Both my boys were conceived by accident with 5 day cut offs. I don't really know that timing works all that well, maybe if you could pinpoint ovulation to the degree that is needed for 0+12. What I did this time was BD everyday from end of AF to a few days after I was sure I ovulated. Sometimes twice a day! And it was a really long cycle due to Vitex, I didn't ovulate till cd28! I'm expecting a girl. I was also doing the diet by the way.

Two of my friends who were trying "not" to fall pregnant and using the "timing method" fell pregnant 5 days prior to ovulation and both had girls. I'm not saying this is foolproof, in fact I'm a O+12 fan but I'm just giving you examples of two people that I know of.

If it were me, I would just try and keep my PH as low as possible from now on and I would attempt the O+12 because 5 days prior could mean you aren't pregnant at all.

Well, if you were going to get pregnant from the 5 day cut off you would be pregnant by now. I would skip the O+12 attempt and wait to see if you are pregnant and then next month have your DH abstain for at least 7 days before BD at O+12.

Hi ladies.... I'm in a huge pickle right now and I don't know what to do! Dh and I BD'd on Sunday night and now it looks like I'm ovulating earlier than usual - right now, on Friday morning! We have been avoiding O because we haven't even decided for sure if we're going to have another baby (although would love one!).... and were possibly thinking about doing O+12 this month. Now I don't know what to do! (We would be ttc a girl, by the way!) Do we BD tonight and try to get O+12 or O+18 as well as the cut off, or do we just leave it and assume it was a 4.5 - 5 day cut off? I know that is supposed to favour boys! My ph has stayed below 4.5 the whole time. I don't have that much cm - just kind of a mixture of streaky EWCM and creamy/watery cm here and there (sorry TMI!). What do I do? What are my chances for a girl? My DS1 was conceived on night before or day of O, and DS2 was conceived a full 3 days before O, with a full-on girl sway attempt. HELP please! Has anyone conceived 5 days before O? Was it a girl or a boy? We haven't done any swaying to speak of this time, I've just been taking some calcium, cranberry, vitamin c, and prenatal supps as a general daily routine. (I'm still nursing DS2). Jeepers, I really don't know what to do..... any insight at all would be so helpful!!! Thank you in advance!!! Edited to add: I had my FSH level tested in June and it was 10.6, so that's borderline high - so I think my chances of conceiving at all aren't that great anyway, but I never O early, so for some reason I feel like maybe this month was meant to be or something....
