Sora TTC a Boy Sway Attempt

[LMSM]

Fingers crossed ladies! When ttc it’s totally worth doing opks twice a day the surge can come and go very quickly so not show long on the opk so ...go catch that egg!

Haha but that's what I was doing, even thrice a day, hence why I was starting to worry a bit !

Well time has flown ! O should be here in a few days and I'm worried I did mistakes here and there ! The short heat wave made it hard to eat but I tried to stick with 5 meals a day. Still had a hard time eating meat each time and a real full meal during 3-4 days. Tried to get by on cereals, almonds, dairy and a bit of chicken + juices but couldn't swallow much before going to bed. I have to admit that sadly, this Saturday and Sunday were mostly water, juices and ice cream
Drank a lot of coconut water though, very refreshing for that kind of weather. Still managed to get the unprotected sex going every 2-3 days.

DH is very happy with his arginine/carnitine. I remember another male poster (was it archie ?) saying that he felt better down there with the supps (+one a day men + vitD). Asked DH about it and he said he felt the same.

Now the weather is colder again. I shall be able to eat a real full meal once more. As for cereals, I've been going around switching between muesli with berries, oat/rice/wheat flakes which are fortified... and my kids' cereals that are VERY much fortified (but also are quite sugary ). Idk if it was a mistake or not but I was in a state of mind where it wasn't enough, never enough, and I was on the hunt for more vits and minerals.

Days are going by fast and since I had a lot of work in June, it was hard eating regularly/ Sometimes I only got three meals plus a snack before bed and I wasn't sure it was enough. That worries me.

There is never a perfect month and I think you're right on target! All of us with boys had the occasional off week when it was hot or we were busy and we didn't eat much. We have the HE Diet as a goal to aim at but you can get boys even if you don't quite hit the goal every minute of every day! I did eat sugar cereal with some of my boys too. I love cereal and eat all sorts of it.

Aand the line has started to appear tonight on my little cheap OPK's but not too dark yet and my Clearblue is still negative. Guess it will turn positive tomorrow. We DTD already today. Idk if we add an attempt tonight or if we wait tomorrow to see if the Clearblue shows its positive smiley and if so, go on with the three attempts.

DH says he is full of energy but on the other hand I don't want to tire him before we have a clear, confirmed, positive peak.

I would have an attempt every other day till it goes to peak.

Thank you atomic for taking the time to answer ! Now I have other worries haha ! We did it every other day while waiting for our +++, after that we managed to get one attempt the night of the positive OPK and the morning after. But DH had a hard time getting the following attempt going at night. We finally managed but not before we got worried a bit. I hope the other attempts were enough because that one wasn't that great. We'll try to squeeze in one last attempt this morning since DH has to work after that.

In short, we DTD on :

- July 2nd
- July 3rd
- July 4th at night (positive OPK)
- July 5th (two attempts)
- July 6th if DH is up to it ?

Hope I didn't tire him out too much.

Those are all right in the fertile window as far as I'm concerned. It's ok if you can't get in that second attempt in the one day since you'd had earlier attempts (or if one is not as good.) The main reason for the 2 attempts in one day is for all those people who won't give up Shettles. For those of you who have had other attempts, it's all good.

Thank you atomic ! Well the attempt today morning went A-okay ! I'm reassured still that we managed to get the fertile window right ! It was a bit hard these last few days, maintaining the diet, the exercise, the competitive side, the attempts... I felt soo controlling, it has been a long time since I've had to go after each and every little detail !
