COMMENTS?
After trying for 2 months already I really wanted to be pregnant so we dtd every other day. I thought for sure I would get a boy from that pattern, but my 17w5d ultrasound shows it's a girl. Also my husband did not change his diet at all. He eats a lot of red meat, high sodium foods, and drinks a lot of beer. I really think the lowering of calories and skipping breakfast helped.

I did not use refresh the month we got pregnant. I was turned off of it because of the white discharge so I stopped. With my other daughter she was a failed pull out baby. I didn't think there was any way we had gotten pregnant because we were careful not too, but I guess not careful enough I don't know exactly when I ovulated with her, but I know she was conceived with a few day cutoff. I thought for sure I would have a boy this time because of the frequency of bd, but I was frustrated that I hadn't gotten pregnant on the previous two attempts so I went for it. With my son we dtd every day for four days through ovulation so I figured at least I was doing something different from him.

I might have asked before but I often forget who has responded, and what bd they tried!
