    Which fish oil and probiotics are you taking

    Okay, I saw EBF and I thought you meant you were still breastfeeding exclusively as in no solids just breast milk, but I understand now.

    I am taking Nature made fish oil, Earth Pearl probiotics and Extra folate.

    When do you plan to ttc?

    Good luck with your blue sway

    Well she is on 3 meals but night time feeds a lot I think it’s more comfort sucking to be honest.

    We are BD unprotected every 2/3 days but I don’t have my periods back yet since birth so not even sure I ovulate I tried the OPk but the test line never gets any darker so not sure really it’s like
    Shooting blind.
    What about you? Anything else you using alongside the supplements. I am also using pressed apparently it favours boys more.

    Lots of blue baby dust our way for our final baby

    Sorry but those fish oils aren't going to work. We have seen a lot of opposites with evening primrose oil and that's much too high a dose.

    I would prefer to see you take no more than 500 mg fish oil tops and NO evening primrose or other Omega 6 fatty acids, including flaxseed (which is dangerous even during pregnancy, please avoid flaxseed oil everyone, and keep flaxseed itself to dietary amounts no more than 2-3 times per week...this means no flaxseed smoothies!)

    Update: Site member "the final countdown" just pointed something out about this thread that I thought was super interesting. What if part of the reason that moms with all girls try sooner is because older girls are more helpful, freeing up moms from some of the housework and baby chores? While this doesn't explain every person trying soon after having a baby (because some of you lovely ladies have 3-4-5 very small girls!) I have seen quite a few women on here who have many girls, some who are 8+ and I do wonder if it may play some part for them. I have certainly noticed that my daughter, who's 9 1/2, is SUPER helpful with chores and also does a better job of them then the boys do (even at times her adult brothers, le sigh). Beyond that, she's also very thoughtful and considerate of my feelings, noticing things like when I'm overwhelmed, exhausted, not feeling well and so on and steps up to do little things that otherwise I'd have to do.

    I'm not saying (AT ALL) that my boys don't do chores, aren't helpful, considerate, etc etc etc but I'm simply saying that there is definitely more of a voluntary, even eager effort in this regard from my daughter. I recall I was also very into helping my mom with my (much younger) siblings when I was growing up, doing more chores than all my boys combined have ever done, without being asked, in addition to doing lots of kid-related tasks too.

    Again, can't say as I think this explains all of the difference, but maybe some of it, especially for people who have older girls!

    I obviously only have girls so can't compare to how sons would behave/help- and while I am eager to have another baby, in reality, I am still exhausted and still not getting solid sleep so not keen TTC yet.
    That said, with my 1st two - even though they were little at not quite 3 and 1.5 (and demanding! though #2 slept really well compared to #1 and was STTN before we TTC for #3), I had massive baby fever!
    #4 was an oops, and #3 was over 2 when I fell pregnant but would have happily waited an extra 6-12 months ttc had little Miss not decided to sneak in...
    Now, for #5, definitely feel like waiting a bit to feel energised/human again - my older girls are overall helpful with their little sisters, but still a handful (might be linked to the number of kids to manage though) ^^ but conscious of my age and age gaps too...if #5 is our last baby, in theory I would prefer there to be a smaller gap with #4, but it will likely be 3+ years if we start TTC after she is 2+ (March next year - which would be too early for different reasons).

    Our sway didn’t work for #3 & we had a little oops for #4 but we love them all to bits... not sure if we ever will but somehow hoping we might add blue to the crew, to complete our family, one day...

    Fingers crossed for TTC #5 (again) for early 2024!
