My sway hasn’t even got started and I’ve found out today (period due yday, didn’t feel pregnant but tested) that im pregnant, it’s great news but I wish we’d have waited til the new year when I could have put more into my sway.
I’d like to tell you what I did and didn’t do and I appreciate you can’t tell me if I’ve done enough but would like to here your comments if you could.

Things that I believe will have gone against me:
I don’t know when I ovulated

My husband has been working away mon-fri and we moved to this house in June so I’ve been frightened at night and really panicky which will no doubt have raised my stress hormones

I don’t eat LE enough - I never snack and I don’t eat huge meals but I have been having eggs, fish, beans etc

Things that hopefully went in my favour

I get lots of broken sleep thanks to my 2yo

Just this last week (week 3/4 of my cycle) I have had lots of terrible mouth sores under my tongue, on my tongue, roof of my mouth and all over my soft pallet which the doctor said Was due to either hormones or vitamin deficiency - let’s hope the vitamin deficiency helped me.

I drink lots of coffee

I don’t eat breakfast

I don’t snack

I have been taking vitex til O for the past 4 months

We have only had unprotected sex twice - 7 days apart

I have lost a bit of weight

Please feel free to comment!

First off congrats! We can't tell you what gender your baby will be unfortunately. You did have some pink factors going for you so that's good. It's not a guarantee though and I'm sure you know that. I don't want to give you false hope because I know how much of a letdown that can be if it doesn't work out. Individual foods don't sway and eating fish, beans, and eggs are perfectly fine on LE so don't sweat it. Congrats again on your pregnancy!

Congratulations :) coffee, no snacking, limited bd which will have left you with only 1 attempt are all strong parts to any pink sway, dont beat yourself up about getting bfp before you had chance to sway, wishing you a happy and healthy pregnancy and fingers crossed for pink xx

Thank you both for your congratulations, I really appreciate it. I know no one can guess I just love hearing your thoughts since I never got the chance for a rate my sway post! It’s nice to “say” it too as there’s only me and my husband who know!
I know we’re not meant to put any stock into timing but I wanted to DTD on positive opk and I think it was either 3 days before or 3 days after :/

Thank you both for your replies ❤️Xxx

I have 31/32 day cycles, we DTD on cd14 unprotected and pull out (I know I know) on cd19/20 and I assume that OV was on CD18

I put on my app that on CD 21 I felt unusually hot but didn’t actually use opks ����

that's not the kind of stress that sways blue though. If anything that would only sway pink.

You ahve a lot of pink friendly stuff going on, I'd still consider that a sway! Please do an add your sway anyway if you would like to!!!

Oh Atomic, I’m so happy to hear that, lets hope the bits of pink were enough! I may brave adding it as a semi sway now you’ve told me this!! ❤️❤️

The "semi" sways tell us WAY more about what works and what doesn't than the knock down drag out ones. I want EVERYONE to do an add your sway (who wants to) because that is the only reason why we know as much as we do.

If everyone put up the exact same identical sways with the exact same 30 things on it we'd never know what was even working! :) So yes please please if you can

thanks!

Re Ramzi, after seeing several people send Dr. Ramzi $10 to guess their ulturasound and he guessed wrong, I can't believe in that any more. But lots of people do like to guess thm so post in our ultrasound forum!
