ditto-you always seem to be there for me w/ an answer & support!i wouldn't worry so much about the timing. it's lower on the list for the 7 factors. i really think abstinance would be the way to go for you. yeah, i don't exactly remember where i read this. i thought i read that having DH abstain for 7+ days was ideal-over 14 days was too much (could damage sperm?)...

i say abstinance (not necessarily 14+ days-i heard 7 days is just as good) b/c then you only have to worry about checking your pH a shorter amt of time til Oi think the way you described it would work!

okay, planning on doing lime douche 1 hr prior to BD. we're going to BD w/ nonlatex condom & then dump sample into cup to make splime. my ? is: do i need to do another douche or syringe prior to inserting diva cup? does it depend on what my pH is in my VJ? or does splime take care of it? i know once cup is in that i need to check after 30 mins. & keep checking ever...

i ordered some great ones from www.babywishes.com. i was having some trouble getting pos. readings w/ other ones (earlypregnancytests.com, i think) but these have done the trick! they weren't too expensive either. i think i paid around $25 for 50 , including the shipping.

i'm using a condom for freq BD til i get a strong fade-in on OPKs w/ still a neg digi OPKwe did freq BD w/o condom w/ DS3. i just want more control over the sway-using lime douche/tampon w/ diva cup. i think it would help w/ checking CM too. i'm going to try to have DH release by himself the 2 or 3 days before i think we'll be attempting too to help not confuse CM w/ "lefto...

Tamara~so sorry your son (& you!) are going thru this. i hope your talk helped.two things i would talk to the workers about:1. teaching children to respect others, no matter size nor age-i think SO many kids today do not learn this valuable lesson!2. i would ask the teachers to think how would Jesus handle this? How would Jesus treat these children? I know my boys...

that makes sense...now i'm wondering what to use to test lime douche/lime prior to TBM w/ diva cup. the strips w/ 0-14 range?
12 Nov 2009 4:03 PM

what type of strips do you use to test DH sample & the lime? i know the lime douche is supposed to be 2 & my colorpHast strips only go down to 4. do you have the strips that are 0-14?thanks!
