If Timing Doesn't Sway...

[Dreamofpink]

I am a good example of why timing/frequency doesn't sway that much:
Boy #1: Abstinance with one shot deal (DH was visiting his parents prior)...total accidental pg, I believe we had a cut-off

Boy #2: Lots and lots of BD, multiple attempts before +opk and during and after (just had m/c, wanted to be pg quickly)

Boy #3: Perfect boy frequency, every 2 days...::snooze:: and did a cut-off in a light attempt for a girl

Boy #4: I think we DTD very frequently, would take a couple days off and go again frequently...another mystery pregnancy...was not tracking O

Boy #5: One attempt about 2 days before +opk, 3 days before +opk then one attempt THREE days after my +opk (scratch my head how I got pg there)

SO for me to do something different than with my boys is nearly impossible. LOL. I thnk my point is...go with the logic and YOUR body...low sperm=DDs and if you are a highly fertile woman (like...my DH's sperm are practically airborne, they can do gymnastics too), I would comfortable doing one attempt. If your DH's sperm can't do leaps across the room, and your body doesn't seem to be the ideal sperm incubator, then do more than one attempt.

This is great advice I like it!!

Thanks for this! Grrr... this whole thing is so frustrating!! I never know what to do.. no matter what I feel like I'll regret something!

in general I'd think so, BUT I don't think the results we've had indicate that one attempt sways more

I think we may have been seeing a trend in that direction actually. One attempt seems more successful to me - I have not sat down and counted but that has been my impression over the last couple months.

I have a question. DH and I are planning a trip to Vegas in May and are hoping to come back pregnant We will be planning the trip around my ovulation. so since we are swaying for a girl, could we abstain for 7-10 days before the trip, could we then DTD 2 or 3 times a day for the 2 or 3 days we are there?? Would the sway girl still?

sorry I needed to answer this from desktop instead of Kindle thanks for patience. directions are here - http://genderdreaming.com/forum/ttc-...ff-o-12-a.html

I'm planning on doing an attempt at +OPK, it's just last time I never saw a positive. So this time I was thinking about having an attempt around day 13, incase I O on day 14 as I have a 28 day cycle.. but then keep testing incase I get an +OPK late in which I'd also do an attempt at +OPK. Just curious if I'm upping my chances of boy by having more than 1 attempt?

I think that would be ok. If you use the RepHResh and stuff it's not going to be lots of sperm surviving to get to the egg.

Thanks for the response!

We are doing FR so DH is releasing on the days that we aren't BD. We BD today (CD13) and I had last used rephresh on CD10 so I'm hoping a small amount was still around. I haven't used antihistamines this month but so far I've had zero CM so I hope that also helps with the extra BD. DH will be still doing FR until +OPK in which we'll have one more attempt (unless it's tomorrow morning I get a positive and we'll probably just stick to one) hope this sounds good!

Sounds good! Hope it's your month!
