Im curious to hear of other ladies' experiences 😊. We had been trying for a few months, dtd lots of times and then the one month i fell pregnant we only dtd once! Unfortunately it ended in miscarriage.

I'm now on my second cycle post miscarriage

I think it was cycle day 8. I ovulated on day 10 and DTD then too but I imagine it was the sperm already waiting that won the race!

Sorry about your miscarriage OP Flowers

Have you been tracking your LH levels? I found this really helpful as we found out that I ovulate much earlier than expected.

Hey @PinkPlantCase thank you so much for replying! Ive been using clearblue connected, i have a 27 day cycle and usually get my peak on cd15. We dtd cd 11,13&15 last month...might have to go 12,14,16 this month 😂😂 xxx

@Tina12745 I was wondering the same thing! I read somewhere that if you dtd a lot, it weakens the quality of the semen/the semen isn't as 'concentrated'. Therefore, doing it less means the quality/concentration is better - not sure how accurate this is.

I have a 26 day cycle and DTD on cycle day 9 and 11 and am now 31 weeks. I think DTD earlier in your cycle and see what happens

My first pregnancy was the first month trying and we only DTD on days 10 and 17, so it came as a massive surprise. Unfortunately the pregnancy ended in a MMC.

I fell pregnant again 4 months later and on that cycle we DTD on days 10, 12, 14, 16 and 18. I do not track my ovulation but have pretty regular 29 day cycles.

@sak96x actually quality and quantity makes a huge difference. DTD often affects quantity, not quality of sperm.
