Any additional comments?
I did have my DH shower before our attempt. I was very "dry" before we dtd and I think that also was great. We only had one attempt. The night of ovulation I was out at party ended up smoking a bunch of cigarette's maybe that will help too. :) I also wanted to mention that I had a ton of diet raspberry snapple only because I was getting tired of drinking diet coke & I knew it had splenda in it. I think that maybe I thought it was awful and I wanted to get pregnant. It wasn't so bad since it worked! But, I know atomic doesn't recommend it since tea has some extra nutrition in it.

Any additional supplement info?
DW- I took vitex & SP in July I got preg Sept. I also took baby asprin the week we dtd. I also took HCG shot, so I knew when I was ovulating so I only dtd on the night of the shot.
My DH also took Calcium and Olive Leaf and I can't remember if I did give him one cranberry the morning of the night we bdb. Also the week of me dtd or maybe just couple days before i took calcium 600mg and 250 magnesium. I did clomid from days 3-7.
Did you do anything with Ions?
I took a hot bath before our attempt and my DH took a hot shower.
Moon Phase during conception?
Full Moon
Did you use any Old Wives Tales?
I put a baby girl onesie under my bed with a necklace printed on it. I love it! I dtd at night instead of the morning.
Things that make me feel great about my sway:
I stuck to being a vegetarian for full 11 weeks, clomid, the hot shower for DH before, my husband has sort of low sperm so maybe that helped and my one attempt only that month, the cigs that i did smoke on my ovulation night..
Things that make me nervous about my sway:
I did not lose as much weight as I wanted too, since all the carbs were working against me. I did find that the bagel though at lunch time was the only thing that got me thru to 4pm. So, although i didn't lose as much as I would of liked, I was able to stick to the girl diet. I was not good in the 2WW. I did not cheat and eat anything I was not supposed to, but I did eat more then I was supposed to. I am hoping that is ok and it doesn't ruin my sway.
Things worth mentioning:
Either way my "sway" goes I want to thank Atomic for all her guidance and support. I couldn't of done it with out you! Thank you Gender Dreaming!!
