M not an expert but ur pos opk is making me nervous :) if i was u i would dtd either late friday or early sat bcoz what if u ov by night today ?
Last month i got positive by 6 pm and by next morning abt 5 am my temp went high and ff detected ovulation ... i dont want to confuse u ...just wishing best for u hitmebaby ...
Good luckkkk..... xx
I get what you mean! It's a gamble right? If I do ovulate earlier - than my tues attempt it's maybe viable? I am very much leaning toward tonight and calling it. The logical side of my brain says this is ludicrous and if I want to get pg to just do it lol - but the person that has longed for a daughter her whole life keeps that "one attempt" idea pretty close to her heart.

So it turns out that I am actually ovulating today. We are in the 2ww for this cycle! :) DH thought I couldn't get preggers once the opk is positive and so he didn't pull out. Apparently I should have explained that the opposite is true but I didn't know that's what he thought. Lol! Sometimes I forget that I'm not talking to him about everything I talk about on here. Does anyone else do that? I also forget that he hasn't done all of the research I've done on swaying, so he tends to get frustrated when I act like he should know something even though I've never talked to him about it before. Ooops! :) I think he knows more than he let's on and he's just impatient. Maybe I shouldn't tell him so much about my cycle??

Well I guess now that June is here this thread is bouncing with baby hopes!
I am cd1 but not ready this mth. So this month I am going strict on everything then I will try next cycle until September. I get to sad trying for a long time (9 cycles with DS3). I am trying to leave out a lot but also take a lot of things away.
My cycles have been very short lately, about 21days instead of 28. But with clomid I go to about 30ish.
Diet is mostly Mexican Vegeterian. 4 snack sized meals a day from 10am-6pm. Drinking coffee in the am since my son wakes up at 6am. Also drinking 8oz of either Crystal Light or Diet Coke a few times a day.
I haven’t lost any weight recently but I am riding an exercise bike for 15-20mins about 3-4x’s a day… all my boys will allow at one time. I may try to add a few 1hr days now that DH has 3 day weekends. Many many years ago I used to race so I find bike riding very calming. Maybe I will pull my old bike out and take a few road days.
Going to take fiber, folic acid, cal/mag, and Clomid and that’s it. I am breastfeeding a 2 and ¾ year old, so I don’t want to take to much. Found out recently that DH has very low T but appearantly he was tested for it after DS1 was born and it was low then. He will be starting T-shot next week and the side affects are low-sperm count!
Recently I had a sad moment at a Walmart and had to buy a Strawberry outfit in… NB, 3mths, 6mths, 9mth, and 12mths. All the same but I could not pass since I have always been a strawberry nut. My kitchen is nothing but Strawberry items or red. I think I will put this under the center of the bed so DH feels it too! I will wait to make something with my special fabric, it hurts to much to do anything with it without knowing if I am having a girl.
Other things we are doing…
It is summer in Phoenix so it is hot, sort of! We have been having a wet year so it keeps cooling down. DH doesn’t even want to go swimming. But since he drives around all day I am hoping that will help heat up his swimmers.
Even though I know I would want to find out what we are having I am going to do my best and ignore it. I do not want anymore kids after this so I want to be surprised. Since all our boys have family names we will do the same for the next one. Not many choices for boys but we have 2 names at least. With each pregnancy we have picked a different girls name so this time I will put all girls names on the list. We will pick a name after it is born!
I am charting with an Ovucue but may also add other test just to make sure both match up. I may not plan DTD for certain days because of all the other things going on but I am hoping to try every 4 days but with clomid and DHs issues I wonder if I should just try everyday to get prego faster.
Welcome to the thread. Sounds like you've got a pretty good plan underway :) i too am on Clomid, and went in with every 4 days, but I don't want to "waste" the Clomid either, and kinda just want to be pg. Do OPKS Work for you? I think I'm going to do just one attempt at opk next cycle (if I don't catch an egg this cycle)

I did want to mention that in the last 5 years I have suffered from a sort of depression. I am trying to except the cause of it but it is difficult.
My mothers family believed that you have to have sons. Because of this my mother's sister abused me for over a year until my father took us back to Cali with him. The abuse was very traumatic and I even supressed it until I was 10. I still have nightmares to this day.
Growing up I always wanted sons, not because of their beliefs but because I was afraid I would abuse a daughter. After having my sweet ds1 I knew I could never hurt a little one. Then after ds2 "my boy" I felt maybe God didn't want me to have a girl, maybe he knew something that I didn't know. With ds3 I knew that even after not getting what I was hoping for and finding out his twin was a girl I felt that maybe it wasn't time. God did give me a glimmer of hope and a major heartbreak.
I want a girl for my mother-in-law to finally have her first girl and for my DH to have a little princess. But deep down inside I want the chance to love a lil girl!
