using real eggwhites

[iluvmyman]

I think you should put them right before dtd, yeah, make him wait! LOL! ( not because of waiting of course, but leaking)
Here is little movie where you may learn more about using ew in TTC business http://www.tryingtoconceive.com/eggwhites.htm

I agree that it's the last thing you do before DTD. It is very slimy and slippery. I think that's kinda the weird part is really just trying to get it all done when it's go time and remember everything. I wrote a list and definetly used it, reading it over and over to double check I did everything....even though everything didn't necessarily go how I wanted or expected. I think you are smart to do the trial runs.

The eggwhite thing is really slimmy and gross and I doubt there's anyone who wouldn't notice it. I was so clumsy with it that it spilled out n dh had to help me put more in there with a medicine doppler. The trial run thing is a good idea but to be honest if I had tried it before hand, I would have been discouraged and dropped it. But I if I had to do it all over I would totally use it, I think it helps with faster conception even b4 swaying, just my , GL

im assuming the reason why some ppl use real eggwhites is bc their bodies dont produce it themselves or cant get their ewcm to be above 8 or 9 in pH, correct?

any other reason?

also for those who have used it, how did you do so? how much? and what did your dh think? or was he in the dark on this?

I read some of the info on this on IG.

Viene made a post about egg whites a while back, here it is. http://genderdreaming.com/forum/show...-Using-real-EW

The reason why people use egg whites is because there is a theory that Y sperm like very high pH and egg white has very high pH. No one has EWCM with pH of 8 or 9, it just doesn't happen.

I personally like PreSeed better http://genderdreaming.com/forum/show...?1111-Pre-Seed and http://genderdreaming.com/forum/show...-lure-of-Lubes!! You can actually mix some baking soda in with PreSeed to raise the pH and the directions are here http://genderdreaming.com/forum/show...ng-Soda-basics!

i was thinking exactly that about the children's medicine dropper.
what about, has anyone had any infections from doing this?

Yes, a lot of people have gotten infections from them unfortunately.

People's doctors used to recommend using egg whites to help with fertility but that was before PreSeed was invented. (some doctors still recommend it, you know how some of them are kinda behind the times LOL!!)

I prefer natural EWCM with PreSeed as a second choice, and the reasons are because it's less messy and I really really think that superhigh pH may turn out to be just as bad for sperm as superlow pH. There is a reason why both EWCM and semen is naturally pH in the 7's, it's because ALL sperm survive best at that pH and I find it hard to believe that if X and Y both thrive in pH in the 7's, that any sperm would love being pH 9.

Also, my other concern with egg white is that a lot of people have found that it's so runny that it washes the semen away. You might as well douche afterwards, that's how much is getting washed out. Lola has a post about this somewhere and she actually quit using the EW because of it.

So what is the highest pH we have?
I never had problem with EW . We don't have to use the runnier part of it. But again I was doing msu so I needed the ew for that.

It varies dramatically but around ovulation, it is in the 6-7 range.

So do you think that a pH of 6 before doing any fingers or baths etc is great for a boy sway?
I was 6.7 few days before O last week and was worried I was not high enough. Do you think I can relax a little now?

Oops not suire why my msg cut off? Was going to add I will be using pre seed and baking soda too as I don't feel I get enough ewcm.

TTC, in the months before I started swaying with DS 4, I WAS a 6. Then my pH dropped because of the diet but I still conceived him even with my low pH! I think my natural setting prob. is 6. So yes, I think 6.7 is actually quite good for blue and then if you do PreSeed, BSF or whatever, that will only help.
