Any July/August/Sept 2014 Swayers?

My boys are delightful but I want a girl or two to adjust the balance! DS1 and DS2 share a room and play wonderfully together other than occasional sharing problems. And DS1 adores little DS3 and is really protective of him :)

I bought a plan this time as I had a failed sway with DS3 so thought I needed more help from Atomic. Who knows why we got blue again even with a strong sway. Having said that we are doing some things differently this time so hopefully the sway will be even stronger and we'll get pink!

I purchased a plan. I didn't want to get too stressed out and Atomic puts so much work into them. It is awesome knowing exactly what to do and when... now I just have to follow it! I think the BD timing might be hardest but I am hoping following the diet and exercising will keep it from being too important.

No meal plan for me. When I got pregnant with my daughter I was drinking a lot of teas, eating soups, and working out a lot. I am just going to do the same. I am too nervous to do anything that will make me unhealthy, like the use of artificial sugars. I just can't risk it.

Hey ladies, mind if I join? I'm planning my girl sway for august.
I've loosely started the diet now by going veggie and attempting to stop snacking...which has been an epic fail so far as I seem to be snacking more than before! I'm a constant snacker as I'm a sahm so the kitchen cupboards are never far away, need to get some will power!!

Anyway I'm planning to start the diet properly the second week of May and my sups etc, oh and I need to figure out how on earth to use the opks as I'm not having much luck deciphering them so far. I'm really hoping that I get pregnant the first month trying as I think I'm going to find the diet quite tough. Plus I just want it to be done now so I don't have to think about it anymore. I know I will be happy with another boy, but a girl would be a nice change!!

I purchased a plan today and am planning on starting the diet ASAP. I found that coconut water now comes in a powder form which is quite concentrated. It seems to go down a lot easier because I sort of shot it.

Hi twinkle toes!

Day One of LE proper for me today! Exciting :) Fingers crossed my sway works this time!

GL weezie - hopefully the diet comes back to you easily !

weezie - do you mind me asking what you plan on doing differently this time around for your sway?

Hiya BlueBonnet. I'm actually quite excited to start the process again. When we found out DS3 was a boy I wondered if we would have to go HiTech next time but we just don't have the money to fly somewhere and pay for something which might not succeed. So we're on the sway again.

The main differences this time are that I'm taking Vitex and DH is taking Olive Leaf. We will only have one attempt as we DTD a few times last time in order to maximise our chances of getting pregnant as I'd lost too much weight - BMI was 18.5. I'm starting off the LE at 1900 calories as I am BF and as I say, I lost weight too fast last time. I did use Rephresh last time but am not convinced we timed it right for it to help us. In terms of the actual diet, I am changing that dramatically. I always cook from scratch and eat whole grains etc so when I did LE last time I simply cooked myself a meatless version of what the family was eating, plus I made things like black bean burgers and chocolate courgette muffins. When I looked back over it all, I thought it all still seemed very nutritious even though it was lower in fat, protein and calories. Soooooo this time I am going to eat more processed foods and fewer wholegrains.

I guess I feel like I made some changes last time but maybe not enough to convince my body that times were hard. Plus I am a couple of years older so that should sway a little pink too!!! :)

Is anyone still nursing and can't lose weight? I swear I could eat nothing all day and still not lose a lb. When I am nursing the weight sticks to me like glue, but because of my DD health issues I don't want to wean her. Anyone else have this problem?
