Things that make me feel great about my sway:

My O came four days earlier than expected which meant that my diet and supp sway must have signaled my body to react differently. (A good sign that my sway is taking some effect? Hopefully 'pink' effect?)

Things that make me nervous about my sway:

That we did it on O day and not with a cutoff as originally planned and that my CM was not really dry, but more wet, though not EWCM. Also wish I had cut more calories from my meals.

Things worth mentioning:

I have been battling a lingering cough for a while, so that might mean my body is more acidic and therefore, swaying pink...hopefully? Although I am really wishing for a daughter, whatever the outcome, I pray for a healthy baby whom I'll love no matter what!

[oxox2013]

Sounds good to me! I hope you get your girl and congrats!

[belledandy]

Thanks oxox, I'm very nervous about this sway but just could not past a cycle up after being on the diet for a few weeks! Guess I am impatient...not a spring chicken anymore.

[oxox2013]

I hear ya! I probably should have waited a few more cycles myself but I was so excited and was ready to give it a go! My last cycle I didnt end up pregnant and felt devastated. I really hope this is our girl, but I am loving that fact that I am pregnant again and will be happy with a new little baby no matter the sex!

I have been on all supplements and diet for month now and am suppose to ovulate on the 4th any suggestions on whether to use rephresh or what I should do been reading a lot and I have four boys would love if I could get my girl this is my last one so I want to try everything I can but am happy with either sex

[belledandy]

How many cycles have you tried oxo? And congratulations on the BFP! Crossing my fingers for you for a pink LO! I'm still waiting on a BFP, 7DPO right now.

kbjtwb, I wish I could give you some suggestions but Atomic or the other moderators would probably help you better. There are a ton of threads with lots of good information, a bit overwhelming to navigate at first though. Also, since each woman's body is different, my only suggestion would be to try your best sway with rephresh and if no BFP after a few cycles (or however long you want to do it), drop the rephresh. I've read that for some women rephresh may raise pH which is more blue. A good idea would be to post your question on the main thread too so maybe one of the moderators could answer your q better. Good luck to you!
