Is it true about taking robitusm an hour before you BD when you are ovulating?? That it will help make the fluid so the sperm can travel easier?? Has anyone tried it??
What about BD every other day when you are fertile? Is that best or is it better to do it every day?
What ever works is what i want to do!

I have a book that recommends making love every day for five days beginning 5 days before your ovulation day (Getting Pregnant Lauersen & Bouchez). The key thing being that the very second that you ovulate that there is sperm at hand, and sperm lives I think for 3 days, while an egg only lives for 24 hours. So the key thing is to work out which day of your cycle you usually ovulate. I found taking my temperature a wast of time, but using a saliva based test very effective.

I heard this Melliek on fertility friend. It seems popular in America (is that where u are?). I'm not sure of the ins and outs, whne etc... Have a look at www.fertilityfriend.com, you get a months free trial, it's grt! I got pg first month using it.
Also, I took evening primrose oil that month, as it increases CM, I never seemed to have much and the month I conceived, ooh la la!
