Hi Ladies New Member Here :)

Im really tossing up weather to drop the calcium and magnesium or continue with it. I take 1250mg cal a day and i cant remember what my manesium is. Do more women get girls without taking it? Or is it another thing that there not sure it even sways?

Without a side by side study we cannot know. All the studies done so far, except one, have been no good because they are not studying cal-mag supplements alone, and the one study that was valid actully showed higher cal-mag intake in moms that went on to conceive boys. I think it is something everyone needs to decide for themselves. I got 4 boys with tons of dairy and 2 of them I was taking cal-mag supps so I droped it and got my girl without dairy or cal-mag supps, but you need to do waht you feel comfy with.

There is no scientific basis for this and it's just one of those things people say. http://genderdreaming.com/forum/sway...by-gender.html

Feelings don't predict gender and I wouldn't torture yourself with what ifs because we'l never know.

Ok so if we bd every 4 days what happens if for arguments sake we bd and then i get my positive say 1 or 2 days later do i bd again at my positive opk with the 1 to 2 day abstain or do i leave it at that 1 bd i orginally did (i really hope you are more fertile because i never fal preg with dam cut off!) Hahahaa

It is up to you, sticking with one attempt is better odds of pink, adding attempts may be bluer but better for conception.

What am i doing wrong i havent even hit 1200 calories yet which is my daily target im finding it hard to understand when to eat and how many times
Snacking not allowed so how do i get 1200 in calories without snacking and skipping breakfast

You can still have 3 meals or even 4 if you have to, you just push breakfast back. I always had 3, 11am or so, 4-5 pm, then again before bed. Got a girl with that. Both 2 and 3 meals are equally allowed, do what works for you. If you can't stick with 3, then up to 4, it's still really different than snacking all day every day

I cannot read the nutrient data well enough. The one thing that is sticking out to me in what I can see is that you can and should have fat - it looks like to me you are having all fat free products and you need 30 g minimum and can go all the way up to 60, so right there is a way to get a lot of cals without really changing much of anything.

Spongecake is allowed!

Thank you for all this awesome information ladies i really appreciate the time and effort!
Basically i was really enjoying iced cold peppermint tea lol sad to see it go now �� at first i was hating it lol i was having 600ml a day!
Anyway iv drop cal and mag and peppermint tea
Im on folic acid 1500
Cranberry 7500mg (half what i was taking)
Vitamin c 500mg a day
Anddddd thats it :/

Hubby is on LR still only because he is basically a weight lifter when it comes to his job day in day out also gets alot of cardio in, so i guess i can only hope it decreases testostrone A tiny bit, it keeps my thoughts calm.
Cal and mag
Olive leaf 3000mg (lowest we could get here but he takes it every 3rd day now)
Folic acid
Vitamin c

We will do one attempt at positive opk and say a prayer
Im usually a 24 hour later O person.
1200 calories aday my height and weight im classed as over weight

Is it ok that i drink two coffees before i eat breakfast/lunch in the afternoon or does that defeat the purpose of fasting in the morning?

Hubby wont and cant cut calories he becomes drained with anything less with his usuall Bajillion calories a day thanks to his energy output hahaha

[prettypinkprincessplease]

Oh and cardio! I start tonight again now because im getting all crampy and i think it may help with the bleeding aswell xx

[prettypinkprincessplease]

I will buy some more fat fulfilling products too easy! This is really just stuff i had left over in the cupboard todays shopping day yeee haaa hahahha

[maidentomother]

That looks great! The coffee is fine as long as it's very low in cals, I.e. not with cream and/or sugar, calorie free sweeteners and/or a little bit of lowcal creamer is fine. Black is ideal if you can tolerate it,
