Comments regarding DW's diet changes- Started diet march, I was never really heavy of weight (52 kg) so I had not that much to loose, I was eating everyday almost the same food when I was at home (which I was most of the time) which consisted of a coffee with milk in the morning, 120g of pasta with green beens, at the beginning leek ( I got sick of that taste so I stopped that), later I added a little red ball pepper and some broccoli to it with one half tablespoon of sunflower oil and a little piece of low salt cheese and a spoon sour cream with no salt. Desert was everyday a bowl of vanilla icecream and some cookies, I usually ate around 11 . My second meal of the day was at 4.30 in the afternoon and consisted of a 125 g of basmati rice with no salt prepared and a low salt piece of bread with jam and butter and some wheat puff rice cereal with no added vitamins and low salt.I used milk in it and sometimes had a small yoghurt after. My fat was usually under 30, sometimes less ,once per month it was 45. My protein stayed under 50, I only had some chicken 4 times since march, never ate read meat. We went to dinner a few times and I had a salat or more pasta. My daily calories were at the beginning around 1300 but I went up to 1500 or 1700 later so I would not go down that fast. I dropped weight easily and found myself at a BMI of 19 in summer. I started incorporating breakfast 3 times the week late summer because I wanted to make sure I don`t loose weight any further but I never ate later then 5 or 6. I did not snack at all in between. Had a glass of white wine 4 times the week towards the end. I still lost more weight with no exercise and concieved with a stable BMI of 18.5 which was around 46.90 Kg for me. This diet was very different of my usual diet. Since I concieved I gained already 6 pounds, because I am costantly hungry and eating all day long...

Any additional comments? Had an ectopic in february after a FET with my precious PGD girl :sad::sad::sad::sad:that damaged my right tube which was saved but all doctors told me not to try if I am ovulating from the broken side. So my doc monitored me for the entire year and told me when to try. Unfortunately I got pregnant from the broken side with a 0+12 in may which resulted in my first chemical. After that I ovulated all summer long from that side and I had to wait. In august my doc gave me clomid to change sides which resulted in two egg ovulating from both sides. We decided not to try that month because I was terrified of having another ectopic and a healthy pregnancy at the same time. but my doc refused to do a back to back clomid and since it was by then october I decided not to do it because its a boy month.But then I felt bad and we did another 0+12 with pull out which resulted in another chemical. So basically I was pregnant 3 times this year plus this one. In november he gave me clomid 3-7 and I ovulated two eggs from healthy side.
THE DEED INFO
DH Info about Swimmers- Hubby has a high count of 120 per ml!!!! we got that tested at fertility clinic before. We also tested how the count changes after frequent release. It went up even more and very motile....
BD Position Missionary
Did you Jump and Dump?
Any relevant attempt details? Hubby released three days before attempt because otherwise it would have been 7 days and I was worried because he is 40 years old and smokes. I did first a jump and dump ( nothing came out) but then felt guilty and laid flat. Hubby took a hot shower before. I did not O at all. had no visible CM but I wasnt dry either, wasnt painful at all...I used to have a lot of CM in the past. Since my first round of clomid in august I had no more CM in my pantyliners ever again (sorry TMI). Hope that means something....

Things that make me feel great about my sway: My diet was really different to my usual diet, I have concieved on my lowest adult weight. I have elevated FSH (12) because of the high folic acid was taking ( thats also the reason for twinning) and low estrogen due to diet and vitex which is supposed to sway pink.
Things that make me nervous about my sway: Hubbys count is very high ( 120) which makes me worried that he should have pulled out, but we only had one attempt. All boys were concieved with multiple attemps. The first one we bd 6 times in a row. When I compare myself to other women I realize the girl mums do have a bigger butt so maybe that had something to do with it. My butt is tiny but doc checked several times and I do not have elevated T levels.
Things worth mentioning: My doc was very happy about how well my body reacted to clomid. I did have a pefect lining and two big follicles and 6 small ones. For my age (38) he said it is pretty good. I am so glad I can eat what I want now....I did my best I think....
