I love the idea of unhealthy with lots of yummy sweets

!! My problem is that I am a total carnivore

and I live in Japan (only for a few more months) and I

sushi. I am used to not eating breakfast so that's not going to be too tough but Im struggling with giving up my morning moccachino which is a no no on a couple of levels. best of luck with your visit and hoping tonight is a success!!

Welcome Pinkdreams!

So I had my attempt on the weekend and O'ed last night. So glad its over because we've Bding every day for 14 days straight!!! I am so tired of it its unbelieveable but my DH sure did enjoy it! I'm excited but nervous at the same time. I was NOT good on the diet at all. I tried my hardest to eat minimal amounts of chicken but I was not cutting calories. I didn't gain but def. didn't lose ( I have lost 50lbs in the past year and half since conceiving my DS so sick of dieting!)

We BD up unitl O (8 hour cut off!), I used sylk, and benadry the week leading up (I actually had a sinus infection/cold so I used it for two reasons I guess). I kept up with the asprin and folic acid but my rephresh arrive yesterday (great..sigh) so didn't use it as part of my sway. I guess I'm hoping that frequent BD, sylk, apsrin, and the antihistamins were on my side. I so hope that I am pregnant this round cause I do not want to do that diet again.

Thats about it. I'm officially in the 2ww so I'll just have to wait and see. Thanks for listening ladies!

Hey mandicane - I just got my +OPK and I think I'm going to O tomorrow, so we're on almost the same cycle! I hear ya about getting sick of frequent BD - this month we've only dtd a few times, but I've been (ahem) helping him release every night for a week and a half, and I'm getting really sick of it. Even DH seems not to be in the mood anymore, which is huge for him since he's normally such a horndog - it shows we've been TTC too long already!

haha...thats too funny. Glad to hear we r in the same boat. Good luck to you!! Pink dust for both of us and FX!

pinkdreams I thought you were japanese and that it was so cool you´d find the site! By the way, did you also used to skip breakfast when you conceived your boys?

I hear you too mandicane and mocha about being fed up of BD, and ours isn´t even frequent! SP is really a libido-killer for me.
I have totally dried up, so I think tonight will be too late for an attempt, we´ll try anyway and I still have the 3 day cut-off from Friday. But it´s okay, this month just doesn´t feel right, but I´m doing much better now and positive about planning how to continue from here! Good luck both, I will stalk the two of you in the 2WW..

Guess I'm another one on the same cycle. Offically in the TWW now. Ended up with about a 1 1/2 day cut off- DTD last on Friday night, the DH got sick Saturday night and was all day Sunday too, so no Bding... +OPK was Sat afternoon, so I think I O'd Sunday AM, early, based on that, plus CP & CM. FXed... now the wait.

I am actually american, my DH is in the military and we have been stationed here for the past 3.8 years. We are set to return to the U.S. in the beginning of the year and I can't wait!!! I'm pretty sure I was eating breakfast on most days while trying to get pregnant before because I wasn't swaying and wanted to be "healthy" I was planning on trying to sway for #2 but didn't research very much at all and was basing it all on my limited hearsay knowledge of Shettles. Didn't know of the diet or supps etc... and at the time DS2 was conceived I was "caught up in the moment" and remember saying to DH "damn, that just made a boy"

**Mochagirl** · August 16th, 2011, 07:05 AM

pinkdreams - I'm the same way - I'm not a breakfast eater in general, but in the past I purposely ate breakfast while TTC in an attempt to be more healthy. I think maybe I avoided cereal with ds3 because that's around the time that breakfast study first came out, and I think I misunderstood it to mean just that eating cereal made more boys.

Hi, I'm new. I have been on another board regarding this topic but the board seems very quite. I'm hoping for answers on how to pinpoint Ovulation so I can do an 0+12. I have two boys and really want a little girl.
