LOL at the inlaws and their jealousy, I am so happy for you hehehehe as bad as that sounds lol! :P

Jen, so eggs and bacon at brekkie hey? I might try that on the days I do not work

Would you have eggs daily?

Also, did you drink lemon water?

I take green tea tablets do you think they work the same as drinking the tea?

How long were you eating this way for again, sorry I can not remember and sorry for racking your brain but you are my inspiration and HOPE

Yep whole eggs and bacon every day. With my first sway I did the lemon water and the bsd. When I quit the drinks I got horrible heartburn that took months to go away, it hung out even past the m/c so this time around I stuck to the green tea. I put a little honey and some lemon juice in it and yum! I did the ig diet till Feb and then embraced Atomics eat it all theory, so I did it for a solid 3 months before I got my bfp. Seriously ask all the questions you want, I'm glad to help

I will prob start URAL but only the month of attempt. I drink lemon water at least 2litre a day and I actually like it lol

And what about gelatine, did you drink that?

**3Pink1Blue** · September 25th, 2011, 01:23 AM

I liked the lemon water but the heartburn lingered for months. As far as the gelatin I mixed it with juice to make it jello for a few months (Jan- April) but then I quit. I did not do it the month prior to conception.

I'm so excited for you to find out and glad to know you'll have that peace of mind. What time did you set the scan for?

Looking at my daughter's baby books make me so much better too. They were so cute!!! I think that's really smart and I might steal your idea and bring some to my big U/S too. Smart lady!

Was it because of the taste that you stopped? I wonder how important it really is especially because you stopped and look! You got a boy still?!

ummm I buyed test today and if no af tomorrow I will test...not sure how I feel about it.

I don't believe in psychics and I wouldn't think twice about it.

I haven't read ahead yet if you answered this but are you scared if it's negative then that's it? I'm not sure how exactly you are feeling but I've been where you are and it was really tough for me and we ended up in counseling about it the 2nd time he told me no more. Please pm me or let it all out to the group Flava.

I ate lots of meat, fruit, veg and I avoided all processed foods. To be specific I ate big breakfasts with eggs and bacon, lots of snacks and meat and potatoes for dinner. I could never get my pH above 5-5.5 so I gave up. I honestly think I'd have had a nervous breakdown and DH would have called it all off if I'd stayed on IG. No pre-seed or egg white, fish oil and green tea gave me tons of cm so we just went with that

fwiw my nephew was conceived in Christmas and born in September, I say ignore the psychic and chow down lol

Flava- Thanks, I think my sway was great too! I am a little biased since it worked or maybe I just got lucky, either way who cares lol FX for tomorrow!

Skrimpy- thanks, it was a pretty great day

Well we told the in-laws, bil's gf left the room while my bil shrunk. My other bil and sil weren't there even though they were supposed to be so I called sil and she was like "oh cool, well congrats" and my bil being a jerk to DH on facebook which means he's upset by it. My mil asked if it is another girl when dh said it was a boy she said "oh good", fil of course wants us to name him after someone in their family. He'll be none to pleased to learn we plan to use my dad's name (Robert) for the middle name but dh doesn't care. All in all it was pretty uneventful actually, I've gotten more reactions from you guys lol

Augh! My little laptop deleted my reply. Let's try again.

TTC5 - Not to make you feel bad in any way, but I think it's dangerous to talk to "psycics" and this is part of the reason. I'm sure she's a nice person but if you are meant to have a boy you will regardless of the date.

3PNB -Was it your family who has the BIL and his GF who are prego again but have no money? Of all the self absorbed immature bullcrap. That is so wrong. My brother and his wife have been ttc for years now and he has never said 1 unkind word or self comment (although my sisters and I feel so horrible telling him we are prego again). this makes me angry. I put up w/ so much crap that made my last pregnancy miserable and I just think people can be cruel even if they don't mean it.

My 2 cents on the name issue w/ your FIL is: I don't give a crap what your family name traditions are. This is my child and I will name him whatever my DH and I see fit. Your traditions are not my burden. Now if it's important to DH then that's a different story. I really could care less about that stuff and broke a small tradition w/ my 1st. I would name him your father's full name just to be a brat.

Hmmm, think I'm a little tired tonight. I'm a bit high strung but that's really how I fee about it. Shame on the family. It's sad that you can get more support from essential strangers then family.

I had an omlet and bacon most mornings too w/ tomatoes, cheese, and avocado. Mmmm! My 2 cents again. I believe the free range organic chickens are best if you can get them and choline found in uncooked egg yolks is wonderful for pregnancy and has lots of benefits like babies brain development. I ordered this holistic pregnancy program and 1 of the meals is a bannana egg yolk smoothie.
