dh & diet
Sorry if this has been covered elsewhere but does dh need to include or exclude foods from the le diet.
Also, does he need to skip breakfast and no snacking? Many thx in advance x

If DH does the LE with you, thats great. If not, that's okay too. What you do sways most.
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

As maiden said, what you do is 90%, however him eating LE foods with you can only help. That being said, I think if you had to pick one dietary change for DH to make it would be giving up meat (or at least red meat). I don't think it matters at all if DH skips breakfast/snacks.

Ok thank u! We r both already vegetarian but he does eat eggs which he is happy to reduce or stop as advised by atomic. It was just the breakfast and snacking really. He doesnt mind skipping both so I will let him decide if it isnt essential.
He is drinking soy milk which he rlly hates but
How about alcohol? He likes a few drinks on weekends.

Low nutrient alcohol (clear/light liquor, white wine, pale beer) seems to sway pink for both DH & DW.

Alcohol reduces fertility and is fine for you and DH.

He doesn't need to do diet, but if he's willing to cut back on eggs, meat, and saturated fat, that's great. IF he went fully vegetarian, even better. But many of us (myself included) have gotten girls with DH doing nothing to help.

Atomic, this may sound crazy but I’ve been reading about moon phases… I have a ‘red moon cycle’ currently which I didn’t used to have. Meaning my period is coinciding with the full moon. From...
