I've been ttc dd for 3 cycles, LE, I had a early cut off last 3 times (3 days bf o)because dg had to leave for work. He isn't leaving this month! So I can get closs to big O. My question is should I add an attempt after I think I ovulated (o+12). I don't want to attempts bc I conceived my boys with ultisols attempts up to O. I concieve my dd wth 1 attempt, jump and dump, and underweight skipping breakfast. I wasn't swaying she was a surprise I have no idea when I ovulated with her. Has anyone tried 1 attempt bf O and 0 +12? Or is it too risky. My thought is if the swimmers are there then the O and 12 won't hurt bc if they didn't make the egg I have 1 more shot. I know 0+12 is risky but does seem to sway if you time it right. Or am I wrong!?

O +12 doesn't work bc it's impossible to get pregnant. Definitely don't do that.
I recommend one attempt at positive OPK and a 2nd attempt 4 days later (so CD18 if you BDed first on CD14), just in case O is delayed.

Doing 1 attempt at opk+ and then again at O+12 would put you at risk of two very close attempts in the fertile period if your ovulation is delayed slightly. How do you even work out O+12 anyway? It is very difficult to work out.
Just 1 at Opk+ would be best and better than a cut off as you know you will get an attempt in the fertile period at least.

Then I'd bet dollars to doughnuts it was the one attempt and not the O+12.

True that timing has no effect on gender I got boys with many attempts[emoji12] but with the girl the father was 48 years old maybe his boys died and only girl swimmers left from an old batch fermented and aged [emoji12] he went away working and it was hard to release being surrounded with men so it was one attempt in nearly 2 months [emoji23] Originally Posted by atomic sagebrush
