    Here it is my sway...and UPDATE!!!!!

    My dream has come true..ITS A GIRL!!!

    Thank you gender dreaming and all the ladies who have supported me along a tough journey which included 3 failed HT cycles and a natural chemical.
    I could not have done this sway with out all of you, especially Atomic!!

    Thank you Atomic for always taking the time to answer my neurotic swaying questions.!!!!
    I couldn't have done it without you!
    WOOOOHOOOO!

    Here was my sway:

    LE DIET - Started it loosely from Dec 26- Feb 1, then went full LE diet from Feb 1- got my BFP on May 13.
    No Breakfast, 2-3 meals per day, calories spread out. Lower blood sugar levels overall but just prior to O and in the 2ww was the most important.
    No snacking!!!!
    • No more than 1500 calories ( some days 1200)
    • 40-50 g of protein ( I don’t even think I got that much protein in, I tried though )
    • 20-30% calories from fat ( 25-45 grams of fat)
    • 700-100 mg sodium ( if gonna have a cheat better it be here)
    CRYSTAL LIGHT
    DIET COKE
    WATER


    SUPPLEMENTS
    FOLIC ACID 1200/DAY
    PROBIOTIC
    BABY ASPRIN 2X PER WEEK, worked my way up to 3x ( bruise easily)
    METAMUCIL/FIBER SUPP WITH NO ADDED VITAMINS
    VITEX 800 MG AF-O
    SAW PALMETTO 320 MG AF-O
    Zyrtec – I only took ½ dose on a day that I had a☺ OPK. I had NO EWCM this cycle.( this is a huge difference from when I conceived my boys)

    EXERCISE
    NO EXERCISE
    This was a HUGE deal for me. I was an avid exerciser, cardio and weights and I gave it ALL up for 4 months. Definitely lost so much muscle mass.

    TIMING
    Frequent Release for DH- starting at AF. He released for 10 days prior to our first attempt.
    BD- started 11 days after AF and BD 1x at 2 days before pos opk, 1x at 1
    day before pos opk, at pos opk in PM ( so bd in pm but got positive OPK in AM) and around 36 hrs after pos opk (probably pointless at that time because opk was negative the next am after it was postitive )

    NO Rephresh (dropped after first cycle- BFN and second cycle Chemincal), NO acijel. I also had NO EWCM…so I didn’t want to use any jellies.

    NO Jump and dump, laid down for like 5-10 mins after each attempt than got up and wiped.

    POSITION: missionary, shallow.
    NO O!

    DH –
    No Supps
    FR 10 days prior to first attempt

    PH
    4- 4.5 TESTING WITH PH STRIPS
    Didn’t make myself crazy at all about it!
