My mum, doesn't agree with DH and I having another baby. It makes me sad that I can't tel her. But she will add so much stress to my TTC journey by keeping on and on that it's irresponsible when I already have three young boys.
DH mum knows and she has been great, cooking us low sodium, low fat meals, it's been nice being able to go round her house and not having to worry. Having said that if I get a fourth boy I wil dread telling her the most as she knows the lengths I have gone through to try and get a girl. Does that make sense?

Everyone is making me hungry.... I am eating just the min needed for breastfeeding but I cut out salt, sugar, dairy and meat. So for dinner I am making a squash/pumpkin pureer (4cps blended veggies with 4cps water) I am going to use less then a cup on about 1-2cps of pasta... I am so excited o wait no can see I am lying :)

Here is my plan for my sway.....
I have been on the diet for 6 weeks now...I have cheated a few times but I eat totally different than I did when I conceived my boys...
I am taking calcium,magnesium and cranberry and hubby is taking the same
I drink at least 3 crystal light per day and at least 1 caffine free diet soda
I plan to have a hot shower and use an vinegar douche an hour before dtd
Hubby will have a hot shower
We will use sylk as lube and I will do replens fingertip after...
We will also use zyrtec around O time....
I think I am going to dtd thru O...thats the only thing I am unsure about...
We did a trial run and it went OK...PH stayed low....Hubby has trouble going really shallow..we have to work on that...
Am I missing anything? all advice is welcome

Hi ladybug sounds fab to me! have you read my plan it is on another post? I am bedding through ovulation as I need to get pregnant ASAP due to Clomid restrictions. What CD are you on or are you waiting for AF to start?
Purple I feel like I spend my whole life at the moment hungry. Watching the kids have breakfast and not being able to have any is torture.When are you starting to try?

Sounds good ladybug! Keep us updated! The only other thing I'm doing is aspirin but that's because I'm not doing cranberry

3boys, I'm finding it hard to stick to the diet this week as I'm near af, can't believe how much it's making me crave my favourite foods!!!!
-
Swish......I had trouble sticking to my diet when I got my AF too.....Thats's when I fell off the wagon a bit...
-
Ok don't feel too bad, maybe it's to be expected!!!! I'm all for new day, clean slate!!!

af is still a week away for me, and already I find myself reaching for the sweets in the evening. I'm finding sipping peppermint tea helps since with the peppermint taste in my mouth the sweet stuff doesn't taste good anyway :). I did buy some low-fat vanilla ice cream in case I have an emergency. I figure that I'm so good with calories and fat during the day that a small scoop of that every once in a blue moon won't hurt....right? I also sometimes have a thin slice of Swiss cheese if I'm craving salt so much I worry I'm going to cheat. I figure it's better to indulge yourself with not-so-bad treats than to run for the chips/chocolate and all the other glorious foods we miss so much.

Yeah I had my little cheat day a few days before AF.... It's not our fault girls it's our hormones making us!! Just think before we would have been eating our normal 'boy' diets and reaching for the extra treats so we are still doing it differently!
