    Your call to make. I would be inclined to wait if you've only been on diet that short a time.

    According to our results e4d is getting quite good results (with a much smaller sample size). I cannot compare that to one attempt because two different groups of people use them.

    What I am trying to explain to you is no one knows why one attempt works, but regardless, e4d can't be more than one attempt anyway because sperm and semen does not last long enough.

    Thanks Atomic, we (I!) decided to wait and will try closer to O next month without the shallow (assuming this attempt wasn’t successful). Thanks for all your help and constant reassurance!

    Feel a little disappointed to get my period today even though I knew with a long cut off and shallow release the chance of falling pregnant was almost impossible. Funny how our minds still let us hope and dream because we want it so much. Keeping my fingers crossed next month will be the month for us

    An update from me!

    We had our one attempt this month on Sunday (CD18) with the darkest OPK this month (though not as dark as the control line so I wonder if my peak was overnight).

    DH has been jogging, biking, take OLE, drinking coffee and alcohol and reduced meat. He had a hot shower before.

    I’ve been on the LE diet now for what feels like forever but must be close to 12 weeks. Walking daily. Drinking coffee and white wine. Taking folic acid only.

    Have all our fingers and toes crossed for good news next week (I’m going to test from 10 days post BD - is that too early?).

    Send all your pink dust and baby sticking vibes

    I like you guys to wait more like 12 DPO to be sure you'll be likely to have a positive.

    Unfortunately we’ve been unsuccessful this month.

    I feel like our age (both 38), the one attempt, hot shower, nightly drinking, hubby being on medication etc is going against us being able to conceive at all.

    We had only planned to try these past 2 months to fit in with our plans to move across the world but will try one more time.

    Is “every 4 days” considered a method for conceiving a girl despite it being more than one attempt? If it is when would you suggest we start trying that or should it be right throughout the month? And should we drop the hot shower or biking for hubby? He hasn’t actually done any exercise since our attempt as we were both sure it would work!

    yes, every 4 days is still a good pink sway tactic. Sorry, if I had known you were only going to try for two months I would have given you different instructions.

    Drop hot shower and possibly biking as well (unlike hot shower, biking has actually been proven to sway pink so I hesitate to have you drop biking iwthout trying at least one month without the shower). I would absolutely have you guys go to every 4 days in the "72 hour" pattern.
