    Yes

    No
    Comments regarding DH's diet-
    I might have "accidentally" bought coke zero for him to drink vs regular coke the two weeks + leading up to attempt.
    DId you consume alcohol?
    • No


    DId you try to limit caffeine?
    No, I did not factor that into my sway
    Any Diet Details?
    I followed a mostly gluten free, vegan diet for about 18 mo before attempt. I lost enough weight where I was 20 pounds under my boy weight and back to the weight I was when I had my girls. I plateaued months ago. Stopped snacking, ate only two meals a day. I also switched back to my girl diet of drinking diet coke vs regular coke and kept nutrients low.
    Any Diet Comments/Additional Info?
    -
    WEIGHT AND EXERCISE
    What did you weigh/BMI do leading up to O?
    18.9 - 19.3
    Any Weight/Exercise related additional info/comments?
    couch potato
    THINGS in VG and CONCEPTION DATE(CD) INFO
    pH Before Starting a Sway Program, if known
    -
    Any VG potions used?
    • RePhresh
    • Other


    CM pH at attempt
    -
    DH pH
    -
    How many BD attempts did you make for the BFP cycle?
    2
    BD Dates according to Ovulation
    • 4 Days Before O
    • O Day


    Any additional comments?
    O date is inconclusive. If I Oed with the first attempt, it was the day before O and then the second attempt wouldn't count. I likely Oed after my positive OPKs though and that puts my attempts at 4 days before and on O day, possibly something like O+12.
    THE DEED INFO
    DH Info about Swimmers
    • Other


    BD Position
    Missionary
    Did you Jump and Dump?
    • Yes


    Any relevant attempt details?
    DH released 5-6 hours before our second attempt on possible O day. RepHresh used 11-14 hours before 1st attempt, and 36 hours before second attempt.
    SUPPLEMENTS USED
    DW Supplements
    • Clomid
    • folic acid
    • Fiber


    DH Supplements
    -
    Any additional supplement info?
    DH used olive leaf extract for about two weeks before attempt. I used vitex the entire cycle before attempt cycle. I also used cinnamon daily with my folic acid.
    Did you do anything with Ions?
    Rose quarts necklace and anklet, orange ginger aromatherapy from Bath and Body works, and orange essential oils, fan running, humidifier, girl moon phase
    Moon Phase during conception?
    Waxing Gibbous
    Did you use any Old Wives Tales?
    No.
    Things that make me feel great about my sway:
    The vitex the cycle before, the clomid, the rephresh, the cinnamon, and if I really did O when I think I did, then my attempt timing.
    Things that make me nervous about my sway:
    I feel like I could have been better with my diet, but then don't we all? Attempt time was on my birthday and of course we went out and had dinner with leftovers, and lots of cake, then we went out again for my b-day the night of my second attempt and had MORE cake and more heavy calorie dinners. Also, the OPKs ended up stressing me out more then expected. It wasn't my first round with them, but you would have thought so!
    Things worth mentioning:
    I'm breastfeeding, I'm a nurse, erratic sleep schedule, work night shift, tight underwear for DH, heated car seats, DH always takes hot showers

    Congrats! Looks good

    Can I ask how/why you got clomid, and what dose and days you took it? Was it your first time taking clomid?

    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

    Ohhh our sways are so similar (although I repHreshed 24 hours before 2nd attempt plus J & D'ed and had a late Zyrtec tablet so less chance of falling this first cycle). Yay, can't wait to hear the results! I'm guessing PINK! congrats again greeneyes xx
