suregena, when are you doing to BD?

I think either just as the OPK is turning positive or when it's positive... but just the once. Husband will be doing frequent release (he's 36... 37 in a week. I'm 26) from end of AF (at least once a day... he works 12 hours shifts and is up VERY early and home quite late, so don't want to overdo it and stress him out) to + OPK... and ideally he'll have already released at least once before we BD on +OPK day...

I think. :/ Timing, it's a tough one! That's the one bit I've remained with a ? over. I've always gotten pregnant first month trying. My son was the result of ONE time (haha, we were in Bruges on vacation!) after my second miscarriage, so I was still waiting for my period and had no idea I was ovulating (but, obviously, at that point we didn't care and were not preventing.)

Cool! Maybe we'll have girls born in the same month as well. Wishful thinking!!!

We're going to BD one time as soon as we get a +OPK. We were debating between FR and abstinence and decided DH should abstain. We DTD A LOT (like every single day from AF to AF) with previous pregnancies and got all boys, so we're trying opposite this time around.

I was going to do abstain but after reading something atomic posted about 36+ year olds being at risk for that, i.e. in terms of increased risk of disabilities/issues, that scared me off it. :/

I'm younger than him and he's probably super healthy (we're both already vegetarian and ideal weights) but that freaked me out a little!

DH and I are 25 and 26. It won't kill him to abstain for a couple days!! I'm sure he'll act like it's the end of the world though. I hope you get your BFP quickly!

Ahh, so abstain should work out nicely for you then! I'm 26 but hubbo is 37 in a week!

With my husband's craaaazy work hours, abstaining would have been easy-peasy for us. However, I am too scared to do it because of his age. :/ So I told him I'd "help him" with FR and he wouldn't have to do anything, himself. Hahahaha! :x
