fullredbarn that's how I have been doing it. I have just recently cut back on meat and will be meat free here soon. It was difficult to change my thinking on how to make meals without meat though. Especially sandwiches.

Oh yes don't worry I have had this discussion on my mind for 14 months now... I will not ttc unless I want another baby and not just a girl. I think what has me doubting is that my son is 17months old and at that active into everything stage. It's so crazy! Then the thought of being pregnant makes me weak at the knees and I get excited.Quote:

:) completely understand where u are coming from on that then!!! I have a 15 month old and a 7 year old.. The huge age difference between my boys kind of bothers me, BC ds1 doesn't really like to play with ds2.. go figure! So, I guess reasoning for myself is- although I will be running around like a chicken on the loose some days, at least my 2nd & 3rd kidscan have each other to play with & ds1 can continue playing by himself, as that is his favorite way anyway! ;)Quote:

Can i join you? We are planning on ttc in december/january(finishing my final 3 birth control pill-strips)
My husband doesn't know about my wish and sway.
Because the info makes my head spin, and makes me change plans all the time like some of us experience ; ), i think it is better to let a custom made plan guide me..
I'm excited about our plans!
Ps: i already have the amazing son i hoped for, it would be great if i got blessed with the little girl of my dreams..
Argh! AF arrived a week early... Annoyed but excited as that means its nearly sway time! Annoyed as last Month I had a 34 day cycle when before that I was averaging 30 days and now Ive just had a 28 day cycle so now I can only guess when I will ovulate.
Speaking of, I'm still not really clear when to have this sway attempt. Before or after O?
I'm also annoyed as I've been sick for a few days and had a bad diet so from today I'm back to eating less and upping the calcium intake. Starting with ice cream for dessert :)
Everyone suggested I just make dinner normally and just eat all the sides but not the meat part. That has been working very well for me. I am not very into cooking so I was not going to be making two meals every night. I do think cutting out meat is important for my sway or I would not have. I love meat. Scaling back to very little or every now and then may be enough but I will crave it unless I just don't eat it.
That's so frustrating! Maybe the diet is messing things up? It seems like it could be normal for that to happen once you switch. I would take it as a good sign even though it's frustrating.Quote:

I go back to Dr on December 19 for another test (to check function of my tubes) and possibly either progesterone or Clomid or both!
