Did you purchase and follow a GD Personalized Plan?
Yes
DIET
Did you follow a diet plan?
Yes
If yes to diet, which one did you most follow?
LE(Low Everything)- Modified because I have Celiacs and food allergies
Comments regarding DW's diet changes-
I was really not stringent in this area at all. Because I am 100% Gluten Free and have other food allergies, it was hard to restrict myself much further. I completely avoided red meat, ate more starchy carbs and empty calories than I used to, upped the amount of Crystal Light I was drinking, and restricted my calories to around 1,200 per day.
If diet was used, length of time before attempt?
12
Did you skip breakfast regularly?
No- but I went about 12 hours between dinner and breakfast
Did DH change his diet with you?
No
DId you consume alcohol?
Don't drink usually... the only time I did, ironically was very early in the 2ww for this LO.
Did you try to limit caffeine?
1 cup of coffee per day
-
Any Diet Details?
I think the biggest difference between this TTC attempt and when I TTC my boys is that I am now 100% gluten free. I also never drank coffee previously. I was on prescription antacids (Aciphex) with both of them and discontinued them before TTC this time as well.

WEIGHT AND EXERCISE
What did you weigh/BMI do leading up to O?
125lbs, BMI 22.9

Discontinued yoga, or any exercise that was too gentle as my main form of exercise. Walked briskly on the treadmill (worked up a sweat) for 45-60 minutes/ 5 days per week.

Things that make me feel great about my sway:
One attempt, my diet and body are SO different than the first 2 times I TTC. After reading and learning about swaying, everything I did before TTC my boys was textbook boy conception stuff. I had been on RX antacids for years and stopped taking them before TTC this time, so I felt like if there was any chance of TTC a girl, this would be it.
Things that make me nervous about my sway:
I was not charting- it was spur of the moment sex, and I had an orgasm. I had also totally stopped exercising in the month leading to TTC because I was busy.
Things worth mentioning:
I charted when TTC both of my boys and got pregnant on the first attempt (super lucky). I charted again the first time, but missed the fertile window because my periods had become somewhat irregular- when I threw caution to the wind, we had good sex, when we felt like it and boom, pregnant with a girl. I was completely shocked when I got the call with the results of the Harmony test![]()

May I ask what you ate on the LE diet? I have Celiac and food allergies as well so I'm not sure what to eat when I do start the diet since I'm already so limited.
Congrats on your girl!!!
