    Do not do RRLT as it may sway blue. I have no idea how a blue sway tactic wormed its way into our statistics (I don't do the stats and blue eyed guys simply inherited it all from another person) and I'd love to see it gone as I get questions on it constantly.

    The ONLY people who have ever done RRLT for a pink sway were people who'd gone on swaying a LONG time and had not gotten pregnant. Honestly, it's a last ditch thing that I try sometimes when people aren't conceiving. So those stats are completely misleading since people who have not gotten pregnant for a long time tend to have more girls anyway.

    We have tracked peppermint tea separately and know it's not really working, but at least it's supposed to sway pink. Stay away from RRLT unless I personally have approved it for you.

    Looking at the diet stats- I would like to start trying at 9 weeks after starting the diet. Should I wait until 12 weeks? How much of a difference does it make?

    12 weeks is more effective (and this has stayed so consistent since the early days of the site I believe it to be a real finding and not a fluke) BUT the thing is, many people start off doing a pretty intense sway in terms of cutting odds of conception, that I generally LIKE people to start TTC early (6-10 weeks) and then most of the time you won't get pregnant that first month or even two. We have average 3 months to conception.

    What I DON"T want people to do is think "well if 12 weeks is good, 20 is even better" then diet strictly for 20 weeks, then sway super strictly for another 20 weeks, and come to me in a year and have not gotten pregnant and weigh 90 lbs and their hair is falling out. DON"T do that. I would far rather see you guys start off a smidge sooner than 12 weeks and enjoy doing whatever sway tactics you want to do that first month or two (since most people do want to feel they've tried everything) and then by the time you're ready to start dropping the stuff that doesn't really work (like timing, jellies, antihistamine, frequency, etc) then you've had enough time on diet anyway.

    Now all this having been said, if you're NOT doing a strict sway with all that other stuff, then in that case you may want to wait the full 12 weeks. But anyone who is, makes more sense to start off sooner rather than later.

    Thank you so much for your response, Atomic! I have been doing a strict LE diet/Weight Watchers for a week. I am adding coffee starting today. I have been exercising 2-3 times a week and now I'm going to up it to 4-6 times a week. We BD in November and December and didn't get pregnant with one attempt and diet and lots of cardio so I'm thinking we should try in July with one attempt and go to every 4 days in August. July will be 9 weeks with diet and 8 weeks with exercise. Do you think that's ok?

    What else are you doing in terms of things that cut odds of conception? (timing, frequency, jelly or douching, antihistamine, jump and dump)

    What is your age and how important is it that you get pregnant very soon?

    I'm 29 and I would like get pregnant by November at the latest. But the thought of being on the diet that long... [emoji51] And I don't know how long I can keep up this workout routine. It's a lot of work for me and really hard. But I don't want to greatly reduce the chances of my sway working either.

    When we tried in November and December we did one attempt and J&D. I think I had him do abstain.

    When I got pregnant with DD 6 years ago I was dieting and exercising for 6 weeks before conception. Then no exercise and eating all the time and vitamins when I got pregnant with boys. One attempt with all 3 kids. So I was surprised we didn't get pregnant in November and December.

    Maybe I could do one attempt and J&D in July and every 4 days in August without J&D?

    Go ahead and try in July.

    ARe you doing immediate J and D or after 5 minutes? If immediate, go to 5 minutes.

    It's up to you about one attempt vs. e4d. E4D will be better odds of conception.

    Awesome! I was doing immediate so I'll go to 5 min.

    Also I want to mention I had lost 22 lbs last year June-December then this year gained 9 lbs between December and March/April and then I maintained until starting the diet again at the end of May. I did some weights in April but kept up with cardio 1-3 times a week that whole time. So 3 weeks before I started the diet last week I was maintaining weight and not eating great but not a ton either.

    Just a heads up, Claypot had added her data to the spreadsheet after having been told boy, but then a subsequent ultrasound revealed she was actually having a girl!
