Do you have to pay by PayPal?
Hey, it is what it is! If he's unable to do that, it's ok, just chalk it up to one of those uncontrollable things and let it go! For all we know this is the universe's way of helping your sway!Quote:

I have managed to do it via PayPal
Dh and I were talking last night amd I really want him to run if he could squeeze it in how often should he run? We have our attempt in 2.5 weeks, I have also been waking 5 days a week.
If it isnt possible for him will sitting with a beer and hot water bottle every evening help?
Thank you so much!!!Quote:

Ok thank you for advising us, he will try and squeeze runnung in but if he really cant then perhaps heating is an option for us
So it wont hurt our sway then if DH manges to run only 3 times a week between now and our attempt which is only 2.5 weeks aaway, I dont want his testosterone raising anymore lol
I'm getting so stressed out about dh running which I know is no good for my sway, would you mind if I started another thread/post and ask to see if tge ladies that conceived dd whether their Dh did any form of cardio and just see whatcthe outcome is it may help me to feel better about my sway?
Thank you
I can't tell you if it helps or hurts your sway (my crystal ball is in the shop this week, sadly) but here is what I DO know. a)testosterone does not rise after a couple rounds of exercise b) testosterone has never been shown to sway anyway, not even in women, but especially not in men and c) a good study showed running sways pink. Personally I would have him do the running.Quote:

Ok thank you that has actually made me feel a little better, I'll start another thread and see what the oucome is.
I really think I need to chill out about I think I'm overthinking it all.
Dh has just bought organic premium ground flaxseed a natural source of omega 3 is this ok to put on his porridge everyday will it help our sway?
We don't totally know (I really do not have the ability to test these things as I'd like) but we assume it would sway pink for DH due to the phytoestrogens. But at the same time, we also believe Omega 3 may sway blue by improving sperm count. We just don't know for sure.Quote:

Some sites say phytoestrogens even sway blue - i personally have my doubts about this, but most people do wish to avoid anything that's ever been said to sway blue (not to mention the safety element, which is really important for everyone NOT to eat flaxseed when TTC or pregnant)
I wouldn't be eaten but thank you for letting me know I didnt realise that, oh that's a tricky one I dont know whether to get him to have it or not would you say maybe it's best to avoid then
I wouldn't give it to my husband. I can't say for sure and when I can't say, I generally have people stay away.
Ok I'll nake sure he doesnt eat it, is there anything else he can have for breakfast as I know porridge isnt very pink friendly
Most of these things are for YOU, sassy. It is our bodies that have to grow a baby for the better part of 10 months, give birth, nurse, and then most of the time chidren stay with their mothers til they're adults. Males, on the other hand, can do a "hit and run" where they are basically a sperm donor, so evolution/God has made diet very important for DW and not so much DH. I think it's fine if he eats porridge (honestly, it's very unlikely porridge even matters for ladies, as it really requires supplemental amounts of highly concentrated avenocasides to raise testosterone and we're not even sure testosterone matters for swaying anyway)
He can have anything he wants for breakfast. There's no limits on DH's food. If he wanted to skip breakfast cereal and maybe not have steak and eggs, yeah maybe but I don't think anyone's sway rose or fell on their husband's breakfast. :)
Hi I have just come across this and know I'm concerned I mat have veen doing it wrong, so is it not good to eat protein with carbs or sugar together or is it ok if you stay within the limits
That advice is meant for BLUE swayers, not pink. Blue swayers MUST eat protein and carbs at meals and snacks since they don't want their blood sugar to drop ever. Pink swayers are fine to eat protein and carbs (and in fact, there's no way to avoid it since you wouldn't be able to get in enough calories every day). The HE and LE Diets are very different in lots of ways and so what works for blue swayers is NOT the opposite of what will work for pink. Pink swayers are already eating in patterns that will lower their blood sugar and do not need to worry about protein and carbs.Quote:

Ah brilliant ...thank God I thought I had it sorted and then I was thinking oh no I have been doing it wrong haha
Hi, I have lost 7lb in 2 weeks I'm just a little bit concerned that if I lose too much more I wont ovulate I'm due to dtd the week after next 1 day before I ovulate, iam sticking within my limits and eating enough calories I have also been trying to walk for an hour everyday if possible do you think i should maybe stop the walking?
You need to eat more calories (and you can up protein and fat slightly to compensate) and continue walking. Don't stop walking, eat more.
Ok thank you I'll try that
Is Baileys ok to drink or has that got too many calories for an alcoholic drink when swaying pink
It's fine with a meal, I'd not have it between meals since it's pretty sugary.
What about a glass of wine? Can I have one in between my meals or in the evening?

Hi I'm due my attempt in 3/4 days would rephresh or replens be better and also which lube is better acti jel or Ky jelly I have a feeling I used acti with my last ds
it's best to have it with a meal, but this is a cheat a lot of us myself included had.Quote:

I do think KY is a good option and it's likely a better lube. Your call.Quote:

Thank you
So I dtd last night at 10pm uk time it was 1 attempt after dh amhad released that morning and we used a little ky jelly he also had a lot of alcohol as we had been at a party i wanted to do a 2/3 cut off as I conceivedmy boys on ovulation day I wasnt due to ovulate until Wednesday but I got a positive opk today at 3pm and now I'm feeling anxious about it
Well, that's still a 2-3 day cutoff! You BD yesterday, got an opk today, you'll ovulate about 24-36 hours after first positive OPK, that's going to be 2-3 days before ovulation occurs.
OPK does NOT signify ovulation. It tells you that you WILL ovulate in 1-2 days' time after the first positive.
I have also got a little ewcm, I just hope I dont have to rely to much on the cut off part of the sway
Thank you for your reaponse I feel a little better about it
This advice even for a girl sway?Quote:
