Clear blue fertility monitor

I have a question lady's; i reed that my chances to a boy higher are if we have sex 1day or on the day of ovulation and for a girl a copple of days early than ovuletion, so if this correct and you do a ovulationtest than is the chance for a boy larger, is that possible??

S&D, shettles timing has been proven wrong and discredited. It seems women are doing better with diet and lifestyle vs timing.

Oké thank you!... What do you meen with lifestyle?

Like exercise, stress, hormone levels, etc.

I am confused (and I'm sure I can't be the only one) by the statement here though......I'm sure you don't mean 90% swaying pink with FR end up with boys, right? Do you mean, rather, that doing FR doesn't guarantee girl 90% of the time? (As in, frequency isn't a huge sway factor.)

Yes, that was a TYPO, I'm so sorry. Several children were rioting while I wrote that.

Someone had posted a thread claiming that 90% of all failed sways were FR and so people now think that FR makes boys 90% of the time and all kinds of stuff. It's NOT true.

No, unfortunately not.

OPk can sometimes have a fade in the day or two before ovulation, but are less reliable than CBFM in my opinion

In terms of how many times to BD - more attempts in fertile window = better odds of conception, but fewer attempts may be "pinker"...the problem is that when we sway pink, we do so much to kill off sperm that the majority of the people have to do several attempts just to get pg at all.

It is like the Price is Right - you want to do as much as you can to reduce sperm numbers for your sway, without going "over" and killing off all the sperm.

Just hope I don't do anything to minimize my chances of sway for a boy..

afy, for blue swayers I want you to have 3-5 attempts after that pos OPK (or just before, if you get a good fade in) in addition to an otherwise good blue sway.

For pink swayers, you can start off with just one attempt at pos OPK if you want to see if you can get pg that way WITH an otherwise good pink sway. Most people will not be able to get pg with a good sway and only one attempt, so you can either add attempts, drop sway tactics (EXCEPT diet), or BOTH drop sway tactics and add attempts.

AS with the CBFM it doesn't show fade in but it shows high fertility day is this the best time to try an BD if we are wanting to do it a day before ovulation

Not quite. The CBFM shows you high fertility days (indicated elevated estrogen) and two Peak fertility days (indicating LH surge). Your best chances are to BD on the Peak fertility days. The BEST day, if you are doing a single attempt, is to BD on the FIRST Peak day. Not the second.
