That's really nice!

Congrats WP, sending you thoughts for a sticky bean!

Tink, prayers for your bean to stick, too. How exciting to be PG at the same time as your cousin! I was PG with my cousin for DC2 and it was a lot of fun.

That's crazy they made you prove so much to get your u/s, all I had to do was name my midwife lol

Lola - kudos on your pee restraint, after all this time not wasting anymore tests is a silver lining :)

Dreamblue- vit d- studies were done with cows where supplemented cows produced more male off spring then the unsupplemented ones. Here's the theory, more boys are conceived in the fall after the bountiful harvests and sun soaking behavior of the summer. Increasing your vit is another way to trick your body into thinking conditions are favorable to produce the frailer male fetus. On a personal note after dd3 was born I found out I have a severe vit D deficiency and have been taking supplements ever since. My mother, who also only had girls, carries a massive deficiency as well. You may want to get yourself checked, I'm a big believer in this one.

Kris- It'll probably be way cheaper in Reno as everything is more expensive in California lol What hotels, I'll find ya a close place and scope the prices :) Can you tell I used to work in travel lol

ooh WP!

Thank you so much Begiona and 3P1B. It makes perfect sense to me. I hardly ever go in the sun. The only sun I get is when walking 2 and fro from parking lot.

Hey, I have a vitamin D question! I get 100% in my Prenatal. Is that enough? 3P1B, how much were you taking?

dreamblue- You are so welcome :)

Hobber- Normal levels of vit d should be 25, mine came back at like 8 so extremely low. I had gone through high dose therapy a couple of years ago but was taking 5000iu per day while ttc. I currently take a 1000iu per day on top of my prenatal, ok'd by my midwife.

Holy crap! Is it too late to up mine? My attempt is in a few weeks...

WP, very excited for you and Tink! We are going to ttc again in a few days here. What are everyone's thoughts on the O-2 BD? I can't decide if it's something I want to do or not. DH is clueless. I love the discussion about loads of D3 helping conceive boys. We will definitely be trying that!! Love and blue dust to all!

Personally I am not going to do o-2 (unless I mess up pinpointing my O) and try to BD once as close to O as possible. If we believe in X and Y characteristics as to speed and life, X will survive longer than Y and I am afraid that we might be increasing X's by doing O-2. Love to hear other thoughts

MFC - What is RJ/BJ? what is that for? What does grape seed do? I have seen grape seed cooking oil while shopping groceries this weekend and wondered if that's a good switch... I am just afraid of taking so many supplements so I am trying to get as much as possible through food..
