Hi girl swayers - I have been ttc for a girl a couple of months and is now on my first round of clomid (50 mg, day 2-6). I really want to get pregnant fast, but without distroying the chances of concieving a baby girl. I took the first clomid pill May 13, so today (May 31) is day 19. I have read that most people ovulate around day 15 but I have not had a positive test before this morning when I tested around 9 o'clock. We dtd yesterday evening at 11 before going to bed. I just took one more ov test today at 3 o'clock which was negative. I was out all day yesterday and forgot to test. My question is, if you think we should dtd tonight or if we should stick to one attempt? I have read that when you get a positive test, you'll ovulate within the next 24-36 hours, so would you say that doing it yesterday is in the fertile window? I'm a bit confused ;)

Pink dust and crossed fingers for all of us

If you want to stick with one attempt in fertile window I'd stick with the one you have. that's still a good time to conceive.

If you want to up odds of conception have another attempt tonight.

Eiether way, I'd start up with every 4 days after this just in case it was a fake surge and you'll O later in the month.

Thanks Atomic - very helpful. I got my ds on clomid with one attempt, but I did not do the LE diet back then so I think I'll stick with one attempt in this cycle.
Another question: I have been quite strick on the diet the last two months (skipping breakfast, low protein, low calories, high doses of aspartame, baby aspirin and folic acid every day). My sister and her husband has been staying with us for 4 days which made it difficult for me to keep the calories and the protein down (i did not want to share my sway diet with them and therefore had the same for dinner as them). I managed to avoid breakfast though. The question is, if these 4 days can ruin the whole sway - at least in this cycle?

No, 4 days cannot ruin a sway, especially if you were doing the best you could do.

Cheating is not only allowed, but encouraged on LE Diet and this is one of the reasons why. :)
