So funny guys I too have been wondering if throwing a third in the mix is crazy, not sure if its my way of handling the disappointment of not getting pregnant super quick! I know deep down I want another but some days I think god I am so lucky to have two healthy 🍝

Whoops!! I mean healthy, handsome boys I should just enjoy and focus on them. My eldest wants another brother and my littlest wants a sis, my DH too wants another son. Coming up to my attempt in five days or so! Attempt no.4 and six months on this lovely diet! Primal mama sure sounds like you made the best decision! X

Hi PrimalMamma! I am in North Carolina, US. So much pressure being my last shot at pink:) And girliedreamz, I have decided just to go pretty vegetarian. That is still a huge dietary change for me.
I am just really unclear about when we should make our attempt. Am I correct in as soon as I get a positive OPK? That seems to be contradictory to a lot of other stuff I have read.
well i should be o end of june and will be attempting my first try :) cant see me catching straight away but very excited, extra exercise now and following my plan so fingers crossed, i have just worked out though if i do catch then i would be due on my sons 5th birthday, so maybe that means another boy mmmm xx
DH really wants me to have a daughter because I really want one. I know he'd be putty in her hands. He makes comments about walking her down the aisle or threatening her first (and subsequent) boyfriends. He really wants a Daddy's girl but, before he agreed, he said it would be nice to have a girl but even if it was guarenteed, I'm not ready to pound one into you (my wonderful, crude, hilarious hubby).
Charli33, the one attempt at pos OPK has been getting good results (or so I keep being told :P). Sound cynical, but I believe it from what I've seen thus far on the site. In addition, the intense cardio 60 mins a day 5-7 days a week seems to be doing well for a lot of people.
Good luck!

Is there a specific position that works best for TTC pink?
My sway so far- skipping breakfast, Zyrtec, and I have been testing Replens ( just finger amount about every three days). Started Crystal Light which I dislike, but am doing it for the cause:) I am a CrossFit fanatic, so I feel I can't just give that up. And from what I see online, it seems a lot of CrossFit women have girls:)
Also, have any of you ladies done anything with Ions and Aci-jel?
Hi ladies! I am new here. I have 2 wonderful fun energetic boys and I am starting to try for my third and last child. It took a lot of convincing my DH to have a 3rd. I just went off of bc pills and am starting. I've been dieting and have lost almost 15 lbs in the last 2 months. I am taking folic acid and I always take Zyrtec 1 time a day (even when I conceived my boys). Are there any other things I should be doing to sway for my dd? I don't want to go overboard with swaying but want to give it my best shot! I think a lot of it is luck and what I'm meant to have but my heart yearns for a daughter! Any input would be appreciated! Good luck girls on your attempt!!

Charli and Aoii-- Welcome the the boards and good luck! I've been on the LE diet since the beginning of February, but this is only my 3rd attempt (took March and April off). Here's what I'm doing for my sway:
LE diet (calories: 1500-1800, fat: 26-60g, protein: 40-50g)
Skipping breakfast
No snacking
Exercise (Walk Away the Pounds dvd) 5+ times a week
One attempt at +OPK
Cinnamon, folic acid, and fiber (before meals) for me
Olive leaf extract and licorice root for DH
Alcohol daily
Coffee daily
Peppermint tea, Crystal Light, and diet soda daily
Switched from coconut oil/butter/olive oil to canola oil
Sleeping on left side
Lavender diffuser in room, lavender extract on body, and lavender body wash and conditioner
Alcohol, peppermint tea, and licorice root are all stopped at +OPK
I normally take Zyrtec daily, but I'll stop it at cycle day 9. I'm not doing jump and dump or Rephresh/Replens.
Had our attempt last night! +OPK in the morning and we BD around 10pm. Had a -OPK this morning, then another positive a few hours ago. I hope we timed it right!
