    3 day or 2 day cut off?

    We have not had a chance to frequent BD. We did last night, plan on it tonight, and that I think will be a 3 day cut off. Should I do a 2 day cut off?

    If this helps you, I have had pork a few days here and there, buffalo one day 2 weeks ago. But mostly shell fish. With my son I BD the day before ovulation after a long abstinence.

    How badly do you want to be pregnant....if the answer is "pretty badly" - I'd go for the 2 day cut off
    Good luck!!!

    PS - I think you might want to have DH release once and dump it and use the second batch if you haven't been doing frequent release

    if you want to get pg faster I would do a 2-day one guilt free or even a 1-day one... and I'd have a read on here (and look at the charts) if you want some reassurance: http://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056...99512073332301

    Totally agree! I do think there's something to the "second batch" idea!!

    My take on this would be since you're not totally happy with your diet this last month, I would go with the 3 day cutoff, but if you're frantic to get a BFP then 2-day will def up your odds of pg.

    Minerva's Mommy from IG did a study on FF charts and found that it was more the EWCM that mattered than the timing, so if you have no EWCM you may want to DTD closer to ovulation and if you DO have EWCM you probably shouldn't DTD at that point.
