    Welcome! Have you come over from IG? Several parts of your sway are thought to sway blue or are no longer relevant. Take a look though this site especially for LE (low everything) diet.

    Sounds , like you have been blending different swaying theories. I would make these changes:

    Things on your avoid list that are fine to have: raw tomatoes, potatoes, salt, bananas, onions, celery, garlic, legumes (beans, peas, lentils) in moderation, and caffeine (probably sways pink if anything, especially high dose/lots of it)

    Things on the have list: any water is fine, doesn't need to be bottled let alone evian, pasta should be kept to small servings,cooked tomatoes in moderation & not every day, dairy isn't necessary but low fat or fat free dairy is good in moderation, all veggies are fine to eat just avoid dark/brightly coloured ones if you have a choice I.e. iceberg lettuce over baby spinach in a salad, cauliflower over broccoli, etc but don't stress, all veggies are pink friendly.

    But, the total number of calories daily (1200-1800 depending on your weight & activity level) as well as overall amounts of fat and protein daily (20% of cals from fat, 30% from protein) and overall nutrients (minimize vitamins, minerals, and phytochemicals) are what really matter, not the exact foods you eat. Eat mostly carbs, avoid fortified foods, eat low protein and especially focus on low fat (saturated fats in particular should be reduced).

    Ph doesn't matter much and testing with ph strips is probably a waste of time and can even sway blue. Don't douche and I wouldn't recommend rephresh as it isn't swaying strongly. The LE diet should take care of your CM (reduce most EWCM and turn it creamy instead), but if you have a lot of EWCM or Watery CM you can take an antihistamine before BD.

    60+ min of cardio exercise 5-7 days a week is having very good results so you could add that if you want to sway pink even harder! DH can reduce fat, protein, and nutrients and do the cardio along with you, and take licorice root and olive leaf extract, that will all sway pink as well.

    My Ovulation Chart
    currently TTC, Cycle #16 since last BFP

    TTC #1 - swaying pink on & off since Nov 2013 - hoping for a girl first but excited for either!

    Dec 2001 - May 2006 : 5 early abortions of healthy singletons (3 medical @5w, 2 surgical @8w, last 4 pregnancies conceived with late DH, all conceived while TTA/on birth control)
    Mar 2012: miscarried B/G twins @5w (conceived 2 cycles after removìng Paraguard copper IUD while NTNP), one twin was ovarian ectopic

    Me: 34, widowed, late O + short LP, normal-good hormone levels excepting undetectable testosterone, seeking a known sperm donor/life partner
    My sway: vegetarian LE for over 28w, skipping breakfast, fibre (ground psyllium husks) with/before/between meals, physically inactive, drama avoidance, ocassional minimal YesBaby lube as needed, alternate cycles on low dose Clomid, double shot lattes (with meals)
    Past sway tactics I've dropped (in order): Vitex, Sudafed, antihistamines, intermittent fasting, one attempt per cycle at positive OPK, one attempt in fertile period

    Oh really :-( it's complete opposite to have I had/did when I conceived my boys. Feeling a bit down now as I've got everything wrong. I thought caffeine speeded up the swimmers? I'll try & find the LE diet on here. Thank you for you replies...I feel very confused & negative :-(

    If you're able to spend a little, Atomic will do up a personalised swaying plan for you which takes all the stress out if it. She's the swaying expert! Lol
    Best of luck whatever you decide

    I would be very interested in this. Do you mind me asking if you had a personalised plan when you conceived your little girl? She looks so cute btw! How do I get in contact with Atomic?

    Thanks x

    Yes I did and I found it a great help If you have a look around the site there is a section for asking questions about the plans, or you could pm Atomic. She is very friendly and helpful and will advise on what's best for you.

    Yes, get a plan done, then you don't need to worry. Go to the Membership and Plans section and you'll see all the things on offer. There's loads on here to read if you would rather plan it yourself but Atomic has years of experience filtering through scientific studies.
