By my ovulation app and my clearblue ovulation fixed smiley I ovulated today or yesterday I DTD on the Sunday Fridays Thursday and Wednesday lol (poor hubby) do I continue to have sex now or wait to see if my period comes. I'm really down in the dumps today and no in the mood to DTD all I want is a little baby Blush

Well hopefully you will get yours too. Me and hubby were very surprised at the BFP - it was our first month of trying and we'd only had sex 3 times. But, I guess it just takes one time at the right time.

I hope you get your BFP too - my fingers are crossed for you Smile

ps) you can never provide TMI on Mumsnet - I don't think any of us have any shame. TTC isn't exactly a glamorous business Grin

I think I ovulated on the 8th July and me and hubby had DTD on the 3rd, 6th and 8th. We got a BFP from it so as has been said, I think as long as sex is being had leading up to ovulation there is a good chance it will happen Smile

Best of luck x x

Your egg will only live for around 24 hours after ovulation so sex post O needs to be within that timeframe. But if you have had sec in the 2 - 5 days pre O that would also have been in your fertile window

Sperm will live inside you for a couple of days so you don't need to DTD every day, I'd say you can prob afford to wait for a morning quicky. I am sorry you feel so down, I know the feeling, me and DP have been trying for over a year and a half.
