Ok. In that case use a very small amount of Preseed or Conceive Plus. Just don't
Every other day is not that great a way to get pregnant. That's because you can end up with only good one attempt in the fertile window PLUS it's also blue friendly anyway. So it's like the worst of both worlds. You risk a higher chance of a boy plus you're risking only being in with one viable attempt (if you attempt O-4, O-2, and O-Day, the O-4 can be too early, and the O Day too late, and if you attempt O-5, O-3, and O-1, only the O-1 is for sure viable, the O-3 can be hit and miss.) I would have you aim at doing e4d plus one more attempt (no matter what this will always be two attempts in the fertile window) or else do SMEP which you can find here: https://spermmeetseggplan.com/smep-step-by-step/

Ok..I think I will try the SMEP, I’ve been reading about it and it seems like it has a lot of success stories.
Few questions -
Do I only have sex at night? We were planning to in the mornings as I’ve heard that sperm count is better then.
Do we have to start at CD 8? I usually ovulate on CD 13. So that would mean we’d in CD 8, CD 10, CD 12, CD 13, CD 14, CD 15 and CD 17. Would the period between 12 and 15 be very frequent BD? Can I start the SMEP on CD 7 or 9?
-
Well, SMEP certainly helps people get pregnant, though I do think it tends to sway blue.
You can have sex whenever you want. I don't think we see better rates of concepiton in the morning, and possibly worse since many people end up unable to have sex then due to family and work obligations. (my point is it's better to aim at having sex a time of day you can actually manage it than trying for something that you won't be able to do realistically)
You can start the SMEP pattern sooner if you want. That's fine.

SMEP plan going strong - Bd’d CD 8, Cd 10, and CD 12... No positive Opk yet, I see that my ovulation strips are turning darker today, which means o expect to get a positive OPK tomorrow.
I had a lot of EWCM CD 10 and 11 but have dried up a little today. Not sure what that means coz ovulation is any day in the next couple days.
-
It is a highly common pattern for people to have a rush of EWCM that then appears to dry up before ovulation. Totally normal and there is still going to be a lot of EWCM up inside where it needs to be. EWCM patterns are really not that reliable when swaying so I'd just rely on the OPK.

Ok! Got my LH surge yesterday afternoon. Yesterday was CD 14 so BD yesterday morning just before LH surge and then today morning. Having Sharp O pains today so I’m pretty sure in O’ing today. Will do 1 more attempt tomorrow morning.

Thank you!!
LE diet is literally the only sway factor for me this time :(. No jellies, had a Big O every time we BD’d , BD pattern was boy friendly, moon sign changed to boy evening of O so not sure when I actually conceived, biorhythm was weak boy, full moon, Chinese gender chart also said boy. So I’m already thinking it’s gonna be a boy . But happy if I will conceive.
I couldn’t do 1 more attempt day after O unfortunately, but I checked my PH and it was like 3.5-4 and creamy CM so it was several hours after O anyway, so I’m guessing it wouldn’t have mattered. Here’s my chart - Attachment 43168

The diet is by far the best tactic. The moon signs, biorhythm, Chinese calendar, etc do not work.
The attempt on the 12th is too early so that still is just two attempts.

Ok.. are two attempts too less? Do I have good chances of conception? Fingers crossed for a bFp this time ):
