    Oh shoot I'm so sorry I missed this, please always bump your posts if it looks like I didn't see it.

    I think we are getting best results with one attempt in the fertile window regardless of frequency. I agree you guys should not do abstain.

    If you want to include frequency patterns, you can do either:

    Compressed FR where he releases on his own or with you, iwth a condom (do not have any more than one unprotected attempt!!) for 2-3 times a day for 2-3 days before your one attempt. These releasess can be separated by many hours, up to 12 hours apart.

    or Hurry up FR where he releases once, dump it, then DTD again as soona s he is able to, within 6 hours or better yet within 3 hours and only that second release is used for your attempt.

    One attempt is getting 75% success for pink regardless of frequency, so no matter what, stick to the one attempt.

    O-1 is probably best so you don't miss the egg. Other than that it doesn't matter, since timing doesn't sway.

    My Ovulation Chart
    currently TTC, Cycle #16 since last BFP

    TTC #1 - swaying pink on & off since Nov 2013 - hoping for a girl first but excited for either!

    Dec 2001 - May 2006 : 5 early abortions of healthy singletons (3 medical @5w, 2 surgical @8w, last 4 pregnancies conceived with late DH, all conceived while TTA/on birth control)
    Mar 2012: miscarried B/G twins @5w (conceived 2 cycles after remověng Paraguard copper IUD while NTNP), one twin was ovarian ectopic

    Me: 34, widowed, late O + short LP, normal-good hormone levels excepting undetectable testosterone, seeking a known sperm donor/life partner
    My sway: vegetarian LE for over 28w, skipping breakfast, fibre (ground psyllium husks) with/before/between meals, physically inactive, drama avoidance, ocassional minimal YesBaby lube as needed, alternate cycles on low dose Clomid, double shot lattes (with meals)
    Past sway tactics I've dropped (in order): Vitex, Sudafed, antihistamines, intermittent fasting, one attempt per cycle at positive OPK, one attempt in fertile period

    I know Atomic has always recommended make your attempt as soon as you can after getting a positive OPK. Hope that helps.
    2011 - Matthew (who is the light of my life) in 2013 for delivery some time in 2014

    Came to this website in September 2013 hoping to sway for a girl as we have none on either side of our families (6 boys total). Diagnosed in January 2014 elevated FSH level and extremely low AFC count. Praying and hoping God blesses me with one more healthy child whether it be another boy or a girl. Praying my RE can help me to achieve my dream of giving my son a sibling some time soon.

    Sorry! Yes, O-1 is the day before ovulation and usually what results from one attempt at positive OPK like Trishy said. It doesn't matter if you BD close to O as that doesn't sway blue. It's the number of BD attempts in your fertile window that seems to sway - 3+ attempts blue, 1 attempt pink. One attempt the day before ovulation/@ positive OPK has the best results for girl so that's our mantra here.

    Thankyou :-)

    So frequency definately doesn't sway?
    I will also be using Rephresh (not sure if to use sylk as well?)
    Hot shower before and J & D any other tips?
    Would love a girl!

    Frequency may sway a little bit but it is just not getting good enough results to make up for all the trouble it causes.
