I'm so nervous, got my positive opk today. So we will bd tonight. I've been using rephresh every 3 days and did .5 applicator this morning. This is day 8 of abstaining for hubby and he's also taking licorice root. I just have the ph strips and it looks to be around 4-4.5. Do I need to do anything else? There's no need to douche right?
You can't douche with RepHresh, it can make a pH spike.
Ok thanks!
I have moved all of the links for entering and reviewing sways to this location- http://genderdreaming.com/forum/add-your-girl-sway-/
There, you will find links for Entering your Sway, Viewing the current stats and the Individual details for each member that enters their sway
I have posted my sway plan and haven't received any feedback in the review thread. Should I post it on the link instead?
No, the link is just for complete sways where the sex of the baby is known.
If you go to where you posted your sway and reply to yourself with the words "bump", it is more likely to filter up to the top of the list of New Posts and be better seen so you get a response!
This is probably a stupid question, but is it possible to convert the stats spreadsheet to excel? Because now I can't filter anything and was interested to see some combinations...
Thanks!
I see that you posted it, but it usually takes me some time to go over those so sometimes I have to wait till I have a day that I am less busy to do them. thanks for patience.Quote:

If you look hard enough there will always be some combination that appears better but it's just statistical noise.
Stats are updated again. 6 new sways were added. 2 of them were sways that I've added from ones that got put on the wrong sheet. I'm slowly working my way through those. I suspect there's probably at least a half dozen of them, maybe more.
Thank you!! Are you finding less people adding in the wrong place now?? I ~thought~ the option to add them to the wrong place has now been removed, just wanted to be absolutely sure.
I think so. There's certainly more going to the right sheet now than there were. I'd have to check all the dates to see exactly when/if they've stopped going to the other one.
ETA: I just went through and it looks like the last date there was one added to the other sheet was in late 2016.
Excellent, thanks!
Stats updated again. Most of the increase are ones I found on the other sheet that weren't on this one yet. I still have some more to check, just haven't had a chance yet.
Thank you so much!!
Ladies, if you have not added your info to the spreadsheet, please do! We rely on you guys to help us compile these stats and if everyone adds their info, it is a lot less time consuming for everyone and we get a lot higher quality data.

Maybe i missed it but what does fbd and cfr stand for?
Frequent BD and Compressed Frequent Release. I don't recommend either of these
Stats updated.
I added my sway to the stats [emoji4].

Thank you! Ladies, I know we've had more than 6 sways this past month or two, if you haven't added your info to our spreadsheet, please do!!
Anyone sway

I have and I promise I will put my sway in. I'm only 5 weeks so I just want to wait a little bit more and then I'll do it.Quote:

Anyone's DH does jogging plus weights and sauna and managed to sway pink or conceive at all? I'm on antihistamines for skin allergys and hay fever plus cardio 6 days a week so worried I won't conceive at all [emoji85][emoji85]

It's hard to say. I can tell you that most of us cannot control what our DH's do lest they pull the plug on TTCing. I would focus on what you do to sway and try not to worry about what your DH does, unless he is willing to help sway with you. The antihistamines sound like they are necessary for your health, and you should keep taking them regardless of how they sway (they don't help or hurt a sway).Quote:

🤞🏻and GL to you!!

Is it raspberry tea or raspberry leaf with peppermint tea xx

The ONLY people who have ever done RRLT for a pink sway were people who'd gone on swaying a LONG time and had not gotten pregnant. Honestly, it's a last ditch thing that I try sometimes when people aren't conceiving. So those stats are completely misleading since people who have not gotten pregnant for a long time tend to have more girls anyway.
We have tracked peppermint tea separately and know it's not really working, but at least it's supposed to sway pink. Stay away from RRLT unless I personally have approved it for you.
Looking at the diet stats- I would like to start trying at 9 weeks after starting the diet. Should I wait until 12 weeks? How much of a difference does it make?

12 weeks is more effective (and this has stayed so consistent since the early days of the site I believe it to be a real finding and not a fluke) BUT the thing is, many people start off doing a pretty intense sway in terms of cutting odds of conception, that I generally LIKE people to start TTC early (6-10 weeks) and then most of the time you won't get pregnant that first month or even two. We have average 3 months to conception.
What I DON"T want people to do is think "well if 12 weeks is good, 20 is even better" then diet strictly for 20 weeks, then sway super strictly for another 20 weeks, and come to me in a year and have not gotten pregnant and weigh 90 lbs and their hair is falling out. DON"T do that. I would far rather see you guys start off a smidge sooner than 12 weeks and enjoy doing whatever sway tactics you want to do that first month or two (since most people do want to feel they've tried everything) and then by the time you're ready to start dropping the stuff that doesn't really work (like timing, jellies, antihistamine, frequency, etc) then you've had enough time on diet anyway.
Now all this having been said, if you're NOT doing a strict sway with all that other stuff, then in that case you may want to wait the full 12 weeks. But anyone who is, makes more sense to start off sooner rather than later.
Thank you so much for your response, Atomic! I have been doing a strict LE diet/Weight Watchers for a week. I am adding coffee starting today. I have been exercising 2-3 times a week and now I'm going to up it to 4-6 times a week. We BD in November and December and didn't get pregnant with one attempt and diet and lots of cardio so I'm thinking we should try in July with one attempt and go to every 4 days in August. July will be 9 weeks with diet and 8 weeks with exercise. Do you think that's ok?Quote:

What is your age and how important is it that you get pregnant very soon?
I'm 29 and I would like get pregnant by November at the latest. But the thought of being on the diet that long... [emoji51] And I don't know how long I can keep up this workout routine. It's a lot of work for me and really hard. But I don't want to greatly reduce the chances of my sway working either.Quote:

When I got pregnant with DD 6 years ago I was dieting and exercising for 6 weeks before conception. Then no exercise and eating all the time and vitamins when I got pregnant with boys. One attempt with all 3 kids. So I was surprised we didn't get pregnant in November and December.
Maybe I could do one attempt and J&D in July and every 4 days in August without J&D?

Go ahead and try in July.
ARe you doing immediate J and D or after 5 minutes? If immediate, go to 5 minutes.
It's up to you about one attempt vs. e4d. E4D will be better odds of conception.
Awesome! I was doing immediate so I'll go to 5 min.Quote:

I did some weights in April but kept up with cardio 1-3 times a week that whole time. So 3 weeks before I started the diet last week I was maintaining weight and not eating great but not a ton either.

Just a heads up, Claypot had added her data to the spreadsheet after having been told boy, but then a subsequent ultrasound revealed she was actually having a girl!
