Any additional comments?
I didn't want to use the RePhesh too close to the attempt, so i took it the last time on CD 9.
I expected my O on CD11, but because i was using Clomid my O was delayed to CD15.
I didn't take a bath anymore between the RePhresh and the attempt, only shower.
THE DEED INFO
DH Info about Swimmers Other
BD Position
Multiple
Did you Jump and Dump? No
Any relevant attempt details?
DH released every 2 days. In one morning i had a negative OPK but i felt that my O was coming soon. That evening we did a release. In the morning i had a positive OPK. I didn't want to wait until that evening to DTD, so we did it in that morning. I was on top, no big O for me. I layed flat for 5 minutes, then got up and whiped off.
During the day i felt cramping so i guess that's when i ovulated.

DH took Olive treat for 2 months.
Did you do anything with Ions?
No
Moon Phase during conception?
First Quarter
Did you use any Old Wives Tales?
I had a baby cap for a girl under my pillow.
Things that make me feel great about my sway:
The fact that my diet was so different then with my boys.
Using Clomid, for swaying only.
The excercise, because i used to be a couch potatoe.
Things that make me nervous about my sway:
DH family is a real boy family.
I can't imagine having a DD, i seems nearly impossible.
Things worth mentioning:
I think this sway was the best i could. I did the diet for the full 10 weeks. I hardly had any cheat.
Even if it turns out to be a boy, i kow we did all we could. I hope with all my heart that it was enough, but i will be happy with another baby boy as well.
We found out that 1 baby is a girl!!
The other one didn't show.
