♥ Swayer in waiting (waiting til late 2012 or early 2013, hopefully - currently pg w/ pink)
♥ TTC DC # 6
♥ I am going to basically continue my pregnancy diet while I am nursing the new baby (due in late May) since it's highly nourishing. I won't take out milk but I will focus on high protein and boy diet foods. I plan to start an exercise routine after my 6 week pp visit to help lose weight and then build muscle (and hopefully boost testosterone and keep weight level for when it's time to conceive). Routine is mostly bodyweight-based resistance training with some sprinting - no intense cardio. I will start boy supps when my cycles return after this baby is born - I am really hoping I get a year or so of no cycles with this baby. DH does not want to really TTC or TTA after this baby, so I want to be ready when conception occurs I feed DH so he will be on the boy diet. I will see how open he is to supps when my cycles resume. Mostly I am just cheering for other blue swayers right now

♥ Begonia (same from IG)
♥ A moving target if ever there was one ... probably this fall.
♥ TTC DC # 3
♥ Umm, had NO idea there was such good research re: running = girls! I was running 40+ per week prior to my girl pg's, so cut that out and do weights and resistance, with a bit of light cardio. Diet approach is pretty much what Atomic rec's with lots of food and variety of nutrients. Trying to limit sweets and soda which is what I used to live on. Supps I do fish oil, folic, zinc and ACV daily. AF to O will do either BSD or ASG.

♥ Tropicgal
♥ Swaying now ( well kind of....we started in Nov which resulted in a bfp straight away but unfortunately ended in a mmc and then after waiting one cycle we had a chemical) so onto April!!
♥ Approach is increasing meals and snacks (nuts, dried fruit and chips), inceasing salt and meat, drinking green tea, lemon water, v8 juice, orange juice daily, increasing weight training, taking pregnancy supps and extra folic acid, will take robitussan and ural before O.

♥ LauraInTexas (I was OohLaLaura at IG)
♥ Swaying since December 2010, TTC Boy
♥ TTC BOY, we have a 2 year old scrumptios girl already
♥ Basically everything possible....all the supplements, eating the boy foods diet, upping sodium and potassium, cutting out as much dairy, magnesium, and calcium as possible. No cardio, weight lifting. We're also doing one of the high tech at home methods---MSU. Our attempts are going well...seeing lots of sperm and almost all XY after sorting. I'm older---35, so it may not be helping to limit sperm availability overall

Blah just had to come and have a complain- it is sooo not fair!!! I tested my DH's PH last night and it is a 9.......am I happy well yes thats great.................................
but NO I am also sooooooooooooooo annoyed why can he eat chocolate cake and coffee and TONS of sugar and do NOTHING and here I am eating no sugar changing my whole diet drinking lemon water and ASG/ ural and mine is back to a 5!!!! And yes I know I have been sick and that might be why it has gone down again but it was still only up to a 6 before AND I am day 13 so about to ovulate !!!!!!!!



Now off to go break something...............

[3Pink1Blue]

Cheeky- My dh is naturally 8+ and I am naturally 4.5. I can only get to mid 5. I've done everything to raise it, EVERYTHING! It simply will not go up but I have crazy good ewcm and signs of raised testosterone. I've adopted a very zen approach, change what you can and stop stressing about what you can't.

Frustrating hey!

[Tink18]

What kinds of diets do your DH's have? I want to test my DH's so bad! Im going to do it soon. What did you all test it in, i anything?

[TTC5]

Hubby eats almost same as me, he has dairy though (I am allergic to dairy).

[Tink18]

I have the type of husband that is good at everything, it's so annoying. So he will probably have a 9 just because. We went ice skating together a few years back. I said you ever done this before? He says "nope" put the ice skates on and gets on the damn ice like brian boitano. I could punch him sometimes.
