Things that make me feel great about my sway:
Things that make me nervous about my sway:
Not enough effort put into the diet. Not enough time before conception spent on the diet.
Things worth mentioning:
Had my HT baby girl at 28+4 in July 2015. She died on 1st August 2015. We went for an Embryo Transfer of our last remaining girl embryo in September 2015. Had a chemical pregnancy. After all of that I was less bothered about my sway and more interested in having a live baby in my arms.
I was worried that if I went all out on my sway and it didn't work then I would be more disappointed than I would have been if I essentially left it up to the universe to decide what I 'deserved'.
