Skrimpy, have you completely closed your gap? I'm only in my fourth week at the moment. Do you just continue to do the tupplers and elevators all the time now?

Skrimpy, I am looking forward to wearing the splint thing, I keep feeling like my guts are falling out now knowing about it! I got a white one so hopefully it won't show much. I don't wear tight clothes, but is it pretty easy to see underneath your clothes? And yes, you are so right, all pregnant women should be told about it. My DH said that he felt if most pregnant women get it, that our obs should know more about it and tell us, which I agree with. I know mine opened up again when I gained the swaying weight.....I am SO excited to know about this and start doing it!
Cinss, I tested yesterday morning (13dpo) but a bfn, of course, so I stopped my progesterone supps so AF will likely start late tonight or tomorrow. Not surprised, though.
yes everything looks good with the babyQuote:

Hi, my name is babyblessings, and I am a terrible poster! :oops:
Perhaps it would be better to just start from scratch, and re-introduce myself...
I have been on and (more!) off the TTC a boy thread since the end of last year!
At that time, we had decided that we were going to give TTC another try so I read through the heaps of info on this site, asked a few questions and took it all in - but I became very overwhelmed and terrified - what if I got something wrong and ended up swaying pink by accident!? So I took a step back and took a deep breath...
And then, just when I plucked up the courage to simply do the best I could, and just as I had planned our sway, hubby decided that maybe sticking with the two beautiful daughters we have was a better plan... I was gutted!! Not that I am unhappy with what I have - they are too precious for words! But the emotional rollercoaster ride once again, got the better of me. But I saw his point of view, and focussed on the blessings I have :bigsmile: and delighted in the 'easy life' two kids of the same gender would give us. Buuuut, the longing to 'complete' our family didn't completely go away... only this time, I found myself realising that it didn't matter if the sway didn't work, I just wanted one more precious little blessing to join our family!
And so... I got brave (not sure yet about which - attempting to sway, or leaping to 3 kids!!) and we tried!!! Twice!! But I got two BFN in a row - was heart-breaking.
And so now, I have become brave again, not only to show up on this fantastic forum again :oops: but to plan another sway with some help from you folk!! I am officially TTC to JUNE!!
There are a few familiar folk…
TTC5... I am soooooooooo incredibly happy for you!! You must be overjoyed!
And to PoP and Lola - I am so sorry - I have been there and those BFNs are just heartbreaking. Lola - after my BFNs I too took a little break and it helped me.
Bec – I was so sorry to read your news… cannot imagine how tough that must have been. But I see you have tried again - I have fingers & toes crossed that you will see a BFP in a week or so!
Hobbermittens… do you know what you are having??? Very exciting!
And to everyone else, “hi!”
Welcome back bb!! Fingers crossed for a June BFP for you. I am rolling into my 6th month trying. Never experienced this before and it's so frustrating!!!
Bec it's all up to you now. You gotta get the BFP as the last one standing in the 2ww!!!
Hi babyblessings :) i think i have seen you on the forum a few times but i dont think we have been ttc at the same time? I started my sway in December last year but i was lurking for about 6 months before that. Anyway welcome back, a lot of the boy swayers are preggers now so it is great to have another who can join us in ttc a boy. After 6 BFNs in a row for me i have pretty much dropped a lot of "boy" things from my sway and at this point woyld be happy with a boy or a girl baby. It will be number 2 for me and number 4 for my DP.
Thanks for the welcome back PoP and Cinss - lets all pray those BFNs stay away and we all get BFP soon! My attempt will be end of next week Cinss - when is your next attempt?
Im about 10 days till O :)Quote:

Pop do you just get mucinex from the chemist? Is it just over the counter?
I bought it on eBay from the USA :highfive:
Cinss - I am about 6 days to O. heres hoping we will be :pregnant: together!
I can't remember... does alcohol, and specifically wine (red or white) sway boy or girl? I am out on a girls evening tonight, but I don't want anyone to question me on the no drinking thing... if I have a couple of glasses will it ruin my sway? :nails:
Welcome backQuote:

I have decided that if I don't get pregnant this cycle I am going to buy the personalised plan in August and get ready for my November sway all over again, atomic style!
Thanks Pop, do you know if there is an Aussie version of mucinex? I know i can use cough syrup, i dont even know what i am going to do this month :( i am so unprepared,
Robitussin DM. You can also get it in tablet form if you google it. I used to have the link but can't find it?
Vicks chesty cough syrup ;)Quote:

PS - I am so happy for you! I imagine it feels unreal??!
So this is what I have been doing.. buuuuuuut - I only started this all about 2-3 weeks back! not sure its been long enough??? I have been eating loads of meat - emphasis on red meat, and either an egg on wholewheat toast or peanut butter on toast every morning. Have been drinkking lots of juice and using stevia instead of sugar in my tea/coffee each morning. I have REALLY battled to steer away completely from sugar - I am one BAD chocaholic! but I have tried..
I have done the HE diet - have gained 5kgs!! :worry:
Have been on a good multivitamin (which does contain a small amount of L’arg), taken potassium, zinc, krill oil (omega 3),Vit D, FA, Vit C, and I have been taking a capsule you can buy here which raises testosterone and estrogen NATURALLY! I have just started on my daily dose of a URAL equivalent (called citrosoda but does have glucose in it! A little worried about that) and vicks chesty cough syrup. Also started yesterday with loads of lemon water and freshly squeezed orange juice. Salt on everything! Going to also go out and buy a mix of nuts and some bananas this morning too!
DH has been on Vit D, Vit E, Vit C, fish oil, potassium, zinc, multivit, L’arg, Ginseng, TT and similar diet to me. HE drinks laods of water anyway - so that was a bonus. Has now cut out as much sugar and caffiene as possible - we are 5 days away from our attempt! Still trying to decide on using EW and BSD, and No idea about moon phases and all that, but what do you all think??? a little worried we didn't make these changes soon enough!
You got a good chance BB!
Oh I REALLY pray, and hope so TTC5...
BB that plan looks great. Very much how i started my sway. Not everyone is keen on BSD or EW anymore, there have been a few discussions about them and how they may affect conception. Preseed or natural ewcm seem to be the better options for a boy sway. I just thought id mention that incase you wanted to look into it more. Im not too far behind you with O so i am excited to see how you go :)
Really Cinss? Thanks for mentioning! I was tending towards trying to increase natural EWCM, so I think thats what I will stick with... Would far rather conceive!! :wink: You say thats how you started your sway... how long since you started? Quite worried about only having been on this plan for such a brief time! only 3 weeks and into our 4th now.Quote:
