Did you follow a diet plan?YesIf yes to diet, which one did you most follow?
- LE(Low Everything)
Comments regarding DW's diet changes-After 6 months of not conceiving, I had loosened up the diet. I started out very strict... but I was on it so long that I couldn't keep that up. I stayed mostly vegetarian (though I was vegetarian when I conceived 2 of my 3 boys, too), low fat, super light breakfast. I did cut down on salt, garlic, some of the "boy" foods.If diet was used, length of time before attempt?I started doing low cal in Jan 2013 for weight loss purposes after my last ds, then found this site and got a personalized LE diet plan in May. I did the diet religiously for about 6 months...then due to family issues decided to delayed TTC and got totally burned out on the diet. (Note to new swayers: do not start the diet too early!) So it was a loose LE by the time I actually conceived.Did you skip breakfast regularly?NoDid DH change his diet with you?NoComments regarding DH's diet-His diet is so mega healthy. I was trying anything to get him to eat junk food! Lol! He is a health nut, so eats super low cal, gluten free, dairy free, tons of veggies and Omega 6 oils. And he takes handfuls of supplements a day. I don't even know what all he takes.DId you consume alcohol?
- Often- daily
DId you try to limit caffeine?No, I drink caffeine regularlyAny Diet Details?I was drinking more than I usually do...a few drinks a day! Lost more caffeine than I have had in the past, too, mostly just to stave off hunger.Any Diet Comments/Additional Info?-WEIGHT AND EXERCISE
What did you weigh/BMI do leading up to O?138lbs/25BMIAny Weight/Exercise related additional info/comments?I upped the exercise big time in the month I conceived! I was doing an hour a day on the elliptical or going for long walks with the two little boys in the stroller 5-6 days a week.THINGS in VG and CONCEPTION DATE(CD) INFO
weight: I had lost about 30 lbs from Jan 2013, then gained about 12 back over the holidays with loosening my diet. I managed to lose 3 of that right before conceiving. Overall, I was about 10lbs heavier than my lowest weight this year. :/

DH Supplements-Any additional supplement info?I took Vitex in the few months leading up to TTC. Month #1 TTC, I did clomid (and had a bad reaction). Month #2 vitex. Month #3 super low dose clomid. Month #4-6 nothing.Did you do anything with Ions?
I had massive cm that month, so I did take a zyrtec early in the day.My toenails are always painted. And I've been wearing a rose-quartz pendant. Other than that...not really.Moon Phase during conception?New MoonDid you use any Old Wives Tales?NopeThings that make me feel great about my sway:I was exercising like a demon! Lol! We conceived on month #6 of trying, so at that point I was so over TTC.Things that make me nervous about my sway:We'd sucked the joy out of "us" so that month I went out and bought hot pink lingerie and we just enjoyed the experience rather than thinking in clinical terms.
I was not at my lowest conception weight by a long way. I had gained back some of the weight I'd lost on the LE diet over the previous year, and my diet was very loose at that point.Things worth mentioning:-
