I will be o'ing in 5-ish days and that'll be our first attempt, so not quite July but close enough. Good luck, ladies! I've always been a one hit wonderer when it comes to getting pregnant, so I'm hoping that'll be the case for me this time around, as well.

I have recently lost from 151 to 130 using the my fitness pal. Just keeping my calories at 1200. But I kinda just eat what I want and prob should've been eating more "girl friendly food". I'm still hoping the weight loss is to my advantage.

With my boys I did 3-4 attempts during fertile window. I'm thinking I will do one attempt at positive OPK. My positive is usually in the early morning and my hubby will be off work so hoping to BD right after positive. I just posted more details. I wish I knew how to link so you could look at it.

I have been on the LE diet for nearly 7 weeks. I am due to ovulate at the end of july so I will have been on the diet for 12 weeks by then. I have been doing 80 minutes of cardio daily and a few supps. Vitex, folate, fibre . I am aiming for a cut off this time of about 3 or 4 days with one attempt. I know my odds of conception are low but I want to try that for 2 cycles and move a bit closer each time. My husband is taking LR, Calcium and mag. plus cranberry. He is also having 1 large glass of soy milk each day. He has been wearing 2 pairs of jocks 24/7 lol!!!! He has not had red meat for about 2 months , No fish or eggs. I pretty much cook him vegetarian or chicken dishes sometimes pork too. I am really trying hard with my sway I cant do much more so if it doesn't work it just must not be meant to be.

Can I join you ladies? I'm going onto cycle 3. Have been doing the pcos LE (of sorts) for about 3 months now and lost about 14lb. Struggling with reducing meat at times but cut out red meat and eating more prawn based meals instead. I'm trying to exercise when I can but finding that a struggle so not doing it the recommended 6 days a week but aiming for 3-4 times for an hour.

The last 2 cycles I noticed I've had barely any ewcm at all and we dtd at positive opk. This month I'm planning on bd once the day before positive opk if I can guess it right as I'm sure I tend to O the day of positive opk so I'm thinking it might be better if the spermies are sat waiting for the egg. May try every 4 days. I'm not taking any supplements apart from folic acid now as baby aspirin was causing mid cycle spotting so I've decided to take it after ovulation every 3 days onwards.
I'm due to ovulate right at the end of the month around the 29th so will bd on 28th.

Pink dust to everyone!

Here's hoping July brings us good luck! This month will be my 5th time ttc, happens to land on my youngest ds birthday, July 4th! I will be switching from one attempt at + opk to that and every 4 days after as my cycles have been changing from the diet! Hope everyone sends us some pink dust!

I responded to this yesterday, but for some reason it didn't go through. Argh! My first attempt will be in 4-5 days depending on when I get my positive opk. Not quite July, but close enough. ;)

Boysboys, I'll be using Acijel personally. I don't believe in ph swaying, but I think if it'll help make it "harder" to get pregnant then that works for me. Good luck, ladies.

Gotcha! I struggled between aci gel and rephresh but I ended up buying rephresh. We shall see. I'm using sylk as lube I think. (Hubby HATES It) but he can suffer one time!haha
