I don't think OutofTheBlue is checking in here much right now, so she may not see this. I've been chatting with her, and so far this month has gone great for her. She didn't have such a delayed ovulation this time, and her temps look great. I'm praying she gets a BFP sometime in the next few days :pray:.
I know! I was hoping when she came back she would see we were thinking of her :)
Glad to hear she's doing well, and I figured now that its March she'd be here soon.
I do feel like it was a boy. I had this huge gut feeling the other day that I was pregnant and it was a boy. I lay awake wondering how, and maybe it was all my attempt. Not sure what to believe. I do now that less attempts means less sperm. And fr was so hard for us because dh does not take care of himself.
I feel like I might change our plan -- I am 29 (30 in August) and dh is 36 (37 in April).
I was thinking to dtd on +opk night after abstaining. Then have him release in the morning and afternoon and then dtd again the following evening using his 3rd release.
We conceived all our boys doing multiple multiple attempts. Maybe that is why I thought boy for sure.
Maybe thinking that way will help you move forward for next month (as bad as that sounds, but it would help me). Perhaps start a thread would be good to get Atomic to weigh in. I know she will recommend against abstain due to DH age, although sounding like you will do compressed frequent. Have you read the thread on compressed frequent. Take a look at how many days are needed to be considered compressed frequent.
The multiple attempts is not what would make baby a boy. You know that diet is most important and with your 3 boys you ahd a boy diet naturally. You've said that a few times! I'm thinking compressed frequent might be good middle ground then you can add attempts if you want as you go without worrying that he has not released enough. I want you to get a plan quick, so that you can then sit back, relax and not raise T.
thanks, ya I know. I just feel like I was so strict on the diet and still a boy?? I obviously don't know for sure, but in my gut I felt it was even before the bleeding started.
I just don't know anymore, I really don't know what to do.
PFP, I think I would still get my doc to run some blood work just to see what you HCG level was. It could be over 5 and you know for sure if you were pregnant then. I would also have them check my progesterone to see if it was low too, because like me you may need supplements while TTC.
I am so sorry for your loss. I know how much this is hurting you from my own mc, and will continue to pray for you and your DH as I am sure he is a devastated as you are.
Thanks KD. I wish he was. I think he has an emotional chip missing. He does not get as emotionally invested in any of this like I do.
Men don't like to show their emotions sometimes and I am sure he sees how much your are hurting that he does not want to make it worse. I believe he feels just as bad as you do about it.Quote:

I need help, ladies! I'm still stuck on if we want to abstain or FR.. DH is 25. any suggestions? I'm a little scared about abstain.. only bc of the low quality sperm.. I know FR is less but higher quality.
