Hi, everyone:

I am TTC this cycle after taking a few months off, and I'm actually mid-cycle, trying to sway blue (obviously), but I've got a few quick questions. Today is CD 12 for me. O should be today or tomorrow; I've got plenty of super-stretchy egg white CM, a high/ soft/ open cervix and lots of sex drive, and my cycle has been a clock-work 26 days for the past 3 months, so I'm very confident that O is usually CD 12 (or possibly CD 13 in the wee hours of the morn). We've had BD on CD 8, CD 10 and yesterday, CD 11. CD 8 and 10 he came first and then I came, yesterday I went first and then he did about 15 minutes later. My question is two-fold: first, should we BD today as well? OPK was pos just now when I checked, but this was the first OPK I've done so far, so it doesn't help much since it could have been + this morning or even last night but I wasn't tracking it (why not, you ask? Well, b/c I've found that when I'm tracking assiduously and getting too stressed out about it, I tend not to conceive...so I'm trying to act relaxed and unconcerned...although I obviously am).

Here are my questions. First, if we BD at O-2, O-1, and then O today (assuming O is today, or even tomorrow)...isn't that too much like frequent release? If we BD tonight this will be the third night in a row. I just don't want to overdo it and accidentally sway pink. My second question is this: should I discount yesterday as a real attempt since I came first and he didn't come until a good 15-20 minutes later? I'm a big believer in orgasm helping to vacuum the sperm up into the uterus, which is why we try hard to make sure he's first, and then me...but last night didn't quite work that way. I'm guessing there's still some vacuuming of sperm, but not nearly as much...so does last night still count?

I guess that's all for now. My apologies for being so anal about this (and possibly TMI?), but I'm hoping this is the sort of place that appreciates all the details. :-)

Hi, I just wanted to reassure you. DTD 3x is not frequent release. 3x is fine. I am like you- I don't get a positive OPK until either the day before, and sometimes the day of O. I also O around 12/13. It might be that we are earlier to ovulate and that are LH surge is fast!

If you dtd today a few things could happen- there should be sperm already waiting there if you have EWCM (which you said you did) so adding to it will only increase the number of sperm waiting which sways boy (high sperm count favors boys). If you miss ovulation because you DTD late, then it didn't matter anyway.

Win-win I say! Plus, you should always dtd on the peak of your CM. So, if you still have stretch mucous, dtd. Pink swayers need to release 7x to get a frequent release.

I hope that helps. PLUS- if you ovulate late, then you have covered yourself too.

So many typos, sorry!

I actually posted this in the general member section too. I totally apologize for posting twice. This is where I was looking for. Please help!! --- Ive been swaying for a boy for the past year but have only actually tried a few months. I had a miscarriage this September and we (for timing reasons - vacation next year mainly), needed to wait until December to TTC. We'll we DTD 5 days BEFORE ovulation this past month and I didnt have much CM, jumped and dumped, one time shot thing. I kept my husband away all through ovulation so we could do our BIG SWAY in December. I'm 2 days late on my very regular period and took a test. PREGNANT. While of course I want a baby, I feel I really messed up my sway. I've also been having wine, lifting heavy weights, drinking the BS/CT drink, and I took 2 advil once. I already have 2 beautiful girls but really really really really really want a boy. I'm shocked. I don't feel pregnant and at all. I ran to the bathroom like 5 times today thinking I'd started. Please tell me what you all think about my chances! THANKS!!!

SpicyTunaSushi, thanks for the reassurance! So we did indeed DTD last night...we were both very tired but made it happen. No orgasm for me, though, but still hopeful that a little bit of sperm got where it was supposed to go. All told that will be a total of 4 BDs during the fertile window this cycle. Now moving into the 2ww. Fingers crossed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think your chances are still good, women get boys all the time from a long cut off, there are plenty of women who sway girl and get boys

O-2 O-1 and O is perfect for a boy sway, don't worry about when you had your orgasm, a lot of women don't orgasm and have lots of babies
