Guide to Replens and RepHresh (Part 1)

I don't know when you ovulated, all I can say is that I think you DID. We can't pin down O to the day with certainty.

I think I explained this before but bright red blood is likely from the cervix. This isn't for sure and it doesn't mean you didn't ovulate. Because O spotting can take time to find its way out it's often brownish or pink. The reason red bleeding coincides with ovulation is because your cervix is very soft then and can be easily injured, even by everyday things like having bowel movements or checking CM.

I think you guys had a great sway and are in with as good a chance as anyone! No guarantee of course but I"d be happy with it!

Many of us with all boys are on a blue friendly diet (lots of healthy/fortified food, eating regularly, eating meat and lots of animal fat) without being on the full HE Diet. Very few people swayed with their first few kids!

Yes, you need 3 days of high temps to confirm ovulation has occurred, but even then we just can't know for sure what specific day. This is because temps can be lower than expected, OR higher than expected on any given day, and it's only when we see the overall pattern we know for sure.

Every month that passes people even with perfectly timed attempts have about 20-30% chance average of BFP so that is what I'd count on. I know it seems lower than you might expect but that's just how it works, unfortunately, even with people trying like bunnies.

I was thinking to start making hubby release every 2-3 days , 1 month prior to our attempt so that his body triggers to produce more and fresher sperm. What do you think about this strategy?

It does not matter how long between the last release and first attempt is. It takes 7-10 days of DAILY release, every day, skipping no days at all, for sperm count to be depleted and sway pink (and even then, that tactic does not work anyway!)

Have your husband start doing regular release every 2-4 days right away :agree: A month before is good, 2 months is even better!! He will start making more sperm in this pattern, and then by the time it's time to attempt he will be making bigger and better batches for you guys to have your attempts with. :)

I would like to see you start temping earlier next month if at all possible (of course hopefully we won't need to!) It makes it easier for me to detect the pattern that way.
