Last minute confusion!! What do I do?

[happyheart]

Thank you zanacal!!! I am so excited for you as well!! Sept is our month!!!

I am trying not to stress too much right now... but gosh that's hard to do!! lol

[zanacal]

I know! I feel so much better having an attempt under my belt and think I'll be far more relaxed if it takes more attempts. I hope it's the same for you

Thank you zanacal!!

It's so odd... no ewcm since the one time I saw so much... odd ... and confusing!

[zanacal]

I always get that 3 or 4 days before I O!

Happyheart- I am on clomid too and 6 days before I O'd I recorded ewcm on my chart and some watery cm. Then around O time I got sooooo dry it wasn't funny. I have never ever been so dry especially around o time. I do think this is why I didn't fall pregnant this time. THEN after I had O'd I got lots of creamy cm. It does funny things to you clomid.

That's good new zanacal! Thank you!!

Lena ~ oh wow! This is my first cycle on clomid, I am on 50mg. Thank you so much for the very helpful post! I was starting to worry that I missed it! If I do not have any EWCM during our attempt I am going to use just a small amount of preseed.

Thank you again!!

Hello

My CBEM reached high this morning and I had lots of EWCM late yesterday. Which is odd with clomid!!

Ok... do I now try to get rid of the EWCM or let it be? It may stick around through ovulation or it may go away... I am not sure since this is my first cycle on clomid.

Also, I should get a positive opk anytime from today through the next 3 days I am guessing. We will be DTD through ovulation. So, when we DTD tonight does dh wear a condom?? Sorry if this is TMI!! I am confused as to when we start not using one... eek...

Thank you for any help!!!

ETA: We have been dtd nightly only for two nights now... should we do two releases a day (the second 8 hours after the first, right?? oh... and it has to be DTD release as my DH won't do it any other way..ugh!) from here on out?? Or just the day of the positive OPK and the day of ovulation???

ETA 9/7 ~ no ewcm since the one time I saw so much...????

Zana and DM have already answered this exactly as I would - when on Clomid, you need to get pg as quickly as possible and not play around with things like antihistamines, etc. I would go ahead and DTD even with the EWCM and just count on the Clomid to do the swaying. If you MUST, you could douche first with JUST distilled water to wash away the excess CM.

Hi Zanacal! Thank you for your response!! I was worried about the ph level if we do not use a condom... is that a silly concern?? Is there a benefit to conceiving without a condom before I get a positive OPK?

I think if it is ok with clomid I do like the twice in one day thing for the actual attempt days.

Thank you!!!

I would not worry about the condom/pH if I was on Clomid.
