Did you use any Old Wives Tales? Box of girl clothes under bed, scissors and wooden spoon and pink bow under my head in the mattress. Tried to sleep on my left side if I was thinking about it.
Things that make me feel great about my sway: Only one attempt at fertile time!
Things that make me nervous about my sway: I feel like I don't know what I'm doing with the diet because my weight never goes down despite starving myself. Then I tried more of the fertility diet but I felt like I was pushing towards blue friendly. I'm hopeless at exercise. I'm worried I wasn't off my vitamins for long enough. I didn't skip breakfast long enough etc. And the worst...my multiple O's at attempt.
Things worth mentioning: Tried Rephresh last month and got some horrible yeast infection like issue. Tried Saw Palmetto at the beginning of the month but it made me spot so I dropped it. I conceived my DD the month after I was on Vitex and this time was the month after Vitex too.
