DTD every day or two attempts??

Thanks everyone. I guess I am just worried SMEP means I will def def def get another boy... It seems to be very boy friendly... So every day after AF to ov is just not going to work, do you think? Does it just lower the odds of conception because it reduces sperm count?

It is the worst of all possible worlds because not only may you end up swaying blue, you also don't up odds of conception and in fact may lower them. So you incur the risk of 3 attempts in fertile window for absolutely no benefit since you'll cut your odds of conception at the same time.

Ah - ok, thank you, that explains it really well. Well, fingers crossed for SMEP then! [emoji4]

Well I ovulated this morning I think, but I was so ill with a chest infection last week that we didn't dtd until Saturday. In the end, we dtd Saturday, Sunday and Monday. I hope it works... almost a year since I started the LE and I am just desperate to conceive now!! Please let this be the month!!

I've been following all your posts honeybee-I'm in much the same situation as you. Really got my fingers crossed for a BFP for you this month. Sending hugs

anyone who is not getting pregnant needs to drop herbal supps like vitex, saw palmetto, and pep tea. Just wanted to mention that in case anyone was using them.

Thanks for this thread, we've been trying to conceive since late 2013, and only 1 pregnancy (ectopic)
The last 2 months we DTD every day 2 days before OPK, and 2 days after OPK, and then the month after we DTD 2 days before OPK and 3 days after.
No BFP.
Reading your post atomic, I am thinking maybe he was just shooting dust lol.
Am going to try SMEP now
