Hi,
We have decided to start out sway end if sept after our hols with hope to ttc in nov! Anyone else?
We are waiting to TTC pink till the fall. Will probably have first attempt in September.
I was planning to wait until sept/oct time but im getting so broody and thinking I may move it forward to july :) ttc pink also xxx
Hi - TTC pink, beginning basic sway tactics now (diet etc) and going to try SI in Sept. Have 1g, 4b already x
Hi. I am TTC Pink starting first cycle Sept as well :)
Hi... I am having my tubal reversal on September 13 and then well be ready to start TTC as soon as the dr tells me I'm healed! :)
Oh and I started the LE diet on Thursday the 22! I also bought a personalized plan but haven't gotten it yet... I'm so ready to start trying its ridiculous! But I'm nervous too!
I am starting my sway now. I ovulate around September 16th so hopefully I get a BFP by the end of September!!!!
Hey, I am came off birth control this week :) so officially starting my sway. Although I am not sure when I will ovulate as tandem feeding my boys. Will just keep with the LE diet ( have lost a total of 20 lbs) in past three months & wait & see if/when I ovulate :) good luck every one
I am starting my first attempt in October! Should be around the second week. Started the diet two weeks ago for a girl. Newer to this site.... we have two DS's and I would love to add a DD to our brood. But this is my last babe for sure (although my husband would probably go for four if I gave the okay!)
Onemoretry you and I sound exactly alike! DH would definitely go for 4 if I'd let him lol... I'm supposed to ovulate around second week in October as well! I have my preop appt on sept 27 and can't bd until then.... Since I'm having my reversal on Friday we have to be very careful in the next few days because I could end up preggo too soon!! Anyway so excited for all that to happen and praying that the surgery is indeed a success!!

Hi ladies, I'm also hoping to ttc Sep/Oct as DS2 has just turned 13 months old and is still bf so PPAF hasn't turned up yet. Thinking it will arrive when he turns 14 months as it did when DS1 turned that age. Been on diet since January but lost loads of weight too quickly so have been quite relaxed recently. If AF does return may toughen it up a bit and get back on track. Most of the other ladies I thought I was going to be cycle buddies with when I first joined this site are already pg and halfway through their pregnancies so hoping it's me next!!
So excited yet so scared!!! Good luck to us all xxx
Sweet mummy are you still nursing? Hope af returns soon!
Bayou dancer that's exciting!!' Hope everything goes well and as planned!!!!
Thanks onmoretry.... Well was ok definitely not like I expected... I was thinking it would all be laparoscopic and only be 3-4 days off work... Turns out it was full abdominal surgery and 2 weeks off work! They cut me on my csection scar!!! Needless to say I was in total shock... But the good news is that the dr was able to repair both tubes! He wants us to try with the next cycle (which we were already planning) only think is that it kinda messed with my sway so well see!! I know all this pain will be worth it when I'm holding another little bundle whether it is pink or blue!!!

Hi Ladies,
I'm new here and planning to ttc in mid-late October (I'm on CD15 today, and still haven't Oed). Hoping desperately for a little girl. My son is 28 months old and still nurses to sleep, middle of night, and morning (breastfeeding sways pink, right?). I'm really late on starting all the swaying tactics. I came across this website months ago, got completely overwhelmed and basically hid under a rock until a few days ago. Trying to catch up now! :-)
I totally know what you mean tmolly... I'm on cd 14 right now too and still no o... I started doing opks yesterday as I noticed some ewcm... Started the supps a few days ago... Atomic wanted me wait till I was a healed a little from surgery because they may increase bleeding.. But so far they haven't.. I know the folic acid, Metamucil, and pregnitude are ok to take bc dr wanted me to take prenatals etc... Anyway our first attempt will be mid to late October! I am so excited about it! No intercourse for me for 4/6 weeks until I am healed so it'll be perfect timing!

Wow Bayoudancer, I admire how you're bouncing right back after surgery! Hope you have smooth, boring recovery. :-)
The only supp I'm taking so far is Folic Acid, and I bought some Zyrtec to take AF-O next cycle. My husband is taking Licorice Root, Calcium and Magnesium. I'm planning to use Rephresh every 3 days, have my husband abstain for 7 or more days, then at +OPK, BD standing up in a hot shower. But now I don't know... maybe that's too much to actually get pregnant? Wondering if I should sneak in a second attempt somewhere or drop one of these tactics. Hmmm, decisions, decisions....
Thanks... Today was the first day I've felt ok... Pretty sore and bruised but I'm making it... I know it's tough to decide which sway tactics to use... DH and I are both taking supps, I was planning in doing rephrase but now I don't know if I'll be able to do that... Well have to see about that one.. Dr wants us to bd every other day cd 10-20... Atomic suggested every 3 days so I know what you mean about all the different decisions... Sigh... I started taking opks a few days ago and still nothing... I'm on cd15 today.. I'm hoping the pregnitude will help me with my cycles but well see about that as well... I'm trying to stick with the diet as much as possible but it's been really hard because I have to eat every so often while on these meds...

CD18 and I FINALLY get a positive OPK. But barely any CM, and it's dry/tacky. Is that normal?
Hi tmolly.. I'm jealous! I have GOBS of EWCM but NO positive opk... We're not ttc this monthbut using this as a test run so to speak lol... I'm hoping to get a + soon... I'm using ICs right now but will probably buy a pack of digitals next month just to confirm o... Anyway to answer your question I think that is normal... Not everyone gets ewcm when they o... Everyone's cm is different and if your taking supps especially sudafed it'll dry up cm which is what you want for TTC pink :)
This is my first month on the diet and supplements and I hardly had any ewcm... i guess that's good for swaying pink! :) must mean thigns are working. I usually have gobs of it too... I had three days of positive opks... they didn't work for me when ttc ds2 so i was a little worried but apparently they are working. but now i am confused as to when i ovulated bc they were positive so long and don't necessarily seem to correspond with my chart. Ugh! bayou hope you get a positive opk too... this was also my trial month. i used wondfos and bought about a million of them. so far so good.
OH and sweet mummy are you still nursing at night? if you are quitting the night feedings will prob bring af back.... at least it does for a lot! i didn't have af for 18 months after both of my kids and nursing
Wondfos... I guess I need to try them... I just bought some like 50 and 10 pregnancy test for like $13... I guess they are working lol.. With no + opk it's hard to tell... I think my line today was a wee bit darker than previous days... Guess well see tomorrow.. How often are you testing? I'm testing once a day for now and then once I start seeing a darker line then ill test more often.. Debating whether or not to get digis for this month too so I'll know for sure as my dr recommended them.. When we were TTC ds2 I had 10 days of + opks turned out it was because of all the cysts I had.. I'm hoping I get one day this go round cause that would really mess up me having one attempt lol
Well I think I got my first positive opk today! Too bad we can't bd yet...

Same here, this is my test month to see what my cycle is like.
At first, I bought a pack of 7 First Response tests for like $22 dollars at Target (the cheapest OPK they had). I didn't realize I'd run out so fast, so ordered those 50 OPK + 10 pg tests from Amazon (the top selling one, don't think it's Wondfo though). THEN I panicked that they wouldn't get here in time to fully track this cycle, so I ran into CVS for more test strips (they had their own generic brand, $23 for 20 strips). And I swear, 4 hours after buying the CVS ones (and already using one), my Amazon package arrived! Ugh!
I was testing once a day, but increased it whenever I saw a medium dark line.
As for my pos OPK yesterday, it was followed by two very neg OPKs (6 and 8 hours later -- tested so close bc I wanted to be sure, and to try the Amazon ones I got), and then another strong pos OPK this morning. I'm guessing that once the LH surges, it can fluctuate, but the timing of ovulation should still be based on the first pos OPK, right? I'm trying to post a photo of the tests...
It's hard to read what I wrote on the test strips, I should tape them to paper or something. And timing is so sporadic bc I was trying to ration the tests at first, then got a bunch and started testing like crazy.
The strips read:
CD18 11:10am -- Positive
CD18 5:05pm -- Negative
CD18 7:40pm -- Negative (was more obviously negative at testing time)
CD19 10:10am -- Positive (got so used to writing CD18, oops!)
Attachment 14279
I tested three times a day around the time I knew I would O (so starting on day 11 I tested three times a day... yikes! THat's why I got the cheapies lol). I did not have a positive ever when trying for my first, and the ob ended up testing me to see if i was ovulating (i was! and i was actually pregnant :)! So this time around I figured I would test a lot. Ha! i had a definitive negative in the am, but by 2 pm the test was positive on CD 12. I got the wondfos on ebay I think it was 50 opks and 10 or 20 preg tests for $20. Not bad. I tried all the expensive ones when I was ttc ds2 and since they didnt' work for me i figured ICs would be the best route!
Well here is my definite + taken at 7:30pm... I wonder how many + I'll get this month lol... I had 10 days of + when TTC ds2!
So it looks like we have the same schedule! We od at the same time hopefully well all get our bfps the same time too!!! Who is TTC this month? And who is waiting till next month?

Hoping this is the case for all of us soon!!! Xx
Today is cd1 for me!! So we get to start TTC in just a few short weeks!!! I can't believe it! I'm so nervous about the whole thing! You'd think it would be our first lol... I was starting to get really relaxed about the whole thing.. My diet and supps are still going great but just relaxing my mindset about the whole thing... And then cd1 came and I'm like omg!! Here we go!!! Lol... Anyone else feel this way?

My cycle started on Oct 1st, which makes it easy to keep track of my cycle day, at least -- "Oct 10th? I'm on cd10!" ;-p
I'm going to start using my OPKs tomorrow, as well as start using Rephresh tomorrow night. Hoping to ovulate between cd16-cd19, but we'll see.
I originally planned to abstain and have one attempt at pos OPK, but I really really want to get pg this month, so I'm on the fence about more attempts. One of my closest friends just announced that she's 5 weeks pg, so now I really feel like the pressure's on -- MUST GET PREGNANT! Lol...
I'm wondering if we should try something like "hurry-up CFR" 1 or 2 days after our first attempt, just to get a second attempt in there and hopefully not swaying too blue. Or just BD through O and continue using Rephresh to try to keep the environment girl-friendly? Ugh, decisions, decisions...
What are you ladies doing?
Hoping soon! Been "swaying" so long I'm going to have to get serious when AF does show up and will probably ttc when I feel like I've really depleted my conditions because I still feel quite healthy and in buy territory iykwim xQuote:

Hope that doesn't mess with my ovulation too much. :-/
How is everyone doing?! Im cd12 and so ready for our first attempt! I'm not getting my hopes up for the first try but a girl can dream lol... Since starting the diet I have lost 13 pounds even without exercising... I'm hoping that's enough cause I'm still really sore from surgery so working out is just not an option right now... Anyway hope everyone is well!
