Hey Anchor, just checking in to see where you're at.
I have my fingers and toes crossed for you that this is your month.
Good luck also to all the other blue swayers for January.
Am now 6 weeks (love those first two bonus weeks!!) and am having regular morning sickness every day if I don't eat, eat too much. I've only ever had that around weeks 9-12 with the last 2 girls and much milder. I also read older mums are less likely to have morning sickness so have my fingers crossed it's because I have a boy cooking....

I have been on the diet and DH and I have been taking supps for 4 months! Our first attempt is in a couple days...I think we are ready and just hope luck is on our side, cuz Im so tired of swaying! Lol! Best of luck to you! :)

Thanks 4G exciting you're almost there! Ideally wanted to TTC as soon as diet will help but maybe I should wait longer!can I ask if you tested ph levels or anything, just wondering wether to do this. Making sure I'm covering all avenues!x

I started the diet 2 months before our first attempt, the recommendation is at least 6 weeks, but i think the longer the better. I didnt fall pregnant right away, in fact it took me 10 months so i was on the diet for 12 all up! I was checking PH in the beginning but after so long swaying pretty much everything got dropped and i turned lazy, it is not something you have to do, but it doesn't hurt either.

This is exactly how i felt in the early weeks of my pregnancy :) Never had MS before and it was especially bad when i would get hungry.

I'm still really nervous, but trying to not let that overshadow the happiness.

I'm so excited for everyone's January attempts!!!

So what was DHs reaction like? Best of luck for your scan, im sure everything will be perfect!

Ask away! Altough Im not sure Im as good of a reference as some seeings how Im yet to be sucessful! Lol It is nice to have the advice of others though! I oredered PH strips and checked DH PH one time before reading further into PH and deciding that it was not an important factor to me. I focused more on the high nutrition aspect of swaying instead of the acidic/alkiline part. It just made more sense to me! I think you just have to find what clicks for you! How long are you planning to do the diet for?

Thanks everyone for help and so quick as well! Hoping to ttc as soon as diet will have made an affect really. I was all booked for ht in april then decided last week that swaying was the way for me, only took me over a year to decide! I am feeling positive and realy hoping this works for me as have three gorgeous girls and need a wee lad to finish us off. I am unsure wether to do ph now either,how do you actually test ph?

Wow! That is quite exciting mama3! I hope you get your little blue bundle!! There are some very knowlageable gals here and the blue crew has been having good results so hopefully we can join in the success!

Have you read the thread from boy moms on how they concieved their boys? I find it soo interesting that we have been doing things to sway without even knowing it! Did you have a typical girl lifestyle when you conceived your DD's?

yeah im feeling really positive! It is funny how much I nede to change mydiet to HE so I suppose that says a lot!With my girls I was always dieting, diet fizzy juice, diet products and hardly any meat or salt or bananas or tomatoes!!Need I say more! When I had my last two (twins :) ) I was heavier than when I had my first but still watchingweight. I have never really tracked ovulationn so need to work on that. Did you do temps? Did you have a girly diet?x
