Comments regarding DW's diet changes-
After giving birth in April to Ds#3, I went back to bad eating and normal habits. As summer approached, I knew I had to do something so I went back on the LE diet to lose weight. It took me a while but I finally got down to a really low weight in November. BUT, holidays came, started eating some meat (mostly chicken) again, and gained back some weight. But, I still had some LE components...never ate breakfast only coffee, never are lunch, only grabbed a few snacks, and then ate a decent dinner. Lots of starbucks, string cheese, and cookies some days! Usually I am too busy to stop and eat since I work from home.

Everything! Ha! We did nothing at all since this was a Oops!
Things worth mentioning:
DS3 seems to have cured my GD so I really just hope for everything to go well!

[NCBeachyGrl]

This makes it official, right?

[Rosie85]

yup!!

I think it's a decent enough non-sway!

Fingers crossed for you girl!

[ThreeMenAndALAdy]

Looks great to me!! A no stress sway. You did everything different this time. Maybe the outcome will be different. Love your attitude. 4 boys are great too!! If you get your girl, I'll give you my username...lol.

[bethwade]

Congrats!!

I think oopsies can be an excellent pink sway tactic! Pink dust headed your way!

[Adia]

Agreed....oopsies are usually girls!!! Mine was, my mom's, my aunt's, etc....
Good luck! Looks like a good indirect girl sway!!

[Rosie85]

My two oopsies are boys! I had a total boy diet though!

[NCBeachyGrl]

I have to say, with this oopsie, I feel much less stress/pressure about gender. With swaying, it is almost like trying to defeat the odds b/c you did everything in your power. This time, I feel like I have no control and whatever gender is in there, is in there. Nothing I could have done different, nothing I can do now!! Maybe I am just a little older and wiser and learning to go with it!

Thank you all!! Starting to get excited instead of panicked!

[Rosie85]

Great mentality. I kind of wish that would happen for me too. I feel I will be extra sad if this is a boy since I am trying sooo hard for that girl!

If it helps I didn't sway eathier.. Just took precautions. All I did was drink diet soda, crystal light, ate a couple boiled eggs in the a.m with a cup of coffee with equal and creamer. Besides that I ate whatever I wanted when I wanted. I did take Vitex and SP for 3 months from Af-O and Folic Acid twice a day everyday. Only Dtd 3 days prior to O and 1 day after.. Not planned.

We weren't trying eathier, just not preventing... Hope you get your girl ♥

[hotdogz&boyz]

Congrats!! What a happy surprise :) :) Hope all goes smoothly!

So, I guess the obsessing is starting bc DH is at work today and I have too much free time!!

i was thinking back a little more and I am starting to feel better about my weight loss. From May-Nov I lost 25 lbs and from Dec-Jan only gained about 5 back ( I weighed myself today and was only 140). I was BF'ing and had bad mastitis and
lost my supply in October. Once I had stopped, I lost a lot of weight pretty fast. Not to mention, we started looking at moving in October and had some big decisions to make. DH took a promotion, we had 2 weeks to find a house, I had to find tenants for our existing house, had to semi pack up, had to travel to Minnesota and call in my sister last minute to watch the kids for 2 days, took a promotion myself and started leading a troubled team of 12 ppl, and then lived in a hotel for a few days with kids. Then once Mid-November was here, I had to drive 4 hours each way by myself with the kids, coordinate movers, and then finally had to deal with getting our stuff the day before Thanksgiving. It was a scramble to find new schools, babysitters, etc. I lost the month of November!!!!

So, maybe I am grasping at straws, but hopefully all this stress has led to a better sway!! And maybe my weight loss is better than I once thought!
