    Any additional supplement info?
    DH has insane super sperm so he took 3 liquorice root tablets from AF-O, then dropped to 1 tablet from O-AF for three months with no breaks.

    I took vitex for 6 months then stopped the 3 months we actually ttc.
    Did you do anything with Ions?
    By coincidence I have an ionic hair dryer.

    There were thunderstorms all day the day I conceived.
    Moon Phase during conception?
    Waning Gibbous
    Did you use any Old Wives Tales?
    Wooden spoon tied with pink ribbon under my bed, alongside a gorgeous baby girl outfit.

    I had high pre-ovulation temperatures.
    Things that make me feel great about my sway:
    Had a bad cold in the week leading up to ovulation and felt crappy, which is supposed to help sway pink so was a lucky coincidence.

    I'd been stressing out about everything for months beforehand, but the cycle I conceived I was really oddly serene and relaxed.

    Had no ewcm, and very little in general.

    Both mine and DHs sex drives were really low.

    I prayed, a lot.
    Things that make me nervous about my sway:
    Not having enough days of BD because of ovulating early.

    Not being strict enough with my diet during my 2 week waits.

    Wishing I'd used rephresh.
    Things worth mentioning:
    DH cycles around 7 miles daily travelling to and from work. Wearing tight undies.

    It was during a heat wave and DHs "goods" were almost always disgustingly hot and sweaty!

    I had cycle blood tests done and apparently have very high FSH levels of 16 indicating diminished ovarian reserve, so I was lucky to conceive at all.

    DH started shift work and we were both shattered, getting less than 6 hours sleep most nights.

    I have low vitamin D levels.
