Questions about upcoming attempt!

[strawberrybella89]

Had to skip this month and move my attempt to next month. My periods and ovulation have been spot on for months. I am due to ovulate Feb 15 so what day should I do my one attempt? Feb 11 or 12?

Are you doing OPKs? If so have an attempt whenever it's positive.

Are you including timing in your sway? If you are that's ok but the theory has been debunked and having an attempt 3/4 days before O does cut odds of conception without upping odds of a girl. I agree with going at +opk which is more likely Feb 13 or 14.

I'm doing the babydust method so 1 attempt 3 days before

Well, I don't recommend that method but personally I'd err on the side of caution and have the attempt on the 12th since going on the 11th may be really really low chances of conception.

What kind of timing do you recommend?

Atomic will generally recommend as KS suggested above which is to have your one attempt at +opk, likely being O-1.

One attempt in the fertile window but without the cutoff. 3 days before ovulation is really slim chances of conception. You are much better off having that one attempt either on O-2 or O-1 because those two days of the cycle are by far and away better odds of conception than O-3. We have seen so few successful conceptions with O-3 that it seems to be all but a recipe for BFN.

Positive OPK is just an easy peasy way of being in with one attempt somewhere in the neighborhood of O-2/O-1. That first positive OPK is on average 24-36 hours before ovulation occurs so by having attempt at pos OPK you guarantee your attempt falls on O-2/O-1 range. There's no magic to it, the magic is the one attempt...the positive OPK is just an easier way of having that one attempt at a point in time you actually have a good chance of conceiving from it.

Ooh I see! I got my boys with one attempt on ovulation day or o-1 so hopefully o-2 one attempt is better
