When my temps didn't rise for 3 days after my supposed O, I panicked and we had an attempt on Thurs Dec. 29th, but I really don't think I o'ed that late, because that would have made my BFP @ 8 days without FMU. So I am sticking to Dec. 25th as my O day until told otherwise by my OB!
No abstaintance. We tried it in Oct after a 8 day abstain and my DH could not get it up at all...and he couldn't even for two weeks after that! It really affected him too much. He has a low sex drive anyway. We did have a BFN attempt in Nov with Rephresh and one BD on O day, so after that, I figured we'd need more than 1 attempt, but I didn't want to lump them all together, for fear it'd be a mass of tons of sperm hanging out at one time. Maybe this was wrong, but even if I wanted to, could not attempt too often because DH couldn't get it going. He has a slow charging battery!
