Pulling out for a Girl

[onehealthybaby]

Thanks, ladies. I am doing suppliments (calcium, mag and cranberry), sudifed when EWCM is present, two glasses milk daily, refresh and replens, monitoring PH (I have less CM to test though so I think this is harder than it seems), crystal light, cutting back on meat, trying to cut back on salt but it is hard because I love it, and I happen to be part time nursing. I had a highly complex triplet pregnancy last year and lost the identical twins and have a very strong desire to conceive again soon...DH wants to wait a little longer so I am using these as practice cycles, but I would be thrilled to get a BFP. We always pull out anyway, so I am just trying to do it closer to O so maybe some will stick.

Thanks. We did that this morning. Not "trying" till next month but I would love to get a BFP this month (hubby would come around I am sure!) I put in a lime tampon and used replens just in case since we DTD at o+12 (in the hot shower) so all other swaying efforts are there...

It is def. possible and would sway pink, but I would NOT use lime tampon, replens, etc because you are giving yourself virtually no chances of pregnancy.

If you can't get pg, you have no chance at your DG.

My DH and I used pullout for over a decade and never had a pregnancy (and I get pg very easily.)

I think pull-out, shallow release and JAD are just different ways of achieving the same thing but I'd want to do them as well as other things to lower sperm count and sway pink. To me they're in addition to frequent release/abstainance, antihistimines, acid gels etc. and they're something which are easy to drop if you're not getting pregnant.

I agree, they are all different ways to accomplish the exact same thing - lowering sperm numbers. For some reason we don't comprehend, less sperm seems to sway pink.

You don't need BOTH RepHresh and Replens, just pick one. I like RepHresh better.

Less CM is a GOOD thing! Even if you can't test the pH, don't worry about it!!

that you have success!!

Hi ladies, I'm pretty new on here, this place is fabulous! I hope you get your DD onehealthybaby .Sorry to go off on a tangent but could you please tell me how to do the lime tampon technique? Thanks in advance.

IMO lime tampon is to soak a tampon in a half lime half water solution and insert after DTD. Leave it in for four hours if you are doing 0+12 or keep putting one in every for hours for cutoff.

I used lime juice and regular water...there is probably a better way to do it...

The directions on how to make a lime tampon are here with the guide to douching.
