+ OPK but NO EWCM and NO pains????

Yea, we have to pretty much do evening attempts too, with kids....I know what you mean. Sperm count is higher in the morning, that's why that's recommended. I know some gals who woke up at like 5am to dtd so they had time to lay there before the storm of children decended upon them. I, personally, cannot even *think* of having sex at that absurd hour....I am so not a morning person. I think you should do what you guys are most comfortable with, ya know?

I was reading one of the posts elsewhere on the site and it was saying how the count is higher in the morning but better quality in the evening, we'd be needing the better quality for blue? I know my last dd's were all morning bd's. Also the morning usually includes a j&d doesn't it when the kids get up, the evening alows more time for the better quality to get into place maybe.

I agree with you, 8LP.....and I need quality with a 38yo DH! My girls were both conceived during the day with jump n dump, and we used to use KY also. Good grief, I was such a girl swayer!!!

You know, honestly I don't put much stock into the time of day to DTD because the study said something like 88 million in the morning and 87 million in the evening (not a big difference) but you are SO RIGHT about BD in the evening, with one of my boys and maybe two (I can't remember 100% LOL) I just laid there and went to sleep afterwards!

Oh jeez, that is hardly a difference in sperm count!

[atomic sagebrush]

Exactly!

Night time it is then ladies, mornings are too hard especially with teens in the house

Yea, and if you can make DH lay around for the majority of the evening (and all the better if he'll put some coldness to the balls while laying around), and you dtd around midnight, then it may SORT of simulate morning with a higher sperm count.

Good idea!!

I'm sure my DH will protest vehemently if I tell him to go chill on the couch all night.
