very low. sometimes even under 3.5 (probably from lime and vinigar)

I had a smiley OPK the night after my first attempt but no EWCM. Three days later, I felt "wet" and took another test and it was smiley. I think the second smiley is when I O'd. I DTD about 12 hours later and my cervix was low and firm.

We DTD on a Thursday night and then again on a Monday night. I found trying to get DH to perform on command the most stressful part.

• Baby asprin
• folic acid
• Antihistamine

DH Supplements

• Cranberry
• Sudafed

Any additional supplement info?

I used cranberry during the days around O. I know its not too safe though.

I only used clomid because I was going to do ericcson. I have no trouble conceiving and actually lost identical twins as part of a triplet pregnancy with my 2nd son.

Did you do anything with Ions?

hot showers

Moon Phase during conception?

New Moon

Did you use any Old Wives Tales?

wooden spoon with ribbon under the bed

Things that make me feel great about my sway:

I used way too much summer's eve vinigar douche before my attempt and probably way too much lime/water (inserted with tampon after first attempt and with medicine syringe after second attempt). I am shocked I am pregnant and hope it doesn't cause a MC.

Things that make me nervous about my sway:

see above

Things worth mentioning:

Thanks atomic!
DH smokes cigarettes and I sometimes had one, too (not anymore of course!) With past pregnancies, I used robitussin (first son) and preseed (second son) not knowing those swayed blue - I just knew they would help me get pregnant. I seem to conceive easy, but have a hard time with MC - I am considering progesterone cream.

Oh, and I did not get a postivie with the FRER 6 days sooner test until 9-10 DPO.

ITS 100% GIRL! I strongly believe PH and no mucus was key for me. I am very fertile and overdid it with the lime douche, vinegar douche, antihistamine Rephresh, Replens and AciJel. I tried to change my diet but in reality I was not as strict as I should have been. I did drink lots of CL. Let me know if you have any questions! THANKS ATOMIC!!
