Hi,

I'm on my 16th month of TTC 3rd baby. We have decided to try SMEP this month. I'm on CD11.
Anyone else tried this plan?

I have conceived 3 times using this plan (although I may have missed a day here and there... so roughly using the plan!)

Hi! Sorry can someone tell me what CD is? What starting on CD 8 means? I'll def try it as sounds like it works!

Good luck @Prayingfora2019bubba
We tried this plan in June last year and got our bfp! I would definitely recommend it!

@GemmaJen congratulations!!!
@sazzle3 SMEP is when you start DTD on CD8 for every other day until you get a positive ovulation and then you DTD 3 days in a row, miss a day and then 1 for luck!
I'm CD 10 so DTD twice so far x

What is the sperm meets egg plan we have been trying to conceive number 4 for almost 2 years xx

GemmaJen · 08/01/2019 19:40

We did it this month and got a bfp... Ended up with 4 days in a row so had to miss o day - exhausted. But caught up the day after and it obviously worked 👍

Yeah tried it for the last 3 months and got my positive test just before new year 🙌🏻 it can be hard going when that 3 days in a row comes round but in my experience worth it x
