Hello ladies. What are your thoughts on breastfeeding and swaying?
Generally speaking BF sways pink... But if you are down to only a couple of feeds a day it shouldn't matter too much, as long as you are taking lots of supps to up your nutrient stores. You may not be able to conceive easily while BF so you would be on the diet and supps longer giving you a better boy sway.Quote:

On a plus side though in the past I have conceived boys and girls whilst b/f so its no guarantee for either, just another little nudge in one direction which we can sway against:)
I should really update my sway thread as I have added a daily black cherry supp and a large scoop of mixed greens powder which has loads of stuff in it, unfortunately it has flax seed aswell which dried me up last time, but I can honestly say I feel great after taking it in general and hope thstbthe overall energy boost is helping!
Hi everyone, not sure if any one remembers me. I see a few familiar names in this thread. This is my 14th month of ttc and I am approx 11dpo and BFN so I'm feeling let down again and I'm probably not pregnant.
Anyone else in the 2ww ?
Hi Lbam, of course we remember you! wow 14 months now sheesh, have you seen your doctor about it?
No haven't seen a Dr yet cause I haven't been tracking or really ttc properly. Just going with the flow and seeing if it happens.
Cinss - congrats on your baby boy xx
Hi ladies, was hoping to join you all in February, but it is looking like it is going to be March or April for us before TTC again after MC and D&C at 10 weeks :( My dr told me just to wait through one period...so I suppose we could try in March (expecting first period around March 7th). At this point, I am no longer swaying at all, just praying for a healthy baby that sticks. Wishing you all well!
Hey lbam welcome back!! I hope you get a nice sticky bean soon! Are you considering seeing your Dr soon? Maybe it is just something simple that is preventing a pregnancy that won't take much to fix!!
Hi otp I am so sorry for your M/C. You are more fertile after a M/C they say, so I hope you get a quick BFP again!
Woot! I'm here!! Hubby decided that it's time to start the baby making process!! I have an appointment Wednesday to get a referral for my IUD removal. I'm so jazzed to possibly make a boy.
How exciting, best of luck to you!Quote:

Holy shit a brick!! I had a reading done by Cara who says she STRONGLY feels I will have twins....at least one girl! OMG that would be 100% my luck...twin girls!! I also had a reading last year by mis2ninos (the ONLY person who predicted I would not fall pregnant last year and needed to wait to get my desire) who did about 4 readings for me and every time pulled out one boy and one girl card....she also was thinking maybe boy/girl twins.
I think I may die from worry!! 7 kids and working full time may kill me if worry doesn't!!
Oh boy PoP :)
hmm that is interesting. Cara and Mis2 both told me boy, but both had conception dates wrong, Mis2 was closer with that she was just 1 month off. But if my baby comes 2 weeks early it will come in April which is when Cara said i would conceive.Quote:

I am taking supplements, zinc and flaxseed oh also just started L-arginine and green tea I'm also on a boy diet. I seem to not have much luck changing the cm or my ph. Should I change supplements?
I really appreciate your feedback :)
Princess twins!!! I have seven kids four girls biological and three step kids, two boys and one girl. I would love twin boys!!!
Babylee- people have said the l- arginine have dried them up, I would stop taking it and add in fish oil and a prenatal vitamin. I also don't think you need to take zinc I think that is a supp for DH in very small doses
Good luck mms I had an iud as well a couple years ago.
POP!! Twins!! Holy moly!
dloui, thanks I'll try that. :)
dloui, how many mg fish oil?
I took 1000 mg and make sure you drink a ton of water that should help with CM
I was taking 2 fish oils with each main meal so 6 per day which i think worked out to be 3000mg per day.
I'm only taking 1500mg per day now but was taking 3000mg
i also took 3000mg but i know were suppose to take 1000mg..
I'm out :( Can hardly believe it...our attempt was TEXT BOOK this time around. Ah well. Onwards!
:hug2: Anchor it sucks when you keep getting BFN's, wish it was easier and we could all get BFP's on the first try!!
Bummer, i had a few text book attempts ending in BFNs (actually more than a few) through my time, i know how much it sucks!Quote:

I'm sorry Anchor. :(
Sorry anchor. Thinking of you
Sorry about the bfn Anchor, I hope next cycle is it for sure for you xxx
Just to update as I haven't been over here yet, but I got my bfp on valentines day! I ahve been a little worried as have had 2 bleeds already, last one yesterday morning when I got up, pretty red, but then no more through the day or this morning so fingers x'ed its just some kind of irritated spot maybe? I told DH but have asked him to keep it quiet just incase, I cannot stand peoples comments irl when things go wrong kwim, so so far hes kept quiet:) I just want to get to 6 weeks and then he can tell away:)
Best of luck to all :luck::luck:
Hope the bleeding is nothing, ELP! FX for a sticky blue bean!
Sorry for the BFN Anchor.
Sorry anchor prayers for a bfp... Sending some sticky vibes Elp!
Okay I was down to one bfing a day, but Alayna has been really sick and she won't eat or drink all she wants is bf. So a few steps back in our boy swaying. On another note, something odd has been going on with my body I've been having this pulling sharp pain down really low if I cough or laugh it hurts like pressure, could this be a bladder infection? It's really odd. I've also been very tired. I am so scared something could be wrong with me :(
Oh I forgot to mention a twinge that happens throughout the day in my V and also my lower back has been hurting quite a bit.
Now the logical part of my brain knows that psychics have every chance to be wrong and there is a lot of them out there that just purely guess (it is 50/50 and it's easy to get it right when there is only 2 answers). I am doing everything in my power to sway, I won't be dropping my sway tactics and if I fall pregnant I won't feel there was anything else I could have done short of HT. But I have had 4 readings that all say I will conceive in May, or get a BFP in June (which I will get if I conceive in May) and they have all said girl (or twin girls). It's hard when 4 are identical not to get disappointed! I am going to keep swaying hard but prepare for a girl I think.
