I would say go to the doc if you're worried. Lots of people get ovulation pains, and they can happen before, during and even after O.Quote:

Oh, and by the way, one lady (from ebay, I can't remember who it was, I purchased quite a few from there) predicted a girl before I was pregnant, but then once I was pregnant, I asked for a gender prediction, and she said boy. And she was the one who got the conception month right.
In my opinion, Cara and Mis2Ninos have both had good track records. They were right for me. Didn't they say boy/girl twins for you?
Any chance you could be pregnant, sorry i forget if you are on birth control?Quote:

As for gender it really has been seen time and time again that they are accurate 50% of the time, i think they just toss a coin.
Thanks for that, makes me feel a bit better. Cara originally said twins, at least one girl...then I emailed her back and she replied saying she feels both will be girls :worry: I have tried emailing Mis2Ninos but she doesn't seem to be around anymore.Quote:

Do twins run in your family?Quote:

Also, if everyone is telling you May and girl, why not skip TTC in May? When I first started swaying and getting predictions, several people said August and girl. So I didn't TTC in August, and I didn't TTC in November because that would have given me an August due date.
Babylee, maybe you have a UTI?
Where do y'all find all these gender psychics? I loooove that stuff. Of course, I don't put too much stock in it, but I'd love to get a reading done.

I will continue swaying my heart out, but will happily take one or two little girls if it means having a healthy baby that I get to take home with me.
Oh god now that's horrible to hear my heart just sinks hearing that stuff! I feel selfish sometimes when I think about me swaying for a particular gender though I would be SOOO over the moon for DD to have a sister..
Just pray that we are blessed with healthy bubbas.
Pop seriously ignore that crap these physics say!! When are you going to TTC ??
In a little over a week (so excited). Don't expect it to work straight up though. Totally expecting at least 3-4+ months to get a BFP. Super excited to finally be pregnant though!
Hope gave you the link, i would start off with Cara ;) Have fun!Quote:

Well I started it in July 2012.....But got super serious and totally strict in December. So 7 months diet, 3 super strict. Been on fish oil, B12, multi for 8 months and everything else for 3 months. Lifting weights, etc for 2 months now.Quote:

Has anyone gained a lot of weight on the diet? I'm not weighing myself because I want to stay in denial but I'm sure I have. I'm working out often and eating very little processed food but it's still a lot of calories and a ton of nuts so high fat. I see some of you have been on the diet for awhile and wondering how you are doing it?
I am losing super slow. Losing fat and gaining muscle. Clothes are loser but not a massive change on the scales. Lots of small meals, all healthy and gym 5 days a week. Feeling great!
Do you have your diet on here anywhere? I am trying to be healthy but I feel like I am eating a ton of nuts and I'd really like to eat less. I generally snack all day with my biggest meal being lunch. I am hungry all the time though!! Everytime I get hungry, I get paranoid my blood sugar is dropping and I eat.Quote:

I ate 10 almonds per day with a green apple for morning snack, so didnt overdo nuts, ate my fruits for the day before the afternoon (so the natural sugars would burn off) and veggies at dinner time with lean meat with all fat cut off. Working out was very helpful and at the time i conceived i had just lost about 6kgs.
That's great information! I'm really overdoing it on the nuts. I don't even care about losing weight I just want my muffin top gone!! I don't want to go into a pregnancy wanting to lose weight. I just found out another friend of mine is having a boy. All three people that are pregnant are having boys and they all had girls first! I'm a little jealous but hopeful it will happen for me too.
Yeah thats pretty much what I am doing too. Big breakfast, medium lunch, small dinner, no more than 10 nuts a day, cheese and rice crackers for one snack and a protein shake after the gym, before bed.
Lol OMG you ladies make me feel so guilty! I cannot live off a small meal I get stomach pains because of starvation. I do generally have a big breakfast with oats oatmeal with peanut butter and a banana and mid morning snack is almonds and dates.. And i have larabars with coconut water, cheese and crackers.. sometimes apple with peanut butter.. i just think its all this rich food Im eating.. i dont eat from out much either. I'm really cutting back on bread and if I do it's whole grain.. I do always eat before I go sleep ( its usually breakfast cereals or 3dates with glass of milk) because by the time I get up in morning my stomach grumbles bad lol
Any advice on what else I could replace the bread with and what else I could eat.. I've gained weight but I checked recently I lost 5pounds in a month I don't know if it just fat turned into muscle but I've gone bulky!! Lol it's horrendous
How many times do you guys have Snacks?
I kind of just snack all day. I have a big breakfast and then eat every 2 hours or so. My breakfast is either banana, berry and protein powder pancakes with Greek yoghurt or bacon and eggs on a cruskit with avocado or coconut yoghurt with this seed and goji berry mix in it. First snack is usually poppy seed and sea salt corn chips with chive and onion cream cheese dip. Then fruit and nuts. Then a little left over dinner in snack size (lunch). Then cheese and crackers. Then meat and veg. Then gym. Then protein shake with banana and berries blended in. Then bed.
Oh the things we do...laying on my bed with a heat bag on my tummy (thanks for the tip flava). I long for the days when TTC didn't involve swallowing a bazillion supplements, weird drinks, lots of food I am not used to eating and laying with heat bags on me. It used to be so simple hey!! But as they say....if you always do what you've always done you will always get what you always got! My new motto.
afy you can replace bread with wraps or ryvitas (not sure if they are called the same thing in NY) rye crackers. Your diet looks really good. I was just having green tea after dinner so i didnt get hungry.
I heard about the heating pad but I forgot what it does. Can you explain it again? Thanks for the food suggestions. That will help so much!!
I think it helps with implantation??
Lol nicely said Pop... your diet sounds fab, i just think mines BORING lol.. i do try to experiment but Ive come to the point where i really dont want to eat what i cant stomach and we shouldnt have to either lol.. The diet isnt hard and eating after 1-2 hours is a must for me now i get shaky if i dont eat on time!.. I know what you mean about not having to eat so much I just hate having to be presice with eating and not eating whenever your feel like to.. AHHH GONE ARE THOSE DAYS!! i know in pregnancy i cant handle staying hungry i was VERY bad with my DD i would wake up 4/5am to eat because my belly hurt so bad of hunger!!Quote:

Build a nice thick lining and helps with implantation.Quote:

Avocado, cheese, tomato, chicken :)
BFN... I'm so relieved, I'm sure if I were pregnant it would be another girl. I'm scared and excited to sway for a boy.

I usually ovulate cycle day 12-13 and Iam looking to TTC in May from my calculations if Af stays consistent I will have my AF first week of May and prob Ovulate around 2nd week May,now does this mean i would need to start DTD in April ? if yes roughly around when?
sorry i know this is confusing just let me know ladies if you guys dont understand! x
