Ok I'm going to re-test again soon so I'll update but that's what I was sort of thinking - wait until morning to give him some extra time to "repopulate" - ha!!
When we conceived my 2nd, we had like 5 or 6 daily attempts leading up to the day of ovulation (or day before - can't remember), so from that it seemed we can def get pregnant w/ daily attempts (meaning low sperm count wasn't an issue). I know obviously in that case those 5 or 6 attempts were all W/O condom so LOTS of sperm got in there but he must not have run too low before I hit my fertile days. We got pregnant on the first shot w/both boys so we were def super fertile then... Maybe if we wait till morning he'll have recovered enough to still give us a shot this cycle!![]()

Nacire your description of growing up hearing your brothers talking and laughing, seeng their bond pretty much sums up why I'm hoping more and more for boy #3 🙁
ABC agree with LMSM that if tonight's opk is a clear positive then bd tomorrow sometime. Thing is most people would just test once a day so really if you were doing that then tomorrow would be your first positive anywayYou should still o the day after tomorrow (if you fall within the average) Good luck!!!! And definately post a pic of your opks so we can take a look 😀
Iwant4kids can you post your chart link again? I removed it when you stopped temping 😀
LMSM cannot wait for the next few days temp!
Netti woohoo so good to see you here!!! Have you asked Atomic what she thinks would be best in your situation for FR or abstain? I think it would be worthwhile getting her opinion while you have time. Detail your ages, your usual bd frequency, what frequency and attempts you used for your 5 boys (the ones you remember anyway) She may recommend something different than the norm for you given your strong natural inclination towards blue.... also there's a lady on here called fiveboys? I think her username is that is pregnant with a dd after 5 boys and she posted a sway. Might be worth checking it out if you haven't already. Also are you doing LE diet even lightly? From memory you were pretty loose with the diet and I know you had more than one attempt when you conceived ds5.

Thanks pbn. Pattern with all boys was bd every other day so 3/4 frequency. Ive always fallen pretty quickly so im wanting to try something different. I have been skipping breakfast but thats about it. With shift work its pretty hard plus winter is not my friend but ive been trying. Havent been exercising either hence why im trying a completely different approach with the frequency thing.
Ill pop up a post. DH just turned 35 so no worried about that.
I do worry about his ability for everyday though 😂

ABC, for what it's worth I never get a line darker than the control line and I seem to be using the same opk's as you. Have you double checked with a digi? Mine looked the same as yours on the cheapie but the digi gave me a positive. I ovulated right after, but would have missed it had I not double checked with digi since I would have considered the cheapie a negative.
Got crosshairs today!! I'm 1-3dpo depending on when I actually O'd. Going in for u/s tomorrow to check my lining. [emoji322]

Ok I don't think I'm going to like OPKs!
So I just tested again and I picked up another brand at the store today too (not digital maximbella... I guess if I can't figure these Easy Home ones out I'll have to splurge for the digitals!!!). But the test line on the other brand was DEF way lighter than control line. The Easy Home they were almost the same color - test line maybe slighter lighter still. Pics of both below.
Eeek! So maybe I should still just wait until tomorrow, test early afternoon, and plan on probably BD-ing tomorrow?
Thanks!!!!

ABC, that's weird that was taken with the same sample? The easy home looks positive to me?! Don't let me discourage you, I do think I'm an outlier with opk's. most of my girlfriends used them with no problems or uncertainly whatsoever. I think I'm in the minority that they might cause undue stress honestly.
Thanks Cosmo! Really hoping this is it for me....

Maaaax – so happy to see you here – I did stalk your chart, looking good young lady! Woohoo
ABC – sounds like a good plan – like PBN says you probs won’t O straight away anyhow so should be a good one attempt
Looks like you are one heck of a fertile couple – so his swimmers are super effective haha so it’s hence less likely that the previous BD would have had too much on an impact (as in – lowered the count TOO much – should be just right ^^).
Keep us posted!
Edit: you psoted as I typed – did you have the same amount of liquid before peeing, did you hold just as long? That may make a difference!
Netti so glad to see that DH is willing to let you try this month!!! Woohoo!
FX so hard you get pregnant this month and even better, with your much longed for girl <3
PBN - you and me both! it’s crazy, I feel so schizophrenic at the moment, one second going “omg am so preggers” to the next “ am so having AF soon”….
I did receive a very special present yesterday – a beautiful pink quartz bracelet along with some other things including kind words – and it’s lifted my spirit so much, so will keep being positive!
I’ve now had a chance to read you in more detail – and agree the description of your kids (or your siblings) sleeping in the same room sounds dreamy!
We have 4 bedrooms (ours, DD1’s which is medium sized, DD2’s which is effectively the smallest and the nursery, and a large roiom which currently serves as a playroom) – I had mentioned to Dh that when #3 tags along, after we keep bub with us for that while at first, we should move bub to the nursery and have our two girls together…and keep the playroom as their common room (or even swap, and have the girls have the large room and make DD1’s current room the playroom)..he doesn’t want to, saying we have enough rooms for each to have their own.
He has a sister, and grew up sharing the bedroom for lack for space – and I think he is very attached to each kid having their space (I would only have them be in the same room if they wanted to, of course – since we have the space/choice). Sigh
Oh and the guy that came in to see me this morning was a guy from Boston, which made me think of all you lovely US ladies (yes, you are on my mind even at work!)Lucky Mummy to 4 sweet divas (2013) (2015) (2018) (2021) and 1 sweet boy (2024) that completed our family
