think four boys is so amazing! My grandmother raised four and had the most wonderful life of love and family. God bless and again Congrats!!!
