ttc thread - swaying again in 2017 :)

[4blue2pink]

so excited for you both Amelia and BB!! loving the funny bd stories haha the realities of ttc when youve got other kids hey!!

quick update from me ive switched my diet from full on IF to LE style with 2 meals rather than one because i was really struggling to eat all my food in one go!! ive never been a big meal eater just a pick at small bits of food all day long type person so breaking it into 2 is suiting me better oh and i dropped alcohol and coffee..still debating weather to add them back in or not.. my last sway was successful without them and im really not a fan especially of coffee!! i can do 1-2 alcoholic drinks ok but the 3-4 cups of coffee is too much and i was only managing 2 cups most days, right now my sway is basically identical to last time, which worked so im not sure if i wanna start messing around with it..

AF is here at the moment and im also ill *ugh* haha but illness does sway pink my second daughter is living proof of that!! so i'll take it as a positive!!

how is everyone else getting on? and hi babybells have you started your sway yet or are you still planning? 6 months will soon come round!! xx

Sounds good 4blue u gotta do what u gotta do to make it through the day this seems more sensible - I was bad last night and had a papa johns ! Whoops ! Got carried away after too many wines so we ordered a pizza !
It's my mums party tonight (we're hosting!) so il try reign it in today as we're attempting again tonight - I just checked and my opk is nearly positive wahoo!!!
So looks like tonight will be a good time to dtd (cd17)

I've had ewcm the last two days so just taken antihistamine to help with that - hoping tonight's the one to catch the egg!

I'm also full of a cold at the moment with a sore throats so hoping that's helping my sway too! Xx

What are you eating for your 2 meals? I usually have peanut butter toast around 11am then nothing else until dinner around 4.30/5pm. Tonight it's chilli with Quorn, we're mostly veggie but prob eat chicken or fish 1-2 times per week. Xx

I love chilli !
Last night we had an Indian take away I had chicken as the veggie currys are too sickly - so had tandoori style with rice and naan with a little sauce before my attempt last night hoping it didn't too any damage !

Today I'm going to have a veggie burger in a bun with salad and coleslaw - have to keep up the diet until testing in 10 days time !
Off for a 60 minute walk in the woods with my family on this frosty Sunday morning

Ah, I miss the frost! There's something magical about it...

Love Indian takeaway too! How many attempts did you go for this month?

i eat something small at dinnertime around 11.30-12 like half a cheese and lettice sandwich or today it was a small bit of this tomato quiche thing i did for the kids.
then tea time is around 5-6pm and i have whatever ive cooked for everyone, but just generally avoid the meat, so tonight i did a tray bake (potato, red onion, diced turkey and green beans with some feta cheese thrown in at the end) i also (rather oddly) did garlic bread because it needed using!! so i had the tray bake with only a tiny bit of turkey and some of the garlic bread.
like you i am mainly veggie but will have a small bit of white meat here and there like i did tonight-i did the same thing last time.

so exciting BB frosty walk sounds lovely, your right MrsT there is something magical about frost xx

That sounds lovely 4blue ! Love an easy tray bake dinner too !

Just two attempts so far and I had a dark line (not s true positive ) last night on my opk so we did it last night as the 4th day so will do it again Wednesday just to be sure . It's a shame it fell on such a bad weekend of birthdays where I prob have gone over a bit with pizza , bit of takeaway and choc cake especially as when I was making the cake I ate some of the cake mix !!! So bad! It's hard both kids had there hands in there so I had some too it's fun with your kids to do stuff like that I find it hard to change the little things.
Anyway onwards and upwards I'm not very optimistic about it working this month anyway so it be better from
Now on!
