Help! I can't get my ph to budge- for boy. Tamara, I REALLY need your help! Blood type diet.

NormagenetheJumpingBean:

 Yep, so putting the the blood type diet up against the IG diet (if i'm doing it right), the only things I can eat are:

celery, amsterdam carrots, chicken and turkey, apricots, cherries, pineapple, white rice, and peanuts (but only once/wk and not at all wk of o).

That's it.

So is this correct?  Is this everything?  This is what was on the blood type diet and the IG diet.

 Hi Normajean,  I too am in the same boat ...I tried it all diet drinks ...and that someone suggested Alfalfa and I have to say it finally did budge to my surprise... .I am type O+ and read all the things on the diet are not good...However I'm trying to stick to the diet anyway. I know it is so frustrating, but try it it just might work

Thanks needalilprince.  I might try that.

You mentioned alfalfa.  I think I'm going to pick some up today.  How much do you take?

Hi I take 1 tablet per day but have absolutely no idea how much is in that tablet, but it does only say 1 per day, will have a look when I get home;

I have been taking 2 pills 1xd this cycle I may increase to 3 pills 1xd ..FX this helps you too

 

 Thanks Strawbell and needalil prince! The only thing I'm concerned about with it is that it can delay o.  I already have a delayed o (cd19-24 most of the time, but have o'd as late as cd52) and am taking soy isoflavones this cycle to try and combat that.  Do you think the alfalfa would mess that up?

I took soy Isoflaves & alfafla last cycle  and ovulated a day earlier....I will now take Tamaras advice and take it the week of ovulation only...Thank you Tamara for your help

Tamara:

Alfalfa would not mess that up.  However, it can lower testerone, so only take it when you are o'ing to get your pH up

Thanks Tamara!  That's is reassuring.

I could not find any alfalfa today, where are you getting it, needalil prince?

I went under the website... http://www.naturesway.com/ and found a local store that carried it...HTH!

 Okay, so I've been sticking with the pinapple, celery, chicken, white rice, apricots, and potatoes at least once per day, along with all my lemon water, acv, bs+cot drink, along with all my supps.  I haven't been able to stick to it perfectly.  My MIL had knee surgery a few weeks ago and I've been running her to all her appts and doing her errands for her.  Then on the 31st my dh's grandma passed away and then his sister had to be put into the hospital for severe preeclampsia @ 34 weeks and delivered her boy on the same day grandma passed away.  I've had to handle most everything since my MIL is not able.....it's been a crazy couple of weeks!    My ph is still being stubborn @ about 4.5.  I also took soy isoflavones on  cd 2-6 of this cycle so that I might o earlier and hit the full moon.  I've been wearing only gold jewelry all the time, burning incense on a constant when I'm home and keeping my cell phone on me at all tiimes.  I've been having o pains for the last 5 days and started  getting ewcm and then all of a sudden my ewcm just dried up!  This morning it looks like it's trying to come back, but it isn't any where as abundant as last cycle.

This is just really, really frustrating!  I did buy some alfalfa and when I get my + opk I'll start taking it.   I also bought some grapefruit juice and am going to start drinking some of that (watching the minerals, of coarse).  I've also been making pineapple juice popsicles and eating at least one everyday.  Was lifting weights a lot the two weeks before dh's grandma passed and will start back today.  I've thought about not even trying this cycle.  It is so hard.  Was at doc's yesterday and heard a baby's heartbeat (over dopler) from the next room.  I broke down....
