TTC boy this summer... sway buddies?

[Thunderstruck7]

Thought I'd pop in to say hi... My partner and I are ttc a little blue bundle too, although it's winter here not summer lol. We're going for eod pattern as I struggle to get positive opks.. it was more stress than what it was worth. Currently about 2 weeks away from o! I'm excited about this month as we've been on our ttc journey for approx 18 months.

Good luck ladies I can't wait to see BFP with lol sticky blue beans 🤞[emoji170]

Hi Thunder. Cool to have more blue swayers. I would do EOD as well since it will increase your chance of conception. Maybe you can also use some preseed as well to help sperm stay alive longer once they made it inside. Did you test opk 2 or 3 times a day when it gets closer to O? You might have a short surge, but I agree with trying EOD. Also, did you ask atomic what else you can do to help with conception? I thought blue diets and bd plan would boost fertility. I am so sorry this journey has been long for you. Fx this is your month.

Hahaha that's the exact reason why I got the tablets. I cant stand the taste of cough syrup. Yucky! Are you planning to do EOD or have dh release every couple days outside plus 3 attempts at +opk?

I have 3 kiddies of my own 2 girls then a boy following shettles 100% I now have a new partner (been together over 3 years) who has 3 girls of his own and together we'd love a little boy.

Reason this journey has been so long is because I had an ectopic pregnancy which took my cycle 7 months to recover, then mix in holidays and travel we've really only had 4 unsuccessful cycles, half is due to me stressing and also my DHs health issues

I am naturally more inclined to lean towards HE diet but have also added lemon water, coconut water and V8. I take a pregnancy multivitamin, vit D, probiotics, and an extra folic acid. DH is on supplements of zinc, probiotics and fish oil. While cutting down on caffeine for the both of us.

For ds1 I never did any exercise and I haven't been doing anything special now.

I haven't bothered asking Atomic anything, I have read and re-read everything I can find, and for me I think it's finding what works best for keeping stress down and enjoying this journey.

Oh I will have a swig of the cough syrup when I feel I can stomach it lol

Dh will be happy either way, I'm the one more set on having a boy. But will be just as happy if we were blessed with a girl.

Oh and opks are difficult to test as i work out in the community, no office etc. And don't like restricting fluids for testing either. I was doing them 3 times a day when I could.

I've just decided to stay temping, I think the hindsight will take the pressure off.

At this stage we're hoping to be eod then add an extra shot or two if I am certain o is happening.

I am so sorry for what you have gone through. It is heartbreaking for me to hear anyone have miscarriages or ectopic pregnancies.

It sounds like you have a good plan in play. EOD will definitely bring down the stress level from trying to catch that first +opk. Hopefully EOD will bring you your beloved boy very soon.

I exercised 3 times a week for a good 3-4 months, but have been slacking off this past month due to busy schedules. I hope it didnt mess things up.
