Hi there just looking for advise on your cycle as I heard dtd after your period sways pink and for blue it's longer cycles after day 20 for ovulation
I am on vitex and saw palmetto to shorten my cycles as they are not regular . Should I wait until my fertile window is early in a cycle in a few months time to sway pink
Also if you feel ovulation from your right side does that also sway boy ?
Speak soon
Hi and welcome, Pink!
Timing doesn't sway. It's been totally debunked and many people could DTD right after their period and NEVER fall pregnant that way. I did exactly that with my first child, DTD the day after I got after my period not trying but because I thought it was safe and he is a boy!
Longer cycles may or may not be associated with more boys. It depends on why they are long. If they're longer because you have PCOS then yes we do see more boys conceived in that case (and vitex and SP may help that). If they're longer because you're very thin or exercise a lot then that may sway pink and vitex and SP may delay O or even stop it and you'd need to be careful not to use the herbs in the wrong set of circumstances.
Are you doing diet?? Many of us see our cycles normalize (going from long to normal) on LE Diet particularly on the PCO-type diet which is in this thread (and you can follow this even if you don't have PCOS) http://genderdreaming.com/forum/gend...rt-3-pcos.html
Side of ovulation - some researchers found that when you O in a pattern of L, L, R, it may sway blue. But it's impossible to know, short of ultrasounds, when that is happening, and one month in isolation really doesn't tell you much. Many of us have gotten girls from Right and boys from Left.
I am on low calorie diet but from today I am adjusting as follows
Breakfast none
Cappacino
Lunch veg salad
Snack Greek yogurt
Dinner goats cheese salad
Or chicken and broccoli
Or flatbread with cheese
Or spicy chicken wrap
Drinks water wine peppermint tea liver detox tea
Supplements vitex saw palmetto calcium and magnesium
Just joined gym this week
How does this look
I had a baby boy 10 months ago
Do you have nutrient totals?? The foods are all ok but I need to see calories, protein, fat intake before I'm able to sign off on anything.
What is in the liver detox tea?
You cannot do both saw palmetto and pep tea. Pick one.
Congrats on your baby boy, now let's get that girl. :)
The liver tea is dandelion ,milk thistle ,licorice root and chamomile
It was recommended from health shop as my ovulation day is only day 25 or more
I was hoping to ttc next cycle ?
Drop the tea, licorice root is not good when TTC. It may make it more likely that your baby has developmental delays.
There are things we can do to fix that late O date but that is not the right thing to do.
Is this something that is a new development or is that usually when you ovulate??
No my cycles have been all over the place since my periods returned
33 days and 45 last cycle . I am currently on day 24 with low fertility day on monitor . I have been on vitex now for five months with no break
Wondering if I should have a break today until my next period ?
Can you conceive a girl with cycles this long ?
The reason your cycle is doing that is because of the vitex. It needs to go right away. People used to use it as a birth control pill because it delays and even stops ovulation when taken many months in a row like that.
yes you can conceive a girl with cycles like this when they are caused by vitex and not PCOS!!
Okay great going to ttc next month .
I have stopped vitex today and going low everything diet with cardio and calcium and magnesium supplements and folic acid ������
Thanks for the advise will keep you posted x
I am also going to bd every four days then since I don't know my cycle with hopefully one attempt with creamy cm present
Hubby on licorice root and tight shorts lol
Maybe in the shower
Looking good!! LMK if I can be of any more assistance.
How much weight do I need to lose I'm a size 10 uk and 10 stone
Also how do you know which month is going to be right to conceive a girl
I was thinking if cycle shortens with creamy cm ?
Thanks for all the help
Losing weight is just one thing that may help but isn't necessary. Lose what you can to be healthy, because we don't want weight flying off of you too quickly and make ovulation go away.
There is no way to predict the right month to conceive a girl. If so, we wouldn't have to sway we would just pick that month and be done with it, hahaha!
CM isn't always a good indicator of cycle length. It often become unreliable once swaying starts as the LE diet is known to make CM drier for most ladies.
FX and GL to you!

There is no set amount to lose. We see best results with 12 weeks + on diet, so I'd aim for that.Quote:

Some do notice changes in cycle or differences in CM, but others don't, and there seems to be no hard and fast rule - some of the people who see big changes in their cycle/cm still get boys, and people who don't still get girls. I would just TTC when you're ready.
