what is it that it does to the sperm if you have more than one attempt?
I could be way off, but I think by having just one attempt you limit number of the fast swimming male sperm that die off quicker and give the female sperm that are slower but live longer a chance to get to the egg. That's my understanding, I've been wrong before so would also like to know.
We ttc in October and my cycle was getting really long and I ran out on opk's. We kept up the bd every three-four days even though I wasn't doing opk's. We ended up catching an egg early November, like cd 34. I had three or four almost positive opk's in the month before we conceived. It was like my body was gearing up to ovulate than stopped. By the time I actually ovulated I was out of tests. We ended up loosing the baby last week, but will try again in the next month or so.
Give it a go! I just wouldn't bd any more often than every three days, four would be better though.
If you BDed on Friday, you shouldn't BD again until Tuesday, or at the earliest Monday night - what time Friday did you BD? From the sounds of it your attempt is perfectly timed, should end up being 1-2, maybe at most 3 days before O. So I'd wait a full 4 days to keep your sway strong. DO NOT BD again this weekend!
It's not about what multiple attempts close together does to sperm, but the fact that multiple attempts = more sperm inside you, and that sways blue for reasons we don't fully undeserved.
There is NO difference in speed, endurance, longevity, hardiness etc between X snd Y sperm - that idea was completely made up by Shettles based on him looking at sperm under a microscope (which does NOT enable visual distinction) and simply guessing that the faster ones were Y and the slower X. Thus why he developed his ridiculous timing theory. But numerous studies have long since disproven him. None of his ideas were actually evidence based, truly shoddy science that unfortunately still lingers as popular myths.
We bd Thursday night,day of my birthday! Gonna keep testing with opks and have another attempt Monday. I just hope it doesn't sway boy with it being second cycle
Ah okay, time difference then. Monday night sounds perfect. Happy birthday! :)
Help please.did this opk today.don't think it's completely positive. Do u think we should still have an attempt Monday or change to Sunday?
Can't get the picture to upload
Which can't I upload from my phone?
That looks positive or very close! I'd wait until Monday, maybe compromise and BD in the am?
