Oh lord lol is egg whites good tho because there's not too much nutrition? How much caffeine are you suppose to have then? Thank you I guess I've been reading old posts.. I was going to make a post about this but on my phone idk where to do it I can't find anything that says new post..
Eggs whites are full of protein so I'd limit them. Have coffee any time as caffeine sways girl. Have it for breakfast or as a snack in between meals. [emoji5][emoji5]Quote:

I understand that other sites claim alcohol and coffee sway blue but we have outstanding results with both.
Sudafed is NOT SAFE for women of childbearing age as it has been linked to strokes in young women particularly when taken in the way that other sites suggest you take it. It is fine for a person to take if they have a medical need such as sickness or whatever, but swaying is taking a risk for dubious benefit (and yes it does cut odds of conception)
First and foremost thing is sticking in the limits. YES YOU CAN have eggs and egg whites, both are fine, stick in the limits of the diet and you can have any foods you want in those limits. The warning about eggs in LE Diet is not due to protein but because some sites claim that eggs are magic girl foods and people were eating a dozen eggs a day. Eggs within limits.Quote:

It is fine if you want to limit those but be sure you're getting a minimum of 2500 mg of potassium a day from somewhere, if you don't get that much, you can become very ill or even die if you get too low in potassium. Most of us did continue eating them - at least potatoes and apples and tomatoes. Makes it way easier to stick with diet when you do.
I never recommend lime tampon, have info on the site for those who want to use it.
Sylk is at your discretion, but I would never add that in for someone who wasn't getting pregnant. I generally have people start off with a strict sway and drop things over time so we don't have people going on for years not conceiving due to swaying too strictly, only to panic and drop everything all at once (and even sway blue!) just to conceive. Slow changes over time = best results.
Not caffeine necessarily but coffee. Any more than what you have had is fine. If you were having no coffee, have 1 cup. If 1 cup, have 2. Most will want to not have any more than 3 cups.Quote:

To start a new post, you have to go back to the main page and then click open a forum. That's the part people miss. You actually have to click a forum itself (not a thread in the forum, the title of the forum) and then once you do that, you will see the "start new thread" button at the top of the page and it's all very self-explanatory at that point.
I'm sorry if I messed up by answering, I didn't mean no eggs, just not that many eggs. I try to use eggs only on preparations, not eating scrambled eggs or hard boiled eggs.Quote:

No not at all, I really appreciate all the help you guys give in pitching in to answer when I can't get through all the questions in one day! Just wanted to clarify that as it's a very common misconception. I really should have it clearer in the diet.Quote:

I have a ph of 4 usually sometimes 3.5 sometimes 4.5 depends. I did try the lime tampon it didn't bother me at all why do you not reccomend it just curious I made it a 3.5 not a 2 ph. Maybe my 4 ph with the 3.5 is too low for sperm? I'm just on vitex and folate wondering if this month got messed up because of vitex it's only my first month it usually takes a month to work tho. But husband took a little break from the vitamins and will be starting today again. I'm wondering this month if I should just bd every four full days now what do you reccomend? Only because Opk messed up for me this month idk what's best now it's my 4th month ttc with 40 plus days in a cycle.
Oh gosh Missy so thankful you are ok!!
Research - by which I mean REAL research and not that done by people on gender swaying sites LOL - has shown that pH of anything below 6 = NO living sperm. Not X, not Y. X sperm do not love pH, no sperm love low pH, it kills them. The only reason why women can get pregnant doing stuff like lime douche is when their husband's semen can buffer that low pH and that doesn't always happen, unfortunately.
I would not be starting Vitex and lime tampon after 4 months TTC, I suspect I probably already nagged you about that before so I'll just toss it out there once more. :)
Vitex is notorious for causing many days of pos OPK like that so I betcha it was the vitex that caused it.
I would definitely have you on e4d for SURE at this stage. :)
Just read and replied to the other post and you said being 24 I have time if I wanted to try Opk for another month or so because my age and because it most likely was vitex messing me up. I will try another month hoping vitex will be out of my system since af is coming soon I'm on cycle day 42. And thank you i was safe but didn't have power for a week..everyone was acting like it was the apocalypse! Going crazy st gas stations and storesQuote:
