Ok well I've never drank Coke or fruit juice so maybe I won't start now .
I'm having a coffee at 11 with sweetner and that's it for sweet stuff all day trying to fulfill my craving with raspberries!

Butterflies buttercups maybe you should buy some cheap ovulation tests strips and if you think they starting to show that you ovulating maybe confirm with the expensive clear blue

Hi ladies. I tried to log in here yesterday but couldn't access the website so some updates must've been going on perhaps. I did consume aspartame in my last sway - and no not all diet sodas contain aspartame, I know because I checked the labels of many of them. You have to look for sweetener number 951 and that is aspartame. It is def in caffeine free diet coke because that was the one I was drinking but I am not a big soda drinker. You can also find it in some sugar free chewing gums. I was thinking of trying to take some calcium again because I am not much of a dairy eater. I don't have a dairy allergy or intolerance but if I eat a lot of it I just feel all gluggy in my throat from sinus. I just worry soooo much still that something I was taking last time contributed to my miscarriage. Perhaps the cranberry and calcium together makes our environment too acidic and effects egg quality or something? I don't know, but I will be staying clear of cranberry and magnesium this time round. I'm taking prenatal multivitamin at the moment plus Vit D and Vit c, as my immune system has been low since my miscarriage. Then when I'm getting ready for r attempt (say 2 months beforehand) I will take the prenatal maybe 3x per week plus some calcium and a big amount of folic acid every day (at least 2000mcg spread out throughout a day). I will do the diet lightly and negative ion things a bit maybe and BD every 2-4 days with one attempt at first pos smiley face opk. Sometimes I feel really determined about doing a girl sway and getting pregnant again, but other times I feel scared to death about experiencing a miscarriage again. I could get a referral from my Gp to a gynaecologist for some testing I guess, but by the time I get an appointment it could be time to do the sway attempt. It's my birthday today and I am not enthusiastic at all about turning 44. The prospect of ageing and getting old terrifies me, let alone the fact that my baby making days are almost at an end. I was just desperate for one last little girl and I still get quite sad about our loss. I would be Close to 19 weeks this week and having our 20 week scan, but of course that's not to be. And I am surrounded by pregnant friends and I envy them their baby belly and feeling that new little life moving about inside them. Ok, I'm soooo sorry for venting and rambling on. I don't really have anyone else to talk to about all this and my DH doesn't feel the same desire for another baby.
In my last sway on DD I drank two pints of Diet Coke every day
So sorry to read about your loss, it is a very traumatic event to get over.Quote:

I am SO eager to start my sway, but for life/timing reasons I'm going to wait to TTC until April. That means starting the sway sometime in Jan. But I'm very ready to just get on with it. I've been watching calories and skipping breakfast since April/May and I'm back to about what I weighed when I conceived my first. I'll also be doing just the diet, 1 attempt, and no exercise. Good luck to all of you ladies who are starting sooner. I'll be following along.
Also, XX, my DS2's name is Otis. ; )
Very sorry for your loss, 1moregirl. So hard. I hope this is a successful sway for you.
So, just found out my other sister in law is pregnant. She has 2 boys too and had always said she didn't want any more.
3 guesses for what my immediate thoughts were!! Wish I could be a nicer person but will feel so jealous if she has a girl without swaying or anything.
Also, she will find out at 20 weeks which I see will be just when we start Ttc in February. Gonna feel so much pressure if it is a girl!
Hang in there! I know they say most oopsies are girls, but most people I know who had oopsies IRL have had boys.Quote:

FX for you! I'll be in the throws of the LE diet in Feb. too. Don't think we will attempt then though, unless this sweet boy is born this month instead of around his DD of Dec. 3rd.
DS1[emoji125]🏼, DS2[emoji577], DS3[emoji170][emoji577][emoji843][emoji602][emoji170] Jan. '16 I'll sway for a DD[emoji166][emoji171][emoji166] for my DH!!
Thanks for that:)Quote:

Cannot believe your due date is approaching so soon-exciting :) , I realise just how long until have been on this website now!!! It's addictive!
I no doubt won't get pregnant first month trying so will be great having a lovely group of ladies ttc at the same time eek!!! Xx
