Don't worry, I'm not looking to stir up drama, I'd just like to see how this is being reported so I can better help you move past this. Because, again, if someone was sitting on 98% success rate, they'd be able to not only make billions of dollars, but revolutionize everything we know about the science of conception, helping millions of people in the process. It would be a biological discovery on par with the discovery of germs - even beyond that, since it's basically proving magic is real. NO ONE in their right mind would keep this information private if they had it. That someone has such information and is using it to make a couple bucks on the Internet makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.
Unless a person had an ultrasound they DO NOT KNOW when they ovulated. No method of pinpointing ovulation, even to the day, let alone to the hour, works. Even things like ovulation pains have been repeatedly shown to be unpredictable, with people having O pains before, during, and after ovulation. OPK are also very unpredictable. In reputable studies, even highly trained experts in natural family planning methods using modern knowhow and technology could not pinpoint the day of their ovulation any better than one out of three times. So all these people who are saying they had success with this method you have no way to know if what they're saying is true. You don't know when they ovulated. You don't know the gender of their baby - we have seen people who will go around posting the outcome of their baby's gender based on their baby's heart rate or something their acupuncturist told them, that is later proven to be untrue. You don't even have a way to know if the people in that group are real people!!! For all we know at least some of them are sock puppet accounts - this happens, even in much more "official" arenas like IVF clinics.
You had a good sway. I would just count on the stuff you did to carry the day and if it didn't work out with the astrology, so be it. And anyway, since you really can't know when you truly ovulated, for all you know it DID work out with the astrology anyway.
But if for some reason things don't work out - a loss, or an opposite - I'm here to help you and there are MANY ways we have to do LE Diet without being too restrictive. No one should skip LE Diet out of a misperception that they have to be super restrictive. I have plenty of tricks up my sleeve. ;)
