Comments regarding DW's diet changes-
LE PCOS
I drastically decreased the amount of dairy I consumed, very seldomly had dairy only enough get myself to ovulate the month I conceived. Ate very little animal products and tried to stick to eating vegan for the first 4.5 months of diet. Cut out red meat entirely - only had about 3-4 cheats during swaying. Very seldomly had sugar - some cheats here and there. First 1.5 months of diet I started regular LE and then transitioned to LE PCOS.

Any Diet Details /Additional Info?
Limited sugar heavily, 90% vegan, all whole grains, lots of vegetables and fruit. I ovulate sporadically and have long cycles, but I did cut back too far for most of the diet and stopped ovulation even with letrozole. Limited amount of garlic/ onion and celery ate in attempt to lower my testosterone (slightly elevated with PCOS). Drank lots of crystal light/ equal, not really for sway I started drinking it frequently before swaying since I struggle with water intake.

Lowest conception weight. Both I and DH were eating very different than when our son was conceived (very girl friendly)
Things that make me nervous about my sway:
Didn’t get to exercise month of attempt as often as I would’ve hoped, had a couple cheat days month of attempt.
Didn’t get to attempt with FR or longer abstain
Things worth mentioning:
We prayed and manifested like crazy - I kept envisioning a baby girl in my future the entire sway
