Awww, hugs. You know, most people I know with 3 children have a mixture of boys and girls, so you might get lucky even if you do nothing - but you know enough now to do the things which you feel are most important and easiest to stick to without affecting your health. I hope you feel better really soon x

Poor you hun ((hugs)). Health is def more important. Take care of yourself babe

40-50 grams of protein is not considered low protein.

JJ, I am following this on pins and needles, I hope and pray you're better soon.

I could of just had some sort of virus and might never know what is was. I feel a lot better though. After reading some stuff though, I think it could of been all the crystal light and aspartame I was eating. It can cause elevated liver numbers. I will not be drinking this crap anymore.

My husband and I talked last night and he thinks we should still try in July. I have decided to do a more gentler sway and just leave the rest in God's hands. I am not going to poison my body like that anymore. If it is not good for me and certainly can't be good for a baby. I will continue with the calcium, magnesium, saw palmetto, vitex, folic, b12, and baby aspirin. I will drop all artificial sweeteners, stop chitosan, drop cranberry, still maintain low sodium, postassium and reasonable amount of calories, skip breakfast, drink Perrier and just aquafina, and start up exercising again either Saturday or Sunday when I feel better. My goal will be to continue with weight lost. I will also use the lime/water solution, bendaryl and zyrtec, ions and magnets, and a little aci-jel (as a lube) before our one attempt and maintain the Ph with the lime solution after.

Oh thank God. I'm so relieved.

You know, there have been a couple reports online of elevated liver enzymes with saw palmetto...no one has been affected on IG that I know of but you may want to lay off of taking it for awhile.

Thank goodness your numbers are down! I'm so glad you're feeling better. Your attempt, even with the aspartame removed, is fabulous! I'd say you have a very good chance at your girl! xo I hope that your health keeps improving and that your sway in July is great! I'm rooting for you Mama!!

Would it have been caused by chitosan? I know that drug does something with fats I think? My hubby has fatty liver problems and elevated liver enzymes. Just wondering?

NO WAY did Chitosan cause this. All Chitosan is is a fat absorber/fiber supp. It's NOT a drug. I would take Chitosan all day long.

There are many reasons for elevated liver enzymes and if swaying did have something to do with it, my money is either on stored toxins released from your body fat when you lost weight or else the SP.

FWIW Michaela also had some strange liver readings after she lost a big bunch of weight and you might want to PM her and ask.

So glad your tests came back okay. I actually ate some food today, and it felt good. I am going back on my diet tomorrow, but if I don't get pregnant in the next 2 months I am coming off of it. My body just can't handle it.

Praying you get a healthy baby girl!

Okay had no idea exactly what chitosan was except that it was mentioned to do something with fat absorption. Now I know. Thanks. :)

Glad your ok!!!! How scary! I pray you get a healthy baby girl
