Number of attempts and time to pregnancy?
We decided we wanted a fourth last year. We TTC’ed for one month, did E4D and did not conceive. I went back on bcp due to an international trip. Due to Covid the trip was cancelled, so I went off bcp again on May 3. We did E4D that first cycle and did not conceive. I don’t think we had any success this cycle (I ovulated while tent camping with our kids, so no privacy). When we decide to go for another baby I get super impatient. How long should we do E4D before trying something else? Would it be more worthwhile to get an ovulation kit and try one attempt? I’ve read that sometimes waiting for LH surge to attempt can actually be too late, so that concerns me a bit.
Also, what are the stats on the SMEP? I’m guessing it sways boy? I’ve conceived all of my boys in 1-2 cycles so I’m annoyed that we’ve had three cycles of nothing. I’m almost 32 and husband is almost 36, should I be doing anything differently due to our ages? Thanks!
