Where did my CM go?!?!

[rachel86]

I JUST added grapefruit to my sway a few days ago actually and ummm I would say about a month ago I switched ..

TTCaPrince, I am in the same boat as you! I usually have a good amount of EWCM. This month, I've started practicing my sway, I changed diet, added boy friendly foods. Started drinking 1 liter of lemon water and 3 cups of orange juice. With that much, I thought I would see an increase in my EWCM, but this wasn't the case. I think it's noticeably less! Did the grapefruit juice help you?

AS, the only supplements I'm taking is Folic Acid and Potassium. I do put extra salt on things like French fries or baked potatoes but that's it. I don't think I go overboard with the salt.
Here is my boy diet:
Breakfast: Croissant, Orange Juice and a Banana
A little later: Lemon Water
Lunch: Rice, Red Meat and Lemon Water
Snack: A fruit like a Peach or an Apple or maybe some Raisins
A little later: Orange Juice
Dinner: Leftovers from lunch, a Baked potato and Lemon Water and a Banana
A little later: Orange Juice
Before Bed: fruits like peaches or apples or oranges
I consume 1 liter of lemon water a day (2 lemons)
About 3-4 cups of orange juice a day

I normally don't eat this much but I've read eating a lot is good for TTC a boy

I would cut back on the salt, just eat it to the level you normally do, no need for extra, and readd dairy/calcium to your diet, pref. in the form of full fat dairy. I know this is not "swaying canon" but we are having great results keeping dairy in the mix (and also eliminating it and getting girls without the dairy.)

You also need a multivitamin that contains some Vit. D

Re diet, you need to eat protein and carbs at every meal and snack if possible. The breakfast especially, is not so hot because there is little protein in that. Snacks of just fruit are not going to be enough, you need to add in some nuts or eggs or peanut butter or something.

I would also add in green or black tea a couple bags here and there, that can help with CM.
