I'm not 100% sure when I'm going to O. I'm cd13 today and am sort of expecting it to be cd15. We dtd cd9 and cd11 (big o for me whoops). Where to from here? We haven't abstained and we haven't frequent released so I don't know whether to leave it at that for this month unless the opk isn't positive for a few more days? On cd 11 he did a very shallow release with majority not even inside. Will that sway more? Tia

You could DTD cd15 if you wanted. That would be 4 days from your previous attempt on cd11. Or just leave it for this month and try and get next months attempt a bit closer to O so you have better odds of conceiving. Depends how much of a hurry you are to get pregnant really. Good luck :)

I agree, I'd go with every 4 days.

Since the release on CD 11 was so cruddy I would consider strongly having another attempt tonight. I would hate you to O on CD 14 because that will not give you a real good shot.
If you feel your CD 11 attempt was decent enough, then yes go with attempt on CD 15

When do you start count after your period?

Attempt, then count three days after that then attempt again. You can start anytime or the day after AF ends. Make sure though there are three days in between attempts to make it every four days. HTH!

Jeannie, I start a week before the earliest I'm likely to O, so around CD8. Then CD12, CD16, CD20 until at least 4DPO. If you want to ve 100% sure you never miss O, you could start CD2 (or whenever you feel comfortable, my cramps are awful CD1) and continue until you get a BFP or AF.
