TTC Girl - January 2012

While we're on the topic of dtd and rephresh, since I can't use rephresh since I'm on clomid, how many times do you think we should dtd after my +opk? I want to get preggo b/c without that you can't have a dd, but don't want to up my ph too much and hurt my sway. Any thoughts?

Amari~ with multiple attempts I was more concerned with more sperm inside me. To counter that I am going to dtd as a second release of the day. I think that may be more important then the PH anyway, since noone knows how much that sways if at all. Also, you can get DH to the point of no return then DTD. You can use rephresh with clomid- I'm going to but further away from O.

My attempt for Feb will be 3 attempts. Day before trigger injection, day of, and day after. Will use rephresh day before injection (O happens 24-36 hrs later), each attempt will be 2nd release of day.

Thanks! Maybe I will have him release once before we dtd. Why is it good to get him to the point of no return before dtd? I don't have a trigger injection, what does that do? I am just worried about the rephresh killing off everything! Too many decisions!

Ya this is what i'm worried about too, I'm only going to do this for a few months then leave it out if i don't get pregnant. I know you have a shorter time to play with since using clomid. Maybe you could time it so that you use rephresh 3 days before O. Sylk is a lube so it may help with conceiving, or does it also contain a spermicide? i didn't check the label..

Hi everyone,
These posts are sooo fast and hard to keep up with!

Kraizy Daizy,...don't overdo it with the rephresh and douching. You might try one more month with a little rephresh but as we get older it is harder for the egg...I think!

Amari,...you are beautiful! Nice pic!
I think the point of no return is to make sure you do not raise your ph and testosterone.
If you are on clomid I think you want to make sure you make this month worth it. I would try to dtd the 3 days up to o. When I took clomid my doc told me to dtd every other day...cd 14, 16, 18 and 20. You do ovulate later on clomid....cd 16 or 17 and then the next month it was 18 or 19.
Good luck!

Surgena...I had friends over tonight and we had pasta, bread and wine! Of course, we will probably have a boy but I think you can relax and know that one meal is not the end of your sway. You do show dedication but be sure to relax...as many have told me. Let us know how you do!!!

Hope...I cannot wait for Feb for you!

I have several days before attempts.
Good luck katie, pink etc!

hey ladies! I am back again, I was hoping I wouldnt have to be lol not that I dont like this site, actually love it just hoping I wouldnt need it for swaying anymore, I am swaying and waiting, for those that dont know I had an u/s last week at 10wks and found the baby had passed at about 8wks so I went with a d&c(jan 5th) I figured I would start my sway but not actually attempt til about april, I had horrible m/s and need a break before I jump right back in to the horrible m/s(since my normal pregnancies I puke from 5/6wks to 18/20wks and thats while taking zofran) it was my 1st d&c so hoping some test will tell me what happen this time, I think I will do my same attempt like last time but minus the cranberry from af to O, just prenatals, folic acid(was 1600mcg but might increase this) vitex af to O, b6(50mg) the le diet, rephresh, frequent release and bd through(I conceived my boys with cutoffs), I might add more but staying away from blood thinners since I tend to get subchorionic hemorrhaging when pregnant,

Hey XXdreaming. Wow, you have been through a lot. I'm glad you have 4 healthy boys to cuddle when things are tough. I hope they find what happened with your last pregnancy. It is so hard not having control over what your body is doing.

KraizyDaizy, I TTC for a few months last year using douches. Always got BFNs and they gave me horrible abdominal cramps, so I won't be going down that path again. I'm keeping everything simple these days.
Sorry to hear it was not a BFP for you sweetsister.

It is what lemon said. To keep your ph and testosterone low. A trigger injection makes sure your egg releases. Maybe consider doing rephresh longer before O or don't use Or use 1/2 applicator. I conceived a girl (my loss) without trying. All I was doing was losing weight!!

Oh and don't do every other day that's sways boy. Think u know that though !
