Review my new sway plan please?
Ok so after our tragic loss, we want to jump right back in. I'd love some input on my sway.
I did conceive a daughter last time, I was sick, taking coq10, royal jelly, selenium, zinc, folic, b's and vit c. I know less nutrients, but I'm old and have had bad egg quality that wouldn't even hold a pregnancy. It was also one attempt, but I couldn't tell I was O'ing at the time so I have no idea of the cut off, being sick made it all messed up. I was on a strict diet before, not low cal but no wheat or sugar of any kind (not even the sugar from milk) I was still eating cheese tho! I was also doing about 1 hr of cardio 5 days a week. I was drinking a lot of caffinated tea, which I won't be doing this time.
SO, in light of conceiving a girl after all that and wanting so badly to get my little girl again, I'm scared to take all the supps I was on but also know my egg quality was bad.
DH wants to wait 3 months. He thinks if I am in better health and fitness pregnancy will go better and I will have less difficulties. I'm of average BMI and health, on no meds (aside from the pain meds recently from my surgery) and in general good health. I told him the best chance for a DD was in the first cycle after the mc, but he told me NO WAY.
So I am going to take all the supps I was previously on, I'm cycling 1 hr a day 5 days a week and doing weights (it's his deal, or he won't ttc). I'm taking aspirin and psyillium fibre and thinking about adding in cranberry (but noticed the coq10 thins blood so not sure if I should?) Can't drink mint tea as it may mess my precarious thyroid that isn't considered problematic but seems sluggish. I'm doing a detox, just to get rid of all the chemicals from surgery etc and the drugs I've taken since. And, I'm losing weight currently. I have no appetite whatsoever, so it's a bit easier.
My diet is no wheat or sugar and avoiding most dairy. I eat brown rice bread, cheese, cucumbers, tomatoes, egg whites, chicken, apples, cranberries and brown rice cereal (this is small cut brown rice that you boil and I add a scoop of protien powder and cranberries and cinnamon to). It's a very limited diet. I occasionally eat other veggies like carrots and parsnips etc, but I find it easier if I just repeat meals. I don't eat the ceral for brkfast, I skip brkfast and usually eat 3 hours after I get up.
Does any of this sound like a disaster in terms of swaying pink?
The other odd ball thing, my hubby has ordered me a special amino acid that increases growth hormone because he thinks it will improve my egg quality and help my hormones overall. Who knows how that will sway, but I can only imagine blue! Scares me!
I understand he wants me to be strong and healthy before we TTC again, but I also feel this will strongly sway blue. Im not sure what to do about it. He won't ttc unless I'm in better shape. Not that I'm in bad shape--I'd say after my 3 months of morning sickness and 1 month of bedrest I am just in very average shape now! He has it in his head it may prevent tragedy from striking again though, and he has gone through so much I can't argue with him.
Also, I have no idea about the timing aspect but know I got my one dd from a 3 day cut off and multiple attempts (like 3 x a day on a vacation). Any suggestions on timing and cut off? I have read so much, I have been reading this site and before ingender for so many years, I reviewed all the sway info again but I feel overwhelmed.
Thoughts please?
I want to get a bfp asap and try to heal the hurt in my heart, but I also want the best possible outcome for my pregnancy. I do not want to suffer a late loss like this again!
Thanks ladies :)
