The LAZY Swayers

[babydust]

Hi girls! Really enjoyed reading through this thread and think I will join you! . Got my BFP from
My August sway an also decided to do a "lazy sway". I didn't want to get all
Caught up in the swaycession again so decided
To sway only 2 weeks before the attempt ( officially decided only
1 week before). For me, it helped a Lot to keep
Stress low.

What worries me is that I might have dtd
Right on O. And we only dtd once Dh released in the morning, we did an extremely shallow attempt right after, and then dtd that night Me on top, deep release, did j and d and sem right away. So we might have dtd a few hours before or the hour of O!! But I took 1/2 benedril 30 min before and after attempt and used rephreshnand baby aspirin. So hope that helped my
Cause. Haha.

I do think I had a better sway than with my DD even
Did way more the morning of attempt with jelly's and supps. Plus stress
Was lower. Not as good on diet this time but overall I think my
Diet was girl friendly and I did lose some weight.

I'm a perfectionist but I'm so glad I didn't try and perfect my
Sway this time around. I feel good about my testosterone levels at least. And who knows, I could
Have even dtd the day before O

Could you have achey feelings in ovaries day after O?? I had these on Sunday ( we dtd Sat night) and did have once batch of thick Ewcm Sunday afternoon. Then Monday started the crampy feelings. Had no O pains on Saturday ( day of
Attempt). Sooo I think it's more likely that I O'ed on Sunday with very little Ewcm. It was thick
And creamy, TMI! Haha. Had a fair amount of Ewcm
On Sat but ph was still 5.0.

Anyhoo, wanted to wish u all luck!! You can check out my full LAZY SWAY in the "swayed for
A girl section" if u want. Plus my FF chart is in my
Siggie.

Oh and I'm just reading this now. So sorry to hear about ur loss christa . ((hugs))

I think your sway looks great!!! Yes you can have pains the day after O. It has something to do with the fluids after the egg bursts that can cause the pain.

I found out today that my girl sway worked! My genetic testing from my d&c showed she had a balanced translocation the same as the little boy that we lost in 2009. After 4 boys (5 counting my loss from 2009) I finally got a girl, she may be an angel in heaven but she still counts).

I plan on swaying again using the same techinque.

Thanks for sharing that extremely personal info, Christa. I'm so sorry you lost her.

If you don't mind, what did you do with diet? Would you mind if I added your little angel to our stats??

[babydust]

Oh gosh, christa, I am so sorry for your loss ((hugs)). Thank you for sharing your story and journey with us. Xoxo

Atomic-yes you can add that to the stats

I skipped breakfast, for lunch I would eat half of a cheese sandwich, or taco with corn tortillas with little meat, no avacado, and a touch of salsa. For dinner I ate a lot of baked chicken, didn't eat the skin, some flavored boxed rice (only ate a few bites just to taste). If I snacked it would be on grapes (red), strawberries, or orange sherbert push ups pops that had aspertame. I drank one water bottle daily of crystal light.

I honeslty think the biggest sway factor for me was cutting WAY back on my salt intake. I would always add salt to everything, sandwiches, spaghetti, veggies. While swaying I didnt add salt to anything. I think the aspertame aslo worked well with lowering my ph and keeping it low.

Did you take the cal-mag? Sorry for asking so many q's.

[bigchrista]

Now worries on all the questions. No, I didn't take any addtional supp. All I took was 800mcg of folic acid.

thank you!!

Hi there. I am a lazy swayer, so I guess this is a good spot for me. I can't stick to the diet, but figured I'd try to reduce overall caleries, drink tons of CL, chart, use rephresh, time... I hope that's enough. If not and we have another boy, my youngest will have an excellent playmate! I know this is the last one though and told DH he can get his V as soon as this one is born.
