One attempt?

[atomic sagebrush]

Thanks Atomic! I think I do remember you saying that Zyrtec hasn’t worked. I have prescription Sudafed for severe allergies so that I always take (doctor is okay with it as long as I stop with bfp). How do you recommend timing the one attempt? I suck at identifying CM, so would ovulation strips and abstaining til a positive be the best option? I’ve never had much luck with them (multiple positives or no positive) so maybe a digital kit would be best? Thanks

I would probably just have you do every 4 day method in that case. Unprotected sex every 96 hours apart for the first couple months (start after AF ends and going through till you're sure you've ovulated even if that means going all the way through till your next period begins) and then go to every 72 hours apart.

I would not have you guys do abstain as it hasn't worked and your husband is 35. And if OPK are problematic for you then the digi's will likely be trouble too (they work very much the same) and it's just less stress to do e4d.

Thanks Atomic, less money as well considering how expensive the digital OPK’s are. One more question- obviously sex will be unprotected e4d, but is protected sex in between ok? Or can that mess things up? I’ll keep you guys updated if I get a bfp

You can have protected sex between the e4d but if you do it too much it will lower hubs sperm numbers. Fine, but may reduce odds of conception some.
