Hi! Sorry, this is going to be long!
I am a mother of two awesome boys (3.5yrs and 13mo), and wife to a DH who desperately wants a little girl! We will be ttcing next month, in August. I am 34, soon to be 35, and DH is 36. I am still breastfeeding my youngest 4-5 times a day on average, and I sometimes nurse more before AF. I have been on the LE diet (PCOS style since I had late onset GD with DS#2), loosely since March, and I have been strict since June. I am weaning myself off of Fenugreek and only taking my nursing tea, pregnitude, folic acid, fiber, and Zyrtec for allergies. I used to take Choline and Inositol and only switched to Pregnitude 2 months ago when I did not get a period. This cycle I started Vitex since my cycle has been inconsistent and mostly anovulatory. Today I got my first +opk :) and hopefully it will be confirmed by temping. I am at my lowest weight since having both of my boys at 123, and I am 5'4". I have lost 28 pounds since this past October.
My concern is I am six weeks from our first attempt, and I have a broken middle toe preventing me from exercising :( Also, should I continue taking Vitex? I feel it has helped me, but am wondering if I should take it for the next 6 weeks then stop at O. DH is taking OLE and Peppermint tea, wearing tighty whiteys, and he is willing to do whatever he can to get his little girl! I just want to know if there is anything else we can or should do. TIA!
