I'm posting over in the September group, but realizing that my ovulation won't actually be until October, so I'm bridging the gap :). Anyone else planning on trying for some pink or blue this fall?

Hi MyByC! A little Leona would be wonderful for sure. It's looking like that might be what ends up happening for us, too - although pink swaying around Thanksgiving is going to be miserable ;).

Hi ladies, I'm hoping to start my pink sway in August and TTC in September/October. I have a fair idea of what I'm going to do. I'm petrified of the LE diet as I'm terrible on diets. Will be great to get some support here.

Sarah, you must think that this will bring your baby girl.
Only this "dream" will ambition you to take it to final.

Jana, lucky lady of 3 pink joys. Good luck!

Kelissi, I'm happy I'm not living in the Usa as we havent these holidays :)))
But anyway, I gave up meet on 9th June. It's working fantastic.
Just that my Af has a 2 days delay this month...should I be worried?
I believe it's because a big change has happend to my body with not eating meet anymore..I'm not pregnant as I use protection until we TTC.

Hi MyByC, We are expats from NZ. Adore Singapore. It's a really great lifestyle, always hot, lots of beautiful places to travel to close by and there's lots to do with kiddos. Not sure if we wil ever want to leave!

Hi ladies, We attempted in July for a girl and BFN. We are likely going to take August off (huge international trip at the end of August/early September I'd like to not be pregnant for!), and our next attempt should be right around August 31st/September 1st. I've been on LE and daily 60 minute cardio since April 1st. The diet becomes easy/second nature after awhile. I don't really mind it anymore. I actually love the cardio as well! I was sad to get a BFN for our first attempt, but part of me is ok living out my "girl-mom" alter ego for another 6 weeks (or more) . Being a thin vegetarian who loves running is NOTHING LIKE ME, but it's fun to be someone else for awhile.

Look forward to getting to know everyone as we get closer to September. Hope everyone gets their DG!

Sarah - I'm not going to lie, the breakfast bit is probably the hardest part for me because I'm a huge breakfast eater! I always fast at least 12 hours, but 90% of the time I do a 14-16 hour fast. There's always a day every week or 2 in which I feel shaky from low blood sugar so I go ahead and listen to my body and eat something carby/sugary.

Hey there ladies. I have been stalking for a little while and decided it was time I introduce myself as it's highly likely we won't be in with a chance during O in the first week of August.

As the signature suggests, I am Mummy to 4 girls including one Angel in the sky. This will be our last chance at a blue bundle as there will be no more babies after this for us. I have been on the diet and supps since January. Quite over it all really but, you do what you need to. April (our first month trying) was a failure regarding timing. May, June and July weren't ever going to happen because we discovered dh had some issues. This means we weren't even able to make any attempt :( Dh went for a blood test this morning and we get the results on Friday. Hopefully the problem will be easily resolved to we can get on with ttc.

Good luck ladies.

Sarah4girl
July 23rd, 2014, 08:27 PM
Hi Boysway, wow you are doing great sticking to the diet and exercise (any major changes to lifestyle are hard) good on you. Hopefully the blood tests have good results and you can start TTC again! So what does the blue sway look like for you?

Thanks for the support ladies :D

Well, we got dh's bloods back. Low testosterone was the only problem. After speaking to atomic I'm hoping the Dr will be happy for dh to start TRT (Testosterone Replacement Therapy) and Viagra. However, if dh starts TRT I will need to fall pregnant asap as the TRT reduces sperm count.

Sarah4girl, do you mean my diet?

MyByC

Hi Ladies,
Can I join? I am going to try again after a two month break from boy swaying for almost 9 months with no success. I am planning to take it easier this time and try a healthier route. However, this time it there will be a big difference because I am not telling my DH. He took it hard this past time as he felt to pressued. This time I willingness take it day by day. Good luck ladies and hoping to find new wonderful ttc buddies. I think almost all of my ttc buddies from Jan to June are all pregnant 😁.

Boysway

Dh and I went back to the drs. Testosterone level was 7.0. Although the level is below 8 Dh needs to be 40 in order to qualify for the TRT :( So, Viagra it is.

I'm also looking at ways to decrease dh's estrogen levels and increase his testosterone. If he only he would lose weight and exercise as that would be his main problem.

As for me, therapy went badly. DH is still insisting that he doesn't want to have another, but I'm realizing that this is what I want more than anything else in the world and I'm hoping that he comes to understand that, too. So, I started dieting yesterday in prep for a kitchen sink sway with exercise, diet, methylfolate, and aspirin to TTC in late October. On the plus side, I'm now ovulating with the new moon, so maybe things are lining up - I'm hoping it's a sign. :)

MyByC
August 7th, 2014, 06:10 PM
Cristina13, I will start my sway in September 1st and take baby aspirin and folic acid + peppermint tea from AF to O.
I think your hubby can take LR 3 months before.
Just ask Atomic. She knows better :-) She will guide you SUPER :-)

I'm wonderring what Crystal water is? Is it a name for USA consumers or just mineral water :)))

I already cut off meat from 9 June. Still keeping it until I get preg.


Kelissi, I'm sorry about your DH. I hope he will be on the same line with you soon.
Most of mens, if they have their boy, they dont care about womens feelings.

Boysway
August 8th, 2014, 02:10 AM
Probably tmi but, I bought dh's tablets today. Hopefully they work :D fingers crossed this means I'll actually be in with a chance at a bfp next month :) Who knows when I'll ovulate though. It looks like I ovulated on CD 15 this cycle which is not the norm for me. I usually ovulate around CD 18-21.

Hey ladies just letting you know I will likely back off from this forum for a while. I may stalk a little bit but, who knows *shrugs*. I am having a very hard time with all things ttc and life in general and my depression is back. I will be seeing a psychologist as of this Wednesday. I won't be telling dh as he doesn't need to know. That will only make things worse for him as my moods and his problem are causing his depression to resurface and he gets it worse then I do. Thank you for all your support, I really value it xx :bighugs:

Hi ladies, I'm on day 4 of my sway! Wahoo. I'm on this weird high. I'm not sure if its my bodies response to the low blood sugar and perhaps upping the adrenaline. Or maybe it's the exercise. I'm usually a very chilled out person and often lethargic. So this feels strange for me! Did anyone else feel like this at the start if their sway? How is everyone else going?

Sarah4girl
August 17th, 2014, 09:10 AM
Im on day five today. I went for a 2 hour walk this morning with a group of friends. So ive been craving sugar all day. It hasnt been a great day in terms of the food ive eaten. But i will be good tomorrow :) I plan to do the diet/ exercise for 6 weeks before TTC. Im still waiting for my order of Olive leaf to come in the mail. Im taking fibre, Folic acid and will be taking climid.

Is there anyone else on this thread swaying at the moment?

Hmmm twins :) I'm not afraid but hubby would be. I've asked my GP if he can prescribe it for me, he said yes. (I have PCOS and v long cycles) Haven't got the script yet. It seems there are different recommendations of when to take it. Any thoughts?

August 20th, 2014, 08:26 AM
We are TTC pink in September. I am getting a little nervous!

Linzshine, I am eating lots of white pita bread and hummus. And quick pasta sides by Knorrs(Lipton). There is a cheddar broccoli one I eat almost every day, I just don't add the milk or butter when cooking them;)
I really don't mind the diet. I am just missing me some cheese! Half the amount of cheese I used to eat would exceed my limits for LE!!!!

Good Luck Everyone!!!

Sarah4girl
August 20th, 2014, 10:48 AM
I'm eating 2 egg whites in the morning and a coffee as I cannot function without something :) then at about 1pm ill have a cucumber, lettuce and cream cheese sandwich with unfortified bread. Or left over dinner. Dinners are usually brown pasta (I'm doing LE PCOS style) with a bit of pasta sauce and cheese. Or Brown rice stir fry with Egg plant, Courgette, mushroom and leak. Ill often have a smoothie in the afternoon after I do 1hr of exercise as I'm starving. And will have a diet coke with lunch. Fun!! :)

I'm doing PCOS style too. I've been eating:

Breakfast - just a cup of peppermint tea with 2 splenda, nothing else

Lunch- (between 12-1pm) - brown rice and hint of salt wheat thins with a coke zero OR a salad with only lettuce and chicken and 1tbsp balsamic dressing OR whole grain kraft mac and cheese with hint of salt triscuits/wheat thins.

Dinner - baked potato with margerine and corn on the cobb, OR whole grain pasta with marinara, or lipton noodle soup.. and 1 glass of whole milk

snack - 1 fudgicle on those days i really want something sweet, carrots and lite ranch dressing, crystal lite packet in water..

Does this sound ok? I'm averaging between 1200-1300ish calories a day, 38-60g protein depending on the day... 45 grams of sugar(sometimes lower)... I am settling into a groove so I hope it's the right one!

I guess I'll be joining this thread as AF arrived 3 days ago. Boo hoo! :(

I have 2 boys (5 and 11) and this will be cycle #5 of TTC for me. I started the diet back in February, but only had attempts in February, May, June, and August (didn't want a Dec/Jan baby and then Europe trip in July so off diet). I really thought August would be my BFP month, but oh well. If I get my BFP this month then my due date will pretty much be exactly the same as it was for DS2.

I'll be ditching the aspirin this cycle and I think I'll only do peppermint tea during AF since I think it keeps it from being super heavy.

Other than that I'm doing:

LE diet
Skipping breakfast
2 meals a day
No snacking
Alcohol (stopping at +opk)
Caffeine (stopping at +opk)
Exercise (hopefully if I can persuade myself to start tomorrow. I HATE it!!!!)
Folic acid 1200mcg
Zinc 15mg
Iron 65mg
Cinnamon
Fiber before each meal
LR for DH (two 450mg capsules)
OLE for DH (two 450mg capsules)
1 attempt at +opk

I eat the exact same thing for lunch every day: 1 Kraft Easy Mac & Cheese cup, 1 cup of mixed berries with 2 packs of Equal, 1 bag of Popcorners chips, 1/2 cup applesauce with cinnamon added, and a double shot of espresso with a 1/4 cup each of 1% milk and almond milk and sweetened with xylitol. For dinner I usually eat a 1/2 serving of chicken/pork/white fish and two servings of veggies. I can't eat rice or oats as they make my stomach burn really bad. At night I drink a shot of vodka with a diet cherry Dr. Pepper.

Hi ladies! I didn't think I would end up in this thread but unfortunately for me DH has been much more stubborn then I originally thought about having a third. He's slowly coming around but not on my timeframe! I wanted to already be TTC at this point but I will be lucky if he agrees to make an attempt this month. Plus all the exercise has made my cycle wacky and I've been waiting on AF now for days. I've been on the diet and exercise since around April but I've taken breaks for vacations. I have two sons 4 1/2 and the younger just turned 2 yesterday. I'm so desperate to have another boy or girl that I really hope my DH comes on board this cycle. His reasons drive me mad (just doesn't feel like having another, added stress, changing diapers) even though I've told him he doesn't have to ever change a diaper again if he'll just let me have a third. Well there is my Monday morning rant LOL. Hope everyone has lots of luck this cycle. I find I can stick to the diet pretty well in the days leading up to O but it would be nice to have some hope of an end in sight! :)

Boysway
August 25th, 2014, 05:45 AM
Good luck Junie. Hopefully you will have your dh on board soon.

Hi blue blue pink!! Welcome and good luck :)

I think I'll be skipping this month. Not only because DH is still dragging his feet. But I'm lucky enough to be going on three holidays 2- 1 week trips and 1 long weekend with the girls, and I will definitely not be sticking to the diet too much. I'll be strict during the weeks and days back home but overall it would probably be a bit too risky this cycle.

We are ttc pink in October! I am still on the bcp for this month though. We have two beautiful boys 3 and 21 months. I have been a lurker on this site since the first of the year. Been doing a very loose le since then(proteins were too high to consider it true le and I love cereal!!). This last week I have been a strict le. 1600 cal, all my proteins and fats are now in range, no breakfast and I put away my insanity workouts and jumped on the elliptical instead. I am confused as to what supplements to take for me and my dh. I am already doing fiber and folic acid, don't know if I should add to that or not. Also, weaning off Wellbutrin..... Fingers crossed it doesn't suck too much....

Hey girls! I'm checking in after a two week break. I was kind of bummed after last month's BFN so decided to take a little break from the boards to quell my Martha madness during the first part of my cycle. I think I'm 1dpo as I had a bit of a temp rise this morning. Had our attempt 2 days ago on CD14. Had a +opk on CD14 and looks like I O'd on CD15 like most of my cycles. We'll see. Not feeling too optimistic at this point. Cycle #5 of TTC for me.

Boysway-- Glad you finally got an attempt in and are in the TWW! Sending you ALL my boy dust! Fingers crossed for you! When are you testing?

Most of us take folic acid and baby aspirin.
I also drink peppermint tea from AF-O.
1 attempt at positive OPK.
I'm planning Clomid as well.
And of course cardio 5x/week - 60-90 min.

Again, my plan was personalised by Atomic.
Maybe you could ask her a few basic things taking in consideration your weight and other details. I'm sure she will help you.

MyByC, I am cautiously optimistic. Miss 4 went to lay on me for a cuddle tonight. Bb hurt pretty bad when she laid on them. This is usually the time they get sore whether I have a bfp or not. Not usually this sore though. I doubt any potential egg would have implanted yet anyway. I'm only 6 dpo.

Very quiet thread. Anyone else ovulating soon ? I'm not sure how things will work with my m/c, but I'm hoping to ovulate Friday or Saturday. We had our every 4 days attempt last night but I decided to use OPK this month as well and might add an attempt on Friday if I get a positive on Friday.

I'm trying to be very strict on the diet because I figure the few days around ovulation are a good time to buckle down, but of course I'm struggling! I'm not eating meat or snacking, but just eating too many calories in general. How are things going for everyone else?

I think everyone is having a hard time with the diet.
I read again what atomic sent me on my personalised plan and just found other veggies that are a "dont" in diet. Only a few option now but will fight to keep the work good. I'm currently in 1200 kcal/day.
I'm thinking in Clomid as well.
Doing 5x/week cardio and trainning without weights.
My only problem are the sweets! Sooo hard with this chocolate :)) I was used to eat A LOT every day.
Still have plenty of time until November. Doiiinnggg my best!
Good luck, girls!
Let PINK be our strongest motivation!

See, I am having the opposite trouble. Since af arrived I have had trouble sticking to my diet. I'm just not eating enough. I just feel like I can't be bothered. I have been in a bit of a slump though. I think I might take iron tablets again for a little while. See if that makes any difference.

I'm so sorry Boysway!! I can imagine how you must be feeling- it was like everything was aligned for you to get pregnant last cycle :( I can only believe that there must have been a reason that your baby boy was waiting and that you will be having him soon. It is too bad that these low feelings don't make you want to eat more instead of less. Although I think when we feel a bit low we all start reverting to our most comfortable habits and for girl moms that seems to be eating less. Do you have any comfort foods that make you want to eat more? I can tell you as a boy mom that when I am depressed I load up on carbs and protein. Big cheesy pasta dinners with steak, and dessert for example! LOL Keep hanging in there hun, I've got everything crossed for you this month!

I'm out this month due to vacations. In fact I was so frustrated last month about TTC that I planned a week away with just the boys during the time when I will probably O. I just couldn't take the disappointment of missing it again, although with the way I've been eating it would be terrible to try this month anyway. And I've got my first weekend away with just the girls at the end of the month and I really do want to be able to drink for that too. So overall it is for the best. I'm wishing you all luck that are trying this cycle though!!!

What do you eat every day?


Boysway, it must be something you like and ENJOY eating.
Before my boy, I love Mcdonalds. I know it's not healthy!!! But lotttss of Kcal in :))) icecream, french fries, pizza at 11 in the night :)) lots of coke and sugar everyday.
I was lucky I didnt transform in a cow eating that much :)))) the age, I guess. Was sleeping from 11 until 10-11 morning...what a life :)) Always relaxed!

I think another important thing in all this sway for boys is DTD every night with orgasm after you AF ends until O day.
At least I know how it worked for me.

Don't panic! Just be positive!
Your time will come!

boysway - I think Junie is right. When we are depressed we revert back to our usual patterns. My usual pattern when sad is to stuff my face - I only wish I had trouble eating!

So ladies I'm pretty sure DH and I conceived a boy last night! I thought with the m/c my ovulation would be late (or at least on time) and yesterday's OPK was very pale. I stupidly ate a bad dinner (veggie tacos with 40grams of fat and 30 gram of protein.. EEEK), had big O, no jump and dump, no hot bath for DH, etc. Woke up this morning to a blaring positive OPK and a smiley on the digital one. I thought our real attempt would be this weekend so I didn't really consider last night an attempt, but I guess it was! I am happy we had good timing on our attempt (just one attempt and no need to stress about whether to add another or not!), but I'm quite certain this must be a boy after that bad meal and big O, etc.

Sorry for the long vent, just frustrated with myself. Hopefully the insane cardio and m/c will sway enough to make up for my poor attempt at LE lately. It's just been too hard after the loss to get motivated to eat perfectly again. I feel pretty certain I'm going to get pg from that attempt (knowing you are highly fertile after a m/c), but if not at least I have another month to try to get more motivated to eat perfectly!

Junie
September 17th, 2014, 02:42 PM
Don't worry bluebonnet!! If swaying was only about one day no one would do the diet or the exercise for weeks and months ahead of time. The main thing is how you've been doing on the diet over time and it sounds like you've been doing great!! Good luck this cycle :)

bluebonnet22
September 17th, 2014, 02:54 PM
Thanks Junie! You are a rock star for how long you've waited to TTC while staying on the diet. So impressive !

I'm 90% sure I'm ovulating tomorrow so I guess I will be crazy good today and tomorrow and pretend that it will help (even though I know it's silly at this point and doesn't matter).

Dropping in to say hello and to see how everyone is doing :) I am honestly trying not to synptom spot but I have been feeling somewhat strange as of yesterday. Today mostly but I was very nauseated yesterday with some mild cramping but today the cramping is a bit stronger and my boobies are tingly and with some minor stabbing pains. I hope this is a good sign. Is it possible to start feeling symptoms as early as 5 dpo?

I took a few months off to move into our house and get my 2 older boys settled in school.... CD3 and starting Clomid today. I only took clomid for 1 mth but then decided to wait to use the rest. My Dr wanted to know if I would be interested in 25mg 1x's a day for 10 days (cd3-cd12). Since I O'd really late last time on 50mg for 5 days, they think they were not healthy because they looked to small in the ultrasound. Has anyone heard of this? I don't want twins, only 1 girl, but I am wondering if this may help?

PurplePoet20, there is a risk for twins with Clomid(once you get on board with it, you need to take these risks) but my guess is that is small and maybe for high 100 or 150 mg in more months in the row.
Still, you never know😁

I never heard for 10 days on Clomid. Your doctor said this??
Weird!

Clomid, indeed, has really good results on swaying girls BUT alao boys. It's true the probability it's higher for girls, but you never know.
I would stay strict with the diet and take Clomid and your chances will be higher for a baby girl ❤️

Good luck!

Was hoping to get Clomid for this cycle but I couldn't get on to see my Gyn in time. My poor organizational skills. Do you think I should still try this month. Or wait for the clomid?

The Dr wanted to do a high 150 dose starting at cd3 for 5 days but I have noticed more twins in other forums with that. Other people have taken it for 10 days but the ones that started very low had only 1 baby. the higher doses for that long resulted in not getting pregnant. Also the early it is taken the more likely you are to have twins (like cd1 or 2). Since I normally O on cd15 (but cd19 when I took it cd7-11) I thought cd 3 at 25mg would be a start before going to 50mg. The earlier you start the healthier the egg is and the better chance it has.

I know the risk of twins is still there and also having another boy... but that risk is worth to have a girl. I would go for BG twins but not sure about GG twins! I wouldn't even be trying again if I wasn't ok with having another B.

I am taking it 5-9 day.
My O day is usually 15-16 day.
This is my first cycle on it but we will attempt on the second cycle.
I'm doing ultrasound monthly(after AF is finished untill O) so I can know the exact day.

Girls, for me, it works myfitnesspal verryy good. I set up to 1200 kcal and only eat 2 times/day. I go up to 1500 once a week(usually at weekend when I go out with my hunby and eat at restaurant).
Just set a goal and everytime you want to eat extra, think that you might get the opossite gender. For me it works! I
loose 1kg/week. My attempt is in November and I need to keep the weight for the next week same..else, will loose too much and I dont want to make a mistake exactlly at my attempt.

We made an attempt about 8am. I'm keen to attempt tonight (dh isn't keen though :( ) I'm hoping to attempt tomorrow morning as well. Our previous attempt we only attempted the morning of the +OPK, just like we did this morning. I believe we need to get more attempts in. I'm also not completely happy with the shade of the test line. I think it could be darker.

I have a hard time sticking to the diet during and after the 2ww as well. I always feel disheartened when af arrives and fall into old habits. I'm currently waiting to test and my diet hasn't exactly been great.

I'm currently 9 dpo. I am umming and arring as to when I should test. O was on cd 16 and every other time I have O on cd 16, my LP has been 12 days. I am hoping to hold out till Saturday to test. I tend to see 1111 a lot and for me, Saturdays date will be 11.10.14. I figure it's got to be some kind of good luck. I hope to wait till then.

boysway - very excited for you, hope this is your month!

xx - yes, I always cheat more around the 2nd half of the 2WW and AF. Yesterday was CD2 and we went out for mexican food. I ate vegetarian (cheese quesadilla), but no doubt more fat and calories than I should have. I had 2 margariatas and they definitely lifted my spirits ! Hopefully I will be better on the diet today!

Sarah - I don't temp anymore, but that used to help me realize when I'd ovulated (temerature shift). Now around ovulation time I notice my CP (it gets very low), but I don't consistently track my CM anymore because with LE that's very out of wack. I do get cramping around ovulation. Usually just the day of ovulation, but last cycle it was the day before and the day of. My cramping isn't that painful or anything, more just bloated feeling.

I think you dont have anything to loose just that some cardio would work perfect(if you can do it) and just keep your weight at same level, maybe loose 0.5 kg in the week prior attempt(?)

Sarah, I currently go to ultrasound every day after my cycle ends to be sure of my O but for me pains work every month(had terrible pains on Friday to Saturday and Saturday the folicle break) so I just pray to get my girl from first try.

Been on LE only for 4,5 week now so it means still waiting for my o. I hope I will have my o in one week or something and then at least we're getting somewhere. A little action.

And I too will cheat a little more in the 2 WW.

Cristina, if you decide to do exercises, just do it 5-6 times/week for at least 60-70 min(stepper or like). I do 3 times/week stepper for 70 min(now) - did 60 min for the last 6 weeks and 2 times/week I have a personal trainer who does cardio without weights. I want to go up to 7 days starting next week. When I feel down, I always think at my desired daughter and this gives me power to continue.
Good luck!

October 8th, 2014, 04:11 PM

I had to forgo the exercise as it was making my control issues worse, and I do not have much weight to lose. I do walk everywhere and am very active with my boys.

I have become more strict on the diet, since I had a few more cheat meals in the 2ww. I feel really good about this month! I am glad that it has taken awhile for me to get a BFP, which hopefully equals a decline in maternal condition. As I blow my nose while typing! I am sick pre-o for the second time in 2 months. Hopefully it will only add pink dust to my sway 😉

If you have the time to commit to an hour a day (ideally 6 days a week) I would definitely add it to your sway, even 4 weeks out! You don't know if you will get pg right away anyways and then you'll be that much more ready for the next cycle. As for the OPK question, I'd try to BD that first night.

Yup, Cristina. Just give everything you can. Do it at home for 60-70 min minimum daily. Preferable in the morning on an empty stomach.
4 weeks sounds perfect to me!

And I would try that night when you see the first positive at OPK.

Oh Boysway I'm sorry :(

Hi to everyone else. DH is slowly,slowly,slowly coming around. I'm so desperate to at least get my one try in a cycle and he doesn't get it. EVERYONE (only slight exxageration ;D) around me is pregnant or due any day and I hate that DH is dragging this out. Praying that he will come around next cycle as AF should arrive any day now. I'm sticking to the diet and exercise as best I can but it is hard when DH just won't commit. I never thought it would take this long for him to come around. Sorry for my poor me comments ladies!!! Have not been posting often as my situation hasn't changed but I have been reading and hoping for all of you :)

Junie- my heart goes out to you, and I hope your DH gets on board soon!

I am waiting to try again next onto. AF cd twice 17 days apart. I going to get things checked out to see if things are working properly. I think I have a hormone imbalance that has been exploited more on the LE diet. I had to be put in progesterone while nursing DS1, and o am thinking I do now while nursing DS2.

GL to those waiting to ttc too!

Junie, hopefully dh comes around real quick. Sending much strength your way.

I am currently on CD 12. There is a good chance I may O CD 15-17 similar to the past three cycles 16, 15, 17 if I remember right. I'm really not feeling very 'into' it all at the moment. We have discovered dh's BP is high. He shouldn't take the Viagra with high BP. He is trying to lose weight now which is great. Due to him trying to lose weight, he won't drink the Pomegranate juice and because of the high BP, I am not keen on giving him the Prelox tablets. Goodness only knows if we will actually get an attempt in this month :(

I have been crap with my diet and almost forgot to start having my af-O supps :(

I hope everyone else is doing better then I am.

Boysway, really sorry to hear about your DH BUUUUT give it a try this month. A few more days. Just track the OPK morning and afternoon.
We think at you!
Hope this is your month!

Boysway
October 23rd, 2014, 06:36 AM
Thanks ladies. I am willing to give this month a go it's just whether dh can come to the party (no pun intended), that's the trouble. I want to be pregnant that much, any sane person would skip this month. If I am successful bub would be due around my Mums, Dads and BIL's birthdays (19th, 20th and 22nd of July) not to mention my SIL's birthday on the 31st. I just want to be pregnant already. Over the diet, over the supps, over the weight and the waiting. Ah well, all in good time, lol.

Junie
October 23rd, 2014, 11:31 AM
Boysway hang in there- what parts of the diet are you struggling with? Are there any foods you love which pack in the protein,etc? I would gladly eat for you :D :D!

We just bought a new (for me) 7 seater so now I feel that there really isn't anything preventing us from having a third. DH feels differently but it is CD1 for me so I have a teensy bit of hope that he might come around in the next 2 weeks. I'll probably feel differently in three weeks though! :( I'm just trying to stay patient, patient, patient!!

Junie, why dont you prepare him a hot bath with candles..maybe watch a movie before? prepare him some home made chocolate annddd dooo the dance ❤️ 😁
Especially you have a 7 seats car now, I think he thinks at this idea.
Good luck!

Junie, I am struggling with all aspects of the diet. I haven't been eating enough and not enough of the foods I am meant to. Night shift doesn't help either. You have been very patient, keep it up lovely. I think he may just come around.

I am hoping things are on the up and up for us. DH got his blood test results in and everything was good :) Even dh's bp was normal and he can continue with the Viagra :D Best bit is, he has lost 5 kgs in two weeks. He says he hasn't felt this good for a long time :) I am so happy for him, so happy for us.

Boysway
October 24th, 2014, 05:32 AM
Business woman, I can't speak for the bfp I got with DD#1 as I have no idea how dpo, same with DD#2. With dd#3 I think it was a really good line, I can't remember how many weeks. Most likely 4. I know with DD#4 I got my bfp at 12 dpo and it was a definite bfp. I tested at 10 dpo and had a bfn.

Junie
October 24th, 2014, 08:09 AM
5kg?? That is SO fantastic!! Plus now that he has experienced some success hopefully he sticks with it and keeps losing weight- I bet that will continue to help all the other issues as well. Yay that viagra is OK as well and that the BP is not high. I'm so happy for you both, finally some good news for a change! I hope this is your cycle!! :)

He has done pretty well so far. We did have pizza tonight but it was from a place that does really nice pizza. Not greasy. He also didn't eat anywhere near as much as he usually does. It proves to me whatever he is doing, is working.

My last cycle was 30 days and it is CD 13 for me so I think I am going to do every 4 starting today. CD13 and CD16 should hopefully be right around O. My OPKS look positive for days and even on the diet I still have what looks like fertile CM for a few days and as I am not charting for this baby I'll just have to go with the flow and hope it works out :) Anyone else who hasn't O'd yet this cycle?

Hi ladies. Getting ready to have out first attempt soon. AF has just finished. No idea how long my cycle will be as I've just come off the BCP. Was hoping to get Clomid for this cycle but I couldn't get on to see my Gyn in time. My poor organizational skills. Do you think I should still try this month. Or wait for the clomid?
