I am CD 11 and planning to O around CD 14 if all goes to plan again. We plan to DTD CD 13, that evening so FX for + opks that day! DH has abstained, he last released on the evening of CD9 - so 4 days. We plan to go once like we did last time. I am just too wary of going any sooner.. for now anyway!
These are our supps/drinks etc.
ME:
1 tablespoon of gelatine mixed with a glass of pineapple/oj . I have this 3 times a day spaced out during the day.
AF - O started urals. I started with just once satchet a day. The week before O I upped it to 1 satchet 3 x a day and now that I am 2 days away from O I am having 2 satchets 3 x a day as per the instructions.
I have been having 1/4 teaspoon of l'arginine only every second day - every 3 days instead of every day like last cycle.
Brewers yeast & wheatgrass tablets.
Vit E 400iui a day.
Zinc 22mg a day.
Fish oil 3 x 1000mg a day.
Folic acid 5,000mcg a day - comes in one tablet.
Not having flax seed anymore - my jar ran out.
EPO - 1000mg a day.
Lemon water in between and will have vicks chesty cough syrup the day we attempt.
BSF will start tomorrow 2 x a day.
Day of attempt will do it 3 x a day with the last dose an hour before we BD.
This week leading to Ov. I have been having one big O a day something I NEVER do lol.
Will O before attempt and maybe try again right after we DTD while I lay with hips propped for a good hour or two.
Have been wearing my gold and burning incense.

My meals look like this.
Brekkie: museli with oat milk and chop banana
snack: apricot and sultanas
Lunch: ham, tomato whole grain bread and salt. OR steak, tomato, egg and wholegrain bread and salt with tomato sauce.
Snack: dark choc with raisin, plain potato salty crisps/chips or peanuts.
Dinner: something with meat and potato, salt and tomato sauce. Every 2nd day vegetables such as carrot, peas, broccolli, cauliflower.
Desert: dark choc with raisin 2-3 times a week.
Before bed a bowel of cereal as per brekkie time.
I have had a few lollies here and there and a few choc biscuits since last cycle - it won't hurt I tell myself lol.
Have been doing a few weights 2 times a week but really,. not much lol oh well!

My biorhythms and moon are in full girl zone too! haha!

I can't critique either but it looks good to me.

Are you getting EWCM? Maybe you could take the cough syrup a bit more often before your attempt if you don't get much EWCM.

Are you not having the canned soup anymore?

I think it looks great and I would never dare to critique it! ;)

As you know I would prefer that you had the folic spaced out throughout the day and also have protein with your snacks BUT I think those things are just nitpicky and your sway looks fantastic.

No EWCM yet although having a little creamy - wet.

No more soup the smell of it is enough for me now!

Ok ladies I think we may not try this month now!
DH says to me this morning I don't think this month is a good month... I asked why and he said because he just has a feeling if we do it will be a girl.. and to make it more freaky.. this is exactly how I have been feeling this month too I just did not want to admit it... so I am going to listen to our untuition I think!!!

Wow, that's kinda freaky to both feel the same way. Good idea to wait then :)

I totally believe in following your gut instinct. I can't tell you the number of times I've kicked myself because I didn't. But your sway still looked great! I'm a newbie around here and I learn so much by reading about everyone's sways! Best of luck to you in the future!

Woo-hooo! I thought I was going to be alone this month :p

Z - oh really?
Well opk still - but heaps darker than the one just a few hours ago.. will I still be in boy moon zone if the egg actually does not release until tomorrow or after midnight tonight?

TTC5
June 29th, 2011, 04:01 AM
If my opk is still negative before we go to bed I am considering setting my alarm for 5am and then begging dh to let me lay down and he can get girls ready for school etc :P Is it better to wait 12 hours AFTER a + opk or does it not really matter?

Zivic-Bubac
June 29th, 2011, 04:13 AM
Yes, that's the advice: BD 12 hours after first +OPK ( that way you will be in boy territory and no chance to miss the eggie!)
I test only once a day - around 2pm, but my plan is to bd around midnight, not to wait EXACTLY 12 hours ( 2am! I think DH is capable only of sleeping in that time :rofl:)

TTC5
June 29th, 2011, 04:30 AM
When do you try Z?

So say I get a + tonight around 9pm.. would it be ok to DTD midnight tonight.. or better to wait until like 5am (does waiting 5 hours really make a difference? I would rather dtd midnight, haha!... I don't want to dtd tomorrow evening too risky for me for an O+12 haha!

Zivic-Bubac
June 29th, 2011, 07:25 AM
I hope on June 30th....Still 30 min til POAS, so I'll see, yesterday I had the faintest line on OPK but it was there, so maybe I'll O on 30th :fx:
I would wait until +OPK, so if you get one at 9pm and you feel more comfy dtd in the midnight, then go!!!! :twocents: I know I'm not going to dtd at 5am for sure http://yoursmiles.org/tsmile/sleep/t2238.gif (http://yoursmiles.org/t-sleep.php?page=1)
