Encouraged DH to eat lots of onions, garlic and oats. We eat a lot of garlic and onions anyway though. Also encouraged protein and carbs at every meal and snacking (he eats away from home often but I think he tried his best).

Things that make me feel great about my sway:
The fact that we had 1 attempt and it worked! Also that it was 33 hours after a positive OPK. I also tried to be diligent with diet and exercise.
Things that make me nervous about my sway:
DH was smoking at the time (has since quit) and we have a slightly higher girl ratio on both sides of our families.
Things worth mentioning:
I had drank a fair amount of red wine the night BD.
