Hello Everyone! & thank you for reading!!!

I hope I am posting in the right place! I am new to swaying but this site has been a dream

I am currently nursing my 12mon-old and DH and I have been planning to TTC since she was 8 month but no AF yet. Well, Dec 9th (her due date, lol) AF showed up. In the past, I usually have had normal cycles but never charted them or used OPK's. AF came on 9 Dec; I normally have a 31 day cycle and suspected ovulation on the 26th of Dec. I started taking OPK's 2 times a day on the 22nd. Using OPK's I have learned I naturally have LH in my urine. I had what I thought was my positive (barely as dark as the control) on the 25th. We Bed’s on the 26th, 27th, 28th. We are both on a HE diet, tested CM PH and I am normally acidic, but used a Baking Soda Douche on the 26th & 27th. He drank coffee and red bull before each BD. No BBT, because I ordered it online and it has not made it to Korea, yet.

Here's my question and concern! I continued to take OPK's on all days including 12/29 and 12/30 (a new brand), well, then this happened
the top one is 12/29 8pm and the bottom one is 12/30 @ 1pm.

The top one is 12/29 8pm and the bottom one is 12/30 @ 1pm.
That is a positive, if I'm not mistaken?! Which means we timed just right for a girl?? Is my sway over if I have conceived? We plan to BD as soon as I get home from work.
Words of wisdom and thoughts would be great!!

The bottom does look positive, I use that same brand OPK. But since you've been BDing every day you're sway is going great! I would continue to BD once a day for the next 4 days however, since it is possible you have yet to O. Honestly, if you can, I'd BD every day until you get AF or a BFP, just to make sure you don't miss O and optimize your boy sway. Good luck!

Timing doesn't work and I think you are in with a good attempt so far. I would have you DTD every other day from here on in.

I'm just going to put it out there because I wish I knew this before but I'd honestly wait to try to conceive a boy until you're done breastfeeding your daughter. When I look at the current sway results and compare the supps to the ones I took as well as bd position, lube, etc I would have guessed I would have my boy but had my 12 week ultrasound last week and it's really looking like another girl. My diet was significantly different (but maybe not 100% there) but I was still nursing (my daughter was 10 months when I got pregnant). I also looked back at the swaying spreadsheet and rabbitmamma85 looked like she had a great away and ended up with a girl but when you find her detail she was nursing still too. Just my two cents but I really am convinced now that breastfeeding sways strongly girl as everything with this one was so different than with my girls and I still seem to be pregnant with a girl.

I do think breastfeeding sways pink BUT that having been said, it's no way a magic bullet and tons of us got boys while breastfeeding. (I got 1 boy and 1 girl while breastfeeding, 3 boys without it.)

JillyBean23, you make an interesting point! How often were/are you nursing? We will definitely take this into consideration!
I was reading the tips on breastfeeding and swaying, however, we have already attempted this month. Although, I'm fairly sure I ovulated late (if I even ovulated this cycle) on CD24/25, so we shall see. FX! Hopefully, we can beat the odds!

I was actually nursing MORE when I got my DS 4 than when I got my DD. I do think it sways pink but we still see tons of little dudes conceived when BF!!! Sending you a ton of blue dust, bre.
