Would this be crazy?

We weren't on any special diet or supps, just trying to do a shettles cutoff like we had done with our previous m/c a couple of months before.

So since it depletes the body of mostly boy friendly nutrients should I try to sway this month? Or stick to the original plan of July?

If I got pregnant this month, I would not have the problem of my vacation in the Caribbean.

AGH I wish I had seen this sooner (curse this new schedule) but being sick totally sways pink regardless of the electrolytes. I would go for it.

If it were soon, I would say it might be a good idea. I do have a girlfriend that got preggo with her third(first girl) during a very bad flu where she ate basically nothing for 6 days straight.....it was an oops pregnancy because she thought that she had ovulated on CD14 like usual, but her sickness pushed back her O date by 5 days, so when she felt better she just DTD like usual with her hubby and whamo! Baby girl on her way!
If it were me I'd most likely just go for it but I'm kinda terrible at this sway stuff:) LOL

Kynzi (the lady who discovered O+12) also conceived her DD when she had the stomach flu. I tend to think the flu did the swaying and the O+12 was just a coincidence.

I sort of feel like this might be an optimal chance to give it a try, but like I said I would do at least a 2 day cut off and I have a feeling that will be too long of a cut off for me anyway.

Oh I just don't know. I have a week to figure it out I guess.

Oh PHEW thank goodness you still have time. YES please try this month! I think it will only help your sway. GL!!!!!!!
