Sounds good to me. My boys were conceived with every 2 days and on O. Every day was too much pressure for DH.Quote:

Congrats sc1411!!
Agh.. I'm waiting to O, was expecting it in the next 4-5 days but now I am sick with a cold! I hope its not going to delay O by too much. Its the same cold DH had last week and I was trying to avoid catching it from him but it hit me exactly a week later. I would normally dose up on Vitamin C but I'm guessing that is a big no-no with my pink sway?
Being sick around O seems to sway pink!!Quote:

Heavy cramping a week before AF due. This is weird!! I never cramp this hard and certainly not this early.
Congrats sc1411! How awesome!!

Could possibly be implantation. I had that with my first pregnancy. Fx for youQuote:

CONGRATS SC1411!!!! That is lovely!
TM29- Fantastic BDing pattern for a boy!!!
CD1 for me. Planning on getting really drunk in the coming days and praying for a cycle where I ovulate before CD40! I've pretty much given up on the diet at this point. I'm still so sick that my maternal condition must be absolute crap. I still have my ear infection and my boys actually reinfected me with their sickness and now my jaw and sinuses are also infected and I am on antibiotics again. I'm still only eating 1-2 meals a day but I'm no longer veggie and I don't count totals of anything. At this point it has been 4 months since the miscarriage and I'm just over it all. It has never taken me this long to get pregnant and I'm sick of TTC. I'm trying to just let go and enjoy life and that isn't possible if I get too wrapped up in the sway. I admire all of you who can do a strict diet for months on end but I definitely can't be a good happy wife and mother, TTC for months and months, and do a strict diet. It just isn't in me. Thankfully I am totally OK with another boy- if I can just get pregnant again!
sc1411 yay :) congratulations!!
I see two lines there :)
Junie I so completely understand how you're feeling. I have been in tears so so many times. It is extra extra awful swaying after a loss when your cycle is crazy too - just how it was for me. I really get it. Hugs, hugs. Definitely have a few drinks - that sounds like a great idea and you're even allowed to do it. Maybe your hormones could do with a tiny boost from some meat and a few more cals - hopefully the illness - god it sounds TERRIBLE - will take care of maternal condition for you. I'm so sorry it has been this hard for you. Brings a tear to my eye.
Hugs to you Junie!!
Sorry to hear it's been such a rough time for you Junie. You certainly deserve a few drinks and cheats! Hugs sweetie xxx

Sorry junie.treat yourself x
Thanks ladies! I'm giving myself one day to wallow, and then I am moving on. Honestly a January baby would be great and being negative won't help me either. There isn't any reason why we won't all get nice BFPS this cycle! I'm just going to try and focus on other things- and like you say TM29- at least I am allowed to drink on the girl diet LOL :D :D
So sorry junie!!

Congrats, sc1411! That's not a squinter, I see it!
tm29, sounds like great timing! FX this is it!
HealthyGirl, I think I read in the articles that a long hold like that sways pink, but people usually don't opt for that route since it is hard for most to go so long.
Junie - *HUGS* Please go off the diet for a bit for your sanity and health. Take a cheat day, a cheat week, whatever you need. As far as getting pregnant, I am so with you. I am way beyond how long it took us before. I'm in much better health now, so I don't understand why it's taking so long. I just have to trust God's timing. This little soul will show up when it's ready to come. Have you tried acupuncture? Or getting a massage? Please do something nice for yourself! Hope you get well soon <3
Sage- Thanks so much for your kind words. I can only imagine how you feel as I know you have been patient far longer then I! I'm going to try soy isoflavones this cycle, just to see if that helps push O forward, I figure at this point it can't make my cycles worse :) I also don't understand how you have not gotten pregnant yet- you are so healthy and your timing is great! Maybe your little boy just wanted to come in 2016 :D I hope you get a nice BFP in a few weeks!!
Junie- my goodness do you ever need a break! I think it is wise to add in small amounts of meat to give yourself some extra nutrients- you need them at this point! I think your maternal condition may be too low! I think you'll be fine!
Sage- I agree with Junie, your little man will come to you soon!
I'm rooting for all of you ladies and Xing everything!

Sorry to hear you are feeling this way Junie. .Take care of yourself.

Junie you have done so so well to keep going after your mc and while you've been ill and with two kids to look after! Maybe you could have some more cals without upping your nutrients too much. You have come SO far!
I have set myself up for a massive disappointment if I don't get pg this cycle. It's my first o since the mc last December so I know I'd be very lucky to catch it. But I am a wild wild optimist despite all the evidence! Poor DH is exhausted - and it isn't as wonderful as it sounds having as much sex as you can in a four day period! Well, here we go. One last attempt tomorrow if possible - but here I am in the dreaded 2ww. I wish I could just wake up 14dpo.
I need some advice.
We bd Sunday night ( pos opk, clear blue gave me smiley and cb motor gave me a peak fertility 12 hours later).
I'm doubting whether my attempt worked since my husband claims he abstained for a WHOLE MONTH.
My dilemma is whether to bd tonight. Clear blue monitor gave me another peak day today ( last peak day). Opk turned pos after 8 min ( not like it turned pos super fast last 2 days) and clear blue digital DOESNT give me smiley face.
I'm pretty sure I ovulated very recently. Would you ladies attempt again tonight ( after bd Sunday night)????
I feel my first attempt isn't successful with the long abstain.
Please advise since I need to give a heads up to my husband.
Thanks

I'm a blue swayer, but I think if you have not ovulated or just recently ovulated you will have two attempts in the window. Hopefully, someone else can help, but the egg might stick around 12-24 hours after O, you will never know. GL!
I'm also a blue swayer. From what I understand, there are quite a few pink swayers who add attempts after not getting pg for a few cycles, aren't there? Your husband will definitely have affected his sperm count abstaining that long - right? Could you do a really shallow, no fun for you, jump right up and run around kind of BD? That would be my way of trying to have it both ways. That way you'd give yourself just a few more swimmers, but not too many...
But there may be expert pink swayers who strongly disagree.
Healthy-I would wait until tomorrow. Then, that's 3 days instead of 2

I would wait until tomorrow. If you must, you can BD tonight. Just know that it lowers your chance of pink by another 10% down from 70% to 60%. When swaying pink, we NEED all the help we can get!!
Remember, people get pregnant all the time from one attempt with a long abstain. It is your choice to make.
If you did already ovulate, it could be a mute point anyway and likely to not make any difference. On the off chance you haven't though, you could in fact be swaying blue with a new batch of super, duper swimmers.
GL!

Healthy girl, both my boys were conceived with lots and lots of BD. But according to what I've read from atomic, timing and how much BD you do is the least important when swaying. I'd say go for it, it increases your chances to get pregnant considering you have 12 to 24 hours to catch the egg after you ovulate.
Thanks xxforhubby.
I totally get what you are saying.
My only worry is the super freaking one month abstain he did.
I will definitely consider bd tomorrow or not even bd at all.
Thx

Seebeewife from what I know timing isn't important but how many times you bd in the fertile window is actually important.
I feel that ONE month old sperm isn't any good for my first attempt so I'm gonna go for it tonight ( It might be too late)At least I will feel better about my bfn once I get it.

Ok so I made a mistake with the whole ONE month thing.
He abstained since we bd last month which would put it at 21 days ( 3 weeks).

Healthy girl- that'll be great for swaying pink! I respectfully disagree about timing and frequency. My girls were both conceived when we dtd often and had a 1 day cutoff. All of my boys were from BDing every 3 days and always on O day. I think you did great! FX for you!!!
I went into the doctor as I've been struggling with UTis.. I held off hoping to avoid abx. But, ureka.. Keflex it is.
I also got them to dip my urine for pregnancy (may as well right?!;)) I'm 9dpo with a BFN :( now I'm discouraged!! I've just got that feeling that I'm not pregnant. Ugh.. This swaying business is exhausting. I'm feeling so much pressure since we are only going to ttc in May and June, then take a long break (due to me being a maid of honour and with my husbands job). I want a baby (girl) so badly. Thanks for listening to my vent. :(
HealthyGirl - 3 weeks shouldn't be too bad, better than a whole month abstain!
Hbuhs - 9 dto is still really early and also how sensitive are the tests that Drs have?
Purple- not sure, I didn't ask. But I'm assuming probably middle of the pack for sensitivity.
I'm out. She's here. Still confused as to why my body changed so much this cycle. Why did I cramp so much and so heavily and so early this cycle? It is so unlike my body. Should I get checked out?
Now she's gone. I'm so confused right now. Temp also dropped below coverline which made me sure I was out. Can anyone explain?
Maybe implantation bleeding? I would wait and see what the next 2-3 days bring and maybe test then.
FX and GL!!
