November thread for all swaying BLUE xxxxx

Hi Afy,
I bought the Royal Jelly on a website called Biovea. I couldn't find it anywhere in the bee pollen in australia but don't feel that's going to determine the outcome of my sway so got the one's in a capsule. I'm not sure where you live but my local health food shop has everything on my list so if you have a good one nearby, maybe go in and ask them.
Royal Jelly apparently takes a few months to work so you may want to get onto it sooner rather than later. I started my sway nearly 5 weeks ago so I should be on it 7 weeks before my first attempt in a fortnight.
When are you planning to TTC if you don;t mind me asking?
Thankyou for your kind wishes.

Thanks Anchor, I'd forgotten that about the TT! There's so much to take in so appreciate the reminder :happy:

I wasn't sure whether adding anything else in was just overkill or if there was anything in the prenatals that may sway girl. If they sway boy then I will get some today.
Thankyou!

I've been taking the opks for the last few days. Today is cd14. Yesterday and today I have a darker line, not positive but darker, but both times the rest of the day I see nothing. This is my first time using opks, and I thought the LH is supposed to show up in the afternoon?

So....I don't understand what is going on?!?

I've never tracked, charted or paid attention to this before. I've gotten pg easily, and didn't want to get all obsessive. But, then we lost our baby and I'm crazy type A obsessive chick now :/

Hi Adoptapom,
I can't remember the cycle after my MC but I do remember clearly I was very dry while conceiving the month later (I remember because I wondered if it was because of the MC). Subsequently had a DD.
It is too late to do much about anything now if you are due to ovulate in a day or so. Just google pre-seed provider and go get some fast in case you do pop an egg this month.
If you don't and you push through to next cycle, then you have 4 more weeks to up your fish oil, EPO (which will be good post MC) and green tea (2 a day max).

Of course I don't mind you asking I'm looking to TTC April/may time and Ive been on
The HE diet for 2and half weeks now! I'm just slowly getting use to the frequent eating as I'm the type who starves herself the eats lol I havent kept up with drinking the lemon water and im finding it hard squeezing in salads ..
just don't find the space! Would you know the portion sizes we need to be eating I feel like I over do it at times.. i live in New York..thanks for the website
Name I will check it out sometime

I'm right there with you! AF arrived today! I too am incredibly nervous! (mine's a week early though, so I have to deal with some short luteal phase issues. blah!)

I think your plan looks good. I would maybe add -- having the big O (maybe with the preseed and a little baking soda) a few days before ovulation and the day of your attempt.

Also, about robitussin, you'll need to as Atomic for sure, but if you don't have access to Mucinex, I think it'd be ok. $70 is crazy expensive for it!

How much Vit D are you taking and is it the D3? I was reading some articles that atomic and nuthingbutpink posted and the RDA is way low on vitamin D right now and as long as its D3, its incredibly hard to take too much. I've been taking 6,000IU. There was an article linking increased Vit d3 to increased testosterone.

Speaking of testosterone, are you working out at all? I am trying but find it hard to find time. :( I'm hoping my increased D3 will help!

Actually, I'm getting sooooo nervous.
I am doing the following in the next two weeks :

Lots of v8 with gelatin and maca.
Lots of alkaline water with lemon (you can make your own alkaline water by buying spring water from the supermarket and adding a little COT and BSD to it to bring up the PH to about 8.5). I buy 10 litres and add it in and drink it all week.
Fresh juices in between and a big glass of coconut water before bed.
Diet HE. Upping the fruit/veg/meat/bananas/potatoes/tomatoes. Have put on 3kg in the last month through eating lots of good healthy, hearty food and have been conscious of EVERY SINGLE thing i eat.
Am taking maximum doses of :
Fish oil
Wheatgrass caps
Vit D
Royal Jelly
Folic Acid 2500
Bulgarian Tribulus

Have ordered the pre-seed.
Have just bought robitussin home and seen it has saccharin in it!!! Aren't I meant to be avoiding that for a boy sway?
My chemist didn't have mucinex and when I looked online, it was nearly $70!
Anyone have advice on this?

Um...will turn the central air conditioner on the few nights leading up to O, burning Ylang Ylang...think that's all I have in my arsenal.

So what do you think guys?


Would love any final bits of advice, feedback, etc... from anyone.

Praying for an army of :bluesperm::bluesperm::bluesperm::bluesperm::blues perm::bluesperm::bluesperm::bluesperm:

Remember to keep hydrated, you should be drinking at least 2L of water a day. Your body needs something to make the ewcm out of.

becca B6 is good for short LP.

afy you dont need to stuff yourself with the portions, just eat until you are satisfied and make each mouthfull count, lots of protein, drink your veggies in juice if you cant eat them.

Thank you cinns.. Yes I'm drinking carrot juice,V8 juice and we cook vegetable currys just finding it hard to squeeze salads in though I will try my best.. And I'm just peeing soooo much like every half hour, keep rushing to the bathroom even after one glass I was never like this before lol and sometimes I just don't feel like drinking due to the constant pissing lol !!!! :worry:

Are you taking other supps that could potentially move your O?

Also, with Mucinex, I just took it once a day and made sure I was drinking a ton of water, I mean a ton, bc it could dry you out if you don't have enough water. It thins out your mucous but you need to make sure you're hydrated.

Oh and the OPKs, it could depend on the brand. Last month, my positive ones were dark (just barely dark as the control line). I was heavily cramping and had ewcm, so I knew it was right.
