    I am planning/hoping to TTC in early December, but I'm having an operation on November 25th and I'm not sure I'll be recovered enough in time, since I will O somewhere between Dec 5th-10th. So if I can't or don't conceive in Dec, I will be trying for sure in early January.

    I am swaying pink too, no children yet but I would really like a girl first. I swayed & TTC last Winter/early Spring without success, took a break from swaying over the summer,and resumed full on swaying in September. I'm doing the LE diet, taking Vitex daily, and skipping breakfast/no snacking. I will BD every 4 days around/before O since OPKs often don't give me enough warning.

    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 remověng 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

    Good luck Maiden

    Probably not a bad thing to sway to start with. Lol.. I just always assumed I'd have a girl. I was shocked when they announced that I was having a 2nd boy.

    Hope the operation goes well and you're able to try in Dec 😄
    2011, 2013 and due in Dec 2015 - thank you ATOMIC!!!

    I think I will be trying too in january or february. I started in september but I ate to little fat and proteine and didn't ovulate. Still waiting for AF so don't even know if I did yet. Considering starting again and have an attempt in january but I guess I'll be starting again after sinterklaas (something dutch) or christmas.
    But that will also depend very much on when AF arrives. I hope soon because I have no idea what CD I'm on

    Good luck to you ladies, may 2016 be the year for us

    Thank you Sunbuny! I do feel very lucky & blessed to have discovered swaying before having kids. Like you, I always just assumed I'd have girls but obviously it doesn't always work that way. So now I have a few chances to try swaying, and hopefully I won't mind too much if I end up with a boy first as I can sway again harder for a girl next time.

    My OP should sway pink too, permanently, but I imagine conceiving 10-15 days after will be ideal as I'll have just mostly recovered but will still be in relatively poor maternal condition.

    We will also try in January for a baby boy. I thought I was done when my second DD was born, but as they grow older and become more independent I started dreaming again of my baby boy...
    I have started HE diet since Semptember, have already gained 4 kilos...This makes me nervous and thinking maybe to try December, but I had the IUD removed this month and since it sways pink I want to have a couple of cycles before I try...
    Good luck to us all!!!

    ttc jan any attempts

    Hi ladies! I will most likely be joining you all ttcing in January. We have been swaying for a girl, and we have two DSs. I had a chemical last month, and I found out my FSH is astronomically elevated from a supplement I was taking (not for swaying purposes). I feel until my hormones readjust, the chances are slim we will conceive. We are still trying though- you never know!

    To all that are swaying boy- catch my blue baby dust!!! I can also help with meal/snack ideas, since I used to rock the boy diet well 😉!

    Yes it was Mirena and I ovulate every month, eventhough I did not have any period at all for the past seven years...
    My OB told me I would ovulate the day after removal (2 weeks ago) , but still no AF.
    How are you coping after surgery???


    XXforhubby - thank you for your blue dust, you can have all of my pink!!!
