Soooo....

I am pretty positive today is O day. I've had 3 days of +opks. I'm CD 14 today. We have dtd every night for the past 3 days. I'm hoping he can handle it tonight too! lol

I know this is not recommended. But, I don't want to wait forever at getting pregnant and DH is tired of spending the money for the swaying. I think I've done everything I possibly can do with this diet. We used Preseed as I've not had any ewcm, only a small amount of watery/milky cm.

Do you think I'm overdoing it at all? DH is tired of dtd. I am too, but I just don't want to miss my chance this month. And if I get pregnant this cycle, I still have a chance to get a March baby. My EDD would be April 12th, but I always go into labor early lol.

I don't know if you overdone it or not. I look at your chart so I would have done it on cd12 and now cd 14.
And your DH is tired of dtd that's so funny lol poor guy.
Im also tired of all the money spending!!
I think you did enough for a bfp for sure! And maybe he is up for today to so you have a big chance!GL

Thanks Flava!

I had originally thought that yesterday CD13 was O day with the dip and then the rise, but today's temp was slightly higher so I think FF will give me today as O day. I tried the O-2 thing last cycle and because my O was early, it didn't work out.

I'm just thinking that I've done enough with the diet that if I'm meant to have a boy, then I will. I'm ready to be pregnant and I know DH is ready for me to be pregnant too! lol He is just worried that his sperm count will be low dtd so much. But it probably is lower because of that, but I think that since he's lost a lot of weight (50+lbs) and has been on the vitamins/supps for about 4ish months, that he'll be ok.

I am pretty sure I O'd on the 14th and we dtd the night of the 10th, morning of the 12th, and evening of the 13th. So I dtd more often too for the same reasons, swaying is getting expensive and I am sick of it and wanting to get pregnant. But I did not dtd on O day--for one thing, I think I O in the morning and I had to work that day and did not want to risk being hitting O+12 and all that. And my DH was tired of dtd too. He said he didn't know if he had any left, lol, so that kind of worried me too and I figured three times dtd was enough and I would just pray that the diet and supplements would be enough. Good luck!

I think it's so great your DH lost 50lbs!! Mine need to loose some to asap but nothing so far! So I just told him today "do you think I like to workout with freaking dumbbells every day and eat on commend ect ect? So you can work on it a little bit too"
So he said he will try because he want to loose some weight and not just " because of the count" he said. LOL
Now I just hope he is going to do it!:fx:

LOL Flava! Maybe he'll get to working out and lose some weight and up his count!!!

Daisy-I definitely know what you mean! I've been on the diet part of swaying for 3 months and it's getting sooooo old! I hate salt! Ugh! I hate V8 juice! DH hates spending money! lol Let's get PREGNANT!!! How ma ny dpo are you? Good luck!

When we conceived my son, we DTD every single day I was fertile ( like 6 days in a row!). Both my girls were one hit wonders. I think it is okay to DTD for a few times in a row. I am planning on doing it at least 2x when we try to get our next boy in October.

Hey ladies.....I don't think timing or frequency matters so much. As long as your DH doesn't have count issues, it is totally ok to dtd every day. Like Hobbs said, lots of boys are conceived dtd every day! Hope this is your month, Alexis!

I've been looking on FF at charts and notice there are tons of boys conceived dtd many days in a row! Yay!!

DH has a SA done about 5 1/2 years ago and his count was 20-25million (can't remember exactly). They said it was on the lower end of normal. He has been overweight ever since I've been with him and just recently got back down to what he weighed out of high school and he's 31! So, he's not overweight anymore. It's such a drastic change from what I'm use to him being. I'm so proud of him. I'm hoping that helps his sperm count. Plus I ALWAYS put him on vitamins when we ttc. And even extra supplements this time for the sway. So, I think he will be ok. :)

Yep, I used to scour the FF charts also and timing really doesn't seem to be a factor. I hope it worked! And I bet your DH is just fine.....that's great that he has lost so much weight, I bet he is much healthier and that is a huge plus for a boy sway!

Yes that is low but then again that was one analysis done several years ago!!! Good for him to have lost the weight, I think you guys are ok with trying several times in a row if you're happy about it.
