AF is back!

[Hitmebabyonemoretime]

Ladies.... This just got real. Af returned just 5 days shy of one year PP.
I've been lose LE diet and that's it. Hubby is on board to sway, and although timing is kinda sucky - we need to make it happen either by June/July for a march April baby, (sooner would have been better) or wait again so that I can be die anytime between end of Nov- March. This is bc im a wedding photographer and it would be really bad for my business if I had to tell my current clients that I am due at their wedding.
I'm 39 his June and hubby turned 40 last December.
I'm ok with waiting again IF we're crazy to do a quick half assed sway.... But if there is valid reasons that we could give it one shot in June (almost 3 months right?) then I say I sway uber hard.
I'm still bfing a baby boy so vitex is out.
Whatcha all think?

I think going strict for 3 months plus nursing would be an awesome sway!!!

I say try in June/July!

I'm scared to death bc I did one attempt, and was bfing when I got pregnant with ds4. I am sure ️Hoping swift kick in my diets ass is the ticket. I want to read up on supps for Dh again, and maybe fibre for me? I am still overweight :( that's also why I'm nervous / I dropped a lot of weight before getting pg with ds4.

3 months on strict LE is enough time for a strong sway. I'd add in cardio exercise for you (and DH as well if he's willing, both biking & running especially lower sperm count), fibre, and OLE and maybe LR for DH.

Obviously your body & lifestyle (and DH's) naturally sway strongly hlue, so I'm not surprised you got a 4th boy only using 2 secondary/tertiary pink sway tactics. But nursing and one attempt do still sway pink!

I gotta read up on these. He's 40, and I'm 38 (39 in June)
Luckily Dh doenst like meat lately so it's been super easy to cut back an skip out! I know he won't do cardio and the one thing I have zero control over is what he does in his spare time if Ya know what I mean.

Oh and history ds 1&2 are from a previous DH, and he has a daughter from before me; and yet Dh now has only nephews - scaring the crap out of me lol

I have so much weight to lose... Should it not be off before more in advance? I think il start running again, but I might be able to convince him to buy those tow behind Nike carriers for the babies and maybe we can both bike. Oh and he has like zero % body fat. He's 5' 10-11 ish and is 150 pounds.

I keep trying to reply and it won't let me. So in short
Ds1-2 are from a previous (who has a daughter)
My Dh is so lean. 5' 10 150 pounds tops.
He's 40. Can he take those supps?
I think I have high testosterone levels but have no idea what I can do for that while breastfeeding.

We think (and I personally believe) that what the woman does sways the most by far. So while that explains why you keep getting boys despite changing partners, it also means you don't have to worry about what DH does. DH can take OLE, not sure about LR at his age. I'll let atomic weigh in on that one.

Do you have any PCOS symptoms? What is your current height/weight? Weight when you conceived DS1?

Even if you have a lot of weight to lose, 3 months swaying is enough to give you a great shot at a girl. And if you don't conceive right away, then you'll have several months to lose weight by the time you start TTC again.

I don't think you can take anything to reduce T while BFing, but the diet & exercise may help reduce it anyway. Weight loss will help as well. And fibre (how old is DS4? I would not take fibre unless he's at least a year old, just to be sure you aren't shortchanging him).

From bottom to top ds4 is one on Sunday. He's mainly on solids.
Current weight is 138lbs at 5'2, and I was I think 125 when I conceived ds4, but has dipped to 120 just before (lowest since in my 20s!!! But I got there through weights and stuff... Doing the 30 day shred....)

I do not know much about pcos so I did i quick google of symptoms - i can tell you that getting pregnant was always easy for me, and that my cycles were more or less solid as a rock within a few days but through my tracking I learned I had a pretty short literal phase 9-10 days. I've suffered from 2 mc. The only symptom that could really be anything is the hair growth. I have had the hair on my upper lip and belly, and now I think im seeing a soft beard starting (yeck). Hairs on my toes, that kinda thing. That's why I assumed I was high T.

I'm appreciating your help this far lady!!!

I think you probably don't have PCOS. The hair growth is often genetic, so I wouldn't necessarily assume you have high T. I think you're in a great position in the sense that you have enough extra weight to sway long term BUT if you conceive on your first try this summer I think 3 months will be fine too. Win/win.

[Hitmebabyonemoretime]

I'll attempt June and July and then hold off until winter again we're not successful. Basically I can't be due June through sept (even October is risky...) as I have weddings in 2016 already booked! So hard trying to do this without pissing anyone off . I know this mentality could really be stressful so I'm giving myself that 2 month window and trying to adapt a positive

YOu CANNOT wait at 39. You don't have the time to spare. TTC NOW NOW NOW. Do not wait till June (it is, of course, your call to make, I just really don't recommend it when you're not going to be able to TTC for a while after that).

If you've already been on some form of diet, go for it. If you MUST wait, no longer than 6 weeks.

Seriously? I'm not ready!!! Haha! My diet has proved to be continuously boy friendly even though I've been skipping breakfast I've still been eating way too much fat :(

Also is there any value in me getting a plan then? Suddenly I have this sick pit in my stomach. I haven't even been taking folic acid. I just picked it up. Shouldn't I be on that for s few months (all swaying aside)?

I do plans all the time for people TTC the same month they buy one. There are a lot of benefits to it, starting with 15-18 pages of instructions for you and the coaching - which is your own private forum where I answer your q's every day whereas in the free forums I sometimes take a few days to get back to people and PM's I'm even worse on. (for some reason people tend to send me long PM's and it takes forever to get thru them some weeks) It only helps. If you're starting a last minute sway, I take that into consideration.

Plus I really appreciate it as this is my job :oops:

Tell me more about what you mean specifically about too much fat. Many times people have a mistaken belief about what the LE Diet is and are actually doing fine when they think they are messing it up. :)

[atomic sagebrush]

RE the folic, while it's ideal to be on it for 90 days coming into TTC, nowadays so many foods are being fortified with folic that it is really not a big deal if you haven't been on it. Esp. since you ahve not been doing the LE Diet, start now and I personally would have no concerns proceeding with TTC as long as you don't ahve a history of NTD.

I mentioned this in another thread already but I got fed up with BFN and actually quit taking folic and I had a kid with an NTD already, conceived on 800 mcg folic acid (so this was a HUGE no-no for me) and I still ended up with a normal healthy baby. It is by far more important during pregnancy so please no one ever postpone TTC (esp. at 39 or older) because of this. So many foods are fortified with folic now people are getting more than they think.

Guilty for the long ass pm! Haha! Ok tbh im broke with Cuba on the horizon next week but I haven't stopped thinking about my sway and tHT alone is more stress than I believe I should have. Not that I'm being negative, just always on my mind!

Oh and the fat thing - when I was just coming in to the diet I was consuming 60-80gs/day (or more)

Haha LOL that was not directed at any person, it just seems to be the case that I get "War and Peace" length PM's and then they start stacking up and it sometimes takes an act of God for me to get thru them. :)

60 g fat is ok if you're eating 1800 cals or if you have PCOS. Have you read this essay? It may help to get more vegetable-based fats and less animal based and sat. fats. http://genderdreaming.com/forum/gender-swaying-general-discussion/39013-skinny-fats-pink-blue.html

[Hitmebabyonemoretime]

Thank you! I read it. For 15 years I stayed away from cheese slices.... And now, I eat grilled cheeses made with margarine and processed cheddar. I have been better at getting the cals lower and fat lower.(except easter dinner- I opted to eat the tiniest piece of Turkey, but so many saucy/cheesy casseroles that I know it was a high fat dinner and I won't even mention desert lol
