After some opinions please!!
We dtd last night and my ob said to do eod and not use opks or chart - so of course I'm charting and using opks lol BUT do I add an attempt in tonight or leave it until tomorrow and stay with eod as she recommended??? I will o sometime tomorrow. Just don't want to mess this up!! Updated to add dh just said we should stick to what ob said because what if I don't o tomorrow. Maybe he's right. Shouldn't have used opks *sigh http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...fee4a1098c.jpg
This is my opkhttp://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...a0f9054349.jpg

Pbn3, I have to wait until it's Monday business hours to get scanned. Nothing is open here except restaurants on Sunday (Saturday isn't much better), it's like Christmas practically. The awfully limited time shops and services are open is by far the thing I hate most about living in Germany. It drives me batty. It's particularly bad bc I live in a rural area but even the big cities are dead on Sundays.
I'm so jealous of your timely positive OPK. I would definitely stick to EOD. More often could deplete sperm too much and could tire you both out if O is by chance delayed.
essnce, welcome back, glad you had fun, did you get hubby to slip up at all on vacay? Hope he slips up tonight!
Thanks maiden I'd started leaning towards going ahead with attempt but couldn't stop worrying about over doing it so maybe your right. I think my gut is telling me to stick to eod too.

So because I cant decide to bd or not bd I resorted to writing yes and no on two same size bits of paper and drew blindly. Both times, almost an hour apart I drew yes. Hope fate doesn't kick me in the butt and I actually o tomorrow. This will sound absolutely crazy but I have another question: do you think fresh swimmers - while less quality recuperation wise (24 hours old) can interfere with sperm that has already capacitated and is waiting? I'm just nervous of an extra attempt as I'd have had the same schedule basically for past two cycles I think but this is my first clomid cycle and I want to maximise my chances!!! I'm nuts for even wondering about this right???? I hate that I've gone from a solid plan with no plan to deviate from it to now second guessing every thought :( I just want to make a decision and be happy to stick to it!!!

I don't think anyone knows but I doubt it matters significantly. If you're stressed about not having enough attempts by all means attempt. Better than worrying so much! It's not a huge difference really. Do what YOU feel comfortable with since you're not swaying. You do have more Clomid though right? This isn't your ONLY Clomid cycle? Since the data indicates you, not DH, are likely the reason for your recent troubles, the Clomid is what will make a real difference this cycle, not your BD pattern, IMO.
I got my cross hairs...

My Ovulation Chart
Woohoo crosshairs maiden and a nice rise at that!! Cant wait to see what your chart looks like over the next week or so!
And thank you for your input! I'm really annoyed at myself for second guessing my plan this cycle! I make up my mind to add an attempt then 5 minutes later I change it again. I've actually got 6 cycles worth of clomid in my scripts lol even though I told ob I'd try for another 3 which is pretty much where I'll finally draw the line as I will be yet another year older.... I keep jumping from less is more to more is more (swimmer wise) and initially I was dead set on not using opks for this very reason!!! I really do think I'll o tomorrow and a morning bd is out of the question. So back to deciding hahaha!!!

No slip ups during vacation unfortunately, but we did manage to BD twice in an hour but that was 6 days ago so doesn't matter. And now DH is asleep next to me without BD tonight! He literally falls asleep within a minute of his head hitting the pillow and if I try to wake him up he gets super grouchy! I did manage to wake him up and BD three days ago but I doubt I can do it again tonight. Oh well.Quote:

Thanks essnce! And that would be correct if I o tomorrow.
