Due Sept/Oct/Nov 2017

I think we can all sit here and go over and over our sways I feel like I've looked at sways for the past two years to be honest it's consumed me !!! I'm ready to close the book have this baby and move on !

Me &I my hubby are sitting here contemplating wether to pay the money for harmony test I think we will for my sanity really .
My hubby just said he will be so upset I feel so bad hearing those words - my elder son also really wants a sister I really hope I can give our family what we all want / need .

If it makes you feel any better Cosmosis, I was so depressed with DS2 (I had a miscarriage before him and it took 3 cycles to conceive him) I was actively losing weight and skipping breakfast. I knew nothing about swaying at the time! I did snack on nuts or cheese in between meals. I have 3 boys and never once took wheatgrass. I think you did just fine! Plus you had more than one attempt!

I've just been looking up gender scans so I'm going to get one done at 16 weeks, only 10 weeks to wait!!! Its allot cheaper then the harmony 400 compared to 80 but obviously you can get the harmony done early which I would definitely get if I could!! So now I just need to pre-occupy myself for 10 weeks 😃

I'm going to wait for my scan at my hospital. They prefer to do the scan between 18-20 weeks. I'm wanting to do it at 18 weeks, which is only 10.5 weeks for me!!

No Ireland buttercups, can get the gender scan 10mins away from my house and its 80 Euro so going to go with it or I'll just drive myself crazy!!!

@XX, YES, it does make me feel alot better! :D thank you for that hun.

aaaaaah scans. I honestly don't want my midwife to scan me due to all the drama that could happen. I'm aiming for an HBAC this time so the less my midwife looks in there, the better for me. I *may* go get a private scan to see if there's one or two, see where the baby implanted and get potty shots. Not sure how much that will cost though. I wanted to do the harmony test instead but that's just too pricey lol.


A question about FF. It looks like FF is trying to push me to use the pregnancy tracker, but I want to temp for at least half of my pregnancy (data collection :D) If I use the pregnancy tracker, will my chart be taken away?

Just went over my sway and noticed I went over in my fat goal every Saturday or Sunday hoping this hasnt affected too much!
Yes definately go for it Amelia !
I hope we have lots of pink on this board xx

Oh yes sorry cosmosis !!!
U can have some of my blue dust certainly !! Xxx

I think you are so far Cosmosis! Have all of mine X3 [emoji597][emoji92][emoji170][emoji843][emoji170][emoji94]! You can still access your chart and add temps, at least I can with the VIP version.

Butterfly- I'm sure you will be fine. That doesn't sound too bad to me!

Buttercups I think your overall totals matter and long as your diet was different to when you conceived the boys you should be fine, how long were u on the diet for? I was on it a total of 8/9 months with little breaks and cheats here and there to keep me going! I know 3 months is recommended so I'm hoping the length of time stands to me along with 1 attempt, only folic acid and coffee and alcohol. Only think I didn't do was the exercise

Thank you for the blue dust :D

Alright, I shaved down one cup of tea... I think. I'll see if I can manage with two for a week or so.

I'm going to purchase a couple of frers today and a box of CBD w/ estimator. How do you ladies suggest I make the most of the CBD? I won't be able to get in for a midwife appointment until I'm 12 weeks I'm pretty sure. I'm only a week an 4 days in and that's going from ovulation not implantation. I want to see progression from 2-3 weeks to 3-4 weeks. In other words, the first time I take the test the CBD should say 1-2 weeks and if I take it 2 weeks later, it should say 3-4 weeks. Do I have this right?

So then, do I take one next week and then 2 weeks from then?

I was on it 12 weeks exactly that's when my O fell coincidentally! I did do exercise coffee alcohol (missing both haha!) I honestly couldn't believe I fell first time so obv intended to do it for longer but it worked and now I'm doubting I may not have been on it long enough - but what's he point in me wondering / worrying about it now!!
Wow amazing efffort doing it for 7-8 months Amelia !! Did u intend to do it for that long or was that the length of ttc ?

I'm also going to buy another CBd for tommorow as I'm hoping to see the 2-3 weeks instead this week - il use my fmu and keep my fingers crossed !!


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

No I only intended to do 3/4 months thinking I would fall pregnant straight away which didn't happen hence the long time on it, I lost a stone and was never this skinny when I conceived all 3 boys ... I've put the stone back on already with bouts of nausea, I have to eat to keep it away. But I only have it for half the day morning/afternoon and the rest of the day I'm fine ... Weird!!!!

Sent from my HTC One M8s using Tapatalk

I haven't gained anything yet at 7 weeks 2 days. My nausea lasts all day and causes me to not eat much even when grazing [emoji20]. I can't wait to feel better soon! I was on the diet for 1 year and TTCed for 11mo when we conceived. By the end, the LE diet became my way of life, haha! I lost about 1 stone and a half towards the end.

I think we all had really great sways! I hope we all get what we tried for! I personally think we will have boy #4. I just can't imagine us having a girl!

It's hard to imagine having the opposite sex when we're so used to a certain one
Wow you both done so well - I was just struggling with the exercise it was exhausting me!

No nausea here - il keep u updated if and when it comes !

All you ladies seem to have great sways, and that's wonderful that you feel you gave it as best a shot you could and will now just roll with it!
I didn't get time to sway! I joined the site back in November and had planned to spend most of this year learning what 'swaying was all about! I had the intention to maybe start this Summer and in the meantime do lots of reading on this site and start regulating my cycle.
Well that was the plan lol! This was a completely unexpected BFP and aside from a few workouts every now and then and skipping breakfast for a matter of weeks I literally have NO sway!

oh and @ Cosmosis...I have blue dust galore over here!!

Ah girls your all a great bunch and its so nice to be able to chat to ye everyday like this 😃 I'm praying we all get what we want to wouldn't that be amazing! Feel like I know ye all already! Xx I'm the exact same I keep visualizing both scenarios it's a boy and it's a girl and each time I'm like ya it's definitely a boy, just cant picture hearing those words it's a girl!!!! Boys are all I know and maybe all I'll ever know ...

I really like it on this forum. It is nice to be understood for wanting a certain gender and this disappointment that may come if we don't get our GD.

*sigh* I'm extremely crabby and I don't even notice it. DH and DD are both asking me why I'm so angry. DH thinks its that time of the month, I wanted to tell him what was up but I don't feel ready yet. Am I really gonna be a horrible crab for 9 months? I was hoping to soften up a bit you know? I feel like such a fail. I already have a tendency of being very bossy and easily irritated all the time.

I would lol!!

@ XX, thank you for your comment. I have faith that I'm in with a shot, but if not then I can't really complain since I wasn't even trying to become pregnant anyway!!
I can officially say I've had some nausea today...yay...happy to feel at least something lol. It could however have been down to the fact that I'm super stressed with work at the moment and was up at the crack of dawn this morning trying to be a bit organised!

haha, thank you for the blue dust :)

I think you have a good chance hun. No breakfast is biggie for girls :)

So I have sharp pelvic discomfort. I won't call it pain because that's not what it is. It almost feels like something is being dug into me. I don't remember anything from DD at this stage lol. I hope this is bean snuggling in for the ride! <3

How did it feel for you ladies the first and second week?

I felt something similar with all of my pregnancies. I was told it is your uterus starting to expand due to muscle memory. I felt it near my groin this time.

I also had very sharp pains for about a week around implantation.
And I have been SO irritable lately. Much worse than normal. Ughhhh.

I didnt have any pain . Weird
Ok i need to ask you ladies a question that i have stressing and stressing over non stop ...
We had 2 attempts my cycle i got my bfp , 4days apart day 6 and day 10 im pretty sure i ovulated day 11.
Anyway my stress is that i had the big o on the attempt day 10. I did j&d straight away... i feel like ive failed already and i dont even know the gender .

Lol cosmosis ..
Here have all of mine :bluecheer:

I don't think something small like that can make too much differing faith , I'm not an expert at all so someone more experienced may want to comment but I think ur timing was great (same as mine e4d!)
I think u have a great chance and probably just stresting like the rest of us that we haven't done enough but what will be will be now - I'm sorry I'm not much help !


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I wouldn't stress either about that and I think I read that it was debunked and loads of women got dd after having an o ... And I don't see how it could impact on the gender if you were doing all the other things, it's only normal to worry and analyse every little thing while waiting

Sent from my HTC One M8s using Tapatalk

I Did get weird contraction like pains when it was around implantation and pains on either side

Sent from my HTC One M8s using Tapatalk

Thank buttercups and amelia reading ur responses made me feel better . Yes im going to stop stressing cause whats done is done!

Faith- I highly doubt any sperm from CD6 attempt would be around when you ovulated on CD11. It is possible but very unlikely!

As other ladies have said, don't stress over this as it has already happened. Work on accepting whatever is and you'll feel so much better. I can relate with having doubts, I already have them myself. I feel like I slacked with diet the two weeks before O. I started skimping on my supplements too and I feel we had too many attempts, making them girl friendly.

All sorts of thoughts will creep up to make you doubt yourself, but don't let them!

The pattern you mentioned is still e4d, so regardless, you did what is well known to sway girl. Think of the overall picture hun. You gave it your best shot :)

These hormones are messing with me! A kids cartoon with a sweet message about being yourself made me cry! I'm so emotional this time around! It is going to take some getting used to!
