Fertile window

[Sesamechick]

Morning all!

So according to a few apps, my fertile window is Feb 11-17th with Ovulation on the 16th.
When woild you say/how often should we be DTD for the best chance of getting pregnant?
We dtd on the 11th; last night we couldn't as DH was on shift. We are lucky as he does get to change his work schedule if need be.
Thanks all x

At least daily and maybe twice in your peak fertile days.

@Incrediblytired

Thanks!

I’d say 11th, 13th, 15th, 16th and 17th x

@Amz6219
Lucky him 🤣😉
Thanks so much! Out of curiosity why not the 14th?

Because you’ll be shattered 😂😂

But really because your window is to 17th so I’d say if you ovulate 16th/17th you’re covered without being worn out! Without using OPKs and knowing exactly when you ovulate, every other day with every day around predicted ovulation is a great method ☺️

We wound up doing 8 times in 12 days 😅 but I was using OPKs and did get BFP so was worth it! X

@Amz6219
🤣🤣🤣 brilliant
Makes sense thanks!
I'm sure he won't complain!
Congrats on your BFP! Xx

I got a pack of digital OPKs from Amazon for £6.50 (signed up to subscribe and save for 30% discount - then just cancelled).

It tells you when you are about to ovulate so you can focus on the next 2 days? Hence my twice a day suggestion! 😂

@Incrediblytired

Thanks for the suggestion but twice a day definitely not possible for us unfortunately!
With lockdown, zoom classes, 3 kids & no privacy it's impossible 🤣 I have ovulation sticks from Poundland and have been using them but don't want to drive myself crazy with them. Guess it's just all a frustrating and very long waiting game!
I'm so annoyed bc my fertile window is 11-17th with one app saying ovulation on the 16th and the other 17th. We have DTD the 11th and 14th. Was going to last night but DH wasn't feeling great. Hopefully tonight will and tomorrow.
Hope still in for a chance.

If you ovulate today then 14th is great! day of ovulation, day before and two days before are the best days :) x

Oh and I totally get you!!! Only have 1 child and I'm exhausted :-D x

@Amz6219

Thanks lovely!!! Fingers crossed xxxx

@Amz6219
