In this scenario you dtd cd15 and oed cd17. So realistically the sperm is going to be approximately 30-48 hours old. Take into account that sperm needs approx 6-12 hours to capacitate to even be able to penetrate the egg then that really only makes them 24-42 hours old. Make sense? This is why is commonly said that a 2-o attempt has better conception odds than a 1-o attempt :)

Thanks ladies ive copied this information into my notes for future reference 🤣 my memory is bad these days

Lola im cd5 too. DH still isn't on the bandwagon for trying yet. Though when im fertile i tend to get a little randy and turn into a minx so DH may not be safe and my 'no attempts' til July could be out the window 😂😂

and also, the idea that boy sperm do not live as long as girl sperm is completely debunked. They live the exact same amount of time!

Pbn: lol we got what you mean! I can't wait to experience these pregnancy symptoms :D

Exactly my thought Shinay. This is what worries the crap out of me. I just don't feel bold enough to try eod but what Pbn wrote kind of opened my blocked mind a little bit more. [emoji12][emoji12][emoji12]God knows when will I ever Have the balls [emoji41][emoji41][emoji41][emoji12][emoji12][emoji12][emoji52][emoji52]to ever try eod.
