Here's the story:
Aug 24 (CD 11) +OPK at 3pm
Aug 25 (CD 12) BD at 1am and +OPK at 2pm
Aug 26 (CD 13) TBM at 7am and +OPK at 2pm
That's 3 days of +OPK so I guess I will O tomorrow...hopefully...:pray:
Shall I BD again or I'm good?
I want to seal the deal , but no to decrease DH sperm number by BDing to often.
Maybe tomorrow morning (Aug 27) - that will be 24 hours apart, is that too soon?
All opinions much appreciated!!!!!! :luck:

.but go for it, I say! If you have the energy!I do, but DH doesn't :rofl:
I got +OPK today at 2pm that is what confuses me. Is it possible to O few hours after +OPK? I'm testing only once a day.And I'm torturing myself with 'what if's...' you know- what if I O during the night and then do perfect O+12, or miss the egg completely, that kind of stuff.

Z-I would not do it but only because I think 24 hours is not so good for ttc blue.
You have to decide it I guess because some of us think go for it and other think no.
And stop guessing around take another OPK tonight for sure!

I have heard it is better to do it early, rather than late, so you don't risk O+12. I don't know for sure though, and I can tell you when I got pregnant with my DS, I dtd every day I was fertile, all the way through O. So I guess do what you feel comfortable with!

Well, you know I don't put stock in timing, that's my opinion. Like Hobber, lots of boys come from daily bd. But, Flava is right, that is up to you.
I was under the impression that most women ovulate about 24 hours after the first +opk, but I know some do sooner and some later. Ya know, if you really think you will O today, then personally, I would dtd again, but that is just me, and I also give you that advice knowing that you probably want to just get pg like I do. Do you feel like you have not ovulated yet?

Good luck Z-B!
FWIW, I don't think doing it 3 days in a row is girl frequency at all. We're having to do it at least 7-10 days in a row (or more!) to get that effect. I'm thinking that surely doing it again would only increase 'your' sperm count iykwim - more sperm with the potential to get at that eggy and sperm out in force = boy! I wouldn't worry for a moment about hitting that mystical O+12 when you've already BD'd through O either.

Thank you for pointing out that for pink sway you have to do it 7-10 days in a row, not 3 only. Made me feel much better :)
Quick update: got faint +OPK today (Aug 27) at 1 am (which I interpreted I'll O in few hours or so) BD at 3 am.
Sooooo, the damage is done :bigsmile: One thing is for sure: I didn't miss the egg which happened to me couple of times :worry:
I ran out of OPK, but I'm pretty sure I already Oed :bigsmile:

:rofl: Maybe I should do this, because my DH is not a fan of pregnancy sex. It freaks him out.... I think this is a great way to make him stay on track with the sway!
