Clearblue ovulation and DTD

[Mib1990]

Hi guys,after some advice regarding peak and best DTD times

21st November - 1st day of period

29th November - negative fertility circle

30th November - flashing smiley. We DTD on this date.

I then had 13 days of flashing smileys.

1st Dec - we DTD

3rd Dec - we DTD

4th Dec - we DTD

8th Dec - we DTD

9th Dec - we DTD

12th Dec, AM it was a flashing smiley. But at 11PM it was a solid smiley indicating peak so we DTD that night.

13th Dec - couldn't DTD

14th Dec - DTD at 10.30am

Hoping to DTD tonight (14th Dec)

My question is have I reduced my chances as we didn't DTD the 2 days before peak and also because we couldn't DTD day after peak?

Really worried and stressed

Do we need to DTD tomorrow as well?

Hello @Mib1990

I’m very new to this myself but just from other threads I’ve read recently and doing online research I think you have a great chance and should be covered

I think when you get your peak static smiley you are suppose to ovulate 12-36 hours after this so the best time to dtd is the day of peak and the days leading up to it.

Sperm can survive up to 5 days and I think it’s better for the sperm to be there waiting for the egg when it’s released rather than the other way around.

Seems like you’ve dtd on the days leading up to and likely day of ovulation which is good.

Sending you lots of luck!

@newbiemg thank you so much for your kind words, it's so stressful! Fingers crossed, all the best for you too
