Purple, I will look into the Clomid while breastfeeding,if it means it will better my odds.Did you go veggie totally or had a little bit of meat with the diet?

For anyone who swayed twice and was successful

I swayed successfully twice. I just had my youngest daughter this month. I was stricter with my first sway, trying to lose some weight when I didn't have much to lose by eating less and lower nutritional value (no exercise). I also used saw palmetto after taking vitex for months. This last time, I focused on long breaks between eating (ate 2x a day only) to keep blood sugar low and took supplements for egg quality due to my age, like myo inositol, coq10, and melatonin. I didn't lose weight but I was on low end of normal for my height. We only had one attempt the night of a pos opk, but I had a very consistent cycle and knew when I was ovulating. My sways are on the sway board.

I'm going to go read them. Hoping to add a second daughter! Congratulations

that was going to be my suggestion. Generally I have people go full on alternate diet the second time through and have good results doing this. Yes, you can do vegetarian on alternate diet, I do urge you guys to have dairy and eggs though as a straight vegan diet can be too carby for PCO-tendencies.

And Clomid is ok when breastfeeding, approved by Kelly mom and Dr. Thomas Hale.

Thanks Ladies!! We are thinking of having the next Bub a lot closer so it will prb be a late 2017 attempt.Is saw palmetto and vitex out of the question whilst BF? Depending on how this baby goes..I will just play it by year when they want to wean.I just wish I had of done it for longer last time.I will get a customised plan this time around,Atomic :-) I just really want it to give my best shot.

Vitex is compatible with breastfeeding. I am on it and I'm still breastfeeding a 16-month old. It is known to reduce prolactin levels, though (which is probably part of why it is used to bring back post-partum AF), so you may have to keep an eye on your supply when you take it. I had no problems. Also it can be linked to miscarriage so only take it for the first two weeks of your cycle.
Saw pimetto is NOT compatible with breastfeeding. You can check out the thread on this for a full explanation from Atomic.

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...
