New to swaying pink!
Hi!
Wow, I have read for days now, everything about swaying pink on this site. Now my head is spinning!
I have 3 boys and am still nursing my 12 month old and we are planning on trying for one last baby in a couple of months.
My current plan is LE diet.
Aci-jel for lube?
Can I take antihistamine when nursing to dry up cm? If so, when?
I plan on only taking folic acid supplement or should there be something else I take? Like fiber?
I am contemplating ions, but haven't researched that yet.
Do you recommend shallow penetration and missionary? Or maybe not if only attempting one shot each cycle?
As far as bd timing. My dh is almost 38, so I don't want to do abstinence. So frequent release 7-10 days before ov, then one attempt after positive o test? Should he release more than one time a day? Is this a good plan or should I change it?
What about dh and vitamins? He drinks a fair amount of tea, should he stop? He is on board to try almost anything, so I welcome any suggestions.
Let me just say, this site is amazing!
I would love any advice if at all possible! Thank you so much!

I'm very much not an expert, new to this like you, but after doing my own research this is where I stand when it comes to your questions:
-I'm using Sylk for lube
-My personal experience is that antihistamine will dry up your milk...fast...so take that into consideration.
-I'm taking folic acid and Metamucil
-I don't think ions do anything, but I did buy a rock salt lamp and put it in my son's room as a night light
-from what I've read on here, the best timing for a girl is one attempt at +opk. Maybe some others can chime in and go further into that for you.
-my dh is going to take licorice root. He's started drinking diet drinks with me and will lower his amt of red meat.
I also love this sitepraying and swaying

thanks for the reply!
Good luck getting your girl!
Is that one attempt at bd after frequent release?
I think I might add some fiber then.
Good point on the antihistamine - I completely forgot about that side effect.
Maybe I should look into the sylk.
Here's hoping we both get to have a pink one in our arms soon!

No the one attempt is after abstaining. I think 7-10 days. There are other ways to do it if you feel that fir is better for you. There's an article about it but I can't remember the title!
Have you looked into the LE diet as well? I just started mine yesterday! Hope we both get our girls!praying and swaying

Hi! I'm new here too and trying to figure this all out :-)
From what I have read it is possible to combine fr and one attempt (but not fr in terms of bd without preservative). That is what we are planning on since my husband is 37 and we have had chromosomal defects previous. (He will probably have to manage the fr by himself most of the time...)Gorgeous 4 6 and unfortunately in jan 2014. Swayed pink but got a lovely little in jan 2015. Now expecting an OOOPS! baby, according to Panorama test a

I think I remember atomic telling another breastfeeding mom to only use antihistamine the day of attempt.
I agree with the sylk.
Start Fiber
No vitamins for DH and less meat is good! Maybe you can convince DH to take licorice root and OLE??
I love this site as well!!DS 1 2008

Thanks for the warm welcome!
Dh said he will cut down on meat. He asked if he should cut out fish too?
Sylk it is!
Is pepsi max ok, or not? Anybody know?
I have decided I am going to do the hour exercise everyday. Mostly it will be bike riding and walking.Whatever gives me the best odds.
This diet is tricky to figure out!
I will bump again in a day or two, thanks so much atomic!

You can do one attempt at +OPK with an abstain or frequent release or any pattern of DTD you choose. Just be sure that either DH is releasing outside you or you're using a condom so that the sperm isn't getting to the egg or messing up your cm's ph. I see Lots of ladies are DTD once every 4 days, that way they only BD once in their fertile window (one attempt) and don't have to stress about frequency and timing. (Your fertile window is only about 4 days)
