Yea, I did opks and all. Gosh, I'm trying to remember what I took when on Clomid....I know a prenatal and fish oil, probably my green supplements (I drink a wheatgrass and acai shake and a super greens supplement for general health and fertility)....but I know I didn't take any hormonal supps for sure. Its those that you want to stay away from because the Clomid is altering your homones as it is, and the hormonal supps can interfere with that process. Personally, I wouldn't take many supps except general health ones like I did. I had a thread back when I took it the first time because I was concerned about the same thing: http://genderdreaming.com/forum/show...Clomid-No-no-sQuote:

I'll tell you a trick about getting him to release but not in you before your attempt: blow jobs. DH's will gladly take one of those, and that way he is releasing without you guys having to do it and deal with the condom/no condom issue. But on the other hand, you really do want to try to get pg as soon as you can on the Clomid. You may want to dtd every other day. On this site, we don't really believe in timing much because there are so many studies (NOT on IG!) that debunk timing as a factor. And if you look at the timing for boys or what boy moms did threads, they rarely if ever had a one time shot like you were supposed to on IG. FF will also kill the timing belief for you also, because if you do a chart search for "pregnant with boy," you will find that the majority of them dtd every day or every other day. So, try not to worry about it too much. I would go with dtd every other day on Clomid for sure. I would take opks like crazy and try to see if you have a fade-in pattern until then that indicates when it is coming. Like, I know when mine are almost positive, that they will be super positive the next day, and then I will ovulate the day after that. So we dtd on the almost positive day, skip the super positive day, and then dtd on O day.
