Hi ladies, I am new here and I see everyone is so informed so I was wondering if someone can help guide me. I am in a bind. For several reasons, I would really like to TTC in the next month or two, but I seem to always O in a full moon phase. This month and next month I am set to O in the middle or toward the end of FM, in the waning crescent phase. I have two boys, and it makes me nervous because both were conceived in full moon phase, but I realize now I was swaying heavily for boy without knowing it, just by the way I lived (slept a lot, always ate bfast, snacker, lots of protein, tons of bananas, prenatals, gained some weight right before I conceived, weight training, frequent BD, plus DH was using mucinex and we did missionary on O day and all days surrounding it!) :) haha no wonder...but I do adore my boys.
So...DH and I have been doing the LE diet for a couple weeks and taking our supplements. I am still BFing my toddler a couple times a day but I know that I am Oing because I have felt it. I always get EWCM a few days leading up to O, then get crampy, then I swear I feel the egg pop out. lol
I got a rock salt lamp and have been using it for a week or two now. I am also wearing this Ionic Health bracelet I ordered online (I hope this kind is suitable, as I wasn't sure because it is black and they say only the solid color ones emit neg ions...but black is a color!):

But I have had a space heater on a lot lately, and I spend several hours at my desktop computer editing every day because I am a photographer.
My questions are how long do I need to be exposed to the negative ion producing things before we TTC? Is it just at ovulation that they should be on or months ahead of time so a couple weeks doesn't matter? I have no idea. :) I know Atomic Sagebrush doesn't believe ions affect sways so I wonder what she would recommend.
Also, if I have drastically altered my diet, but just for a few weeks, and I know our pH is in a good range for TTC girl then should I go ahead and try whenever? Or wait several months until I get to New Moon phase? Or try to change my ovulation? My cycles have been long with BFing.
I also have very mild PCOS, so I am weary of being on this diet for too long.
Thank you in advance!
