BF, AF, and girl sway help! Questions

[Trike3]

DH and I want to sway girl. We are thinking of our attempt being summer (May-June timeframe). My last period was feb 2012 (when DS was conceived). DS has been bf about 5x a day, about every 3hrs. At night he goes to bed around 6-7pm and that's the last nursing until wake up at 4-5am. I had been getting up to pump at midnight, but stopped about 3-4 Weeks ago. Now AF is here! :(
How does this affect my sway? Or does it? DS is 16mo and I was sort of hoping to wean by 18mo-2yr. But I was feeling conflicted about that, wondering if BF could help my sway.
Advice?

I would not quit BF. It's not a magic bullet (nothing is!) but it sways pink. He also might wean himself while you're pregnant, since a lot of kids don't like the way the milk changes.

I wanted to use saw palmetto, and I can't since I'm BF my 3 year old still, but it sways just about as well as SP, and has health benefits for us both :) I'm at peace with my decision now!

I would never ever ever wean for swaying.

I have an essay on it here http://genderdreaming.com/forum/gender-swaying-general-discussion/2200-swaying-while-breastfeeding.html and def. also read the "getting pg while breastfeeding" essay that is linked at the beinning.

Thanks for the essay link. I checked it out, and it's very informative.
I was planning on no supplements for my sway, so I'm good there.
From the begining, I always planning on weaning DS around the 18m mark. I don't want to Breastfeed past 2. The women that do, that's awesome, but it's just not for me.
I was hesitant to do it though, because I figured it could help my sway. Now, I'm wondering if I should just stick to the original plan. Last week I noticed a TON of EWCM, so I suppose that means Breastfeeding isn't drying up my CM anymore, right? Now, AF is here. I guess that is going to make tracking ovulation a little easier, at least. It's so weird to have AF back after 2 years! I didn't have any supplies, and when I messaged my awesome DH and told him what was up, he came home with a package of pads, some chocolate, and a bottle of wine! (Best DH EVER!)
DS usually BFs at around 4am, 9am, 12pm, 3pm, and 6pm. If I drop the 9,12,and 3 nursings, I could more easily put DS in daycare and work without worrying about pumping. Would just the wake up and bedtime nursings give me any pink sway benifits, you think?

I conceived my only girl while BF my DS3. Only nights and mornings and working at that time. I'm currently BF my 18 month old. I want to quit now!

We don't know that drying up CM is how breastfeeding even sways. So it's kinda a crystal ball question for me as to whether cutting back on feedings can still sway pink. It will make it more likely that you have a regular cycle though - sometimes nursing + LE Diet can make cycle unpredictable.
