Hi
I am new here and I read here in this thread that DTD on O-2 and on O gets more sperms in the crypts.
I am also trying for boy starting in October and until I saw this website I was under the impression that we need to DTD only on ovulation day.
Can someone tell me more about this getting spermies in the crypts theory?
Where is the link about this information?

Thanks.

Hi and welcome! Not to confuse you, but the thing about timing is it's not necessarily proven to be that much of a sway factor (it was more so on IG) and many of us disregard it altogether. I think I can speak for the group here and say that MOST of us are just trying to optimize sperm counts, which is where the dtd every other day comes in....and where the abstinence thing came in back on IG. You can certainly try to just dtd once on O day, but the problem is that you may, for some reason, miscalculate when you ovulated and therefore miss your egg entirely since you only did it once.

But basically, the sperm can live in you for several days, depending on how good your cm is (which is why having good ewcm is a big goal on this site), and then having a high count of sperm in there every time is also key (which is why dtd every other day and timing the last one right on top of your ovulation has become something we think is a good timing plan). Of course, this requires you to track your ovulation for several months with opks so you know your "pattern" leading up to your ovulation so you can time it right. For example, I know that when my opk is nearly positive on one afternoon at 4pm, it will be very positive the next day, and then I will ovulate a day later. So, we dtd that first day and then again on the O day, getting an O-2 and O timing there. Make sense? I hope I did not confuse you!

All that being said, MANY MANY moms of boys here commented that they got their boy by dtd EVERY day....see this thread:

http://genderdreaming.com/forum/show...e-got-our-boys!

AND, if you look at charts on Fertility Friend that say "pregnant with boy," most of them have dtd every day or every other day. Most of us have obsessively looked at those, LOL.

Hope this helps!

Oh yeah, I have heard that in a movie. Funny! I wonder who Jon Thomas was, and what made him so special?

I love you ladies! We're prudish on these terms for some reason. For my girls everything inside the panties is their tushy. We haven't yet decided on what we, and the girls, will publicly call guy stuff. So far dd1 has said she won't change diapers because of the "dangly thing" but we won't be using that lol Not around the girls I use gear, junk, little friend etc yeah yeah I'm five lol

[WashingtonPromise]

Wow, we are no long G rated lol!!! For our girls...bobo and boys....weinie. I don't remember how it came about, but there it is. And for the record I have never heard member, but I don't really talk about it to other people besides DH....Oh and you guys.

I posted on the 2WW thread about this, but I figure some of you guys may not visit. I have been having the same icky feeling in the evening, like I had last month with the chem preg. It is just kind of confusing. I will be very interested to see if I get a BFP or if it is just going to be common for me in the 2WW.

[3Pink1Blue]

fx it's a bfp!

[LolaInLove]

Yea, I'm excited about seeing some test results, WP!

[Tink18]

Silly me I was trying to be PG...with member. I guess I forgot where i was. Last night DH and I were talking and I said "I just cant believe we are pregnant again, Can you" with the cockiest look on his face, he goes "umm look at me, I wake up and piss excellence" So my birth board from DD is convinced I am having twins because I got a bfp so early and it took so long with DD. As well as Dh thinks Im having twins too. I dont think so, the possiblity of twins 2 times around has to be pretty low...Plus losing DD's twin is still bitter for me. I just want a healthy sticky bean. That's all I care about. I drempt last night i had a really chubby blue eyed baby With no name. I kept telling DH to name him or I would name him Enzo. I like that name. When I drempt about DD, I always drempt girl, so we shall see. I HAVE A LONG WAY TO GO.
