[gizmo77]

congrats!!!

[Foxy]

Great sway! Congratulations again!

[TTC5]

Me again lol just wondering did you have cereal and if so what kind and also what type of milk did you consume? Xx

[3Pink1Blue]

Sorry Ladies , I've sucked at checking back.

ttc5- essentially I ate lots of meat, fat fruits, veg and nuts, absolutely nothing processed but cereals and breads. All my dairy was full fat and, as much as I hate it, the milk was whole.

Thanks for the congrats we are so excited!

[hope.ful]

I am so excited for you! Can you tell me about Big O - before dh or after?

[3Pink1Blue]

Both :)

[hope.ful]

What is the HE diet?

[ELP]

What is the HE diet?
HE is High Everything, so plenty of nutrients sway blue:agree:

[gizmo77]

hey 3pink, just curious about the sex part..did you and dh do any making out prior to his shooting?
and what position, how long di dyou lay for? (both times)

im asking everyone, basically how long di dyour deed take? ;-) asking bc making out increasses sperm count so im taking a "poll"

[3Pink1Blue]

We did make out a little but not a ton, maybe 5-10 minutes.

Position was a deep missionary type as I'm not a big fan of doggy.
I layed flat for 10-15 minutes then really had to pee but went right back to bed for the night.

All in all start to finish was maybe 20 min including 2 big O's. What can I say, we've been together for 17yrs, we can bang out a great one in no time flat lol

[TTC5]

Hey J, did you use egg whites or pre seed? What about an IC?

[love being a mummy]

Thank you for saying that, I was going to ask about it cause I feel the same way.

[3Pink1Blue]

No egg white I had tons of ewcm thanks to the fish oil and no ic.

[Flava]

Jen i have a Q? I see you did drink coffee? How much was it? because I drink half cup on the morning and everyone says no coffee for blue sway....but I think half cup is not much?:think:
Also can you give me some tips about veggies?I can't think of much...I eat salad I put lettuce , tomato , bell pepper , cucumber ,in it.Salsa with avocado ...that's it pretty much for my veggie. Or I cook veggie sup with green carotts ect.
maybe I can dip carrots in ranch souse , but no other ideas.
How often did you eat veggie? I eat fruit every day but not veggie ...only the V8 juice..salad like every other day.
I wonder if I need more veggie?:think:

[3Pink1Blue]

I drank 2 cups with agave and full fat creamer per day. I never drank coffee with the girls so this time I went for it.

I had mushrooms in my eggs each morning and a huge pile of veg with each dinner. We are real veggie lovers here, we have broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, peas or green beans for dinner and then every other night or so I'd throw in a potato as well. I usually ate 1 avocado a day with chicken for lunch. I think you are probably good to go.

The biggest change I made was to cut out most processed foods.

[gizmo77]

i hear ya 3pink! hahah when my dh and i made out for the 1st time in a few months/maybe yrs, he was ready to go after like 5 min. (and me too). hahaha. just get to the good stuff!

[gizmo77]

how much weight did you gain from being on the diet for 4 mos if you dont mind?

[Flava]

Thanks! Well i did drink coffee with the girls so I drink very little now only on the morning .Hope it's enough change.
I can do some mushrooms in eggs for sure i love that.Good idea!
Do not like avocado....so I can only eat that with mix in to salsa .How do you eat it?And the dinner veggies?
Hope you don't mind all the Q:oops: I just want to eat more veggie and need some idea how! XX

[3Pink1Blue]

gizmo - I ate HE for 4 months but was on the IG diet for 2 months. In that time I gained almost 30 lbs, I don't think that much is necessary but I choose to believe I needed it all :rofl:

Flava - I LOVE avocado. I would literally grill a chicken breast, slice up an avocado and chow down. It's no magic bullet, eat it if you can if not stick to healthy, less processed fats like olives, olive oil and real butter.
We steam or grill veggies and add a touch of butter and salt. I truly believe basic is best.
I don't mind the questions at all :bigsmile:

[TTC5]

No egg white I had tons of ewcm thanks to the fish oil and no ic.

Thanks!

[3Pink1Blue]

You're most welcome!

[love being a mummy]

Me too

Similar to us. Broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, beans. Potato
I am also cutting out processed foods.

[Flava]

thanks Jen ! I think i stick with the salsa avocado mix then because no way I can just eat it like that . Really I don't see how anyone can LOL Also hate olives but love olive oil I cook everything with that!
Thanks for veggie tip I will steam it DH got some broccoli last night I told him we must eat more veggie for dinner lol.

[3Pink1Blue]

LBAM - A lot of my sway this time was based on doing the opposite of what I did with the girls :)

Flava - stick with whatever works for best you, I really think a happy sway is a better sway.

Coffee :agree: fine in moderation for a blue sway

Just wanted to give you kudos on the veg and esp the avocado! :agree: Excellent!!!

Flava, I ate avocado 4 times a week before DS 3. I would mix it with salsa and eat it with chips. It does not have a ton of protein but if you like it, you can use it as a meal and then just be sure to eat again fairly quick.

[zanacal]

Just in case anybody's panicing because they don't like avacado - I can't stand it :D

[3Pink1Blue]

Exactly Z, no magic food :)

[TTC5]

Oh good coz I am allergic to avocado lol

[atomic sagebrush]

Yeah, just think of all the thousands of years that people didn't even know about avocados before the New World was discovered!!!

[TTC5]

True!

[3Pink1Blue]

Sad, sad years lol

[atomic sagebrush]

Haha I know, I feel sorry for them! Cabbage and turnip all day every day and never to taste choc, potato, tomato, avocado...poor dears! ;)
