Nacire e4d is equivalent to one attempt :) Its super unlikely that any swimmers from cd6 bd would be around by tomorrow when you o. If you're super worried though why not compromise and have an attempt tomorrow morning instead??

Pbn3 - I just literally took it at 2pm same time I take it everyday. Do you remember telling me to start charting on cycle day 10 instead of what I was originally wanted to do? I started a few days ago because I noticed my cycles go from long to short in a pattern kinda sorta.. There is no egg white present only watery.
Good luck!! :fx:Quote:

If you're concerned its too early would you be happy with a bd tomorrow am? If you're really undecided then can I suggest flipping a coin? Heads you bd tonight, tails you bd in morning. Sometimes it comes down to making a decision and being happy with it. I used the coin flip many times when undecided as I liked to think it was the 'universe' deciding for me and I would be happy just to have the decision taken out of my hands 😂

Nacire-if you BD tonight or tomorrow, then I'd recommend BDing again in another 3 or 4 days just in case (as Atomic advised me)! GL...catch that egg!!

I had a 85-90% dark chocolate square after lunch and dinner with my DS1 and DS2 (my DS3 was a sway opposite)! It is high in phytonutrients and low in fat, which is perfect for a blue sway!Quote:

What does 85-90% mean? Sorry probably a silly question. Is there anything wrong with having dark chocolate mounds while blue swaying? It never crossed my mind that maybe it was supposed to be pure dark chocolate..Quote:

TtcBlue - Thank you so much! Welcome to the group! They have just welcomed me recently and it’s an amazing group of women :)
Pbn3 - Yes you totally recommended I start earlier than my original plan to start at like CD15 which clearly you are psychic :bigsmile: I think I will do a late night baby dance and let go and let God take control. Any extra advice before this attempt tonight that may sway in my favor?
Lolabelle - Thank you for sharing Atomic’s advise! My hubs leaves on Friday so that attempt would be to many maybe? All this its super scary.
Ttc, I know it sounds crazy to sway for another girl after having 2 DD's, but I'm from a family of 4 girls and we are all extremely close...I absolutely love the sister bond that we have and really wish for that for my daughters. We would also have a large age gap between the two girls (they are only 19 months apart) and a 3rd (they would be 6 & 8 when/if DD3 was born). There's 0% chance that DH will go for #4, so just thought a boy would feel alienated with a large gap and no same sex siblings. Maybe that's crazy, but I do love having girls and would love to have one more daughter. My sisters also have a very similar diet, exercise, and lifestyle as me and all have boys, so I feel like there's reason for me to sway this time around.
Nacire, yaaaay for positive! I would bd either tonight/tomorrow and then again in 3 days, but that's just me.
Lola, I had very mild food aversions with both pregnancies, but no MS. I couldn't eat tomatoes, which was weird, and really craved lots and lots of avocado, but that's the only things that changed for me in the pregnancies. That said, I have friends with girls that did have lots of MS. :)
Pbn, hope your psychic abilities are right for me also!! :)
xx, augghhh I've been eating dark chocolate all along!
Nacire you and dh could have a warm/hot bath/shower prior to your attempt? It's not a big sway factor but rather something enjoyable, relaxing and easy to include sway wise :) So excited for you!!

Switch to Dove milk chocolate squares! They are decadent! That's what I did this time, because I love (and have to have!!) my chocolate!!Quote:

Maxim me too!!! Really hoping to see a pos opk from you day after tomorrow!!!! Will hubby be home? That would Thursday your time right?
Sent from my GT-I9305T using Tapatalk
Pbn, me toooo! Yes, he will be home starting tomorrow (Wednesday) until Monday.
xx, good call I love those!! Which prenatal did you take this time?
Max-interesting about the aversions! I had terrible food aversions for DS1 & lost weight. I didn't even know what I liked to eat anymore!! You are one of the lucky ones without MS...fx that the trend continues for you! [emoji173]
Nacire-not sure what others will recommend, but you could BD on Fri before DH leaves if that's a possibility...if you're too worried about it swaying blue...you could J&D (jump & dump). Just a thought??
Naci – woo hoo that is positive go get that egg missy! :D
I think for a pink sway you’re probs better off on pos opk rather than waiting, no?
XXforhubby – making me feel better about the piece of 85% dark choc I have lined up for snack with a banana :D lots of good antioxidants hehe
I had quite strong MS with both girls – never really vomited much but most of the time wish I could because felt like that would have been making it easier – feeling on the verge of being sick 24/7 was horrendous – that I am not looking forward to lol
Ladies, TMI sorry – but just had some EWCM when I went to the loo – so must be getting close – if opks are neg still today am worried about missing my actual fertile window – it’s driving me nuts not to know for sure when I will O :P
Am tempted to BD tonight even if not positive – gah – please shake some reason back into me! Lol
Will leave the office early – I need to drop by the city get hubby his Bday present anyways – so will be home by 2pm ish I hope and can do my 1st opk then…
Nacire I'd see how your temps looks Thursday and Friday mornings to see if they indicate o has likely happened but as Lola said it wouldn't hurt to do another bd on Friday just in case, especially if your temps dont support o has happened :) and by all means j&d Fridays attempt if that makes you feel better but hopefully you won't need to worry about it as an attempt as fx we see a nice rise Thursday or Friday morning!

LMSM my only worry would be you end up with a pos opk tomorrow after bding tonight then end up with 4 attempts in a row again. From memory last cycle your pos opk was clearly positive and you oed the next day. Being so close I would hold off and wait to do 3 attempts at pos opk which is hopefully tomorrow (or today??!! You haven't tested yet I just realised - its only 12!!)
Sent from my GT-I9305T using Tapatalk
LMSM ok I reread your post and it answered my opk question 😂 lets see how your 2pm opk looks but if its close but not positive do not bd tonight!!!!! Keep those legs together missy and wait for Thursdays opk 😂😂

Maximbella - I’m leaning towards baby dancing late tonight. I will possibly baby dance on Friday..
Pbn3 I will definitely do that and just hope it all works in our favor. So bd tonight for sure. How will I know when I temp on Thursday and Friday ? What should I look for to know? I’m very excited! Thank you for all your wonderful advise!
Lolabelle - Am I suppose to J&D at tonights attempt? Or only if the attempt is on Friday ? Lots to think about
LMSM - Yes and Yes :) I will definitely attempt tonight.
Nacire I wouldn't j&d tonight's attempt as it can really cut odds of conception and if you've been on the le diet for awhile already you may find it harder to stick to as time goes on. What you're looking for on Thursday/Friday is a spike in temp. If it spikes Thursday, we want to see it stay around the same or higher Friday :) Don't worry I'll be stalking your chart and will give you a daily run down of what I think whether you want one or not 😂😂😂😂😂
Sent from my GT-I9305T using Tapatalk
Nacire-I wouldn't J&D tonight since it's your one attempt. Friday is a backup just in case you haven't seen a temp rise by then. If you BD tonight & see a temp rise on Thurs or Fri, then you know you've already o'ed. In my case, I think I caught my rise early in the AM on it's way up. I was thinking I O'd but still got another attempt in anyway 3 days later. You can J&D at that time to ease your mind adding an attempt 3 days later, but likely it won't make a difference or at least that's what I'm thinking...
Pbn3 - Okay so make my late night attempt, and don't J&D tonight. But if I do make my second attempt on Friday I should J&D that day? I have been very persistent on the LE, but since hubs came home I have allowed meat here and there. I know there aren't any forbidden foods just limits. I'm sure I haven't went over any limits. I still stick to fasting between Lunch and dinner, and no snacking, coffee, and wine at night. My hubs got hurt a month ago and has been taking Robaxin, and Tylenol with Codine, and Ibuprofen 800 mgs. Should I worry with this? I think I read it sways in my favor but trying to get any worries out..
LMSM-sounds like you're super close! Can't wait to see your next test in approx an hour, although it's getting late here, will try to check in!!
Interesting to read that many of you were really sick with your girls! Not saying I want terrible MS, but if it means a girl for me then I can deal lol.
Lolabelle - I completely agree with everything your recommending . These are the steps I will take,so fingers crossed :)
Nacire I have no idea about if or how painkillers and anti inflammatories affect a sway when taken by dh... I will ask this though - would you skip a cycle just because of one small thing that isn't proven to sway either way??? I definitely would not be worried about it, stressing about these little things is totally normal now you've arrived at 'go time' but try as hard as you can to relax, kick back and enjoy :)
Lola answered exactly as I would have :) the j&d on friday was only for your peace of mind. If you have a temp spike indicating o likely happened either wednesday or thursday then a bd on friday won't even matter. I wouldn't j&d on friday however if there has been no sustained rise. Figured we'd just cross that bridge if it comes :)

Nacire-sounds like you have your plan ready to go & let me tell you, pbn is awesome at reading charts, so you're in the right place [emoji4]Yayyy for GO TIME!! [emoji175]
Pbn3 I think I'm just making myself crazy lol I won't skip this cycle. I will have my attempt tonight and just relax, kick back and enjoy :)
Perfect nacire 👌

Okay that's what I thought but how do you know what % it is? I have a mounds candy bar every day, but only 1. I checked calories, fat and carbs and it's almost equal to dove dark chocolate promises of that makes sense.. same fat but slightly more calories and carbs. I understand, I was born with a sweet tooth!Quote:

Oh no that doesn't sound crazy at all, I totally understand and I love it! I feel the same way, wanting my kids close in age that is. I dont want my girls who are bound at the hip to exclude the 3rd child because they don't want to play with a baby. I think thats a great way for blue swayers who already have 1+ girls to view a failed sway too! Good luck!! :)Quote:

Looking very likely tomorrow will be a pos opk! I thought it was unknown whether dh being sick or not actually sways? I can understand illness may sway pink for the women as its a less hospitable environment as such but the male being sick? Unless there's proof/study that shows their sperm is of lesser quality somehow when ill? Can you post me a link to your thread so I can see what she said as I'm really interested to see 😀 You bded a couple days ago so his swimmers would be nice and fresh in that sense! How are you feeling about things? Do you feel you should hold off as well? How is dh feeling now?
