as far as lubricants go, I havent been able to find preseed in any chemists near me so far, but I did find one called Forelife Fertility Care - which says its a sperm-safe lubricant. would that be ok to use or would it be best to go out and find the preseed?

I would say find sylk if u could. But i guess any sperm friendly lubricant will do as well

Any lubricant marketed as sperm-safe, conception friendly is fine!! The Forelife is fine, it's just too time consuming for me to actually type every brand name out.

Conceive Plus, Yes Baby are a couple others that are not going to kill sperm

While sylk is considered to sway pink, it does kill sperm and hence if someone has been on Clomid more than a month or two they may need to drop Sylk in order to conceive. A small amount of any sperm-safe lube is probably neutral to a sway

Just to be awkward.. I have technically already tried with clomid (with multiple attempts) twice in the 7 months ive been off of birth control but the last 2 months ive gone without it. Do I still go with the one attempt? Or e3d? Time is ticking on now! I had 4 months worth here so I have two months worth left.

No that's why I like having this site is because we try to focus on what is right for each individual rather than the "cookie cutter" approach.

This is one of those things where I'd need a crystal ball to know what is correct. After 7 months of TTC my inclination is to start adjusting things regardless of Clomid to up odds of conception. AT the least I'd want you on every 4 days. Since you've been TTC this long and only 2 months Clomid left, I'd do every 4 days plus one additional attempt at pos OPK this month, next month every 3 days plus one additional attempt at pos OPK

I've been lurking for a long time. I'm starting 3-7 50 mg clomid tomorrow for swaying only. I will have a mid cycle ultrasound. I'm wondering about the bd timing also. We have gotten pregnant every time other than one month of trying. Two miscarriages. I was thinking have dh release elsewhere for 7 days straight and do one attempt at positive opk? I have been trying to do the diet and drinking crystal lite. I took vitex some the past two weeks, but stopped due to headaches.

[atomic sagebrush]

Stay off the vitex from now on, it may make Clomid ineffective.

Doing the release ~may~ be better odds of pink but lower odds of conception. Having him release every 2-4 days instead ~may~ be more blue friendly. The important thing is that one attempt. Keep that for at least the first couple months with hte Clomid.

[mommakofboys]

Ok thank you! We haven't bd almost two weeks before our one attempt. Will that be ok?

How old is he?? If over 35 abstain is not best http://genderdreaming.com/forum/tryi...over-35-a.html

As a general rule I try to avoid the very long abstains (anything beyond 14 days) even for guys under 35 and even moreso with Clomid in the mix, so if it's still several days out, you may need to have him "clean the pipes" and either keep going with abstain or do one of the other patterns we talked about.

[mommakofboys]

He's only 26. I think he has super sperm.. I think this cycle I will try the release every day (7 days) and do the one attempt at positive opk. Thank you!
