    Anyone use SMEP and get a girl?

    Im entertaining the idea of SMEP. Not totally on board but exploring my options...

    Im at that point where after 10 cycles of BFN.. perhaps i need to try, at the very least, a variation of SMEP. The lady behind it got two daughters doing it after all didnt she?

    Im slightly apprehensive due to it being more 'blue' hence perhaps a laid back SMEP approach might be a good starting point.. for example leave off the next day / last BD after the 3 in a row.. (or something like that)..

    We cant seem to get pregnant again on just one attempt like last year (mc), so although it was possible for us then, its not working now.. We have also done the E4d method and no luck there either.. Im still sure this can happen for us at 40 and im ok to keep going just thinking of other things we could try other than eod which we did to get our boys..

    We have not done e3d nor have we done e4d plus one at positive opk - purely because last 2 cycles we had BD day before a positive so left it at that..

    Would love to know what (those who have ttc a long time) are doing to ttc in the BD department?!

    Happy with my crew and no more are due xx

    Hi I had no advice but I’ve wondered this too myself! I’m guessing it’s definetly possible if you have strong other pink points so I’ll be following this post with curiosity

    Just came across this answer when someone asked if smep worked for them on another site


    Yes!I used this when we conceived our DD and have just got a bfp first month following it this time around.I also used preseed.
    Was pretty much exactly like you and have had pretty much instant success with it both times,best of luck!!


    DD! So it was a girl

    I think it would be better to try E4D plus one attempt at pos OPK. If that doesn't do it then E3D then if you still don't succeed, SMEP as a last resort. Of course Atomic is the best person to weigh in on this. This is just what I would personally do. I know for you age is a factor and you may actually be better off doing whatever you can to conceive. How is your diet? Sometimes women aren't getting pregnant because they're not eating enough.

    After 10 cycles yes it is time to do SMEP. Concur fully.

    Now, would I have ~liked~ you to have done e4d plus one more first, yes, a couple months ago at the least. But you didn't and I want you on SMEP now given your age and the amount of time we've been at this.

    Ordinarly I'd say this but at 40 and with 10 months TTC behind us we need to pull out the stops now.

    It's time.

    sorry to crash this post, but atomic when would you recommend to start e4d + pos opk? Only been doing one attempt for 2 Months so I wouldn’t even think about it yet but just wondered when you would usually say?

    Any time really at your discretion. Most people switch over to this after 3-6mo of not getting a BFP. I started out doing this from the get go as my DH wasn’t keen on having a 4th child yet. I had to make sure he would keep doing what we were doing, if you know what I mean [emoji6]!
