Comments regarding DW's diet changes- My diet was pretty good before I started my sway but I cut down to 2 cappuccinos a week and none the week of O.

2 eggs every day.

Things that make me feel great about my sway: Diet and exercise were pretty consistant, I've tried the full on 100% sway before (twice) and it didn't work so I'm glad I didn't stress about doing EVERYTHING but chose what I could stick with consistently.
Things that make me nervous about my sway: Dh wouldn't dtd when necessary and I thought it was too late! Possible infertility due to testosterone replacement therapy. Forgot the robitusson and coconut water
Things worth mentioning: Dh was taking hcg for a few weeks a month or 2 before bfp.
