    opk and bbt

    After a year I am soooo tired of it!! I want to just not do it this month. I just ordered a plan so I will see what Atomic says but I feel like I need a break but don't want to miss my O time. Will BD every other day sway boy? Probably. CD 1 is later today or tomorrow so I have a couple days to decide. I am gonna have a nice cheat day, although I did have one yesterday too. Philly cheesesteak!! And cheesecake!! YUM!!
    Anyone just go by CM? Or should I at least stick with opk?

    Drop OPK and BD every 3 or 4 days.

    I am gonna try to get your plan back to you by tomorrow since I know you need it fast.

    Agreed! BD every 3 days, it's what I'm doing this month. Every other day definitely sways blue.

    I would NOT go by CM, that is rarely reliable. OPKs are much more so. But if you BD regularly all cycle you don't need to monitor anything.

    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

    Djmommy - after 3 months I've already had it with diet and opks. You've done amazingly to last this long. I'll be dropping the opks next month too... I was becoming crazy obsessed and bitterly disappointed when I realised that they weren't showing positive and that I missed ovulation ( didn't even have an attempt in fertile period this month [emoji16]) so we'll just be trying every 4 days for a few months then might drop down to 3 days as well just to take the guess work out of it. Good luck!
