If you need naps, I would take those naps!! :wink:
I didn't get a lamp but I want one. Just bc there perty. And I guess it's just soy for him.
I was advised against FR (for us) bc im on Clomid/with a time restraint kinda, and we don't want to lower odds of conception a crazy amount...

I didn't get a rock lamp yet, but it's on my list!! :D I don't think soy sways boy, I think atomic wrote something about that in the myth foods article. I got cranberry for myself, but haven't been taking it yet. I'm going to order my personal plan tonight, so am very excited about what atomic has to say! And I will take the supps she recommends. About frequent release, I'm so confused. I though one attempt was best and not to FR? My husband really doesn't want to FR I'm sure! We're down to once a week now anyway, like i said earlier, our libido's are very low right now with everything going on. I have very short cycles, so I think I ovulate around day 8-10, maybe 11. So was thinking we BD on day 4, 8 and 12? Or maybe 5, 9 and 13? I do hope we don't miss my O like that though, as I didn't get pregnant when I did a 3 day cut off with conceiving Ds2. So maybe we should only Bd when O is obviously there? I don't use OPK's or temping, I would def forget that all the time! In the past I always got pregnant when we did it on the days I got EWCM, so want to try this again in september and hope for the best. But since I can't really pinpoint O, I'm not sure when DH should have his last release. Maybe I would just help him out on day 4 of my cycle, so it would be around 4-7 days from our attempt. Does that sound right? I do really hope to get pregnant in september, as I would LOVE a june baby and july and august are holidays and I don't think that's a fun time for a child to have a birthday as everyone would be away. My sister is from july and hardly anyone came to her birthday as they were always away. I'm from june and I always had loads of visitors, so would feel sad for baby if no one came. Oh I'm such a controll freak, I want to plan everything and want to consider everything aah! lol.Quote:

First she phoned me ( I need to keep my phone on as school may call if something is up with the kids), to ask some stupid question I don't know. And then she rang the doorbell to ask another stupid question! Even though I told her I was sleeping grrr! She naps every freaking day, has no kid,s no job, she has all the time in the world to irritate the *bleep* out of me and she wakes me up in my sleepy time. Not amused at all. So happy I'm going to be moving soon, about an hour from my family. (sorry for the rant, I have a very bad relationship with my sister, she has borderline and obviously doesn't get it and stalks me a lot).Quote:

Soy has been shown to lower fertility in men and we are using it to sway pink. The old school "soy sways boy" idea did not add up biologically because phytoestrogens (plant chemicals that mimic the action of estrogen) may actually disrupt female fertility as well. The jury is still out on soy for DW but I use it for DH all the time now and success rates ahve only gone up since I started to (not saying it's due to the soy, just that it doesn't seem to be swaying blue)
FR is not ok for everyone and our results have been so disappointing I hardly ever use it any more
THat literally happens to me every single time I have tried to nap in like the past 11 years. It's honestly the main reason why I completely gave up on naps, because it never failed that something would happen the second I drifted off to sleep.Quote:

Some gals use it and that is at their discretion, but it's not safe and has gotten identical results to the overall stts of the site indicating it is not doing anything beneficial anyway.
Oh good to know cranberry not for DW! And yes, that's one of the reasons I don't take naps. I get so crabby when I get woken up! My kids do it, okay they're my kids, they can wake me up at night if need be. But NO people, do not wake me up. It's either the mailman, one of my sisters, some stupid telemarketing ad, someone who forget the house keys. Just leave me alone when I sleep. Do not wake me up, unless there's a fire. It's not a pretty sight, I may slap her next time! lol. No really, I might just for real!
