Comments regarding DW's diet changes-
I made gradual changes to my diet for a long long time before actually ttc, probably since around August? I was a typical blue diet prior to ttc. I stopped eating breakfast, stopped snacking and gave up meat and fish gradually. By the end I was pretty much veggie.

If diet was used, length of time before attempt?
Full on, probably around 3 months
Did you skip breakfast regularly?
Yes
Did DH change his diet with you?
Yes, towards the end, he didn't become full in veggie but did reduce meat eating ALOT!
Comments regarding DH's diet-
He is a big carnivore, snacks a lot pretty much like I did before.
DId you consume alcohol?
Not a lot no
DId you try to limit caffeine?
No I didn't
Any Diet Details?
I did eat pasta as I felt it was important to still feel like I was eating 'properly'. I tried some of the fibre noodles but I found them slimy and disgusting. I really enjoyed the changes actually, it felt really healthy.
Any Diet Comments/Additional Info?

WEIGHT AND EXERCISE
What did you weigh/BMI do leading up to?
I weighed around 11st 4 at the start and finished at around 10st 9 so I lost around half a stone. I am 5ft 8 so I'm quite tall. My bmi is around 22.5

Things that make me feel great about my sway:
I was on the diet for a long time before ttc, I lost some weight (I have under active thyroid so it's quite difficult for me to lose weight), I used the supplements. Hubby did his bit. All in all I feel we followed the advice given fairly closely.
Things that make me nervous about my sway:I stress (especially about work). We already have two boys so I sometimes think we aren't 'meant' to have a girl. We got pregnant quickly and I didn't do the exercise which I was planning to introduce if we hadn't got pregnant that cycle!

Congrats & good luck!

Do you know which CDs you BDed on and what CD you got your BFP on? Best guess as to 3 day range you most likely Oed in (e.g. CD13-15)?

[Schlingel]

Hiya, we dtd on cycle day 19, I probably ovulated some time between cycle day 20 and 22 and got bfp on cycle day 29 but it was faint.

[maidentomother]

So one well-timed attempt. Awesome, thanks!

[atomic sagebrush]
