Icon5 Cut off

Hi all
Just wondered what cut off most of you started with. I think I might start with 4, did most of you start off with this?
I'm getting so excited about trying. I fell straight away with my ds and wasn't trying any gender swaying, am aware that it probably won't happen straight away this time due to cut off, environment etc.
I've looked into swaying the odds quite a bit and sometimes wonder if we have too much info iykwim!
Look forward to hearing from you 8-)

Default Re: Cut off

With Aidan I had a two-day cut-off -- obviously a boy! With my other boys, I didn't have any cut-off, and Kevin FOR SURE was on O day.

I would start with a 4 day cut-off, at least that's what Shettles recommends. Then if nothing happens, inch a day closer each time, but be careful of how close you get to O day. It also depends on how "mobile" your dh's sperm are. They say sperm can live up to 5 days, but every man's is different, kwim?

Default Re: Cut off

We started with a three day cutoff with no luck in the beginning. I think it was because I was overloading on supplements and my body was so acidic an armored truck wouldn't survive there. I stopped taking supplements b/c we were going to give it a rest and I got pg with a three day cutoff this time. Just be prepared that it may take a couple of times to get it right. I was so discouraged because I though it was going to happen on the first try. Good luck!!
