Blue Swayers daily chat thread!!!

[business.woman]

I'm pretty sure atomic has said the sodium isn't super necessary. I mean, at its core, if we're doing HE that's not a "mineral" diet that's been more debunked. I've definitely incorporated more sodium, too, but I also was practically phobic about it when I conceived my DD, so I thought if anything it could help me anyway (since I often have low BP, especially postpartum and during pregnancy).

I know we're supposed to "eat smarter, not harder," but I'm getting in that place too. Even though TTC boy while breastfeeding used to be okay, now atomic seems pretty against it for TTC boy, or just postpartum in general.

Since I got super oopsy pregnant at 3 months pp, I feel like I don't want to be caught out again and would rather just try -- especially since that loss really made me want my future boy even more. I'm just saddened -- I feel some blue swayers were not even a year out but their sways are supported, but others are almost chastised for wanting to try again soon This isn't going to go away for me, especially post-loss.

It's hard to resist going back to eating less. I've honestly thought, "I have to get pregnant or I'll just go back to starving"... and even thought, "I can't wait until I'm pregnant and can just be nauseated and not eat for a few months." :|

I know that wasn't good for the health but I was obsessed!


Im sorry for your loss, now you are in a new journey to have your dream boy
Enjoy it , you will have him and this beautiful journey will be a memory !

Hi all! I have been following this thread for a few weeks now and it has been really helpful. I posted a few days ago looking for opinions and haven't had any responses. Wondering if maybe I posted it in the wrong category and should have posted it here? Not really sure. Learning! TTC Boy, Breastfeeding & dairy free diet, thoughts?

Hello and welcome! If you have questions, just post under the general swaying forum. This thread is a daily chit chat thread and admin don't usually post here

Good Morning!

I decided to add grapefruit juice. I'm totally not a juice person so this is difficult, the thought of all the sugar going in my body is driving me nuts. I'll be drinking 2-3 cups per day until O. Hopefully it helps with EWCM. Started Robitussin on the last day of AF also. We'll see what happens!

I also added actual milk to my diet 2 weeks ago and I have one cup per day in the form of hot cocoa lol. That's a big change for me. I'm SO done with all the food! I better score this month, God willing.

How is everyone doing?

The juice comes with sugar added, although it isn't much, grapefruit is a fruit and has natural sugar. Also, almost all juice has added sugar unless it is squeezed right in front of you like at a juice bar or something. I just don't usually eat any fruit either lol, so for my body its been a long time.

Why do you feel your sway isn't going so well?

[business.woman]

Ooh , why don't eat it then instead of the juice?

I'm not happy with my sway because I'm drinking tea with sugar in it and eating lots of chocolates and cookies and Ice cream !! Lots of sugar intake !!

I cut back sugar when I conceived DS !
And I was crazy about sugar when I conceived DD !

But everything else is good ,
Only 4 weeks left for me, I should start being good LoL

Organic grapefruit isn't easy to get here, plus the juice is alot more than eating the fruit. Like a cup of grapefruit juice is 2-4 grapefruits and I don't really like grapefruit haha.

Why don't you try some keto recipes for your sweets? I know it isn't exactly the same but for 4 weeks, it will do. You can pretty much get any sweet recipe and substitute it with a keto, like cookies and ice cream. Plus, if you do it this way, you'd be getting alot more nutrients, which are boy friendly. What kind of cookies do you like?

Hey ladies, I drank a cup of grapefruit juice every day before conceiving DD to help make more EWCM because of the clomid I was on. It definitely helped but I've noticed now since not being on clomid and changing my diet to HE, I'm getting lots more EWCM. I'm starting to think I will wait another couple of months before TTC my boy. Atomic suggests longer between babies to get a boy so your fertility has completely returned. I don't know I'm in two mindsets really. Also what is keto?

[cosmosis]

Keto: The ketogenic diet (often termed keto) is a very low-carb, high-fat diet that shares many similarities with the Atkins and low-carb diets. It involves drastically reducing carbohydrate intake, and replacing it with fat. The reduction in carbs puts your body into a metabolic state called ketosis.

I'm not suggesting anyone here to get on a keto diet, I was just suggesting to business woman that keto desserts may take care of her sweet tooth and make her feel better about her sway because keto desserts are high in fat and nutrients and low in sugar

I produce very little cm because I've had some hormonal imbalances this year due to dieting, high stress and insomnia. I'm doing much better now, but my ewcm has not returned Last year, I used to produce tons. I tried Robitussin last cycle and it didn't help very much, so I'm hoping grapefruit juice helps. How long did you take it for dancingdiva?
