November thread for all swaying BLUE xxxxx

You think we would be ok to skip tonight? If we did tonight do you think we would head into girl territory?

Id say go again tonight just incase, and dont worry about girl/boy territory, theres really no such thing.

I have just been reading through the "how we got our boys" thread and besides the diet (which is an overwhelming factor) the thing that jumps out at me the most is the frequency in DTD.
With DD1 we were on our honeymoon so DTD lots but had dieted and done cardio everyday for months to look good.
With DD2 and DD3 it was a one off.
So I was thinking if I wanted to have a few BD's before our attempt (approx 9 days to g-O, ha ha) do you think it would help or hinder us to maybe BD 0-7, 0-4 and then have the 2 or 3 attempts when the OPK+ comes up? Isn't it meant to raise your PH to have frequent BD and also, this means hubby gets to release every 3 days. Just a theory and I apologise for completely overanalyzing this issue.

you can absolutely BD every 2-3 days and then do a few attempts when you get a positive OPK

I agree with Cinss there is no boy/girl territory, you do what you feel comfortable doing

Just venting a little...

So I'm still not 100% sure that I ovulated at all, but I guess it's to be expected that this cycle would be a little wonky after my m/c. We only ended up having 2 attempts in the window, as hubby picked up a bug and we had DHs childhood bestie staying with us for a week.

Our first attempt freaked my out...when I realized too late he hadn't released in like 2 weeks so I probably got a batch of old guys in there. Second attempt was ho hum...I don't think there were a whole lot of swimmers (TMI alert...usually he has a big batch ).

So like I said, O symptoms were all over the place (I don't do OPKs, have had exactly one + in about 200 tests!) and I use the microscope. So IF I did O then my best guess is it was around CD 10, which is a day before our first attempt and a day after our second. Now I'm stressing out, because I'm getting the cramping, boobs a little sore, you know all those symptoms that could be pregnancy symptoms but also just as easily could be AF symptoms. I'm a terrible 2ww-er...I can't even look at OTHER ladies HPTs, lol.

So I'm just going to hang out here. I have no intention of POAS for at least another week, if necessary. I'm on CD 21 (my cycles were 24 - 26 days before my m/c). I am probably out for this month, but there is a very faint glimmer of hope.

You never know maybe in a week you will see a BFP But after a wonky cycle it is always nice to start a new cycle as well.

I'm officially in the 2 ww.... Attempt 3 done last night. I just hope I get pregnant!
Anchor, all the best. After my m/c I didn't get af and was pg with dd3...

[Cinss]

afy the dot line thing are the temps, its all good you entered a couple of things on there, you will get more used to it, and find other things to add in as you go, like CM, CP, intercourse, opks, symptoms

Also the 1st +opk (smiley) you get is the important one, after you see that one you will O 12 - 36 hours later, it doesnt matter how many +s you have after that.

Anchor & minimatron goodluck in the 2ww, hope you both come out the other end with your BFPs
