Hi ladies.
I bought the advanced clear blue OPKs and was just wondering if I should DTD when I get a high reading or wait for a peak reading?

I usually use the internet cheapies and wait for any sign of a second line - you'd ovulate within hours/a day or so after that and sperm will hang around for a few days once you've DTD so you should be covered. I guess for Clearblue as soon as you get a high reading - don't wait for peak or there's a good chance you'l miss it.

Definitely peak!
My Ovulation Chart currently TTC, Cycle #16 since last BFP

Dec 2001 - May 2006 : 5 early abortions of healthy singletons (3 medical @5w, 2 surgical @8w, last 4 pregnancies conceived with late DH, all conceived while TTA/on birth control)
Mar 2012: miscarried B/G twins @5w (conceived 2 cycles after remověng Paraguard copper IUD while NTNP), one twin was ovarian ectopic

Hi,
I DTD the day I got my peak. I got pregnant that month.
I'm currently trying again. We DTD the day of my last high (day before my peak) for the last 2 months due to my shifts, we are only having 1 attempt a month so it's difficult. There must be some truth in it because DTD on a high hasn't worked for us as with my last 3 pregnancies, we've always DTD on a peak and got pregnant. Good luck xx
