Comments? The first 2 months we attempted BD only once close to O day and that was TBM which did not yield any BFPs. Also the pre-O temps were low indicating a Boy cycle.
Month 3 was opposite. The pre O temps were high and every one said its a girl cycle. I did not want want to skip after 2 BFN attempts and was getting anxious and stressed. So I jumped the gun even before OPK and my chicken butt licker friends suggested that 2 times BD is a good option and voila!
