About Maca? IMHO it might be a good idea for mean only and for us Wheat Grass juice or Green Magma.

I often think about quitting the whole idea about 3rd child. But it's better to regret something you've done then something you haven't, right?
Why do you want to stop trying:
- you are functioning great like family of 6 and don't need any more?
- not enough space & money?
- DH is not full on board?
- you are afraid you will get another girl?
- all this combined?

Well all this are my reasons, esp the 1st one, we are doing great like family of 4 ( just our family make up sucks :rofl:) and my greatest fear is that I will ruin our harmony with another baby. That is what astrologist told me when I visited her before DD 2 was born: if you want a 3rd, it will be boy for sure, but very difficult child and he will ruin your life :worry:

I just laughed and said: oh, no each child is a blessing but a bug remained in my mind :worry: How ultimately stupid is that and what she knows in the 1st place.....

And of course, we don't have enough money, nor space, nor time....DH said to me few times he feels we are done and we are complete as a family. He never wanted 3 kids :sad:

At this point, I *think* I will be OK w/another girl, I have few names I really like for her ( boy name was decided before DD1 was born :sigh:)

I'll keep trying until I hit 40, and then I'll stop. It's a year and a half away, hopefully I'll get pg before that, but with all that swaying, I'm thinking: maybe my body is just not designed to conceive a boy :think:

Flava I think this is a good Q for Atomic. On the Q re: selenium I have no idea, and I'm not doing Co-Q10 either so no opinion there either, sorry! I do take D3 because it is another one that is considered "good for health in general" but specifically for bone/immunity health. I'm honestly not sure how it fits in the boy sway other than the "more nutrients, better overall health = boy" idea.

I'm so sorry you're struggling so with the #5 idea! It is a tough decision and certainly well worth thinking through over and over again, for sure, so I think it is great you're weighing it out. Because it is life changing for your family and the baby-to-be. For me when I think about #3, and about NOT having it, the appeal is that if we don't have another, we know what we've got and we know you we can handle it and it is what it is. But TTC again means so many unknowns, and unknowns can be exciting but also scary! Only you and your DH know for sure what the right answer is. Like Lola said I just hope you can come to a decision you are at peace with!

Welcome back 3PNB! Sounds like you're in a good place right now and that is fabulous. Looks like there will be a nice little group swaying in a couple of months!

My mind has gone blank! I wrote the post to Flava and then started this one and then the girls needed snacks and now I come back and can't recall a thing I was going to say. I have to go re-read. Sheesh ... I need some supplements to help with my memory recall.

Princessap I'm sorry you're out this month :-( To answer your Q I think timing has crazy, massive amounts of studies behind it. The thing about the studies is they can go either way ... so IMHO timing just isn't a big deal, at all. I do however think if you know what you did for your DD's I would do the opposite, and it sounds as though you know what you did for the DS you lost, so maybe just try to mimic that again.

Lola if you don't mind what supps are you doing now? I know you mentioned antiox type stuff so I am just curious.

Hooray for the job TTC5! I'm happy you're excited about it, and it sounds like a wonderful position with helping out little ones. Hope it goes very well :-)

zivic I think I just leave the maca alone. How can some1 say a baby will ruin your life? That astrologist was stupid .All tehy do is guessing game anyway don't believe it!
I have all this reasons you say here...plus I have to do it all by myself because DH is working and there is no1 else to help.
But if maybe just maybe it would be a boy then all worth it. ehhhh so hard!

For reals ZB ... we've had a boy name picked out for like, a decade now, LOL :-) Girl names I have a couple ... but nothing I love yet.

begonia thanks! Im thinking to try this CoQ10 because it highers the sperm count so good and so would be great for ttc boy.
But wanted some help on it first. I think atomic only have time on thursday or so she said...

♥ My approach: Diet including lots of sodium, potassium, protein, lemon water constantly, and very little sugar (way different than normal)
Supplements include Iron, B12, Lots of FA, Fish Oil, Vit E, Mucinex (1200/day)
Using OPK, Preseed w/BS, and Shettles timing and position method
Started P90X to increase muscle mass (have none currently)
And last but most importantly in my opinion, I WILL NOT be jumping and dumping, as was successful for two girls (I had NO IDEA that would sway girls but I'm a believer!)
I <3 GD!

Adding now! x

DH didn't wanted another one...it's hard for us we have nobody to help ever, we are always alone. We never go out or anything...Im sure he just said yes because he want a boy .But what if it's a girl ? ( more likely I think) then we think why did we tried we where just fine with 4 girls. But then again this sound so awful...like Im mean or something...and I love my girls I always wanted girls. Just not 5! So it's very hard to decide what to do.super scared...

This is like us! We never go out either, ever!

Thankyou! Has come at perfect timing. The day DH left work to study for the next too years so will help with the finances!

I wonder if Skrimpy had her baby girl?!?! It has been a few days since I've seen her but I've been scarce around here for a few days myself. I am ready to see some baby pictures :-)

How important does everyone think timing is?
The only things i really was doing to sway was timing, 4 day abstinence and diet changes.
When I conceived DDs I drank milk and crystal light like crazy! I have since cut them out and only drink lemon water and no dairy. hoping it helps.
I am sooo disappointed that it is taking this long. It has been over a year now with an early m/c and 14 week loss in there. it sucks.

---

Over a year! I don't know that I could hard core for a year. It sounds like Diet and Supps are the most important aspects of sway. Timing seems to be heavily debated. I know Atomic has a sticky on that somewhere.

Sorry! I'm with you but not a year, so sorry.

Anyhow I will likely wait til September at the earliest, only b/c we agreed not TTC until we get moved into the new house. But if not September definitely October, because for some weird reason I *feel* like that will be our boy month, LOL! I would have in some ways loved another accident baby ... DD1 was such a surprise and she's the best surprise ever, so I would probably shake my fist at God while he laughed at me had I gotten a BFP. 'Cause now I totally get that my plans aren't always the best :-) How badly did you go off the diet in the 2WW?

---

Soon after started Starbucks again, got laxed about eating 1st thing. didn't do meat 3 x's a day and didn't track potassium or salt......so basically completely..badly...which seems to be the most important thing.

But I was soooo good last time! :tissue: Totally messed up in the 2WW but it could take more than 2 months and I'll have chance with month 3??? But I don't want it to take that long. I'm trying to be really good during these next 2 weeks from AF-O so hopefully I haven't changed everything I worked so hard for in the EWCM during the last 2 months +. We'll see.

I am so sorry, ((HUGS)) I would drop timing ..Try what Aqua did, 4days cut off O-2 then again with 2days cut off on O day!!!

Ok.. I am on swaying hold lol but still following general diet and supps just not as hard core! I have landed myself a job, although "relief" it is great and keeping my mind of swaying while we have a full house here. I am doing relief TA with school children and in particular those with special needs/disabilities. Thoroughly enjoy it :)

---

Great, I would wait too. Hopefully you will sway in best time hun.

Flava, I understand how you feel hun, but I'm thinking chang things hopefully will help to get your little boy?! You are swaying differently this time. A lot of us got boys I hope and pray you will. And there are some ladies who sway twice and got boys twice, I would follow their attempt just to get more info on how to make your sway more successfully see what they did, even though I know it's not guaranteed it, but at least try harder. If you think you can do this do it IF not do, not it's really up to you, I wish I can help :( XOXO.

Dh and I have decided to take a break until my periods even out. The emotional roller coaster of late O and late AF is getting to me. I realized the other day that it's not swaying I'm sick of it's my own body screwing with me that I'm fed up with. I'm going to keep opk'ing just to be sure I continue to O but we have decided to wait at least two cycles before we try again, so I'll be joining you July/Aug swayers!

---

Me too Jen!!! I can't even make an attempt :( CM is creamy and no +OPK yet, I'm on CD 23. My cycle is really messed up, am really sick of it. I'm going to wait, but until now, I still don't know when to try :think:

I hope that your cycle gets back on track soon:luck:

We went out yesterday and buyed all new underwear for him .Super thin boxers 1 size bigger what he really need so it's all comfy no squeezing around there anymore lol. Oh and I made him throw out all the old ones :rofl: and he did it so I guess for now he want's to try.:suprise:

MFC, can you say the timing again but dumb it down 1 more time, real slow like, about the timing to ttc boy. I want to make sure I get this right since I thought I'd try 2 x's instead of just once this month

I don't have a girl name. My DH picked out our DD's names I never care. My DH named my DD2 at 2 days old. My second pregnancy was sad and I didn't care about name, etc (GD sucks:() but I have many boy names and I am glad to say I used one.

ZB, We have the money, but we are not rich, but we can handle DC#4, We have place too, but the only thing I am worry about is the difficult child. My son is NOTHING likes my girls he drives me crazy. I think boys are different then girls.

Two attempt. Ovulation -02 so that's two days before ovulation with a 4 day abstinence. And BD on O day with a two day abstinence.

I can totally relate...I gained 5 kg and I'm closer and closer to my weight when I was 9 months pg w/my girls http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/smiley-sad050.gif

Anyway, I want to share smthg w/you guys....
This morning I ran into a sort-of-acquaintance lady ( our daughters are going in the same kindergarten) and she is very obviously pregnant lol! She has 2 girls already so I immediately asked is this baby a boy or a girl :p
Guess what....It's a boy....they allegedly wanted 3rd girl (:sigh: right...Are you buying that story?) I was beyond jealous, she didn't even sway and I already spent a fortune on supps etc :hair: And she is younger than me ( well everybody is, I should get used to that fact :D )

I felt like this http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/smiley-taunt003.gif like she was deliberately trying to hurt me ( how disturbed am I ?)

It was so hard to say: Congratulations....:sad:

But I got new motivation, like- just wait I will get my :DS:too. Hmmm, this doesn't sound healthy lol!

I watched a fantastic programme on BBC about conception, it was so interesting to find out that over 220 milion sperm are ejaculated & only about 20 survive the journey, we also have about 20% chance of falling preg each time so if you really think about this it shows that it isnt that easy to get preg

It's good to know I'm not alone:hugs:
I'm praying you get your baby boy asap! :ttcboy:

Zivic, you crack me up! I think we all just sensitive to anyone having a boy without even trying for one. I think it's the time & money we've all spent that's getting to us now

One thing i wanted to ask, are you still taking DHEA? I dont know if that's what made my period much lighter this month, i usually have AF for 4-5 days but this time it was like a full day & half then just spotting, strange..
