Newly pregnant and feeling a bit down about my chances

[atomic sagebrush]

I dtd once on positive opk. Dtd three days b4 as well but with spermicides.
I didnt continue the diet after O as i thought sperm has already met with the egg

You are supposed to continue diet to the best of your ability (with of course the occasional cheat) until 7-10 DPO (all month even better) or BFP whichever comes first. Yes, sperm has met egg but you don't KNOW that you conceived, and our results show clearly that 12 weeks or more on diet is best results - not 2 w on, 2 w off diet for 12 weeks, but 12 weeks on diet.

More importantly, studies have shown that XX develop best in a low glucose environment and so we believe it is best to continue skipping breakfast and snacks thru 5-7 DPO at the least.

HI Floral.

I think you did the right think having another attempt. Regardless of if it counts for 1-2 attempts (which is totaly irrelevant at this point) I suspect your odds of conception would have been poor sticking with one attempt CD 9. not impossible, but poor.

Not I nor anyone else can tell you what you're having! Please try to get out and about and stop thinking about "woulda coulda shoulda" because there is ALWAYS something that could have been changed in any sway. Remember, you could be staring at a negative test right now thinking "woulda, coulda, shoulda". As far as I'm concerned you did the right thing.

Thank you so much for your reply! Yes I actually think it was 1 attempt in fertile window as on day 9 when we DTD I had low fertility on the clearblue and a negative opk. I think my fertile window started on day 10 when the flashing smiley came and lasted to day 12 when I ovulated. So DTD on day 11 probably was one attempt in that window...

You're right there is always going to be something we wish we could have done better and I do just feel very thankful I got that BFP x
