Suregena, you are HARDLY Mcfatty. LOL. I wish I was "McFatty" like that!!
If I were you, I would be tempted to tell them I've been trying for a year. You seem to be in good health otherwise and this is weird. Have you had this happen before - with crazy cycles?

Oh, also... I'm petite... 5ft tall. 120lbs makes me a tad squishy! *pokes my belly*

I think letting go is a good idea. At the end of the day, who's to say you'll end up with a girl anyway. The question is, do you want another baby, or a girl? I got a plan from Atomic and picked what things I would do. I didn't do Rephresh or baby aspirin. I took Vitex from af to o. I took one Zytrec the morning of my attempt and I did the diet for a little over 3 weeks. It was more than I ever did before. I know I couldn't stay on the le diet forever. You've done so much already Suregena. You should be proud of yourself!! I think you should drop all the supps and dtd girl. Skip breakfast and try to stay away from meat. That in itself is a lot more than most women do and they get girls. As Atomic has said, you can't get your dg if you don't get pregnant. Good luck to you and I really hope to see an enormous BFP in your future.

I know you're right. I only have 1 child after two miscarriages and want my son to have a sibling close in age. Unfortunately, he's 2 1/2 now so the longer it takes the further apart they'd be. so I should really just try to be healthy for a pregnancy, boy or girl, at this point.

Staying away from meat is easy because I'm already vegetarian ( and so is my husband!)

Suregena, I'm in the 'let it go camp'
The top 3 things (from my understanding) is the no breakfast, no snacking, vegetarian, and I'd you can have all those boxes ticked then I think your sway is a pretty strong sway, especially considering you are coupling it with FR. I do really think that for whatever reason your body just doesn't like the confines of the LE diet and based on your cycles it's struggling to keep you functioning normally from a fertility perspective. I trully believe your best shot of getting pregnant is by sticking to the key aspects above, and just letting the rest go.


Just reassure yourself that even without the Strict LE diet you DO still have a strong sway
Best of luck!

Just what I needed to hear. Makes me want to press on next cycle despite weight gained. I do wonder if we actually got lucky with our son, considering we are both vegetarians, so I'll just keep that in my mind. I have a special, lovely, beautiful boy and we'd be lucky if we ended up with another, because the one we have is so amazing and we had a lot of heartbreak with the two miscarriages before him.

You go for it Surgena! Are you still going to temp or do opks? I would just do OPKs! Whatever you decide babe, Best of Luck!

suregena - check out this thread if you havnt already http://genderdreaming.com/forum/tryi...-got-girl.html

My mum has been a vegetarian all her life, 3 girls, 1 boy.
Of the 4 new female bubs at work, 3 have vegetarian mums.

I was going through a 'eating meat' stage in my life when DS was conceived.

changed it to opk only mode and reccons o on day 17?! so 2dpo.........must stop obsessing ;-S

CD54 today. It's edging close to being my overall longest cycle to date (last month was 50 days, last attempted sway I gave up on was 55.)

Cp is super firm and low and closed. Felt like AF was on the way... have a pad on in case, but no sign yet. What's going on?!

I'd love to do OPKs but every cycle so far I've never gotten a positive and spent a small fortune on then so far, so I feel a bit iffy even bothering using them again.
