I also took coq10 (ubq), melatonin, pregnitude, cinnamon and cranberry through my cycle. He took OLE until our attempt.
Did you do anything with Ions?
I had a fan on in our room for a few days and diffused lavender ess oil next to bed night of attempt.
Moon Phase during conception?
Last Quarter
Did you use any Old Wives Tales?
No
Things that make me feel great about my sway:
I really tried for low blood sugar levels for much of the day. I don't eat that much or often generally so it wasnt a huge, hard change. I think I may be girl friendly naturally but I didn't want to chance it too much.
Things that make me nervous about my sway:
I was not as strict with diet as my last successfully sway and I didn't lose much weight.
Things worth mentioning:
My Verifi test says it's another girl but it's too soon to see for certain. I took the extra supplements for egg quality since I'm nearly 40 and wanted to try for the healthiest baby I could. Plus side is that they seem to help for a girl and I had no issues from taking them.
