Disappointed - Still not pg

[tweedledeedum]

Okay, I have been on the diet since May 1 and have had two good attempts. I am still not pregnant! I just knew I would get pg the first month (stupid, I know). Now, I'm still waiting.

Anyone know the average time to get pg while swaying?

My dh and I are 30. I hope to have two more kids before 36.

This month I am forgetting timing and am going right through O. I'm not sure what else I can do to up my odds. Last month I did a full tube of Refresh right after AF but that was it.

Anyone else struggling? I just don't think I can keep up the diet much longer. I ate homemade potato salad last night for the first time all summer and it was divine! I miss food so much.

I think it's sensible to BD as close to O as you can, you only have a 30% chance each month if normal fertililty and DTD on OV day too...
hope that works fast for you!

I'm sorry! I hate that aspect of swaying!! It does tend to take longer for pink swayers to get pg but that's the way the pink sway works...by decreasing fertility to a certain extent.

BD through O will help you get pg quicker, but keep in mind that it's totally normal to take a few months to get pg even if you are not doing anything to sway. It may be that you don't NEED to change anything, just wait for another month and it will happen for you.

I know how you feel, tweedle - I'm in the exact same position. I'm about to O on my third month TTC. The worst part is, I'm not feeling good about this month's attempt because I used a bit of rephresh yesterday and now O is coming early - I think maybe tomorrow. I wasn't going to use rephresh anywhere near O because I was convinced that's what's keeping me from getting pregnant!

I know exactly how you feel, too. Especially the first month i was sooo desperate (and convinced) to get pregnant right away and had so many fantasies of celebrating that bfp with food...it sounds like you know what i mean...
now the second month it´s different because my diet was a lot worse plus I build up muscle hiking in the mountains on holiday, so it´s fine if i don´t get a bfp this month, which I probably won´t since we had a 3 day cut-off instead of 1 day like planned.
Now I´m figuring out a looser sway that I can stick to for several months and still be happy and not yelling to my kids because I get such a bad mood from the diet : more coffee, normal dinner, I try to think less about the sway and not feel like my life is on a hold untill that bfp arrives, I take a lot of deep breaths too lol.
Think of it this way: the longer it takes, the lower your fertility is probably so it´s much more likely that girl will come to you!
Try to visualize her as well
