Hey girls, I haven't been on here in a while. I needed a break from all this because we couldn't bd for a month while I was on pain meds and getting xrays on my broken wrist. We have been swaying for 5 months (DD2 took one try so this has taken longer than expected) but I got an OPK smiley at 630pm. Is it recommended to BD 12 or 18 hours after the first smiley? I think the book says 12 hours, 18 hours is right in the middle of the day (tough to accomplish), and 24 hours would put it at supper time, which could be accomplished but not as ideal as evening. The rest of our sway is ok, so I want to do everything I can to get timing right. Thanks for your thoughts!

Welcome back! You could try now and again in 24 hrs? From what I am reading lately it seems boys are conceived like this? Otherwise I would try tomorrow night so 24 hrs away.. or can you do in the morning.. so 18 ish hours?

Ok girls, back to our fav topic - SEX hehe do you think it is best to have a big "O" before the man or after? I can only go once and originally was going for before but am reading alot of people go after? (or both but not porrible for me)..

OMG! So I had a warm bath today with 1/2 cup baking soda and checked my pH half hour later for the first time in over 8 weeks since going off the sway diet and supps and my pH is a 7!!!!!! I have only been back on diet and supps for a few days now so surely it is not that... the bath would have helped some but earlier in the year I had a bs bath and it didn't raise it at all!! Oh, I hope my pH stays like this!!!

sorry to jump in here, but I think after as that sucks the sperm up through the cervix and boosts it towards the right location - this is what we did when I got my DS

Thankyou so much for sharing that always nice to hear tips from the experts hehe So, you don't think it will expel the sperm from the cervix then? That is what I was worried about..

no the complete opposite - any sperm still in the vagina (but near the cervix) will get sucked up through the cervix into the uterus. When you have an orgasm the uterus contracts and sort of creates ripples which "surf" the semen up through the uterus towards the fallopian tubes so sort-of gives them a boost on the way! Nature's way of giving your chances of conceiving a boost

Oohhhhhh ok so an O after hubby it shall be hehe!
