BedDance Week preparation?

Hi its me again :ttc:

We will be giving after first shot in couple of weeks.

Super excited and nervous too!

I have been following this DIET

AF are due on 4th August and I am very regularly so ll be ovulation sometime around 18th or 19th of August.

Can someone tell me how to prepare for BD week once AF are over in terms of Extra Diet, supplements and Timings both for me and DH?

PS: I am only taking Folic Acid (5mg) right now and my Vitamins (One a Day Women, Coq10 & Fish Oil will come by 2nd August as I have ordered it online) so 2 weeks and 5 weeks of Diet would be enough? Or should I wait one more month?

All tips and suggestions are welcome <3

You don't have to change anything at the last minute, just keep doing what you're doing in terms of diet and supps.

I do like you guys to have at least 6 weeks and if you were fasting recently (which many of my blue swayers were fasting during June), I really think you will be best off waiting another month.

Will you be having regular intercourse or are you trying to stick with timing for blue??

I will stick with 3 times BD attempt as recommended.

Oh we were planning to give a shot this month. Yes i was fasting in June. So should i skip this month?

Also should i take mucinex and EPO from AF-O?

Did I put EPO in your plan?? I doubt I did, because I am barely ever using that any more. No EPO unless I put it in your plan, because I think it has made opposites for people. Anyone short of people who are doing high protein diets should not be on EPO.

The fasting makes me nervous. I don't have enough data to be able to say yes/no but I have had enough people getting girls during and right after Ramadan to prefer that you guys give it 8 weeks instead of 6.

Yes you did not put any EPO in my plan, I just read here lots of blue swayers are taking it that's why I asked but now it's out of my list! :)

I had an ultrasound done today and my obgyn told me I ll be ovulating in 1 or 2 days from my "right" ovary. Now I am extremely confused!!

Actually I ll be travelling to my home town on 26th Aug to celebrate Eid with family. That means no matter how hard I try, it is going to mess up with my diet a big time. I will be back by 4th sept ( I ll probably be having my Af by 2nd or 3rd of sept) so do you think I should still skip this cycle? (While I am on great diet for almost 6 weeks and 2 weeks of supplements) and try next month after coming back from vacation? :(

PS: I am having a lot of EWCM already ( still no pos opk) and Chinese calendar favors this month and next month both)

Sorry for a long post! I am super nervous and don't want to mess with my sway. I ll go with whatever you ll recommend.

I don't put any stock into owt like the Chinese calendar, you can always find some reason to try/not try this cycle is you read into things like that too much.

Imo whether you ttc this cycle depends on how time conscious you are and how disappointed you'd be if you did conceive and it ends up being a girl.

I would not be swaying this hard if i Could handle gentle disappointment easily :)

I m confused as if I have to wait.. I ll lose next month too due to travelling n diet. I already have got pos opj and siting n thinking what to do! Could not find answer.... Feeling emotional n feeling like crying out loud already.. I don't know why..

I may sound crazy. But these emotional feelings n all these stress is weird. I was waitinglike crazy for po opk... N now I don't know what to do

Please either post in the Custom Forum (I will get back to you right away there!) or give me more than a day to reply in the free forums before bumping. Bumping makes the post go back to my "new" posts and actually makes it take longer. The only time you guys should bump is when you think I've missed your post (it happens sometimes) but I need at least a few days to get through the free forum questions.

The fact is I'm too late to answer this, I apologize but Custom Swayers please post in your Custom Forum and I answer that forum daily (and usually 2-3 times a day I check it) so you'll get much faster response. The free forums take me longer to get through the questions. I'm really sorry because you are a Custom Swayer and should have gotten a faster response but there is just no way for me to read every post on the site every day.

Whatever you did was the right thing. Whether you tried or whether you waited, it was meant to be that way.

There is never a perfect month. I can see the wisdom in waiting and the wisdom in trying, but since you've already gotten a positive OPK, if you haven't already tried, I'd skip the month. It's too late now to be in with 3 attempts. If you have had an attempt, have more attempts! That way we can be sure of more than one attempt in the fertile window.

No matter what, it was meant to be that way. :)

All these things are super crazy! I was so nervous that I completely forgot about last the custom swaying thread! Lol

Damn.. i could have had ur reply earlier there!

Anyways! I was so so emotional that we had an attempted anyway :)

We did 1 in morning 1 in night
Next afternoon I checked... It was still positive so we had 1more attempted that night..

3 attempts in total.. now shall we do more attempts or that was enough?

I Don't what I did was right or wrong... I just went with what my heart said..

That is FINE!! That is what I want you to do above all else is follow your heart and gut instinct because honestly, you know your body way better than I do.

I would still keep BD every other day for a few days to be sure you're covered in case of delayed ovulation.

Good luck and tons of blue dust!!

Thanks. Ok I ll keep dtd for few more days.

I am having some stabbing pain first time ever after ovulation. In my stomach and back specially right side.... I checked ovulation again with clear blue just in case there is some false or repeat ovulation but it was negative. Do you know what this pain is?

It is totally normal!!

Many of us all boy moms, myself included, often have ovulation pains, and it is not uncommon at all for blue swayers to go onto HE Diet and suddenly start having them for the first time! :)

You can have them before, during, and after ovulation!! After ovulation is a very common time to have cramps as the Fallopian tubes cramp to move the egg down into the uterus.
