Think it's safe to say I'm out this month... Faintest of faint lines on opk today and it's day 19 so implantation wouldnt be possible even if I do ovulate in next few days... But good luck to you all!

I think we might do this next month if no BFP this one.

This month we DTD on CD14, 15, 16, 17 (+OPK), 18 and I think I ovulated on 18/19. We really should have DTD last night (CD 19) too but honestly after all that, we were both bloody knackered and couldn't be bothered Grin

I think next month we will do SMEP and just do three in a row after positive OPK instead of so many before so we don't run out of steam Blush

@Mizz why are you out?? Is it because you've not had a positive opk?? You can def ovulate and not get a positve opk - they're not foolproof!

Okay so I have this EVERY MONTH and it's really annoying! I've started temping vaginally and thought it might make a difference but it hasn't (apart from higher temps)... I never know if I'm ovulating on CD 14 15 or 16. I got a positive opk then a little temp rise then ewcm then a bit temp rise over those few days... not sure if I believe FF. FF said I ovulated on CD16 last two cycles but this time CD14.

Any ideas? I know I'm covered either way as dtd plenty on SMEP but would be good to know for future months... and obv to know when I can realistically start poas!!

I haven't DTD anymore!! We were knackered from work and it was killing us being on a schedule. I don't think we have a chance as DTD like we have done historically but I guess I need to be positive

@Sshsecretenclosed on the picture it's the little days with the heart... We also did it every other day from Christmas Eve to NYE. I had a rouge OPK on 02/01/2018 so I just covered all bases. I then gave up from the 7th onwards. We were exhausted.

Thanks everyone. Hoping it a sticky one. X
