Back and considering ttc for a fifth
Hello all!!! I was here right before I conceived my DD3. Im back after a few years. Here’s my story. Would love any feedback!
Had DD1 without trying on the first month.
We had a miscarriage.
DD2 heard of the shettles method and tried, but couldn’t really work it. Focused on eating more salty like foods and more foods in general. Conceived after hubby got back from several trips for residency interviews.
DD3 I tried a few things including shettles, but again was just not conceiving so stopped that. Conceived after trying for several months. Found this group right before conceiving. I tried some of the tips here before conceiving, but it was only for a month (and now I don’t remember any of them lol).
Dd4 was a complete surprise. Our oops! We thought we were done with 3. She is the best surprise EVER!!
Well, I still have a desire for a son. I’ve longed for a boy since we decided to have babies. I absolutely love and adore my girls of course! Would never trade one in. Whenever I hear of someone having a son though I always feel a bit sad. Am I missing out on something?!
Five sounds INSANE but so did four. Lol I am a personal trainer on the smaller size. I vary between 110-112lbs. I eat small meals often.
Can someone lead me in the right direction for food, exercise, timing, etc? I’m interested in anything that might help if we decide for a fifth. Like I said, I’m not sold on the idea of 5 but my heart still feels like a boy is missing in our family. I feel like he exists. Am I crazy?! Lol
Where I am at right now. Our 4th is 11 months and I am still nursing. I’ve focused on putting on some muscle mass and have already gained 3 lbs in the last 3 months. I am very lean and would like to stay lean just increase my muscle if possible. Lifting 3x p week and cycling (focusing on legs vs heart rate) 2x p week. What else should I focus on right now? How long after nursing should we wait to try? Etc.
Also, is there anyone here with four of the same gender and conceived the opposite? Thanks in advance.
