April/May/June 14 swayers...

[Rosie85]

I would plead for April!! Otherwise vacationing can sway because it is relaxing but the diet thing would put a damper on your trip!

I am taking fiber and folic acid. I will also do an antihistamine before ttc. My biggest sway tactic however will be my exercise!

Dh is taking olive leaf and will take licorice root as well the 14 days before ttc.

Thanks for the information! We are going to start TTC in April!

Hello ladies,
My husband and I are planning for May. I am sure getting antsy though. So maybe it will be April. I am excited I found this thread with all of you ladies in the same time frame as me. I did have a question about the Olive Leaf. How much does your husband take per day?

Welcome O!

I am getting antsy too but I know for sure I don't want a baby in the month of november or december so waiting it shall be!

My Dh takes the recommended amount on the bottle for the OLE, each one is different due to the fact that they can use different concentrations.

Good luck with your sway and nice to have you join us!

Hello ladies,
Hope everyone is doing well as we prep for our sways.
I have had a bit of an emotional week with just feeling low. Probably related to Pms. Anyway I'm feeling better now and I decided I need help with my sway so I splurged and ordered a sway plan. Can't wait for Atomic to finish it. I am just the kind of person that gets to stressed about the details so I figured I would do better with a plan. I can't wait like you ladies but I need at least 4 months on the LE diet so my DH and I decided we'd try in May

Hi there, hoping to ttc in June. Have 2 little boys already and would love a little girl as I have no sisters and am very close to my mum. Hubby on board so that great. Have kinda of started LE diet. Wont exercise as I did when I had my boys. Think I will try for a cut-off attempt. So much info on this site it can get very confusing!!

Hi Momo, your right all of the info can get confusing. They say diet seems to be the most important sway factor so it's great you have already started doing that. I am going to try to exercise this time because I wasn't exercising at all with both my boys.

I'm also a bit confused on the frequency aspect. When we conceived our son, we weren't trying, so I don't know what worked for us that time! I was on the pill though. So this time is a lot more stressful trying to plan it. I'm 31 and DH and 34. Would you recommend abstain or fr? Without ttc, we average about two times a week.

Dreaming, I saw written that abstaining isn't recommended for men over 35 so your Dh is close to that cut-off. Atomic would better be able to say.


I am about 2 months out now from our first attempt. 1 more month until I become more strict on everything I am doing. I am seriously hating this diet, I am sick of tracking what I eat and I have come to find out that the only way I was meeting normal calories and protein before the diet was if I ate out so now that I don't do that I have been hard pressed to even come up with 1200 calories a day. I feel like I eat sooo much during each meal and I hate it.

My ovulation kit comes today so I can start doing those to get an idea of my cycles and also my walk it off dvd will come! I can't wait to get started on it.

How many of you are starting the diet already? If we don't want to TTC til June at the earliest... just curious. My purchased plan says 6 weeks out but seems like lots of you are starting earlier? I'm DREADING this diet because it's not a lot of what I normally eat and I know i'm going to feel starving all the time!
