:celebrate: HAPPY BIRTHDAY ELP :celebrate:
I hope that birthday wish of baby number 10 comes true. As for the cold feet, forget about them, there will always be something that will make the timing not ideal. A baby is for life even if you do get MS for christmas :wink:
Cinss best of luck with the scan
n710 look after yourself and I hope we will see you back in the new year. Of course I will update you if and when I get my BFP.
LOL Pearl, your post reminds me of the puppy adverts:bigsmile: And thankyou!!!:celebrate:
That's what I was thinking of. Esp since my parents in law have 10 adorable Beagle pups that will be ready to go just before christmas. Talk about bad timing
Happy birthday ELP!!
Okay we did not get pregnant this month. My pregnnacy test came out to be negative. Just updating .
Sorry about the BFN prayforaboy
Sorry to hear that prayforboy. FX for your next cycle :)
Hi everyone. :) I just registered, I hope you don't mind me just jumping in! I figure that's the best way though, since I am very overwhelmed right now reading all the swaying tips. I currently have 2 daughters, and would love to add a little boy to the mix.
Welcome to the site boomerang:) Good luck with your sway!! If you read through this thread and last months blue thread people have listed what they are doing and there are some good tips in there aswell!! Another good thing is to read through the blue sways to get the overall impression of what to do, then feel free to ask as many questions as you like:) I'm short of time lately but hope to be about more soon to catch up in full with everyone!!
And thanks for the b'day wishes everyone xxxxxxxx
Thank you ELP. I've been lurking on this site and another site for a few days reading up on all the FAQs and threads, so thought it was time to dip my toe in.
Happy (belated?) birthday!
Sorry about the bfn Prayforaboy:( But on the positive side you can spend this month tweaking your sway if oyu need to!!
I think I will try a opk late on just to see if theres anything going on!!
Welcome boomerang, when will you start your attepts?
ELP are you going for it this month?
I just dont know still??? On one hand I would love to try for a brother for Dave quickly so that it was underway, but on the other hand I am just dreading xmas, we still havent really caught with the bills from last year, so just the thoughts of buying another load of old crap on top of the possible pregnancy fuzzy head is making me apprehensive?? I know another baby is in the future and I am getting older every day (36) so shall I just get it out the way?? or be sensible for once and wait for Dec/Jan???? I'm such an addict!
Welcome Boomerang
Sorry about the BFN prayforaboy, on the up side at least you can be on the diet and supps for a little while longer, hopefully that will help
Hey dloui, not long now until you have your little blue bundle :) do you feel like it has gone fast? I still remember when you got your bfp, and it feels like just the other day :)
Hey Blue swayers.
I am new to GD and trying for a little man after 3 little ladies.
Have been doing boy diet and sups for a week and feel so bloated and full from all the food and salt!!! Ahhh!!
I don't know how people eat salt, it's harsh if your not used to it.
Anyway, we will be TTC in December so hope you don't mind me jumping in to your group to see what and how your all doing.
All the very best of luck to all you TTC in the next month or so.
Hi luvalittleman :) Aparrently if you take a swig of apple cider vinigar it helps with bloating. Best of luck with your December attempt, i think Dec is a good boy month.
Just an update. No sign of AF yet today she was due this morning. I am still down at my parents without a test for another few hours. So will be POAS in the morning. The only thing that is putting a damper on things is that I am getting AF style cramps since this morning
(copied my post over here instead of intros - thanks for the tip!)
Hi girls,
I'm attempting to sway for a boy. I have 2 girls (2.5 and 11 mo) and we'd really love a boy. I've just joined this weekend but have been researching and reading for months now. Breastfeeding my 11 mo old has been messing with my cycle but now I think I'm finally on track. I have been doing a light sway for a few months but really have cracked down in the past week (AF now, amping up for O). I'm nervous though that I haven't been eating enough in the past couple months. I lost some weight (not a big eater and terrible about working out) but trying now to add it back on with healthy, high potassium/sodium foods. I've spent hours the past few days reading on here about supplements, drinks, etc etc. I nervous to miss something! Big question right now, I'm taking Vitax, which I think helped get my cycle back but have been reading that it sways pink. Should I stop? Scared it will cause my cycle to mess up if I stop, although just night-weaned my LO so hopefully the 12 hour nursing break is all I need to keep it going. (also, should I post this somewhere else other than introductions?)
Thanks and much love!
Pearl Goodluck i have fingers crossed for you, i got my bfp that day after af was due, shocked my pants off haha :)
Hi becca, are you going to start your attempts soon? Some bad news is BF sways pink, losing weight, vitex, and having your kids close together all sway pink. You would want to be on the HE diet for at least 6 weeks before your first attempt, you really need to get your nutrient levels up to sway boy, wheatgrass capsules, brewers yeast tablets and v8 juice will all help.
thanks Cinss, I appreciate your help! I've been doing supplements for a couple months and trying to remember to do the diet but not really. We may wait until Dec (that was the original plan - get just so excited thinking about trying again) to make sure I'm eating enough. I also thought about getting a personalized plan. Do I become a dream member for that?
Im not sure if you have to be a dream member 1st, go to the Paid Subscriptions link on the main forum page to for more details.
Welcome Becca :) I think the personlised plans are a great idea, it takes the guess work out of everything and it is customed to your life.
Cinss not much longer now for your scan, I can't wait to see pics
i know dloui, 2 days, im so nervous but excited, it will be my 1st scan for this pregnancy, i just hope everything is ok :) I will definatly post the pics when i get home.
2 days!!!! I cant wait for your pics Cinss, I love guessing on the ultrasounds:) Will you get DH to video it on his phone maybe??? That will give is some great clues!!
Welcome becca, vitex has alot of success amongst the pink swayers, so if your cycles are regular i would drop it now to get it out of your system:agree: Start eating some nuts each day aswell, even if its just peanut butter from the jar, leave the jar out so that you see it all the time:agree:
What supps are you taking?????
I GOT MY BFP YESTERDAY EVENING. SO EXCITED I COULDN'T SLEEP LAST NIGHT.
Thanks ELP and Cinss,
Yes DH knows he was hovering outside the bathroom while I was POAS :)

Pearl, Your BFP! YAY
Happy and Healthy 9 Months!
:pregnant:
Hi there - I'm taking folic acid, dha, prenatal, vit d, vit b12 (occasional b6), flaxseed. L'arg dried me up and possibly delayed my o last month (could have been the evening prim - stopped both). Picking up brewers yeast and wheatgrass today. DH on zinc, prenatal, fa, vit e, l'arg, b12. Might add c0q10 too.
I've been drinking lemon water for about 2 months, eating nuts, apricots, bananas, canned soup, meat and potatoes and a ton of veggies (we eat meat and veggies everyday mostly anyway). I still have trouble not getting hungry (even with eating so much). I think its from the bfing.
I'm still trying to read everything on here but I just read TTC5's planned sway and I think she had a boy?? I couldn't find the answer for sure. So I'm going to start o-ing everyday a week or so before we planned to ttc.
Congrats to Pearl! That is awesome news!
Congrates Pearl .... I love your veg diet ideas... I am going to use them this month.
Thanks Pearl and Cinss.... This month I will try to catch the O day.....
Becca flaxseed can dry up CM, last time round I had zero CM from this, luckily still got my boy though. Maybe swap it for fish oil:agree:
