Jumping in quick! Bfp [emoji120][emoji120]
So I’m pretty sure af has arrived 3 days early!! The le diet really does mess with your cycles! I was 3 days late last cycle! :sad:
Would you ladies keep trying one attempt or switch to E4D this month? Does one sway more pink than the other.
This was the weirdest cycle I've had yet and I don't know if I should keep up with testing for ovulation, or switch to E4D
Wishing all you ladies a BFP in the new year!

Eighme I’m going for e4d next month I’ve tried 1 attempt for 3 Months now!
Thanks, Girlsway! December was my first month TTC but it's far more stressful trying to track ovulation than I thoughtQuote:

Girlsway so af arrived?:(
E4d would be a good choice for you eighme if you find tracking stressful [emoji3] Some people find tracking stressful, others find it stressful not 'knowing' so go with whatever you find more relaxing xoQuote:

Girlswaylondon nooooo!!!! [emoji24][emoji24] Is it increased spotting or flowing now?

Pbn3 what do u think add big O after attempt, it could help conception?
Actually it’s completley Stopped?!?
I don’t want to get my hopes up because I do spot a day before af since le diet but never this early! It could be IB but I’m doubtful!!
My temp hasn’t dropped yet not sure how reliable that is?!
Thanks, Pbn! Would you say this sways one way more than the other or about equal for pink?Quote:

Ladies, I know there’s a whole thread on what blue swaying mums did/do. Just curious though, in terms of bd, any routine? Was bd liberal or did you focus on when you oed?
Btw,only see baby boys lately. Saw a mother to 3 boys today at the shopping till/counter and just smiled wondering if she was swaying without knowing. Is it the same for pink swayers? You only see baby girls and little girls everywhere?
Pbn3 am I doing a lazy e2d/e3d with a 3-o,1-o, o and o+1? [emoji846]
It's said to help as the contractions help move the swimmers up faster but if its not possible then laying with elevated hips for half hour may help as well. I used to also flip over onto knees and elbows a couple times from this (so basically a laying down downward dog yoga position [emoji23]) just to be sure it all went up and little to none would come out afterwards [emoji6]Quote:

Girlswaylondon we don't know if its normal for your temp to drop pre or post af so hard to say, though I would say more than not do see a drop in temp whether a steady decline over a few days or a sudden drop day or two before. That's a good sign the spotting has stopped [emoji3] the waiting game continues [emoji102]

Well as far as I know the recommendation for swaying pink is to start with one unprotected bd at pos opk. This sways the most pink as its the most 'hostile/hardest' way to try and fall pregnant. One unprotected attempt has low conception odds which is the whole idea behind it swaying pink. However if this doesn't work the first few cycles then its time to switch to e4d which still gives you one attempt in fertile window but also introduces sperm to the body on a semi regular basis so its not seeked out and destroyed so effeciently. That's my understanding anyway [emoji3] Also there's two versions of e4d as you're aware. There's eg. Cd6, cd10, cd14 etc or cd6, cd9, cd12 etc. I prefer the latter and used to call it e3d but dont anymore to avoid confusion. You could try the longer e4d first then the shorter (entirely up to you) and if you're still not conceiving move onto e4d (longer version) plus an extra attempt at pos opk (dtd the day after pos opk if it falls on an already scheduled e4d day). Yes this is two attempts by then but if its taking this long then its time to increase conception odds anyway most people will be well and truly over the le diet by then. My personal preference is the short version of e4d as to me it increases odds of conception whilst still realistically only one attempt. Not at all saying its the best to move onto just that it's my preference [emoji3] If you're ever on the fence I always recommend creating a thread to get atomics opinion. Let her know how long you've been trying and what you've done attempt wise to date and ask what she believes is best to try next.Quote:

Filzma no! You are not 'lazy' at all! That is hard enough to do already! Honestly it comes down to what you believe is possible to achieve. The ideal end result is 2+ attempts. There's alot of dh's that simply cant perform 3 x bd's in the space of 24 hours, it really is a tall order! If you can achieve bding every 48 - 72 hours in the lead up to pos opk then manage a PM bd that night of pos opk and an AM bd the following morning then you're already there attempt wise and IF by chance you get that 3rd PM attempt in then great but otherwise you've achieved multiple attempts in any case. The majority of people will o day after pos opk anyway so realistically in many cases only 2 of those 3 attempts will count anyway, it's more to cover a later o than anything as far as I know. I'm pretty sure the key is at least two attempts however that is achieved :) Again though its always a good idea to run it past atomic in a thread you create for her opinion as it gives people confidence in their decision [emoji3]

Pbn3 lol, you’re the best! Wow you’re really good. I liked what you said about our body getting used to sperm. It makes sense, after bding protected for a while I guess the body perceives sperm as an invader. So maybe that explains why ttc may take a couple months.Quote:

We started with 1 attempt at pos opk, this past month we did cd 8, but then had an early positive opk on 10, another positive on 11 so we bd that day too just in case. We plan to do again tonight (cd15) to cover in case it was late. So it was 3 day and then 4 day between attempts. Hoping one catches this month since this is our 6th month ttc baby #3. First baby was in like 4 months, second was first month trying, and now this one is not going as easily and I had an chemical mc our first month trying which I've never had one before. So not sure what is going on with my body this go around. I'm swaying girl, but pretty sure my diet is out the window besides skipping breakfast and coffee/alcohol. Its low but with all the holidays ive eaten more food and for sure more sweets! So who knows what the gender will be if I ever get pregnant.
Mwilson I've seen several ladies get pos opks that early in their cycle only to not ovulate (confirmed by temping) and go on to get another pos opk (sometimes more) a few days later or even a week or so later. (Filzma - sound familiar [emoji6]) Can you do an opk today just out of curiosity? I'd keep testing in future up to cd17 at least with a 27 -29 day cycle unless of course you are 110% positive you've oed. Alternatively maybe try and stick to e4d next cycle (the every 72 hour version) from say cd7 or 8 through to cd17/18? Let us know how the opk goes and you never know todays attempt very well may count! Or if you have oed then your cd11 attempt is well timed.
Don't give up hope [emoji173] It will happen, and at the end of the day you have zero chance of a girl if you cant get pregnant. A relaxed LE diet is better than none at all. Hang in there!!

No heavy flow yet, god knows what’s going on!
I was coming on to see if you've posted girlswaylondon. So have you had continued spotting? Your temp has gone up slightly which is good [emoji3]
Sent from my SM-G900I using Tapatalk
Lol pbn3 that sure does familiar! Had a pos opk from cd8 through to cd22. Some days darker than others. Mwilson keep temping that’s the only way to know for sure if you’ve oed.
Girlswaylondon I hope this is your month!! [emoji120]bfp[emoji120]bfp
No spotting at all this morning, it was very minimal yesterday but was pink/red! BFN this morning though, kind of just glad my LP didn’t shorten!Quote:

Pbn im spotting again! I’m really expecting af any minute! It’s so confusing!
In that case hold off for a couple days and see what happens... you're 11dpo so you'll know soon enough whether the witch is coming or not [emoji17]

Annnnnd the spotting has stopped again, I feel like my cycle is purposely playing tricks on me at this rate lol!
How annoying girlsway! Hope it decides either way for you so you aren't in limbo much longer.

Thanks, mummy! Are you from the uk too?
Mummy2boys and GirlswayHGmama will you both be getting another attempt in?
Girlswaylondon when you are spotting is it persistent or just once or twice when you wipe? Confusing indeed! Hopefully tomorrows temp will shed more light!

Didn’t do an opk yesterday, forgot. But did one today and negative.Quote:
