We had our attempt about 1.30am this morning I had a positive opk straight after and I had a positive clearblue this morning, I really was hoping for more of a cut off as both my boys were conceived on ovulation day, I ovulated 2 days early this Monty which never happens. Also I feel a bit rubbish as my diet wasnt great over xmas as we were staying with family and I havent been able to exercise.
Well, that timing with the OPK means you did have a cutoff of likely about 2 days so that's all good!
I think you likely did much better than you think! Good luck and pink dust headed your way!
Ah ok that makes me feel better, I actually keep reading that plenty of girls were conceived on ovulation day and lots pf boys with a cut off so hopefully be in for a chance, thank yoi very much and happy new year
Yep scientists have proven timing doesn't work, 50-50 boys and girls conceived every day of fertile window. Got my girl very near to O and 3 boys with cutoffs
Feel much better now thank you, just a shame about my diet as I was doing so well but unfortunately it's all out of my hands
I know it's hard to say for sure,but how important is the diet around ovulation as I was doing so well with the diet until xmas eve and then I went away for Christmas and well the diet went out the window really although I was very careful to have at least 12-14 between eating the eve before amd the following morning, I dtd a couple of days ago and I keep thinking I have completely ruined my sway
It is not important at all. We know it's not, because people on diet 2-4 weeks (even when they were very strict) got poor results compared to those on 12 weeks or more (even though most of them relaxed on diet over time.) It is no biggie at all, please don't worry about it.
That's good to know, thank you
I was just having a general read today, some say chocolate isnt good is this true? I was eating a lot of it I just craved it I was still losing weight
We originally started off thinking that nutrients in things like chocolate might sway. But over time we've learned it's really the big ticket things like calories, protein, and fat that sway (and the heavy fortification in heavily fortified foods like cereal, vitamins, power bars) and NOT the naturally occuring nutrients in things like chocolate, red wine, fruit/veg, that kind of thing.Quote:
