Ok so I have no idea. My gut tells me there is no way I am o-ing this early(cd11), but who know's.
My dh came home last night and we just dtd at 11pm w/ no sylk (I had used a full app. of rephresh at 3pm yesterday) and I jumped and dumped 1 minutes after. I took my temp. this morning and it went down nearly .4 degrees! Since cd1 I have been 97.75-97.82 everyday. Yesterday I was 97.88 and this morning I was 97.51. So there was a dip down and we dtd again this morning with Sylk (my dh hates the lube and said no more, so I am just using rephresh from now on). I did not j&d, just laid there for 20 minutes before getting up.
And get this: I took the opk yesterday at 5:30 and -. Then I took another at 10pm and it was negative but when I took the stick out (its digital smiley) the blue dye was all smeared on the test screen. Then when I woke I took another before we dtd because my temp went low and I thought maybe I would get a + cause my cm is still really watery with a little stretch, and the f*#^ing thing showed the "book" symbol on the screen. Meaning the base is broken and do not use anymore test stripes with this tester. Are you kidding me??? Now I can't take any of those negative reading for real b/c the thing is broken. I have been using these for months, no problem. The one time it counts - the crap thing breaks on me. You can't make this up.
So now I can't rely on opk's. WTF! Who knows now when I am o-ing. I will stay ontop of my cm and buy another digital today to keep testing just in case I have not o'ed yet. I don't wanna stress about it -- what can I do? My dh is not sleeping in NYC tonight, he is driving home. So we are just going to dtd again tonight and every night until my temps and cm confirm ovulation is over. I don't want to assume this is o and stop bd-ing in a day or two and then potentially miss o-ing early next week if this was not o. And I don't want to not dtd now when this very well could be o.
So, I am just going to dtd straight thru every night. I don't see how I have any other option because I do not want to miss out on trying this month. My only concern -- he has only been fr-ing for 6 days straight (from cd4-10) before we began to dtd last night. Is that terrible? Already this am tho he is saying its getting hard. I'm thinking good, that means low testosterone.
Do you all think all this bd-ing is ruining my sway? I am soooo strict on the diet and have been for 8 weeks. I am using rephresh, taking saw palmetto and zyrtec. Dh has been having no meat for 8 weeks and taking cranberry daily and LR 1-2xday. Though I have to say that the cranberry and diet is not bringing his ph down one bit.
Anyway, do you think I am still doing a strong sway even though we are bd-ing 1-2xdaily for a full week??
This is not how I envisioned it -- what can I do but go with it.
