DIET
Did you follow a diet plan?

Yes

If yes to diet, which one did you most follow?

• LE(Low Everything)

Comments regarding DW's diet changes-

I'm a big eater usually, and I tried to really cut back on my portions. I definitely ate less protein and fat. I'm not a breakfast person, but I did cut out my evening snack and pushed lunch back as late at 1pm or 2pm some days. I also dropped a lot of calories by drinking less mt dew. I did not go vegetarian, but I stuck to fish, chicken, and some pork.

If diet was used, length of time before attempt?

I started the LE in late June, was on it pretty strict until I got a BFP in October, then went off the diet completely for 3 weeks. Then when I had my loss, I went back on the diet but was only on it about 2 weeks before I conceived again. So, about 16 strict weeks, 3 weeks off, then 2 weeks back on.

Did you skip breakfast regularly?

Yes

Did DH change his diet with you?

Yes

Comments regarding DH's diet-

He switched to soy milk and diet soda, and tried to eat less nutritious food with me.

DId you consume alcohol?

• No

DId you try to limit caffeine?

No, I drink caffeine regularly

Any Diet Details?

I tried to do the alcohol, but I had really struggled with it, so I only did a drink every few days, and I wasn't drinking at all the cycle I got my bfp.

Any Diet Comments/Additional Info?

By the time I got my BFP I had to increase calories to 1800 per day to slow weight loss.

WEIGHT AND EXERCISE
What did you weigh/BMI do leading up to O?

I was 125lbs when I started the LE diet, so BMI 20.9, with body fat around 24%. I was 112 when I got my BFP, BMI 19.2 and body fat 20%. This was my lowest adult weight, but at conception I was at my same conception weight at DS2.

Any Weight/Exercise related additional info/comments?

I had to stop exercise in August due to losing weight too fast, so I tried to do couch potato, but I am a very active person in my regular life.

DH Supplements

-

Any additional supplement info?

DH took OLE for almost 12 weeks before our attempt, 1000mg per day.

I took fiber most days when I remembered, and folic acid on every other day because it made me sick. I was on iron every 3rd day due to anemia.

Did you do anything with Ions?

I had a lavender air freshener in the bedroom, switched to lavender soap and deodorant.

Moon Phase during conception?

First Quarter

Did you use any Old Wives Tales?

I had pink baby ballet shoes under the mattress

Things that make me feel great about my sway:

DH was on OLE for a long time and we only had the one attempt with a pretty good abstain (maybe a week or more).

Things that make me nervous about my sway:

I was off the diet during my loss cycle, I didn't exercise but I also wasn't completely idle. I was also smaller than when I conceived my first DS, but around the same size as second DS.

Things worth mentioning:
