Amazing August 2WW Thread

I am also on the petit side, eat small meals but I guess I are very boy friendly foods. My last boy I know was a 1 attempt, but I remember having a lot of stretchy fertile mucous that morning. I knew nothing about swaying back then.

Onto cycle 11 now and still persisting with LE as I really want a girl. Thanks for sharing.

I basically lived on cereal, flavoured milks, cereal bars for snacks, salad and lots of red meat, more red than chicken. Pasta maybe, once a week and not much potatos. Lived on tea, no sugar all day. No soda and very rarely did I have alcohol.

Hope you have a boy on board. X thanks for sharing.

Thread crashing (again) to say hope this is your cycle pink pony! I try and keep an eye out for your posts for when you post a bfp xxoo

After 2 days of positive opks, I woke up in the middle of the night with the strongest cramps!!! Like af type cramps but maybe worse.

This lasted for about half an hour and I managed to fall back to sleep. Now its morning, the cramping has vanished.

Do you think this was some kind of bad ovulation cramps? Has this ever happened to anyone else?

I had this last night jennypenny and was wondering the same, I have never had this before either, I wondered if it was, on my part, psychosomatic, as I have heard people talk about ovulation pain? It passed but just in time for my children to wake repeatedly through the night, exhausted.com!

Haha that's so funny how alined our cycle is!!

This was a weird cramping pain that woke me up from my sleep, v strange. I have had mild cramp feels before when ovulating but never like that.

Oh well will see how it goes today.
Just changed my progesterone blood test to next Monday even though I will be 8dpo it will hopefully be more accurate than 5 dpo (friday) x

Am due to go in for my blood draw on Friday, am away for a few days after that, I will only be dpo 5 as well. What would be wrong with going at that point? Will it just show low progesterone? Which may indicate I have not o'ed when I might have? What would gp do if it looked like I had low progesterone/ not o'ed? I really have no opportunity to go in before Wednesday next week.

Ha ha, it would be cool if we both got pregnant we could be dd buddies. I never had o pain ever, or I never noticed it, I never knew it was even a thing! X

I'm sure it will be fine for 5 dpo too, I just wanted to leave it to 8dpo as I usually start spotting early and want to see if the results reflect why this is maybe happening.

I feel like I have learned so much about fertility i didnt know about while swaying. I wish I had studied this hard at uni hahaha! !

5dpo should be ok to know if you have ovulated. Last cycle I had a test at 3dpo and my levels were what they expect to see at 7dpo so it defiantly showed I had ovulated.

Pink pony- my mother was also on the very petite side and had two boys and then me...her 'dream' daughter ( I think 28 years later I don't fit that description anymore lol) so it is possible and I want to give you lots of hope! My mom has a boy mom personality for sure and still managed to 'sway' but ultimately she did not excersise or anything like that as she didn't know about the kind of swayimg this site knows about now.

For her I think it was more luck. She had a tubal reversal and it took over a year to get pregnant with me, she said she made my dad switch to boxers from briefs and she used shettles timing of course which we now know holds little merit.. But fairly certain the tubal reversal and unknowingly 1-2 attempts in her fertile period max is probably what got her me. I also know at the time they were very poor and so she wanted her boys to eat so se often went without eating. Not that anyone would recommend that but I think it just helps verify the LE diet is probably even what she unknowingly used, just an extreme version heh
