no worries Ttcblue :) i love seeing sways too, even though im a pink swayer i find it so interesting to see the blue sways!
great questions kittendreams :) so interesting seeing how peoples lifestyles naturally fell into HE/LE tendencies and then their kids genders lined up with it xx
Yes my hubby has smoked since age 13, now 27.Quote:

I've been drinking a pot of coffee to myself every day since about the age of 15 (it helped me to eat less throughout the day). If I drank anything other than coffee, it was soda. I went back and forth between regular and diet depending on it I was trying to lose weight or not. Never cared for water. So as far as diet, I was not a very healthy person.
I never worked out, I've never been big on any form of exercise, but I was working on a farm from dawn to dusk when my first was conceived so I had lost weight just from being out of the house more and not eating junk all day.
Hey ladies, I have my first attempt coming up soon and I picked up some pre-seed. Does anyone who uses it have a suggestion of how much to use? I see some people say use the recommended amount and others say use just a little so it helps your natural fluid instead of taking over completely.
Thank you so much ttcblue all this info helps so much! Yes you were the quintessential girl mum!!!
I have never eaten like that in my life!
I'm not sure about the preseed but I know that I have always drunk a lot of water and tea and fruit juice for a treat ( I loved Ribena!) and never coffee or soft drinks and always had heaps of ewcm. Now I'm swaying and drinking diet coke, coffee, not so much water and on the minipill I have zero ewcm! Interesting isn't it?
Fx your attempt is sucessful and you get your sweet little bubba boy xx
Thank you kitten, you're so sweet! :) I'm glad I could help!
so excited for you Ttcblue :) fingers crossed you get your bfp soon and its your boy! reading your answer about how you ate with your girls you have made such huge changes with this sway!
im sorry i dont know anything about preseed, if you haven't already start a thread about it, that way all the other blue swayers and atomic will see it :) xx
how long have you been on the LE diet kittendreams? its amazing how it changes your body isnt it! oddly this time around i had AF the month i got bfp switch from usually starting mid morning (say 10-11am) to arriving at night (9-10pm!!) not sure if this means anything sway-wise but it was certainly a change xx
Thank you! And I have made huge, huge changes, but as we get closers to attempt time I'm starting to get worried and anxious and thinking i may have to skip yet another month :worry:Quote:

The more I think about it, the more upset I get and the more I start to resent him for what he's doing. I feel like I'm putting so much effort into this sway and he's ruining it and there's nothing I can do.
:tissue:
:( im so sorry Ttcblue, can i ask where your husband stands in all this, does he want a boy? is he not fussed? or does he want another girl?
its so hard to see this happen with the blue swayers, you guys seem to have hubby issues more as his habits affect blue sways, its frustrating as most of the dads want a boy but wont budge on things!! does his drinking affect your sway? im not sure on drink for hubby with blue sways? mum drinking is a no-no for blue but is dad?
and like you i love small age gaps and always want to ttc ASAP!! i hope you 2 can work this out xx
Hi 4blue! I have been on it for around 2 months but as I'm only 6 months pp I've stuck to the upper limits. I have been vegetarian and skipping Bfast for 4 months now though so I've been easing into the girly lifestyle as the year progresses.Quote:

I think that's a good sign about your Af time changing! It's interesting what the diet does to our cycles isn't it? I'm still waiting on ppaf but I'm curious to see when it does come if it changes from my usual early morning arrival- if it does I'll take it as a good sign!
How long til you find out what you are having? Fx so hard for another little girlie!
