Hyperfertility, miscarriage, pink sway
Hi Ladies,
A little bit of my background and then I'll get into my questions.
I am 24 years old. My partner and I started trying to conceive when I was 22.
We had a miscarriage at 7 weeks in July 2016. We didn't try in August 2016 as we wanted to wait one cycle before trying again. I became pregnant again September 2016 which resulted in a chemical pregnancy. Hubby was away after trying for several weeks so we did not try in October 2016. November 2016 we did "try" but not very successfully (not on the right dates). We fell pregnant in December 2016 and I gave birth to a beautiful baby boy August 2017. He is now 7 months old and is perfect in every sense of the word. We were not swaying at all during this time but after I had my son I realized the strength of my desire to have a daughter. I also realized I was doing boy friendly things to increase my chances of having a healthy pregnancy.
So fast forward to January 2018. We decided to start swaying. Of course, I used IG but wish I had found this site instead. So I was on the IG girl diet for for about ten weeks. My cycle was still irregular as I had just stopped BFing. We became pregnant March 2018 and had a chemical pregnancy at 4w6d on April 9th, 2018. I do not blame the diet on the pregnancy loss as I have a history of early loss. I have been on 5mg of Folic Acid since the start of my pregnancy with my son, but from what I have read on here I should switch to Folate ( I will return my folic acid and make the switch ASAP).
So my first question:
Does anyone on here have any experience with hyperfertility? I don't think my doctor would diagnose it and I haven't been to the Dr after the chemical as I think his advice would be to keep trying as we do have a perfectly healthy baby boy.
My second question:
If I were to start the LE diet would I be able to TTC in June? I am apprehensive to wait too long as we would love to have another baby soon, especially as there is no guarantees if the positive pregnancy test will turn into a full term pregnancy.
Third question:
What supplements can DH be on during this time to improve his sperm quality? I do not want to take any measures to DECREASE his sperm quality as besides my suspected hyperfertility I am beginning to suspect his sperm might not be of the topmost quality.
I think I had more questions but I have been up most of the night with a teething baby so that is all for now. I am planning to buy a personalized plan for swaying as I think this might be our last shot. I have wanted three children but the heart break of so many miscarriages is daunting so I think I will be happy with two.
Thank you to anyone who has any input about this
