rainbow, sorry to hear about BFN

I hope this is your month, along with Jen, to get knocked up! October is such a lovely month to have a brand new baby!

I posted my FRER picture in the member section under my BFP post, since I wanted non girl swayers to see my good news too!!!

DH has been abstaining for a week or so already, and it's a struggle but he's been successful so far. I actually didn't want him to start until AF was here, but he ended up starting his abstain on his own in December.

Congrats Auroura! So sorry rainbow

.

Well I am CD13 and no +OPK yet, but my CBE monitor has been saying HIGH for days now. I hope I get a BFP this month as I really do not want to do Clomid unless I have too. Also the Chinese Gender Predictor says girl based on my Lunar age of 38 for January, so I am hopeful this is our month. Do you guys believe in that stuff? I am thinking of DTD multiple times from +OPK through O. Is that a bad idea? I have used RepHresh on CD 5, CD8 vinegar & water douche, CD 10 RepHresh and not sure if I should keep using the RepHresh or not. I Oed last two cycles on CD19 and CD21 according to FF, so I have about a week to wait for O, but I have introduced Saw Palmetto this cycle, so maybe I will O sooner. I guess I will start using more OPKs now to see if I can catch the O, but not really seeing a second line yet? DH has been FR and he has started taking the licorice this cycle, so not sure how long that takes to affect his swimmers. We plan to take hot showers, Benedryl, warm up his guys before DTD and maybe use SYLK? What should I use with all the RepHresh so far? Should I stop it, should I use the SYLK? Just worried I will get BFN this month and next month I am predicted boy grrrrh!!! Any ideas would be great and helpful!!! My PH seems low. I got my Phion sticks and even my urine seems low, maybe in the 5-6, and my CM seems in the 4-5s. Maybe I have low ionic strength? I have a digital, but I cannot find it after our move grrrrrh! any way to see if I do have LIS without the digital? Okay now I am rambling and stressing so I will close for now.

Rainbow - You have such a positive attitude

I think the plus side is that it seems more girls are born Nov. and Dec. So maybe this is a good sign for you!

Katie and Pink - Hopefully you both O really soon so that you can take a break from ttc *FX for BFP

Daizy - I'm not exactly sure about the LIS but, i don't think you would see any color change on the ph strip if you had that. I am using rephresh every third day and a fingertip of sylk each day. I want my body to get used to the sylk so my PH doesn't go up when we use it on "the day" since i've never used it before this cycle. I also wouldn't dtd on O day but that's just me, I think i dtd through O with ds2 and ds3

You must have ESP, because I was just thinking, how am I going to know if my PH goes up with the SYLK if I don't try it out first, and was wondering about using a little SYLK with the RepHresh then you posted about using the SYLK each day along with it LOL!!! If you wouldn't DTD on O day, which days would you do it? How long have you been TTC?

**purple sky** · January 7th, 2012, 03:05 PM

I am going to dtd twice only. When I get +opk and then after O is confirmed on my monitor- as soon as cm turns creamy. So I will hopefully have a 2-3 day cut-off and then hit O+12. This is going to sound scary but we have been ttc for over 4 years. However, we didn't try every month and did take breaks in between time. I also didn't realize I had a LP defect. So with everything I know know I will be ttc in full swing. I am taking vitex and b-6 so we'll see how my lp is this cycle

If you are using rephresh every 3 days and bd with sylk I would not stress over your ph (stress=boys). The rephresh will do its job and make sure your cm stays around 4.5

Should I even use the SYLK? If RepHresh is doing it's job, do I need it?
