I take a probiotic every day. Not sure about DH - my hubby is on a men's multivitamin and vitamin D 1000 a day.
On a different note just got my first PPAF. Exactly 4 weeks and 2 days since I stopped breastfeeding. This is exciting as I've been temping and could clearly see I ovulated (awesome for someone with PCOS!) except I only had an 8 day LP (started spotting late at night 8DPO. I was always 12 day LP before my pregnancy. Will it regulate back out? Anybody else's change and then stay that way after birth/breastfeeding?
Blue dust to everyone!
I don't have PCOS or was breastfeeding but after I stopped birth control my cycles took about 3 months to even out . They went from 23 days to 24 to 28 which is where I think they'll stay because that's where they have always been . But with the shorter cycles I was still O'ing around cd14-15 so I would only have a 9-10 day lp whereas it used to be 12-14 days . I think hormones in birth control are similar to what your body experiences when you breastfeed so hope this helps :) glad you ovulated this month ! :)
So just wondering if you guys think my sway is ok? I'm planning for my first attempt to be after this next cycle.
Vitamins:
Me (age 28) prenatal, extra folic, vitamin D 1000, probiotic, fish oil
DH (age 30) men's multivitamin, vitamin D 1000
Frequency: every 2-4 days with 3 attempts at +OPK
Meals:
Breaky: cereal with full cream milk or eggs, bacon and wholemeal toast with avocado and tomato or wholemeal toast with peanut butter or vegemit and a glass of full cream milk
Snacks throughout day: yoghurt with berries, almonds, hard boiled eggs, museli/granola bars
Lunch: leftovers from dinner or chicken and salad sandwich or meat and a salad
Dinner: Steak and veggies, chicken, rice and veggies, pork and veggies, Spaghetti bolognese with veggies in the ground beef, sweet potatoes with a lo of dinners.
Drinks: 1 green tea per day, 1 or 2 V8 juices per day, LOTS of water, 1 glass of full cream milk per day
Old wive's tales: blue onesie under the bed, and negative ions on tummy using phone after BDing in fertile days.
Unsure whether I should take EPO (I know it has to be less than then the fish oil) or robitussin to give me more fertile CM? Should I also give pressed a go?
I should also say snack wise - cheese
Use robitussin , I believe in it lol
Your sway looks [emoji1303] great

For me , I would take even milk or yogurt in a day , to not get too much calcium
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Thanks business. Just have one serving of either milk or yoghurt a day?
If I cut back to having my cereal with full cream milk and one yoghurt with berries per day is that enough calcium or still too much?
That's only me to believe in little calcium [emoji56] I cut back calcium when I was swaying for DS1
So you can do whatever makes you comfortable with !
This time Im taking prenatal which has some calcium in it, and I will cut back calcium in the attempt cycle[emoji276]

I hope you will get better soon Cnburke !!

I am messing up my sway ughh
I cant stay away from sweets lol [emoji23]
Now its almost 2 months till my attempt, and I started taking this seriously now [emoji849]
How is everything with your sway guys?

I'm having trouble getting food in to be honest. I'm very uninterested in food so it is tough, but I'm consciously grazing and snack on a little something every time I go to the kitchen, which is very often. I'm eating alot of nuts, that's what I reach for because they will provide the most calories without having to eat alot. My diet is very high in healthy fats. I eat one whole avocado per day (lots of potassium), nuts, greek yogurt, a block of aged cheddar per week (yikes! lol), chicken or fish everyday (not all 3 meals though) 2-3 eggs per day and whatever veggies I have available, usually leafy greens. I also try to have one serving of tomato soup (made with home made broth) per day, although the last two weeks haven't been as often.
I'm not walking as much as I should be due to very cold weather, but I'm trying!
Looks great Nusaybah!
I wouldnt do any cardio especially in the month of my attempt

I'm been a little naughty with sweets but maybe only once week. I have two questions - 1. What do you guys think about Taking alkagold to change your PH to make it higher and more boy friendly? Obviously you only do it during your fertile window.
Also 2. I don't know how I feel about moon phases. My daughter was conceived during a new moon phase, so that supports the ions theory. I had a look and I don't line up with moon phases until July next year - every cycle from now till then is around new moon phase. What are your opinions? Don't worry and just try to expose myself to the opposite ions?
Nusay - sway looks great! Are you having any red meat?
Umm I never tried alkagold, and I dont believe in ions[emoji849]
Although I tried to use laptops more when I swayed for DS1

Not really :( It isn't easy to access here. I only eat grass fed and organic, so it's very tough. I eat lamb occasionally, but otherwise it's just chicken or fish. I do eat organs though and I'm hoping that helps me out!Quote:

Hi linlin, a few people say they don't have a lot of dairy however atmoic said she was drinking HUGE amounts of milk and go boys - even went the full dairy to sway for a girl as suggested by another gender sway site and ended up with a boy. It's up to you. Some people say cut back on dairy while others say they were still having it. I typically have full cream milk with my cereal in the morning, a little bit of cheese (whether it be on it's own as a snack or as part of a sandwich) and maybe a yoghurt every day or second day. Atomic your thoughts??
linlin
I dont think it's too much , I guess it's fine
Although I find it that one glass of milk daily is enough !
I was a huge milk drinker when I conceived my DD , BUT I always drink it with sugar !!! That's mean lots of sugar intake + LE life style
So I'm just scared of whatever I did when I conceived her LOL !

Ok got it, then i jus take milk as regular drink on some days rather than force myself to take it. Thanks ladies.
I'm having a cup of coffee :worry: I had a migraine all night with the hormone shift (AF is due in a couple of days). I poured a very small cup and put lots of fatty cream. I won't be doing it again as I'll get some black tea today. I sure hope one cup doesn't make much of an influence. I stopped having coffee 6-8 weeks ago for my sway.
One cup wont hurt I guess ,Quote:

My DH is not excited , he might delay the attempt though !
Everytime I try to talk to him about the sway and having a baby , he was like sigh !

Hi guys,
I've stayed away awhile because I felt like I was having issues being understood on here, but thought I'd jump back in.
It had turned out I was pregnant during that time in what I've called the "high school horror story" since we were doing extremely cautious pulling out while I EBF (even though I had gotten back my period at 5 weeks postpartum), so I got pregnant from "precum." We ended up losing it around 7 weeks.
That bummed me out enough to want to come back here, but I held off. I wrestled with a lot of things, but mostly had to deal with the relief it was to have myself fall pregnant without "trying" as it felt like an answer to a lot of things I was going through. To then lose that answer was crushing.
Now I'm back now because one of my good friends just found out she's having a boy; her and her husband felt and thought girl, I literally had a dream about them having a boy weeks ago -- bam, boy. Obviously my dream was from my own desires, but it's hard to see that keep happening around me, especially after a loss that I *did* feel was a boy, and miscarriages are most often boys, though obviously my intuition could be thrown by my desires too.
Sorry to be a killjoy -- just though I'd check in, especially since I now have to process yet another person around me having a boy I so desperately want.
Hi Throwaway !!
You will get your boy I promiss !!
Buy some baby boy clothes , and you will see it coming even faster!
And welcome back ![emoji1]

Hi throwaway, sorry to hear of your loss. I'm sleeping with a little blue onesie under my bed - I like business' suggestion of buying the boy clothes!
@business: why is hubby not so keen for your sway? I'm waiting to O any day now and then I've got one more cycle after this one before I will start my sway - so mid/end January I'm looking at for my first attempt.
Dancing,
He wants to wait till DS is older (he is 1 1/2) , and I want them close in age !
Same thing here , My first attempt should be at January!
Its getting closer now .

@throwaway, sorry for your loss. <3
So my first attempt is this coming cycle. I'm so nervous and excited at once lol. I really hope we get results on the first try as this diet is killing me. My body is officially used to eating every 2 hours now and I wake up at night for a snack. I'm so used to going from dinner until lunch with just a cup of coffee and cream lol.
Nusaybah, Good luck !!

Is every one still doing their 2-3 eggs a day?
I've never eaten so many eggs before in a week! I feel like I should go buy some hens and make up a pen!
LOL! I totally feel you. I was doing keto before my sway and we buy 10 FLATS at a time from the farm. I eat 2-4 eggs per day although the last week I've been a bit lazy and have only managed like 1-2. An easy way to get your eggs in is by making mug cakes like this one:Quote:

Minus the splenda though, that stuff is toxic. I add vanilla stevia and swerve. These muffins are for sure boy friendly as well as take care of any sweet teeth ;)
Nusay - awesome recipe! However what is vanilla stevia and Swerve? How much do you use?
Are we supposed to eat eggs everyday?Quote:

Yeah apparently. At least 2 per day. I like eggs but I'm even struggling to eat 2 per day. I've just been trying to mix it up (omlette for breaky or hard boiled as a snack or a quiche).
