I ran or did the elliptical about 30 minutes a day. I couldn't do an hour/day, but I hate not working out at all. I would've been very unhappy being a couch potato.

Did you do anything with Ions?
No, but used a lot of lavender products
Moon Phase during conception?
Full Moon
Did you use any Old Wives Tales?
I did have a girl outfit under my bed…silly, but couldn't help myself.
Things that make me feel great about my sway:
I used to eat cereal or oatmeal every day for breakfast. Ate very healthy, lots of meat, dairy, protein. I also used to take a probiotic every day, and ate small meals throughout the day. This was definitely a different eating style, although I didnt lose any weight. Glad we were also able to conceive using the Rephresh, antihistamine, and Sylk.
Things that make me nervous about my sway:
I had a hard time not snacking, even though they were small snacks. I worked out only 30 minutes a day, and was getting plenty of calories. Didn't feel like a 'low cal' diet. Still ate things others avoid, like potatoes, tomatoes, garlic.
