is there a thread or sticky about TTC and using a clearblue fertility monitor???

I ordered one and just curious if anyone else has used a monitor and how to use it with TTC girl.

There is no way to use it specifically for ttc a girl unless your planning to try and use timing which doesnt really sway anyway ? but I can tell you how to use it if your interested ?

okay no big deal, i was just curious. with my last dd i dont think we had a cut off really....had a +OPK at 1pm and DTD that night that was it. so maybe 1 day cut off

I answered this in another thread, but I did not make a sticky about monitors or OPK because there is already a ton of info online about them.

According to Shettles and IG that would be boy timing, but a lot of us have gotten girls doing exactly that - BD on night of pos OPK, or one day before ovulation. Note - we were swaying in OTHER ways and just for the record, BD on that day does not sway either way, it just makes it possible to get pg more easily even with the pink sway tactics. BD with 2-3-4 day cutoff WHILE swaying pink, reduces your odds of conception by quite a lot. BD on O also can reduce odds of conception, because sperm takes a while to get to the egg and if you don't have much EWCM the sperm may not be able to get there in time.
