Did you do anything with Ions?
Lavender shampoo/conditioner

Waning Crescent
Did you use any Old Wives Tales?
No. I wanted to put a girl outfit under my mattress but we had just moved into our new house and I did not dig out my hidden girl items yet. Haha
Things that make me feel great about my sway:
Using clomid, One attempt, Breastfeeding, No breakfast and No meat
Things that make me nervous about my sway:
Going over my fat limitations too often. Not doing extremely intense cardio (some days I was just walking fast enough to heighten my heart rate)
Things worth mentioning:
I cannot believe that the clomid helped me get pregnant on the very first cycle! It took 3 years to conceive my youngest DS. I am so excited to be pregnant without having years of waiting. I am just happy to be expanding our family. So far I do not feel like I know what gender baby I am carrying, but I will not be surprised to hear Boy #4.
