Zana, I'm 0 weeks and 1 day pregnant didn't you know? going to catch that egg this cycle!

[zanacal]

You sure are!!

AF is here! I'd already got my head around not falling this cycle so not upset, just happy that my luteal phase was the longest its ever been at 12 days!

Love that your LP has got to 12 days. That is about my longest as well (although this month I think it will be shorter, can feel AF coming and wasn't as good at remembering the Vitex this month as wasn't TTC.

FX for us both this month, I think it will be a good month.

PS - I am 0 weeks and - 1 or 2 days pregnant! xx

Amari~ with multiple attempts I was more concerned with more sperm inside me. To counter that I am going to dtd as a second release of the day. I think that may be more important then the PH anyway, since noone knows how much that sways if at all. Also, you can get DH to the point of no return then DTD. You can use rephresh with clomid- I'm going to but further away from O.

My attempt for Feb will be 3 attempts. Day before trigger injection, day of, and day after. Will use rephresh day before injection (O happens 24-36 hrs later), each attempt will be 2nd release of day.

Thanks! When is your attempt going to be?

Amari,...you are beautiful! Nice pic!
I think the point of no return is to make sure you do not raise your ph and testosterone.
If you are on clomid I think you want to make sure you make this month worth it. I would try to dtd the 3 days up to o. When I took clomid my doc told me to dtd every other day...cd 14, 16, 18 and 20. You do ovulate later on clomid....cd 16 or 17 and then the next month it was 18 or 19.
Good luck!

Thanks, Lemon! Yes, last month I o'd on the 21st. We changed my dose to see if I would o earlier. I think I will do 3 atttempts but wait til I get a +opk.

Thanks for posting the study about fr. The only think is that it is a tiny study! Only 7 people. I think we will still go ahead with fr as not many options. Thank you!

we couldn't manage long-term FR either as DH wouldn't cope with that (with or without help), but that study on 8hourly frequent release showed that if, instead of long-term of once every 24hrs, you do it more often within the space of 24hrs that has a very good lowering effect too.. so we've been doing compressed FR for our sway. Personally I think it must sway stronger than the traditional FR because it lowers semen quantity, sperm concentration, and sperm count more drastically. And the fact that it is less stressful for DH is a bonus!

Hmmm! Crunch time, decisions, decisions. I better make up my mind QUICK.

I think human physiology is similar enough that the trends will apply to all men - there are only so many sperm that can be produced at any one time and it takes time to restore supplies so if you quickly clear out most of the ready-to-go ones in the first couple of releases in short succession there are only so many that are able to make it into the next release
