Hi-
I am planning to try in August! I would love to try in July, but have only been on diet 2 weeks and really want to give it 6 wks. I have lost weight already by skipping breakfast and trying to eat 2 meals (no meat) with 1-2 snacks (I am usually starving - only thing that keeps me sane). I too, have two boys 4 & 2 and this is our final one. I plan on having DH do FR 7-10 days before, DTD o-3, o-2, o-1 and on O day. I bought Vitex and will take it with next AF-O, already taking folic and baby aspirin, my DH will also start LR with my next AF. I bought Rephresh, never used it, so I am sure will be asking a lot of questions the days before my attempt. I will also take Zyrtec or something the days before too.

hi awesome mom! me too with the boys! mine are 5 and 2, last prego for me also. lets go pink! lol. have you been monitoring your ph? diet and ph are most important factors ive read
-
hi sosapop, welcome! love boys eh! gotta get our girls tho!! sounds like you got an awesome sway planned!! have you been checking your ph?
-
Well I checked it right before O this last time, and often times the ph stick wouldn't change...don't know what that means, and then I did get one that looked like it fell between the 4-5 range. How about you?
-
hi all, i havent even started checking as wantd to get the diet under way first..what do you mean by dtd o-3 o-2 o-1 and o... i thought the best chances were o+12hrs?? i get soo confused..i may try the baby asprin now as you all seem to be trying that, i havent cut all meat out entirely of my diet but i have cut down, im already loosing weight so im guessing this is good? right girls lets pray for our daughters good luck everyone xxxxxxx:bowdown:

Hi awesome mom-
According to Atomic timing does not matter, read her posts and some of the women who had successful girl sways. Many became pregnant with a girl on O day. On in-gender site, I was on this site in the very beginning, they seem to stress O+12, but after finding gender dreaming it seems like timing doesn't matter and diet is really the most important. I am really trying this route and hoping & praying! I LOVE breakfast, but no longer have breakfast just have coffee and then lunch at noon and dinner, but I squeeze a couple snack in between which am really trying to cut out once get closer to August.

hey girls, if your testing ph and strips dont change, could mean you have low ionic strength, or those particular strips arent efficient at testing vaginal secretions. I agree, timing seems to be least likely sway factor. I think that diet and supps and ph are most important. Although i do wonder sometimes if we really have a choice at all lol. Skipping breakfast is a constant struggle for me and this diet sucks! I just want steak and potatoes sooo bad lol. Hopefully get a bfp end of july, still got AF right now. Pink dust to us!

Heart Flowers, what does it mean to have low ionic strength?? Please tell me it's a good sign and sways pink :)
When I first bought them and was checking I could usually tell, but now all of a sudden not so much.
I agree, not a fan of the diet even if it is more generous than the IG diet. I just want cheeze-its!!! And they were buy one get one at my supermarket today :(
-
low ionic strength just means those test strips arent sensitive enough for you, may have to try another brand. when you look, tell them its for vaginal cm, they should know which ones to get for you. the temptation is the worst eh!

Hey girls! I plan on TTC my girl in August. I have two boys ages 5 & 2. This will also be our last baby. Seems like a few of us have boys the same ages! I am doing LE diet, saw palmetto, vitex, baby aspirin, fiber, & folic acid. I've been on the diet for about 4 wks. Skipping breakfast gets much easier! I drink lots of carbonation in the morning & my stomach thinks I'm full. I will start SP & vitex when my June AF gets here any day. I've had to wait for them to be delivered. I bought a Hanna digital pH test & I tried it once & can't tell if I did it right. Anyone know best way to do the Hanna digital test? I know I'm supposed to wait until close to ovulation because that's the only pH that matters. Pink dust to us all!!!
