Whoops I think I missed part of this, yes, you can do pullout or have him wear a condom.
Most of us do the one attempt at positive OPK just for the sake of convenience. But you don't have to. If you ahve a regular cycle and want to do a cutoff, feel free, just be sure it's only 2-3 days as any longer than that cuts odds of conception to practically nil, esp. with using other sway tactics

I'm going to start posting links to threads that show firsthand the stuff that goes wrong when people try to do frequent BD. IT JUST DOESN"T WORK in a practical sense for the vast majority of people who try it.

DO NOT DO BD THROUGH O EVER! Pink or Blue! explanation on first page
When you say Din not BD through O, do you mean do not BD the entire fertile week, or like don't BD everyday from AF-O? We usually have sex 2-3x in the fertile window. With the last two being the day of the positive opk, and the day after. I was swaying blue, and got my daughter that way. I'm trying to sway blue again, but that's pretty much always our frequency. Should we be doing something different?

I mean do not start right after AF ends and/or don't start like a week before you expect O. Once that fertile window opens, the more the better, but what people are doing is starting BD too soon, so all the spermies die off, and then BD every day (or sometimes more than that) so by the time the egg drops, there are not many sperm left alive to fertilize the egg. All the "good batches" lived and died 7-10 days prior, and just not enough is coming out per batch to make it to the egg (it takes millions of sperm to fertilize one egg!)
What I like blue swayers to do is BD unprotected every 2-4 days and then once the fertile window opens, hit it with 2-3 additional attempts. You're doing great, but do continue with that BD every 2-4 days, or even a few days with every other day after the pos OPK attempts if he can, even after you think you Oed in case it's delayed for some reason.

As of this year, 2017, 77% success rate for pink. (some of these people did other frequency patterns like e4d) Our results have only gone up since we started emphasizing the one attempt.

Atomic, this may sound crazy but I’ve been reading about moon phases… I have a ‘red moon cycle’ currently which I didn’t used to have. Meaning my period is coinciding with the full moon. From...
