I have always drunk tons of milk, ate tons of dairy and I have 4 boys.

I would only add in milk IF you are coming in under your totals for cals, protein, always use skim dairy, and sodium and potassium.

Well I have dropped a couple of pounds this week from diet, started AF, so I am sure may have a little water weight right now especially with all the CL.
I think my husband and I may just go for it after AF, just figuring out timing - I know timing has been said not an issue, but my head is spinning. I think ultimately will DTD a couple days before ) and maybe right after O...

Thank you for all your info & advice!!

Good luck Sosa!

Thank you Atomic! I think I have decided on a cut off, just to put my my mind at ease! I started AF on the 4th and should have +OPK on the 20th, so does anyone know if that means the 17th or 18th??

???not entirely sure what you'e asking but I would BD on the 18th (maybe on the 19th!!). BD on the 17th for O on CD 21 will not get you pg.

Thanks Atomic I just posted a ? a few min. ago - sorry.

This makes sense! I should have + OPK stick on the 20th and I want to do a 3 day cutoff, I think - or 2?? But should I do 3 I was confused and didn't know if that 3 day cut off means 17th or 18th.
But your response makes sense, I BD on day 17, get a +OPK and the 20th and should O on 21st...

Yes, to do a cutoff you have to be able to predict the future a little bit and sometimes it doesn't always work out as we would like!

I suggest that you to BD on CD 18, not 17, to O on the 21st. CD 17 is too far out to get you pg especially if you're doing other things to sway.

THANK YOU!! Will do - makes sense! Math and figureing out all this stuff is not my fortay! Just keeping fingers crossed and holding breath the entire ride!
