    Was this a one attempt or two attempt?

    Got first positive opk on sunday 5th july and temp rise on Friday 10th July. Was using clear blue digital ovulation test and got first smiley on the Sunday. Bd monday. Assumed had ovulated as you are supposed to ovulated usually 12 -48 hours after first smiley face. Bd again Wednesday night 8th July.

    Not charting as just had second miscarriage in a row (12 weeks and 10 weeks losses) 3 weeks ago. Got temp shift only on Friday but only taking temps around ovulation time.

    This is first cycle after miscarriage and got bfp on first response preg test today ( faint but positive).

    Just wondering was it a one attempt or a two attempt? J and d 5 minutes after both attempts

    Light sway only as only had 4 weeks of exercise, light diet ( heart not in it as had gone all out for last lost pregnancy)

    4 boys

    If your temp shift didn't actually occur until Friday then there is pretty much no way the BDing from Monday counted- I mean that is O-5 so I would consider it only 1 attempt personally.

    Thanks for replies - I just read somewhere that it can take up to 48 hours for thermal shift and sometimes 3 days - just surprised at clear blue digital test - ovulation occurring 4/5 days after first smiley face ?

    Dh wanted second attempt and thought I was safe with the clear blue digital. He had stopped taking LR for those 2 days and had way more stuff ( sorry for tmi). Hope jump and dump after 5 minutes helps!

    I agree it's pretty unlikely that the first attempt counted but I would consider BD Mon. night (which is when I'm assuming it was) to still be in with a shot. Le'ts say one and a half.

    Wouldn't it be O-3 (so 2 attempts in this case)? If the temp shift was Friday and ovulation was Thursday, Monday is 3 days before that? I'm not trying to prove you wrong or anything, just making sure I'm planning my BD using the correct calculations for my own sway

    That would be exactly how I would determine it. The good thing is we just never know for sure so we shouldn't stress
