Used RepHresh every 3 days starting after AF
Took Zyrtec, was hoping for 5 days but ovulated a bit earlier so only took 3 days in a row with the last one being the night before attempt.
Once I got a positive OPK and decided that I would DTD the next morning, I took half an applicator of Rephresh so that would put me about 8 hours before attempt
Used Sylk as lube during our attempt
Next morning I took
THE DEED INFO
DH Info about Swimmers Abstained
BD Position
Missionary
Did you Jump and Dump? Yes
Any relevant attempt details?
I believe the attemp was on ovulation date
I tested at 6pm on Thursday OPK negative tested 10pm same day positive OPK (could have easily bd then) but I panicked that I caught the beginning of the surge and won't ovulate for a while, so decided to wait till the morning. Tested at 6am and it was already negative :( so we BD then. J & D after 5 minutes
Friday that night I was feeling ovulation pains, so I assumed I ovulated same Dayaks my attempt
My husband abstained for 10 days
SUPPLEMENTS USED
DW Supplements folic acid
Fiber
Antihistamine
DH Supplements Licorice Root
Any additional supplement info?
DH only took Licorice Root for 14 days, I never thought I would ever fall pregnant first mths so I just started him on the sups this mth
Only 2 tablets a day = 900mg
Did you do anything with Ions?
Salt Rock lamp on every night
Wore Rose Quartz bracelet
Kept Rose Quarts necklace under my pillow
Used lavender essential oil daily on my face
Moon Phase during conception?
Last Quarter
Did you use any Old Wives Tales?
Wooden spoon with ribbon unde bed along with pink baby top
Things that make me feel great about my sway:
Being at my lowest weight and having lost a lot of weight prior to falling pregnant
Doing only one attemp as both my boys were definitely multiple attempts
Things that make me nervous about my sway:
Being on the LE diet for 5 weeks (surely there was going to be no chance I was going to fall pregnant first mths but I obviously did)
I felt that Zyrtec did nothing as on Friday night when I was ovulating I had so much stretchy clear mucus (secretly hoping that was RepHresh coming out from the application the night before, but I guess that's just wishful thinking)
Being a couch potato
Things worth mentioning:
I can't ever imagine this baby being anything other then a boy after having 2 boys already.
So far up to week 10 I have felt pretty much the same as I did with my other 2 pregnancies except for one difference, having shocking acne :(
I would love a girl all my dreams would come true but I see my self as only boy mum and I know with all my heart that I will love my new addition no matter what.
Even my handsome 4 year old says, "mummy if this is a boy you will be the only princess in this house" Bless him
