    I'm completely over analyzing when to DTD!

    So after helpful advice last cycle of every other day before O and then a few attempts after O resulted in a BFN, we're attempting again! So here I am on CD14. We attempted on day 11 & 13. My OPK is getting pretty dark, not quite positive yet but close. Lots of cervical mucus. I've been monitoring my cycle for a year now and I regulary O around day 17. Do I try again tonight? Or hold out until tomorrow night?

    Thanks for your help! I'm just so desperate for a little boy...

    What does atomic say? Are you supposed to avoid every day close to O? If no I'd dtd today and ever day right through.
    If you reg o on cd 17 - and want to do every other day I'd do today and then cd 16.

    I'm not sure. I think you want to avoid it if hubby's sperm count is low but I'm not sure. I do know my DH can't do very many days in a row! Paging Atomic! You're my only hope

    I think it can be taxing but I thin over 7-10 days kinda thing. I think the odd time of dtd daily wouldn't hurt

    We conceived DS1 doing it every day for a week and DS2 with about four attempts around O (about every other day). I say go for it!

    If you don't have a positive opk then I would wait tonight & go for it tomorrow... Especially if your hubs has issues since once opk is fully + which sounds like tomorrow then you'll want the 3-5xs.... My opinion! GL!!

    I almost jumped ahead but we waited and I'm so glad we did my opks are almost positive but not quite yet.

    I'd go for it - little swimmers can hang around for a day or so after DTD. Good luck! x

    Sorry only just now spotted this.

    No matter what you did it was the right thing (any attempt when there's cervical mucus is all good) but I'd probably have you keep going with the every other day pattern till CD 16 OR positive OPK whichever comes first.

    We ended up skipping last night! OPK is still negative this morning so I think it was a good decision (especially since DH ends up losing steam the more we BD!)
