Good, sweetie.. and I will help you!
I'm totally different than anyone on this site:
I know the Calcium, Magnesium, and B50 complex are old school pink sway but they were new to me and felt the most right. I did that and added prayer!

I DID NOT DIET! I Love Food Too Much!!!!!! ;)
I did abstain from Caffeine (Coke) for months!
And avoided chocolate around O!
I also started out heavier than in my other pregnancies, so I guess that's part of my sway.
I have a heavyweight friend on fb and she just announced her third girl on Tues. She has been heavy for years but it's gotten her pink Every time!

I am going to put my sway together and post it next week! I waited until now to do it.

Sometimes I think your bodies are thrown off because there aren't enough nutrients to conceive and since there is no concrete girl sway I think several of you might not get enough calories.
That's my opinion and please nobody yell at me for it!

Oh, I also drank whole milk and ate 1 activia strawberry breakfast yogurt once a day.
At least a pack of 4 a week.

I got tons of calcium! LoL

And I used Vitex, RepHresh, and SYLK.

I did a pretty dedicated sway in my opinion WITHOUT the dreaded diet! :)

I made DH do supplements! Cranberry...Calcium, and Mag and I can't remember if he took the B50 but I think he did.. In the month I conceived Rainbow though he did not take them really.

Congrats Butterfly!!!!!!!!! Did you post any pics in the u/s forum?

Thank you Beachy!
The girl gave us some pics but none helped with gender. She didn't even save the shot she wrote "IT'S A GIRL" on, and I was SO upset! I wanted a nub pic for crying out loud! Especially to reassure me over the looooong week ahead!

We are going back and will get more pics and I will put something up if DH will let me go somewhere to get it scanned.

You still have to pot pics for us to see!!!

Thanks Beadin! 3 days to go now! :)

I just wanted to point out how I took my Vitex for new ladies trying it..
I did 2, 400mg Nature's Way capsules together in the morning because I read somewhere that it absorbs best then.
And I was taking it alone until I got migraines so I combined it with my other supplements and magnesium and the headaches stopped.
