Questions....

I'm thinking I do want to take the soy. Not just for the ewcm, but because I would really like to have twins! I've always dreamed about it and think I'd carry them well. What do you think would be a good dosage for that? My very first pregnancy was a miscarriage, but my other two were normal. I'm scared to start it on CD 2. What does the soy actually do to your follicles during that time?

AAAAAAGGGH NO!!! NOT 6 TEASPOONS!!! It is 6 HALF teaspoons.

PS - I totally agree about the natural CM - that is the good stuff!!

Zivic - I need to update the lubes essay because there are a couple more boy-friendly lubes that just came onto the market...bear with me!!!

Oh really? Bettern than pre seed?

A suggestion to help with your salt intake ... measure out a teaspoon of salt into a small dish and use it throughout the day on things. A teaspoon is 2400 mg sodium, so depending on what you're getting through other parts of your diet, you might want to do another 1/2 tsp.

It took 3 cycles of EPO for me to see a difference. I also do 1000 fish oil a day. The other thing that helps me, I think, is drinking A TON more water during AF to O, also 2 tea bags of green tea, and fresh grapefruit juice. I did all of that for the past 3 cycles and the last one was my best CM yet, though still not what I would say was a ton. I'm going to try robitussin for the 1st time this cycle to see how that goes. OH I also am adding L'arginine in so we'll see how that goes. I think trial and error is the only way to find what works for you since every body will process things differently.

FWIW I did try soy one cycle and saw no difference ... and I was kinda freaked out by what I read about it so dropped it. I think soy is fine in dietary moderation but the high amounts in supplement form just didn't feel right for me. To each her own though, so if you're curious give it a try ... I know some women swear by it for CM.

A tsp, is that all we need? I have been having way more than that haha does this mean I should cut back?

Not better, just ones that will also work. People can't always find things so I want to have ALL the lubes discussed in the one thread so all the q's are answered!!

The French Gender Diet has "as much salt as you can" listed, but on IG the total salt is 5000-6000 mg. I would rather you go with the IG numbers for health purposes. A teaspoon has 2400mg so that is about half what you should be getting - be sure to take into account the amount of sodium you're getting in BSD too!

Thank you Atomic! Do you really think I should go with 200mg? That seems a bit high to me.

[atomic sagebrush]

That's what the directions say to do but you can always try less if you're ok with it. I haven't tried it personally so I can't say whether or not there are side effects.

[Alexis2007]

So for the fish oil, I take one pill once per day? My bottle says a serving size is one pill, but to take one pill 3x per day? I'm confused lol. And do I take this everyday or just AF-O? Thanks girls!!

You take one pill per day- 1000 mg. And I never had EWCM with ttc DD, but now have floods and floods and NOT taking EPO. It will change your cycle and this will make timing and abstinence almost impossible to predict!
