Preggos who swayed...question for you :)

How many cycles did it take you to get pregnant?

And what were some of the things that could have (or did) stand in your way? (aka: licorice root, abstaining, rephresh, etc, etc).

Was it more or less than previous children, non swaying children?

I was ttc about 6 months this time with a break part way through, for the first 5 months we were using timing which was definitely the reason I wasn't getting pregnant.
I started on the LE diet for 3 weeks and lost 8lbs and DH did FR, we bd twice the day I got a +opk and I got my BFP that month. Too early to know if the sway worked but I was getting way too stressed out ttc using timing so it was the way to go for us. As atomic says you will never get your desired gender if you don't get pregnant at all.

With my DS's (with no swaying) I fell pregnant the first month of ttc so 6 months felt like a long time. x

All of my kids were OHWs...I keep telling DH he's got some seriously aggressive swimmers! No sway with DD, TW sway with DS, and just an "egg health" sway for this one...

6 months. way longer than my other kids who were all 1-2 months.

I think our age was the biggest factor and also thar we weren't really trying, just not preventing. Vitex nay also have made a difference, i got pg the month i dropped it.

I had two swaying pregnancies in the past year - one ended in a m/c. With the first one it took us 4 months to get pregnant. This was waaay longer than my previous pregnancies. The month I got my BFP I had dropped Rephresh and Sylk, and we BD many, many times right through O. After my m/c I was fortunate to get pregnant again after my first period. I did use a teeny bit of Rephresh that time, but had last applied it 3 days before O. We also BD many, many times right up until O. My sway was successful, and I credit it all to diet (thanks, Atomic!).
