    Advice before tonight please.

    Today is CD 10 for me.
    Thinking it was too early to worry about frequency, we DTD Sunday & Monday evenings.
    This morning I did my first OPK of the month, and got a positive.
    We were planning on every 4 days plus an attempt at positive OPK.
    I'm thinking that we haven't BD'd close enough to Ovulation to conceive, but I don't want the number of attempts to sway blue.
    Should we BD again tonight or tomorrow or not?
    DH dropped liquorice root 2 weeks ago so his swimmers could be still weakened by that, and I have a cold this week so not feeling very well.

    will not bd as it is pretty close to O and with your last attempt on mon evening, it should close enough for the sperm to meet your egg if this month is your lucky month. And this probably is your pink beanie in it.

    I would BD again tomorrow but not before. Stick to every 4 days.

    My Ovulation Chart
    currently TTC, Cycle #16 since last BFP

    TTC #1 - swaying pink on & off since Nov 2013 - hoping for a girl first but excited for either!

    Dec 2001 - May 2006 : 5 early abortions of healthy singletons (3 medical @5w, 2 surgical @8w, last 4 pregnancies conceived with late DH, all conceived while TTA/on birth control)
    Mar 2012: miscarried B/G twins @5w (conceived 2 cycles after remověng Paraguard copper IUD while NTNP), one twin was ovarian ectopic

    Me: 34, widowed, late O + short LP, normal-good hormone levels excepting undetectable testosterone, seeking a known sperm donor/life partner
    My sway: vegetarian LE for over 28w, skipping breakfast, fibre (ground psyllium husks) with/before/between meals, physically inactive, drama avoidance, ocassional minimal YesBaby lube as needed, alternate cycles on low dose Clomid, double shot lattes (with meals)
    Past sway tactics I've dropped (in order): Vitex, Sudafed, antihistamines, intermittent fasting, one attempt per cycle at positive OPK, one attempt in fertile period

    I just did another OPK and got negative, so I guess I caught the end if the surge this morning, or could it have been a false positive?

    I would stick with the attempts you've already had. I do not feel good about your chances if you add another attempt.

    It doesn't matter how long your OPK stays positive. Most peopel will ovulate 24-36 hours after that first positive, regardless of how long the test stays positive for.

    OPK can ALWAYS be false positives, that's the benefit of every 4 day method is that you're covered in that eventuality.
