Comments regarding DW's diet changes- I followed the LE diet. I had two meals a day (skipping breakfast) and cut back on protein and sodium. I did still have some meat (DH is a massive meat eater and refused to cut out meat totally, and I won't cook two meals) but greatly reduced from what I normally have. I drank mostly water however I did drink normal coke as empty calories, I can't have artificial sweetener as it messes up my cycles (not what I need when we're TTC!) and gives me a migraine.

Things that make me feel great about my sway: -
Things that make me nervous about my sway: I was really happy with my diet leading up to O - I was feeling quite light in the belly and not bloated which was great. I was also happy that I was 3kg lighter than I was with DS. Plus I was happy with the timing - we had a reverse Shettles with DS (he was 3 days before O) so to get an attempt on O makes me feel good.
Things worth mentioning: Once I ovulated my diet wasn't as good which makes me a bit nervous.
Atomic, this may sound crazy but I’ve been reading about moon phases… I have a ‘red moon cycle’ currently which I didn’t used to have. Meaning my period is coinciding with the full moon. From...
