Comments regarding DW's diet changes- I was on a strict LE diet for the past 5 months but loosened it up this month since I needed to get pregnant asap. I skipped breakfast as often as I could i am working shifts and have to get up at 4am when i am working 1st shift and there was no way I could make it until 12 without eating something. I had big gaps beetween the meals and limited meat to only a couple times a month and only chicken. Didn´t really pay attention to the nutrients though but I think they were on the lower side.

SUPPLEMENTS USED
DW Supplements
DH Supplements -
Any additional supplement info? I was on Clomid the past 4 cycles but didn´t have any luck so my RE switched me to femara this time. Since clomid has a long half life I am hoping i will still benefit from it´s pink swaying effect. I am also on Metformin 1500mg daily since TTC and took baby aspirin AF-O. Right after O I started DHA, Prenatals and Magnesium, can´t even tell why I did that but I had that gut feeling that I needed to take it.
Did you do anything with Ions? I have a salt rocket lamp on my nightstand and used lavender oil every day. We had our windows open day and night and I was wearing an amethyst ring and necklace. Also tried to paint my nails as often as possible, sometimes even twice a day.
Moon Phase during conception? Waxing Gibbous
Did you use any Old Wives Tales? I put girl clothes under my and DHs pillow and a wooden spoon under my bed. Also the moon was in a female sign.
Things that make me feel great about my sway: -Clomid might have still be in my system, I lost 10 kg and was on metformin. I would check my blood sugar at work and it was always between 70-85 mg/dl which is very low.
-I had only very little CM but obviously better quality than on clomid.
-The moon was in a female sign and all the different calenders are predicting a girl for me this time. I know it´s still only 50/50 but it makes me feel better.
-I had bloodwork done in February and my testosterone was on the lower side whereas it used to be way higher than normal.
- I O´d on cd 16 - as early as never before.
-it took way longer to conceive this time. I got pregnant with DS 2nd round of clomid so maybe that´s a sign for lower fertility=higher chances of a girl?
Things that make me nervous about my sway: I know that diet is the most important part of swaying and my diet was really bad. That´s the only thing that´s making me nervous. But on the other hand I've seen ladies on a perfect LE diet having boys.
