Breathing Pattern for 50 fly LCM?

I did my first 50 fly LCM in ages last weekend. It was the first time that I did since I was maybe 12. Obviously, I swam in SCM for Summer League up to 18. Anyway, I did a :34 last weekend but can obviously drop time once I get the proper breathing pattern situated. Should I come up for every stroke on the 50 or breathe every third stroke.

    For the 100 LCM, try two up and one down, that might work for you if breathing every other stroke doesn't get you enough air. This is what I did. I normally breathe every two so it took a conscious effort. If I stopped thinking about it I'd lapse to what I usually do (one-up-one-down).
