Ovulation.

[Babyy Love]

So I pretty much never know when I ovulate and I don’t even test to see when I do. I sadly rely on my app to track it for me which basically tells me 7-14 days after my period is when I ovulate. I’ve also had friends tell me BD as much as I can 2 days before I ovulate for that whole day (impossible) and then I have those who tell me 1 and done but still days before ovulation. I pretty much think my weight (overweight) sways girls but my lifestyle I think I sway boy. I am also a cancer patient with limited time to conceive AND just finished my cycle legit 2 days ago. Hope I can catch when I ovulate !

I know we talked about this privately already but you guys, the apps do not work unless your cycle is, and stays, perfectly regular. It is normal for cycles to change a day or two or three either way. Most people ovulate 10-14 days after their period starts. It's unusual to ovulate 7-9 days after your period starts.

Your friends are giving you bad advice because having intercourse several times sways BLUE. You want to have just one attempt for a girl.

My inclination would be for you to do the every 4 day method in the every 72 hour pattern (so count the days Monday, Thursday, Sunday, etc). Start this right away as soon as your period stops. You don't need to track anything to conceive, just need to have regular unprotected sex, but not too often as lots of sex sways blue. We've had good results with the e4d method.

Thank you atomic!

Does that mean he releases inside or outside? What sucks is that I absolutely missed the window I think. We are both sick so should I wait next cycle or still this cycle? I mean in a way I can’t ovulation makes us frisky lol
Also sex heals a cold in his eyes (any excuse)

When doing the every 4 day method those are unprotected attempts where he releases inside.

Even if you think you missed the window, attempt (if you feel up to it and good about your sway otherwise). There's no harm in an attempt after the window has closed, and if you're wrong and it's still open, you can conceive!

STILL sick as a dog and it took DAYS before we DTD which was 2 days in a row. Both of us are so so sick so I don’t even know how we did it but definitely skipping 2 days after this. I know it probably sways blue but ehhh God willing!!

Good luck and I hope you're feeling better soon!

Thank you!!
Do I need test to track ovulation or is there another way?
This month I just went based off the days after AF. I know I know apps are the last thing to go based off of but Ovulation is said to have happened today so did my attempt of these 2 days just scream blue?

No you don't need to track ovulation, you can do the every 4 day method instead if you don't want to track with the strips. Totally up to you.

2 days was worse than one historically in our results (although lately, they're very close - but I suspect this is because a lot of people who don't sway much in other ways do the one attempt, and it's dropped due to that) but it was 3 that was really the killer. And even with the dreaded 3 attempts, we still got girls in a healthy amount, just not as high as we'd like to see. It's done now so just try to not obsess over it, and sending you tons of pink dust!

I skipped yesterday but woke up to white and red rose petals, yellow and orange roses, chocolate strawberries and my favorite wine!! How can I turn that down?! If this is the month this is going to be a boy or one lucky pink lol

Even with 3 attempts, we still have plenty of girls conceived. None of this stuff is magic bullets!! Good luck and pink dust!
