    Did you purchase and follow a GD Personalized Plan?
    Yes
    DIET
    Did you follow a diet plan?
    Yes
    If yes to diet, which one did you most follow?
    • LE(Low Everything)


    Comments regarding DW's diet changes-
    I mostly followed LE, but also tried to add in foods that are considered acidic. I skipped breakfast and snacks, tried to eat only when I was really hungry. I didn't count protein, fat, or carbs as I didn't want to obsess too much. I mainly just tried to choose low calorie, low nutrient options. I had one cup of coffee with cream and sugar every morning around 10 am. Had a glass of wine mixed with pure cranberry juice nightly.
    If diet was used, length of time before attempt?
    I stopped nursing/pumping DS2 in July and began the diet early July. We conceived at the end of September, so about 10 weeks or so.
    Did you skip breakfast regularly?
    Yes
    Did DH change his diet with you?
    No
    Comments regarding DH's diet-
    DH didn't really change his diet, just tried to eat less red meat.
    DId you consume alcohol?
    • A couple of drinks per week


    DId you try to limit caffeine?
    No, I did not factor that into my sway

    119 lbs with a BMI of 18.6
    Any Weight/Exercise related additional info/comments?
    I didn't exercise. I lost about 7 lbs over the course of the 10 weeks on the diet. I had been sick too, which also contributed to the weight loss.

    Missionary position, jumped and dumped after about 5 minutes, no big O for me at time of attempt. However, I did have a big O earlier in the fertile period (with no release from him). DH did wear white tighties for about a week leading up to the attempt.

    I took a warm bath before our attempt and put lavender oil in the tub. Also used lavender candles.

    New Moon
    Did you use any Old Wives Tales?
    No
    Things that make me feel great about my sway:
    I felt like I put my all into it and did the best that I could. I normally eat a very boy-friendly diet so these modification were a big change for me. I also felt good about only having one attempt (atomic said she felt like the O-5 attempt didn't count). I was sick around the time of our attempt so I was hoping that would make our attempt extra pink-friendly.
    Things that make me nervous about my sway:
    I didn't follow the diet for as long as I had wanted but I had been sick and my weight was lower than I preferred so I figured it was a good time to go for it.
    Things worth mentioning:
    We are thrilled to be having boy #3 but I will always long for a little girl. Trying to convince DH to go HT in 2019. Hopefully I'll get my way
