November thread for all swaying BLUE xxxxx

[The Anchor]

SO FRUSTRATING. I'm on CD 9 and we DTD last night and it occurred to me that it had been almost 2 weeks since DH had "released". So I should have made him release outside, IYKWIM...now I'm worried that all those black licorice jelly beans are in there and my whole sway is about getting pg with healthy egg/sperm. And to make it worse, looks like my cycle is a little out of whack (had a m/c at 12 weeks last month) and I might be O'ing early (I usually O on CD12). Aaaaaaaargh.

Maybe just try to squeeze in as many attempts as possible until you know you've passed O? I'm sure you can get in a healthy batch or two before it's too late!

Let's hope so...FX for a later O. Thanks waffles...

Anchor lets hope all the black ones came back out and yes throw a few more loads of freshies up there and you should be good

Hi blue swayers,
I just read something about doing a "blitz" of coconut water and wheatgrass in the AF-O period.
Can anyone provide more info on that?
Many thanks and good luck Anchor!!

I think because of the expense some ladies just do a blitz of those 2 liquids instrad of drinking them for the whole month.

Yes, it is expensive to be healthy! It cost me $6.95 for 1 litre of coconut water!! Didn't ask how much the 2 bottles of alkaline water were, I probably wouldn't have bought them.
Lucky I have a great co-op 10 minutes away that stocks all these things but like you say, it really does all add up when you factor in the sups as well (which it appears I am taking A LOT of).
It will so be worth it if we get a little boy though

Two questions-
1) does coconut water taste like coconut??( sorry, stupid question, but I hate coconut!)

2) I've lost weight this month. If I've been doing everything else right, could I still sway? Or should I wait?

Vaguely but it is really different. It's actuallly not super yummy and some brands are downright gross, it's just got so much potassium in it!!

Personally, I would wait until I stopped losing weight, but it's your call to make, of course!

Not sure what a blitz is but coconut water and wheatgrass are both great for a blue sway!!

They're REALLY expensive so if you just drank them for 1 week coming into O and like 1-2 days after, it may help without breaking the bank.

I'm taking wheatgrass capsules (3 a day). Is this ok or should I be taking shots?
