Hi, just wondering if there is a common area where us girls TTC girls can chat? I find its very quiet I would love to have a few people to chat to about this whole swaying business. I'm in Australia i have two gorgeous sons and i'm trying for my final baby in December :)
Looking forward to chatting.
I'm in Uk, got two boys and ttc also in December be good to chat too, I'm on Facebook messenger could chat through that? If you send me your Facebook name could add you?
I don't mind having a chat on here. I'm also in Australia and have 2 boys and TTC in late November/December. We are giving it a couple months then stopping.
"Any september/october/november swaying" opened chat. We wait you there :-)
And we have an extra open chat for girls who already had their attempt or will be having their attempt in November at "November 2WW" 😊
Lovely to meet you all, how is everyone going with their sways?

Im just waiting on AF to come (due today or tomorrow) and I will officially be on CD1 of first month TTC eek! Feeling excited but bit scared lol! Been doing diet pretty well I think and exercise 6-7 days a week, been taking supplements and painting nails etc, hoping have done enough in preparation! What about you?
Hi Magical!! I've also got two boys and am currently in my first cycle for trying for a little girl. I'm probably 2DPO although I can't be sure. I've been here at this forum for what seems like forever but my husband just finally agreed to have a third child. I'm not charting which I did with my boys and I used to spend hours looking up symptoms etc. It is really hard for me not to obsess when TTC! I'm trying to stay busy and read instead but I often find myself trawling for posts here and thinking about it more than most girls moms do I guess :D
I've slacked on the diet (had McD's yesterday) but have managed to stay at least in the low range of calories and am back on track today. It is freezing here which makes me not want to head to the gym but I'll get back on top of that tomorrow.
I'm looking forward to chatting with you all :)
Keepthefaith that's so exciting I have AF now but won't be starting until December.
I've just started dieting it's hard I will be started clomid in December too, I also had to use it to make Ds2 as prescribed by my fertility specialist.
Junie I'm in Australia so it's coming into our summer so it's extremely hot.
I'm not kidding myself I'm doing no exercise lol
Dieting is going to be so hard over Christmas!! Eek
Can't wait for Christmas it's my favorite time of the year.

Both look fine to me! Maybe a little dull :D But that seems to be a given on LE. Some days I eat basically only one meal just so that it can be interesting (trust me Atomic would not recommend that LOL!) But I'm used to skipping meals and it makes the diet a bit easier for me. Honestly even if I don't get a BFP this cycle I will be skipping Christmas on the diet. I should have one more cycle before Christmas and then I will have to take a break for a cycle as there is no way I want to spend the holidays working out all the time and being hungry or feeling bad if I do enjoy a meal. I've got everything crossed that I get pregnant before hand!
I wish it was starting to get hot here instead of cold and rainy!
Yep it sure is dull lol :)
I'm looking forward to following your journey seeing you get that bfp and then finding out the gender!!!
With ds2 it took he took ages to make but once I was put on clomid i got him on month 3-4 after 2 miscarriages.
I love cold and rainy ☺️

What a journey to get DS2. I'm so sorry about your miscarriages! I hope the process to get your daughter is a lot smoother.
Me too, Im just hoping it is a daughter!!!

I don't know if I am doing it totally wrong but I am actually finding the LE diet quite enjoyable and am getting to eat things that I enjoy especially cakes and sweets etc! I have the same lunch every day which involves majorly weight watchers things but includes a sandwich, crisps and a cake! Then for dinner we have mushroom risotto or anything veggie that sticks with 40g protein, fat and calories allowance! Then we always have a supper which last night was a bit of toffee cake, three ginger nuts and a coffee! This is all well within my limits! I feel really good about my LE diet and am never starving, even with skipping breakfast which I am now well used to! Really hope I am doing it right mind you! I am def sticking to limits according to Myfitnesspal so thinking I must be ok!
I'm sure you are doing great on the diet keepthefaith! It is hard for me because I can't cook the kids and husband LE food for the most part as most things they wouldn't like (although I have been making a great veggie lasagne) and so I have to just eat something else, a few bites or nothing. I don't like eating the same thing every day so that makes things harder as well. Plus I'm just a happy boy mom. I like snacking, I like eating whatever I am hungry for, and I enjoy a nice steak :D I also think doing all the cardio is making me a bit ill as my hands are really cold all the time now- my body wants me to gain some weight I think! But hopefully it will be over soon.
Yes steak bloody hogs breath just sent me a free steak voucher because it's my birthday month....how do you say no to that lol!!!

I'll be trying nov 30th so reckon test day be mid December!
Mmm Steak! :D
I'll start testing on the weekend and keep on until AF shows LOL :) Friday I should be around 7DPO. But to be fair I have SO many IC and we are going out to parties where drinking will be involved both Fri and Sun and if I get a negative then I will feel comfortable drinking.
I'm struggling on the LE diet. I am trying to not snack but i work nights and when I finish at midnight I'm famished! I have cut down my soft drink and chocolate in take and upped my veggie intake. So far this week I've done well. I put on 3kg in the last 6 months. Not sure why so I have about 5kg to lose. We are going to attempt in December. I think I will be testing around the first week in January.
I'm so confused on what I want though. For 2 yrs I was sure I wanted a 3rd child but now I'm starting to wonder if maybe 2 kids is it for us. So that is why we will be attempting for 2 months then that will be it.
Oh Mars I'm sorry you're struggling. For me it comes in waves and sometimes it is easier and sometimes harder to stick with the diet. Just do the best you can and remember lots of girl moms don't spend their days miserable thinking about food all the time... at least I hope not! Maybe once you start attempting it will also become clearer if you want a third. I could see how getting a negative could really force you to look at if you want to keep trying. And maybe the answer will surprise you :)
That's how I am Junie. I'm going ok this week but a little naughty today. I have a cheat day every Saturday.
I'm a big believer in what's meant to be will be so I figure if we try for a couple months and fall pregnant then so be it but if we haven't by March then I think I'll have to come to terms with being a boy only mum. I just wish I could clone myself. I'm in a great place right now, got a great social life with wine dates and getting back into my sport and if I get pregnant it will all be over but I need to do it now or there will be too bigger gap between my kids.
I'm also loving life right now and am a bit scared about what having a third will entail but in the end I just couldn't imagine our lives without one more baby whether boy or girl. What sport do you play?
Cristina, I've been feeling pulling and twinges not painful like cramps but noticeable. I got shaky after drinking coffee twice and in the mornings I haven't really felt like coffee but again this could all be gearing up for AF stuff.
Cristina I feel them near my stomach so not that low. I hope this is our month too! :)
How is everyone doing? Waiting is such a pain. I should be about 8DPO hopefully things become clear by Mon.
Cristina, what have I told you? Implantation for most of the womens occure after day 7 so PLLLLS dont loose hope. I'm pretty sure this is your month!! 😘
7DPO is too early! I also got a BFN today and I'm quite sure I'm pregnant, it is just too early for there to be enough HCG in your system. It is so hard but try to just wait a few more days!!!
Fingers crossed girls!
Oh good luck ladies!!
I get so excited thinking about being pregnant :) I'm still struggling with what's best for our family. I have a list a mile long of why having a 3rd child would be bad but then my heart says screw the list, I want another, I want a last shot at having a girl.
Hi Everyone. We also live in Australia & have 2 beautiful boys and trying for a DD to complete our family.
Hi Hopefull15!
