Things that make me feel great about my sway:
Losing weight... Smallest I have been in a long time! No lifting weights, Skipping breakfast, One attempt, Already have had two successful girl sways,
I lost my mom completely unexpected right after Christmas... so January was full of grief, sadness, loss... this is the main reason that I decided to go ahead and sway again because I realized that I may not get the chance to again... Life is too short.
Things that make me nervous about my sway:
The only thing I'm really nervous about is eating too much protein and having much EWCM at our attempt.
Things worth mentioning:
I am a carrier of an X-linked genetic disease that I only affects boys - that's why I sway for girls : )
