Ok ladies-I know some of you are more knowledgable about these OPKs than I am.
You know we are trying for a boy, Lord help me. I just got the smiley face on the CleanBlue Easy OPK-I have been testing 2x a day, so I didn't have one this morning, now at 6pmish, I did.
So when should we do it? Tomorrow morning? Tomorrow night? The next day? Both tomorrow and the next day???
Well, your timing wouldbe awful similiar to mine if trying for a boy. You want the fastest swimmers there right at O. I would try at 12 and 24 if timing works out.

So DTD tomorrow morning AND evening? I know, I am OPK illiterate, it seems. But Bill is so blah about this whole TTC thing, I would at least like him to have his best chance at a son!
Thanks Jenn! As soon as I saw the smiley face, it was like my mind went blank, lmao.
Ok, I'm on it!! I wanted to make sure this was the instruction I was getting, lmao
I am on board-and things are primed and ready to go, lol
fingers crossed, eh?
TY!!
Psst.... careful on the lube. Not friendly on the swimmers. And no pressure on Bill or anything, but a good O for you helps pull those suckers in ;)
IDT we'll have any trouble with this, but no worries if we do. I am ready-I bought pre-seed. :D
Oh, and I am ALLL for me having a good strong O!
good stuff- we use the preseed too- I didn't want to recommend it if you didn't already have it because it can be tough to find, but knowing you have it- perfect :)

Have fun!
TY!! We will!!
I had heard people on the tcoyf boards talking about it, so I ordered some from Amazon. :) I had never heard of it before, but now I am glad I have it!
I am excited, but trying not to get overly so-I still have doubts about my LP. (I did add B6 and B12 and chasteberry and such, but who knows what will happen. Any forward progress on your LP?)

I o'd crazy late this month and got super discouraged....but then my actual start date also pushed back by several days. In the end, my LP was 11-12, nothing to brag about but not clinically a defect.
We're in the game for next month :)
You'll have to tell me about the chasteberry sometime.

Yay!! That is encouraging!! I hope it keeps improving!! What do you think made the difference?
From what I have read, chasteberry (also known as vitex) can help women with LP defect, and also women with PCOS. It apparently suppresses prolactin, which is supposed to be a problem for women with PCOS. But it apparently takes a while to work. Actually, when I think back, I used to take it all of the time after my first round of pred, and it wasn't until AFTER I went off of it that I started spotting before my periods every month. I never put the two together until recently. So IDK if it will make a difference for this month, but if I don't get a BFP, I will definitely keep on it and see if it helps.
