Calling all boy moms and ovulation experts!!!!!!

[Junie]

I only have one. .but we dtd every other day and I laid there with my legs up in the air like an idiot for abt 20 mins afterwards lol

This cracked me up!
For both boys I also had multiple attempts in the fertile period. If you can I would try for all 4 days

Thanks for all your responses, you are all so great! Hey "odd", it's funny how I all of a sudden become a professional acrobat when it's time to get pregnant.... Last week I told hubby to turn me into a wheelbarrow and get ready to tear up the garden....ha ha ha

I would have sex every 2-4 days and then also get some OPK and have 3 attempts at or around pos OPK. IT's not timing, it's just getting more swimmers in the mix in your fertile window - that sways blue for reasons we don't totally know. or if you don't want to do OPK and jsut operate under the assumption you O on CD 17, I would have attempt CD 16, morning of CD 17, and then again night of CD 17

So, does everyone think one attempt each day for four is still okay to sway blue?

as long as you're darn sure when you ovulate, it's great.

What I have seen some people do is asume they are ovulating on a certain day, start DTD daily and then keep on going, but if they ovulate later than they think it could end up being 7-10 releases before O happens. Then the sperm from the earlier batches will have died off, and DH will have lowered his sperm numbers from that much releasing. So if you're not totally sure best to DTD every other day instead

Honestly i think it maybe the whole pkg. My cousin conceived her 2nd girl with dtd every day for a few close to ov.

It is absolutely the whole package and not ever just one thing in isolation.

I agree doing BDing everyday would lower DH's sperm count, making it less likely for the Y sperm to be in attendance. and then the cut off (I think from Shettles idk?) if you do a cut off less than 7 days (ex: every other or every few days no more than 6 day cut off 7 maybe pushing it) would possible increase your chances for Y sperm. my bff had a 1DD and when they were trying for a DS, her DH read and followed info controversial to what's popular on IG & GD, so he did a 7 or 8 day cutoff, b/c he thought it swayed Blue, low and behold it was another DD. Good luck on your sway hope you get your Blue XY Baby! =)

I ended up ovulating two nights early on cycle day 15, so we got only two attempts in, but we are happy to report, we got pregnant on the very first cycle.

I am by no means an expert in ewcm, but I can tell you that my mucus was different this cycle. I really never got the ewcm globs that I bragged of when I first wrote this post. I just figured it was because I ate about six to ten cloves a raw garlic each day, which for me, does make my mucus very watery. I used preseed, and got pregnant this cycle.

I hope that answered what you where asking
