frequency of BD for pink and blue

[atomic sagebrush]

That Shettles boy timing has really cut odds of conception for people so I would start trying sooner than you think you "should" and keep going even after you think you've ovulated in the every other day pattern.

my cycle went slightly haywire.. caught off guard when I got low in cb digital advanced on CD 9 and straight to peak on CD 10. So we BD CD 10, 11 and 12. Based on my BBT chart, looks like I O'ed on CD 11.

I have to trust my CM better. I actually got some ewcm on CD 8 but hubby was tired and didn't wanna BD. Hope we BD enough fingers crossed

[atomic sagebrush]

Fingers and toes crossed too!

I know I am paranoid. But in case this cycle doesn't work. What should I do to up my chances? hehe

Everything in the blue sway plan is designed to boost chances of conception. I think that the problem has been the Shettles timing and once that is gone I fully expect you to get pregnant quickly.

The ONLY concern I have is that sometimes when people have been on blue sway diets a long time they can end up giving themselves a kind of mild PCOS but as long as your cycle is fairly regular (ovulating early is fine, I'm talking about really long cycles developing suddenly or super short LP) I don't think that's what we are dealing with here.

Hi Atomic, I’m ttc Pink, have 3ds I’ve ov earlier than I was expecting but I haven’t exercised for at least 2 weeks, I’m thinking to skip this month and get back to my exercising, you’ve given me great advice previously about diet and the one attempt might be a good option for us. I got the solid smiley face this morning on my opk while yesterday was a blank circle, my Lh surge missed the flashing smile stage?! Would this be right to skip having not managed exercising? If the opk does the same next month should we dtd at +opk in peak stage?

Thanks atomic. Emotionally unstable as we have been trying for so long. Not sure if we should see the doc again just to check what's going on.

I guess we have to try to BD earlier to get a baby.

My LP is always around 13 or 14 days. I think that's pretty standard?

Agh sorry only just now seeing this - if you had already been dieting for 12 weeks I would probably have had you go ahead and try even after 2 weeks off on diet. But it's totally up to you - if you'll regret it forever if you try and get an opposite, probably better to wait, but remember that for all we know this is a great month for a girl for you and next month may be worse! Follow your heart on this!

Yep 13-14 day LP is just right.

I suspect that once Shettles goes on his way we will be looking at a lovely positive test very soon. If you think it may help to see the doc, by all means, but I don't see anything that would indicate this is a necessity.

Thanks Atomic.... I am just so lost in what to do.. I personally think there should be nothing wrong given that I got pregnant twice before but after trying so long with no news, it just makes you wonder. I think I have to do BD way way more. Perhaps start from CD 7, 9, 11,12,13 depending on the positive OPK. What do you think? Or should i just BD 5 days straight? from CD 9 till 13?
