Things that make me feel great about my sway: My supplements, dairy increase and workouts were excellent- I worked out more efficiently and became fitter with this attempt than I did with my previous successful blue.
We also had more frequent unprotected BD leading up to the attempt and O week than my previous sway.
Things that make me nervous about my sway: 2 months before my sway I was on a low carb, intermittent fasting diet focused on weight loss (I have a higher bmi)
I’m worried this may have effected me negatively somehow...
I also had a IUD removed in September this year- this also makes me nervous as there’s really no solid info on the effects when it comes to swaying.
