April/May/June 14 swayers...

[Rosie85]

Welcome Moma! Of course we don't mind you joining!

I do think if you start now that is a good deal of time to put into your sway! That is all the time I am putting in!

Yes, actively losing weight should sway more than being overweight. I could be wrong but that is what I gathered from around the site.

I hope you don't mind me asking but after having your tubes reversed are your capabilities of falling pregnant the same as before the tubal? Is fertility affected in any way?

Hi! We are going to be TTC a Girl this year too - I currently have a 22mo old son. While he is amazing - I still hope to have a daughter. This will be my only attempt as we only want 2 kids. I am going to purchase a plan and hopefully I get through it and get my girl! Best of luck to everyone here!

Welcome ladies!! I'm glad we are going to have a nice sized group. It's always fun to root people on I seriously doubt I will get pregnant in April-June, my cycles are all wonky from nursing and I'm sure they will take a while to iron out. But hopefully it won't take too long so I can hang with you guys!

Looks like its all pink swayers so far.

And momamia4, I think you are exactly right, the act of losing weight will sway stronger than the fact of being overweight. I think that being overweight can sway in and of itself too (pink), so I don't think that will be a huge hurdle in your plans. I hope your reversal goes well. I don't know much about it, but I hope all is smooth

Rosie, unfortunately fertility is affected. It varies depending on the type of TL that was performed and your age at the time of the reversal. Of course, mine is the type that has the lowest odds for conception (ligation & resection) but I do have age on my side, as I'm only 31. So, I have about a 70% chance of actually getting pregnant. I also have a higher risk of tubal pregnancy due to potential scar tissue blocking the tubes. Which means I have to have an ultrasound much earlier to confirm the pregnancy is actually in my uterus. So a bit of additional stress on top of trying to sway. I am planning on doing my best to not think about all of the added stress and just putting it up to god. I don't foresee any trouble, as the tubal itself was very straightforward, but there's also an added risk of too much damage to the tubes and the fact that it has been almost 8 years since I had them tied which make everything more difficult. Ugh.... I am doing my best to stay optimistic though!!

wow! you had your kids young, not a bad thing though of course! I hope all of the odds are in your favor, 70% is a good number to have on your side for sure.

Ladies I am stressing out. I ordered a rose quartz bracelet and it said it was delivered and I never got it! It is lost in the mail, I am supposing someone else got it in their box. Should I take this as a sign!?

No, I wouldn't take it as a sign. Just call the company and tell them it was never delivered. Generally, if you ask them to send another one, they will.

Hi ladies,
I am hoping to start ttc a daughter this spring. Dh and I are still trying to agree on which month. He wants to wait a bit longer so we can be a little more financially ready for a baby (he will be out of work for 2-3 months this year bc he's going to school). I want to try sooner because I am turning 35 this year and am worried about fertility being an issue. So we can come to an agreement soon because I want us both to be happy with the decision and not have any stress about it. He does really want another baby I think he just feels we have all the time in the world.

I have been on the LE diet and skipping breakfast for a week and, I am trying to ease into being vegetarian. I am overweight (was when I conceived my boys), I have about 40 lbs to loose. Lost 5 lbs so far, yay!
Haven't bought a personalized plan, still thinking about it, I have been trying to do lots of research in the last few weeks and put together my own plan but I get so confused with all the info on here and the IG site.
Still need to figure out what supps I will take and need to start tracking my ovulation this is something I've never done before. Both my boys were surprise conceptions, was on birth control when I conceived Ds2.
Good luck to all of you, I hope you get your dg

welcome Deb!

It takes time to sort it all out. The biggest thing is to always make sure you are comfortable with what you are doing. Certain aspects of the sway bother me and I left them out and others I made my choice to do them because of the stats and research.

Congrats on the weight loss so far! We are in the same boat, I have about 40 to lose and have lost 5 so far! exciting isn't it?!
