Hi ladies,

Just stopping in to check on everyone, as I went on something of a hiatus from the site between my bfp and my gender scan (it was important to me that I not fixate).

Lassie, Suregena and Cinns ... so happy for you!! Hurray on bfps!!
Kraizy, H&D and Prayforprincess ... I'm sorry you're still on this journey. It took me twice as long to get pg while swaying as when I conceived both of my boys. Here's how I see swaying pink ... it's harder in the sense that the lifestyle is so tricky (the hunger, the limited food choices, the potions and supps and whatnot), plus it all contributes to making it harder to get pg at all ... however, unless stats have changed in just the past few months, it seems like the LE diet has greater statistical success in leading to baby girls than the HE diet does for getting women their baby boys. Not that I don't believe in the HE diet. It's just I figure that a "weaker" condition sets the stage for female babies, whereas a stronger, healthier condition seems like it would benefit both boy and girl babies.

So, you're dealing with a harder sway, but with greater potential rewards (just my two cents' though!!!).

Based on a couple of questions I saw earlier on this thread, a couple anecdotals:
*For what it's worth, I -- like Atomic -- actually dropped Vitex the month before getting pg, after having taken it for six months, as I think it was preventing conception.
*What I did with RepHresh was to use it about an hour *after* each night's attempt. That way it was never closer than about 23 hours to an attempt, so that I hopefully wasn't killing off too many sperm. For my successful cycle, we DTD on cycle days 11 through 16 and I used a full tube of RepHresh on CD 11 and a half tube on CD 14. I had also dropped Sylk and Zyrtec this cycle (and used non-sperm-friendly saliva as lube).

Huuuuuuuge amounts of pink dust and prayer for you ladies.

I am 6-7 DPO, not noticing too may signs, but I do know its still too soon! But a couple signs has me questioning and TMI - I have become overly regular in the mornings whereas I wasn't really going to the bathroom, lower abdominal cramping and actually woke up at 5 this morning because I had to pee which I never do.

Anyone else early signs??

Ooh fx'ed for you too! I think a couple months back I had a chemical pregnancy, and one of the major signs was sore boobs - I even began to leak! I never ever have sore boobs with AF nor leaking. This month boobs are fine just these other symptoms. We shall see To test is going to seem like forever...
