Did I mess up my sway?
So, I finally got a +OPK yesterday, 2 days later than usual. DH has been releasing daily since CD1, and we have been DTD unprotected daily since CD8. Yesterday, CD13, was our last day DTD, since I was hoping for a 1-day cut-off. I used a whole tube of Rephresh on CD8, CD11, then topped up with 1/4-1/2 a tube yesterday about 7 hours before our last attempt. After we DTD, I lay for about 10 minutes, then headed to the bathroom to clean up. I normally don't test my PH since I often don't get a reading at all, but out of curiosity I pulled out my PH strips and tested. I had a 7, which I suppose wasn't surprising since I was still full of DH's semen. I had a panic moment, though, and for some reason pulled out the Represh, put a pea-size amount on my finger tip, and literally just touched it to the opening of my V (I didn't put my finger inside at all). Immediately afterwards I regretted it. Was that enough to kill the few sperm that were left after 13 days of daily release?? I reallllly want to get pregnant this cycle - should I make an O-day attempt (today, which is CD14) to cover my bases? I was going to avoid O-day since that's when all of my boys were conceived.... Help!

I also wanted to mention that it would be very tricky to DTD tonight because my Mother will be visiting and sleeping in the next room. It would take a lot of convincing to get DH to give it a try.

I'd leave it, but that is just my opinion. Good Luck!

Do you mean you don't think I messed up my chances of getting pregnant? It's worth mentioning I'm 36....

I'd leave it too. Even after daily release, there is always enough sperm for fertilization ( basically, you need just 1 spermie LOL!)
Girl diet and timing do mess chances to get pg, and what you did ( RePhresh) wasn't a big deal Imho. Maybe you killed all y-swimmers and gave the best chance to x onesm/c 2001

Thanks, ladies - you're making me feel better. I was trying not to worry about PH or timing this time around since those were my obsessions last time I swayed. I hope you're right and it wasn't enough to kill all the sperm. I just so desperately want to get off this awful diet that I want to make sure I didn't ruin my chances of getting pregnant. I've always been fertile in the past (though those times were all before I was 35), so hopefully I still have a chance.

I agree with the others mocha, I'm sure you didn't ruin your chances and I'm keeping everything crossed for a BFP x

Atomic, this may sound crazy but I’ve been reading about moon phases… I have a ‘red moon cycle’ currently which I didn’t used to have. Meaning my period is coinciding with the full moon. From...
