Hi All, I'm on cycle day 11 doing the SMEP! Praying it'll work this month with preseed. Anyone else doing it this month?

@paintfairy - this is my first attempt using Preseed and SMEP together! My OH said he felt it's was very slippery! I thought.. as long as you don't slide out we will be okay

@littletandme Good luck! You'll have to keep us updated on how you find it!

@Lnix I've been trying for 15 months. I take it as..

DAY 1 - Positive Ovulation test
Day 2 - ovulation day
Day 3 - 1DPO

So tomorrow will be 1DPO SmileGrin

@Lnix Technically if you got your surge yesterday, today you ovulate, tomorrow is 1dpo. However, on reading it doesn't always work like that. You can ovulate quite soon after the surge. They say 12-36 hours but can be longer or shorter. So it's a bit finger in the air. Lol.
Anyway- I got my peak Wednesday morning too so we are at the same point!

Me! First time SMEP but 7 months trying overall. Also trying preseed.

I have a question about calculating days post ovulation though. I don't do temping so I don't know exactly when post ovulation is. I got a very strong positive OPK Wednesday morning so does that mean I am 1 DPO today, Thurs morning? Or do I add 24 hours to my surge, guess that pinpoints approx ovulation, and then I'm 1 DPO Friday morn?? 🤔

Yes I'm also doing it and will use preseed closer to ov, only CD7 today.

Me! First attempt. Positive OPK yesterday. Cycle day 12 today. Also got pre-seed - not overloading with that, just using a bit?
