    Butterfly temping can be handy to pinpoint o to within a day or two. Sometimes its a super obvious maintained temp spike, other times it can be more subtle but you can usually tell with an overall pattern. Clomid or femara are both fertility meds. Clomid can result in more than one egg being released hence the multiples chance but in the 2.5 years I've been active on this site I don't think I've seen any multiples conceived from those taking clomid [emoji848] (myself included) Both clomid and femara are strong pink tactics and some women get clomid specifically for their sway. So if you are prescribed it after telling your ob you've been trying unsuccessfully for a year then bonus [emoji3] I'd probably give e4d a couple cycles too before temping as many women find it stressful to temp/chart

    I'm up because I can't sleep-1.my DS3 has gotten super clingy. I think he's sensing the baby is coming. 2. I can't stay comfortable [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]!

    That brings me to your post, Butterfly. ABSOLUTELY it's time to give up one one attempt at positive opk since you've been TTCing for a year now! You may be like me and not ovulating until 36-48 hours after your positive opk. I know they say sperm can last up to 5 days, blah, blah, blah, but my experience is this does not happen very often.

    I would keep doing your positive opks. Once AF ends, BD E4D until you get to CD22. I would even consider having another attempt once you get your positive opk and then resume E4D.

    E4D works like this: Attempt on Monday and then attempt on Thursday, then on Sunday, etc. If you get your opk say on Wednesday, you would attempt then and have another attempt on Saturday.

    It's time to get you pregnant girl! Yes you can still get a girl this way! Look at my sway- my chart should be attached in my signature. I was doing opks, but my DH wasn't fully on board until my BFP cycle. I had to BD whenever he wanted, which worked out to be E4D that cycle.

    Keep up the diet, stop any lubes (unless you need a bit to make BDing comfortable), no jump and dump (if you have to keep it wait at least 15-30min).

    We will be here to support you! And damnit, we WILL get you pregnant [emoji6]🤣🤣!!

    I would also definitely go in and see your OB and tell him/her you've been TTCing this long without getting pregnant. Most likely they will do bloodwork before prescribing Clomid for you. I would BD E4D this coming cycle and while you are waiting to get Clomid.

    Thanks so much for your input.. makes me feel more hopeful.. I do get positive smileys for a few days so maybe I do ovulate 24-36 hours after that first one.. And I always am peeing on a stick so I catch that first smiley quick!! I see by your sticker you are expecting a girl!! so exciting what timing did you do?

    I know my mom took Clomid at some point and she had three girls.. she has passed away so I can't ask her about it but she struggles with getting pregnant her second pregnancy and then had me as a surprise at 45!
