swayers over 35 buddy group

[lemon2012]

Hi again Ladies,

It has been a gbit quiet on here it seems. I hope everyone is doing well.
We are getting to the end of the month...has anyone made an attempt this month? Anyone waiting?
I am getting anxious as I am entering my fertile time.
I made a post but no one responded directly. Sorry if it seems selfish, i just wish someone could tell me what to do to get a girl. It is all consuming!

Can someone suggest a plan?
I was thinking of a cutoff bc I am fairly certain what day I am due to o. However, the more I read the more people I come across that say they had a shettles opposite.
Should I bother?

I am cd 10 and DH is releasing. We dtd once on cd 8.
I am due to o on cd 14.

I have been taking cal, mag, cranberry.
I just started vitex and milk thistle (for liver enzymes).
I have been doing a varied IG and LE diet (I think).

I guess I just really need some advice and support. I am so unsure about the cut off now!

lemon - I'm not a big believer in timing. I'd say continue with the frequent release then do one attempt when you get your +OPK then (if you want) another attempt the day after. I'd also use a little rephresh 3 days before expected O. That's just what I'd do in your situation. Good luck deciding - it's very stressful, I know!

Check out zanacal's sway in the attempts section - it was a perfect sway in my opinion - she still doesn't know the gender, but I think she has a great chance at getting her girl.

It has been quiet! I think the timing part is the hardest because there is so much conflicting as to what to do. As long as dh is releasing one way or another I would just try and do it as close to +opk so you can get pregnant and use the Rephresh to keep your pH down like Mocha said. I am trying to plan my Dec sway out now and trying to figure the same thing out! It is confusing. I have some other confounding factors too!

I am new here so I don't know all your backgrounds, do you have other kids, or is this your first? Good luck! Keep us posted!

I should O next week, and will be making an attempt then. I'm nervous about it, because my DH and I will stop trying in January. I keep changing my plan...scared to death!

Thanks Mocha and Amari,
I think I feel like when I dtd, number of times and position will all play a role in my destiny!
Stupid, I know!
I have two DSs!
The first was while I was on clomid due to PCOS. He is 5 now. I conceived on the second month of clomid but basically dtd every other day and the final attempt was day of postive dark OPK. I actually had an ultrasound that day and saw the mature follicles so it was sometime about 12-36 hours before o I believe. We had dtd on cd 113, 14, 16, 18 (pos OPK), and cd 21 which I do not think counted.
Second DS 2 was an oops. We dtd once the whole month. I believe he was 1.5 days ahead of ovulation as I felt the pain and wondered what it was! It was DS2!
Now, I am 37. I think I am fairly regular but it changes slightly each month. For a while there I was cd 15 but stress and other factors changed it the last two months.
I have been doing a little bit of LE diet and IG diet. I do not weigh too much right now at all.
I have been taking cranberry, calc, mag. A few days ago I started taking vitex.

We dtd on cd 8 to get one started.
DH has releasd twice on CD 9 and none today I think!
It is cd 10 and already a faint line on the OPK and Clearblue monitor says high fertility so I am about 4 days away from ovulation.
I used on applicator of rephresh on cd 7 and half an applicator today.

Considering I am due to o on cd 14 should I do it everyday?
Should I do today and then Monday and o on Wednesday? (that seems boy though!)

Finally, my lunar calendar says high mirror fertility (whatever that means) on the 24th (either on o day or the day after o) which is a girl day.

Why one attempt?
Is there a reason behind it?
I do really want to get pregnant!
Also, my jonas calendar says girl on the 28th which is a week away.

Yeah Yuzu....in the same boat!
Nervous!
Any tentative plans? Can you make some suggestions for me on mine....?
Thanks!

Hi Lemon. My attempt is coming up soon. Im on CD 7 and will attempt at very first positive OPK (digital with smiley). From everything I've read I think the timing is the least of it. I do believe however, that you are more likely to have a boy the day of O. (I know contradictory, I just can't get over it)!! I'm scared of O+ too close to ovulation and I really want to get preggo and not have one BFN after another.
I posted my plan in the TTC girl thread. I'll go get it and give you the link if you want to see my entire plan!

What do I do????

Sorry I can't keep up with this thread!!!

lemon, If it were me, I would TTC as soon as you can, with RepHresh, Sylk, or Acijel if you have any, and just do a jump and dump. If you want to be super cautious, you can have DH release once and toss the first batch, then DTD again right away and use the second batch for insemination. IF you do go that route, you might want to go VERY lite on the jelly (or even skip it) and lay down for 5-15 min after DTD.
