Pls comment on my sway
Apologies If this is in the wrong place - I didn't want to put it in the add your girl sway yet as it is still a work in progress and I am not pregnant!

I'm pretty old now so that should affect my fertility but am still concerned that I might conceive first time (as with my two boys) so would like to get the sway right when we TTC just in case. Please point out any glaring problems and/or suggest anything else I could do. Thanks!

Hi Emily.

I'd def. like to see you increase protein and sodium for sure (for your health and the health of a future baby, it's important not to cut back too far), and also a bit more cals and fat will help you conceive more quickly and help preserve ovulation.

Don't jump and dump, lay flat for at least 5 min and 15 may be better with everyhting else you're doing + age.

I really don't want people taking Sudafed at all and 100% for sure don't mix and match with antihistamine.

Thanks Atomic, am still finding my way round the diet - juggling the protein/calories. I suspect that my fitnesspal isn't very good at sodium so am probably eating more than it says.

I'm taking the antihistamine for hayfever (as with both boys) so I guess that I didn't really see it as a mix and match situation - just trying to reduce cm which I think has been a key problem for myself and my sister (4 boys between us). Will stay clear of Sudafed - thanks for heads up

If you're already on antihistamine for hay fever and still getting scads of CM, you can add Benadryl (diphenhydramine) to EITHER Claritin or Zyrtec (not both.) Benadryl works differently and you can layer it with Claritin or Zyrtec.
