I want this answer too! I could have written the exact same Q!

Here's Atomic's link about it and it doesn't appear to make a difference but I'd love to hear peeps opinions on it.

It went well, much better than the 1st time. I did BSF instead of BSD this time since no CM. I really have no CM, though, so I hope that changes in the next 2 days. The Mucinex doesn't seem to help at all anymore and before would only help for an hour or 2. AF-O taking 1200mg 2-3 times/day. I wonder if I should stop doing some of the supps, my CM was never a problem before but seem really low the last couple of months. My DH took the Mucinex 1 hr before but hates it since it makes him cough. I don't seem to have a problem my smoking little man! I wish he would do the URAL and make his PH top notch. Everyone on IG when the posted their sway seem to have had DH's PH up to a 9 and conceived boy. Can't check of coarse now since he are abstaining but I wish both of ours is higher. I'll see what mine is closer to O though.

Plan to DTD tomorrow night or so (the 12-18hrs after 1st +opk). Don't have any line at all on OPK yet (CD13) We have counseling on Tuesday (Supposed O day) to discuss a pending family matter w/ SIL we can't seem to agree on but I told him it couldn't get ugly enough that we won't DTD that night. I'm a little nervous though cuz it hits a sore spot of him thinking I don't respect him (I do, but he is wrong in this situation -I could PM you if you are dying to know) It could go horribly wrong and he is kinda crabby this week and we aren't connecting that great on & off. Oh well, I can only control what I can. I think it will be fine.

Not sure what to do about the CM though, I've never tracked it before, but I remember having quiet a bit. Funny I used to think there was something kinda gross and wrong about my body. I had no idea what a blessing it was. TMI but whatcha gonna do.

My cm isnt much & it comes & goes throughout the day but i suppose it might increase closer to ovulation time. Are you going to try preseed or ew for your attempt? I also think that the mucinex/robitussin only thin out cm that's already there, i dont think they increase cm. I read somewhere that okra was really good for cm, i read that you eat 2/day without the seeds from AF-O, i havent tried it myself but might give a go if i have yet another failed attempt

HI everyone, I was just linked to you, I am attempting my sway in Sept-Oct, but I am also new! So Looking to learn and meet some other buddies! I have read lots of Atomics's Sticky's and great advice the past few days. I have been addicted to this site. I was also on IG for a bit as I thought I would be TTC in Jan! Anyhow. That's that...Just wanted to say Hi over here! I'm dizzy from all the info!

I just finished a reply to you on your original post. Glad to see you.

That would be good news about the Okra if it wasn't totally gross!

I did the EW's since it has a higher PH and I've read, but don't think it's true, people insisting that preseed caused their m/c. Atomic recommends the preseed I believe and EW's are sort of old school. I've debated about it but for now gonna stick w/ EW's. I used EW's again for our attempt last night.

I just have to hope it picks up tomorrow. that s/b my 1st + opk this cycle and I best see some CM! Sounds like Robitussing and Mucinex both use the Guaffessian or whatever the heck it is so it shouldn't make a difference.

Iluv I think it's super that you guys go seek outside help for big issues like that! I think that has to make it easier to have a mediator. Re:the spotting it only worries me b/c it can be a sign of low progesterone, and that can make it hard to a) get pregnant and b) keep the baby if you do get pg. I never had spotting before this whole boy swaying thing.

Hi Tink! Welcome!

Babydes I love Okra! I wonder if that is true ... but even if it is I suppose my fried okra isn't what they are talking about

TTC5 for real, I can't believe we are nearly half-way thru 2011! Lola mentioned a beach vacay so perhaps she's off on that? Or working hard in preparation for time off?

Princess I don't think a bit of drinking will keep you from getting pg or ruin the work you did to sway. We can only do so much, KWIM? Good luck on your O day attempt!

[princessap]

thanks girls. I love how relaxed GD is compared to IG where I stressed about every little thing. Moon sign is male, full moon and chinese calendar all say boy. so fx for a
bfp!

[begonia]

ITA Princess! I like the feel here. So supportive!

That's awesome that all your signs are lined up for boy! Give you a little boost of confidence, doesn't it?!?

I started a prenatal today. Part of that is b/c I never took them before getting pregnant with my girls so I figure it is something different for me. Plus the ones I bought are delicious :-) And have no calcium! Crazy! I'm doing some full fat dairy so I'm not scared of calcium, but from what I remember reading no IG it was super hard to find no Ca prenatals.

FX for all our gals in the 2WW!

[cemas]
