Thread: Timing question

  1. #1

    Timing question

    OK, guys, I need your help.
    We BDed Tuesday night 23:30, and I think I probably Oed night between Wed and Thursday.

    What are my chances to get pg more then 24 hours before O? I know there were some percentages, but I can't remember where? Or maybe these were percentages about gender rate? You see how old I am?

    Another q: I was suposed to O on Friday, I didn't use OPKs this time, so in case I O on Friday, should I BD tonight as well?
    Sorry about all the confusion! TIA!

    Well, I'd say there is definitely a chance! Sperm can live for days so there could have been some waiting on that egg! Did you do any of the other swaying stuff?

    Thank you!
    I did it all: diet, lemon water, BSD, BSF, supplements, ions ( sitting in front of computer as much as I can), you name it. I always screw up timing, it is very hard for me to pinpoint my O date. I checked CM and CP.
    CP SHOW from Monday.
    I'm sorry for all my questions, I'll probably get another BFN, so no need to panic in advance

    Oh, good. Well, the big study we have on here that looked at both timing and diet had the couples use a cutoff and 3-4 days before O was the biggest group of girl babies. Only 2 of the study participants DTD with a one day cutoff because they were all trying for girls(those 2 just messed up timing trying for a girl) so I would say that you are in boy territory with that timing for sure.

    The study also looked at sodium/potassium and calcium/magnesium intake together with timing.

    Now, if you are going to O Friday, I would consider trying again to get some fresh ones in there because I would be a little nervous of that cutoff for a boy. I am sure Atomic will chime in when she gets a chance. She knows more than I.

    Did I answer this already?? If I did, I'm sorry.

    They are EXCELLENT at 24 hours before O. The day before ovulation is when 26% of all the BD that leads to conceptions take place! And BD two days before ovulation is when 28% of all conceptions take place. (only 5% take place on O day!!)

    I would absolutely BD again if you think you may O on Friday. If you really did O on Wed. night, the egg is dead and gone now so you have no risk of an O+12.
