    Pink butterfly and princessCharlotte, are either of you underweight or quite thin?

    And yes that is 2 attempts.

    My Ovulation Chart
    currently TTC, Cycle #16 since last BFP

    TTC #1 - swaying pink on & off since Nov 2013 - hoping for a girl first but excited for either!

    Dec 2001 - May 2006 : 5 early abortions of healthy singletons (3 medical @5w, 2 surgical @8w, last 4 pregnancies conceived with late DH, all conceived while TTA/on birth control)
    Mar 2012: miscarried B/G twins @5w (conceived 2 cycles after remověng Paraguard copper IUD while NTNP), one twin was ovarian ectopic

    Me: 34, widowed, late O + short LP, normal-good hormone levels excepting undetectable testosterone, seeking a known sperm donor/life partner
    My sway: vegetarian LE for over 28w, skipping breakfast, fibre (ground psyllium husks) with/before/between meals, physically inactive, drama avoidance, ocassional minimal YesBaby lube as needed, alternate cycles on low dose Clomid, double shot lattes (with meals)
    Past sway tactics I've dropped (in order): Vitex, Sudafed, antihistamines, intermittent fasting, one attempt per cycle at positive OPK, one attempt in fertile period

    Depending on when I ovulated I either had a 4 day and 2 attempt before O, or a 3 and 1 day before O. It's the 3 and 1 I'm concerned about x
    In our statistics it's very little difference though. Try not to worry.

    Hi Maiden, yes I am, always have been. Think I just have a very fast metabolism or its genes as both parents and my sister are the same. Why? X

    Ok I'll try hopefully I ovulated more likely the day AFTER Opk though, so that would put me on a better track x

    If I did ovulate the day after positive OPK, it would be have been a 4 and 2 day before O attempt, rather than 3 and 1 day before... so hopefully putting me closer to the 1 attempt bracket seeing as the 3 and 1 would have been classed as two attempts x

    Pinkbutterfly, I'd do anything to O earlier but doubt that pepp tea would help me, but I might try it since it had that effect for you and you are also underweight with similar background from the sounds of it. How much exactly were you drinking?

    Hi Maiden,

    I was only drinking 2 cups most days, sometimes 3 but I was leaving it to stew for ages and ages so each cup was very strong. Have no idea if it even was the PT that bought my O forward but I do remember getting hot flashes when I was drinking it so I do think it was definitely doing something to my hormones so may well be what did it x

    I think that no matter what it is done now so I am going to warn you off worrying on this any more. The dredging stuff up and going over it and over it a million times trying to come up with the "perfect scenario" probably sways blue more than anything having to do with number of attempts.
