DIET
Did you follow a diet plan?
No
If yes to diet, which one did you most follow?
No diet plan
Comments regarding DW's diet changes-
Due to issues absorbing fats and such my body may have perceived a difference though. With my boys (loss and living) I did not have this issue. I also eat very small portions now so my calories tend to stay on the lower side anyway. But, I pretty much ate what I wanted to.
If diet was used, length of time before attempt?
N/A
Did you skip breakfast regularly?
No
Did DH change his diet with you?
No
Comments regarding DH's diet-
None.. he ate what he wanted to as well. Even when I WAS on the diet he wasn't.
DId you consume alcohol? Occasionally, but not as a matter of purpose.
DId you try to limit caffeine?
No, if anything I was living on caffeine.
Any Diet Details?
Like I said, I ate what I wanted...
Any Diet Comments/Additional Info?
Nope
WEIGHT AND EXERCISE
What did you weigh/BMI do leading up to O?
Not gonna share numbers but I'm not a small girl. I was about 60 pounds from my doctor's goal weight for me. I technically qualify as "obese" on the BMI charts. I neither lost nor gained weight while TTC.
Any Weight/Exercise related additional info/comments?
With this round of TTC any effort to workout ceased and I went strict couch potato
THINGS in VG and CONCEPTION DATE(CD) INFO
pH Before Starting a Sway Program, if known
I remember checking once... think it was a 7 but I can't remember for sure.
Any VG potions used? Nope, not even lube.
CM pH at attempt
No idea
DH pH
No idea
How many BD attempts did you make for the BFP cycle?
4
BD Dates according to Ovulation
O-2, 2 attempts on O-1, O-day
Any additional comments?
We made no attempt to abstain or in any other way make conception more difficult. We had quit swaying and just wanted a baby, boy or girl.
THE DEED INFO
DH Info about Swimmers- he tested fine a few years back but beyond that I am not sure what this is asking
BD Position- missionary, I think... it was the best position for keeping DH's boys/girls from coming out after the deed was done.
Did you Jump and Dump? not really... most attempts I laid there for at least 30 mins
Any relevant attempt details?
I don't remember if I did every time, but no attempt was made to forego my BIG O.
SUPPLEMENTS USED
DW Supplements- Baby aspirin, Clomid
DH Supplements- none
Any additional supplement info?
nope, just BA, clomid and vitamins
Did you do anything with Ions? Not intentionally/to my knowledge
Moon Phase during conception? Waxing gibbous
Did you use any Old Wives Tales? Nope.
Things that made me feel great about my sway: Clomid
Things that made me nervous about my sway: Nothing really, as I said I had stopped worrying about gender and just wanted a healthy baby of any gender.
Things worth mentioning:
Atomic was a great help when we WERE swaying and I am thankful for her and her dedication to this group. However, after 2 losses and a CP in less than a year our only goal was a sticky, healthy baby. We hoped for a girl but would have been equally thrilled with another boy.
Outcome- We are expecting a beautiful, bouncing baby GIRL!!
