    Any input on my sway for late April?

    I'm trying to do everything opposite of what my boy lifestyle has been. I'm Eating an acidic diet now. Not adding salt to anything(I love salt) and avoiding all the salty snacks I used to eat (salted nuts, chips, saltines pretzels). Limiting all my fruits and veggies ( i used to eat tons of that stuff) no potatoes, bananas, tomatoes and red sauces, I'm eating white breads and the like (i used to only eat grainy brown breads). Increasing fish and chicken for my protein, I'm also beginning to have drinks with fake sugars (I never drank that stuff, I stay away from anything that has color or artificial stuff so this is big for me).
    I'm thin to begin with, but I'm planning on losing 5 pounds in the next few weeks by upping my cardio and basically starving myself. Oh and I've really increased calcium supps and just dairy in general. I've posted before I never would eat dairy. I gag at the thought of drinking milk so again, this is a big opposite from my past eating habits.

    Here's my question, I pretty much have a 28 day cycle and i O on CD13-15. Does this sway blue? I'm so scared to try these hormonal supps cause my cycles are so perfect. Should I risk it.
    I also douche and keep my pH low, take cranberry, calcium, mag, folic acid, Dh agreed to start cranberry and licorice root.

    I use everything lavender, wear amethyst necklace always, hot showers, and my timing is TBD. I'm going for frequent release as dH is 44 and I'm 35 so we are a bit older don't want those old spermies!
    Any input, I'm leaving a ton out I'm sure but this is all I can remember. Oh, will O in late April, chinese gender chart was right on all three DS so April says girl for me
    Please give me your two cents!!!! Thanks

    I think overall it sounds very good. How long have you been on the diet? My last sway in oct 09 (failed ds #4) even thought the diet was a TOTAL change for me I was only on it for 3-4 weeks which I think hurt me. I too was afraid of the hormone supps due to my perfect 28 day cycle so I did not take them (changing that now). I also did freq bd though O, changing that this time. So really the only advice I can give since I have only swayed once and failed (swaying again now hoping for may attempt) is what I did the first time that did not work! LOL I also did not douches last time and I am going to to that time time.

    Thanks,
    So you are taking vitex for O? Did you lose weight with your other sway? I tend to always be around the same weight, so this time around if I lose the 5lbs I'm going for will be a drastic change as I am already about 7 pounds under what I was when I conceived my boys. I've been on supps since late jan., I ws on the IG diet in feb but decided to change it to just an acidic diet as the IG diet was confusing....many of the OK items are actually very alkaline. I forgot to mention the other ion stuff I use too, like the hairdryer I bought and we have two huge aquariums in our house, one is fresh water, one is saltwater. With our boys we didn't know about swaying so we just abstained for about 3-5 days then DTD with a +opk so if we BD frequently this will be a big change too. thanks for your input! If there is anything else you think I should do, please let me know!!!

    I did lose weight with my other sway but not alot, I normally sit 116 or so and I got down to 109 or so on diet. I am right at 115 now so I will probably lose some in the next 6 weeks, I don;t need to though so I always look nasty too skinny! LOL
    I do not need to take vitex to O I am only taking it cause it is supposed to sway pink and praying it does not mess up my cycles too much. I have april to test it out completely, I am not doing my attempt until mid may.
    Freq for you is probably good since that is opposite of what you did. I need abstain cause that is opposite for me. I do know though that abstain 3-5 days sways boys, you need to abstain for 7+ days for girls, I plan on 14 to be safe!

    A perfect cycle does NOT sway blue or pink. Neither does a long cycle or a short cycle. It just "is what it is" LOL. Changes in your cycle length ~can~ indicate changes in your hormone levels so if you always ahve a regular cycle and you go onto hormonal supps and your cycle gets longer, don't despair because that may very well mean that the supps are working for you.

    In terms of your diet it is def. looking good, but do be wary about eating too much protein (aim for 40 g of protein a day or less). Keep in mind there is protein in dairy in addition to the chicken and fish. The weight loss is a great idea and make sure you do a LOT of cardio, like an hour a day 6 or 7 days a week. Also watch the sodium because there is more sodium than you might think in dairy foods.

    Fruits and veg are ok as long as they are light-colored and low nutrient, like cucumbers or apples with skin cut off.

    You may want to add a fiber supplement to keep the nutrients moving out of your digestive tract (and because the girl diet is very constipating.)

    April is a good girl month in my book too so I think you should pull out all the stops for this month!

    Yep abstaining for 3-5 days and then DTD at +OPK is like a recipe for maximum sperm count! IT's great for getting pregnant but does lead to more boys. Just changing this one thing can really help your sway a lot, either by BD frequently or abstaining for longer. GL!!!

    Yes! before I knew about swaying, we did everything just to get pregnant and each time I got preg on the first or second try! LOL! He does have super swimmers and that may also explain all the boys

    Have you check any other charts like Jonas/Lunar or Biorhythmic? Are you going to try a girl month or moon?
