Okay, can someone help me with my attempts that will be coming up? The past two months, I have been having a 2.5-3.5 day cutoff before positive opk and that doesn't seem to be working for us so this month I want to try something different. Usually I get a positive on day 12 so I was thinking we will dtd on cd6, cd8, 9AM cd10, 5PM cd11, 5AM cd12, 8PM cd12, and cd13.

I know that's kind of confusing but is that overkill? I have no reason to suspect dh has issues with his sperm but he is 42 so that might hinder things. We have mostly been dtd every 2-4 days (or dh releases by himself if we are busy) and he is on supplements. I really want this to be our month but don't want to get rid of all the good sperm too early. We are staying with my parents for one more week so I need to let dh know ahead of time so we can figure out how to do all this without anyone knowing, haha. Thanks!

Yes you can try that pattern if you like. If it was me i would go for CD6, CD8, CD10, CD12 morning + night, CD13 morning + night, CD14 morning.

Ok thanks. That was my original plan and then I panicked. I've been reading that the two days before O are the best to dtd so I thought I should so cd 11 but I'll just stick to my original plan.

I think either that or the pattern Cinss describes are great.
