My cycle is very regular. And O always CD 9-10
I dont have problems by getting pregnant at all...i am that sort of people that get pg only by looking at my husband haha. I am just planning to take clomid 25mg to sway for a girl is this oke?
When i take clomid will my O day become later or earlier?
on which CD should i take it when i O early?
thx !

Yes and there's no way to predict when you will O on it.

Since you ovulate early, I would take it days 2-6 or 3-7 and no later.

Really i cant predict my O when im on clomid? i want to do 2 days cutt off , one attempt.
i heard many women had clomidboys by knowing exactly their O date and BD right up to O is that true?

Really, you can't.

Don't do a cutoff with Clomid. You need to get pg quickly while on Clomid and the best way to do that (while doing one attempt, that is) is by DTD at positive OPK. Timing doesn't sway and you can only do Clomid a few months before you have to stop taking it - don't waste Clomid chasing sway tactics that don't even work.

Everyone has heard of timing and so they all think "Oh I got a boy, that means I must have BD on O" but it is REALLY hard to know when you Oed, even for people who are super knowledgeable about it.

DTD several times in your fertile window sways blue. Has nothing to do with what day a person ovulated.

While on Clomid, my doctor instructed BD every other day from Day 10 until Day 21 (I get a blood draw on Day 21/22 to check progesterone levels for ovulation). This time around, we BD on 13, 16 and 19 so we wouldn't miss the egg. Good thing we didn't wait for the +opk because I never got one. Good luck!

By the way, I ovulated late on Clomid. Never before Day 19 on any successful cycle.

Timing really doesn't sway. I have had 5 girls BDing right up to O or one shot on O day. I have never had a cut off! Your diet, etc sways more than any timing.

It is a mistake to give Clomid which does sway, for timing which does nothing.

You DO NOT need to do the opposite, if that is not why you got boys,it will not help you get a girl.

i got my first boy after O
my second boy on O or one day before...
so this time i want to try 2-3 days before O
please understand me that im very scared to do the same with my boys..
this is really a hardcore sway, i really want a girl this time :rolleyes:
i am also scared to get (boy)twins with clomid, Or 25mg CD 2-6 does not make twins??

If you want a cutoff, don't do Clomid. I think it is a mistake, but you should not do the Clomid with cutoff, it will reduce your chance too far.
The Clomid sways, the timing doesn't, but it's your sway.

Twins are ALWAYS a risk with Clomid. Days 2-6are probably the worst for odds of twinning but you have to take it before ovulation.
