Should we have sex tonight?!

[EagerTTCer]

We are in month 7 of TTC. I will be undergoing next stage fertility tests in the new year. However my initial bloods and scan, and DH's sperm analysis, showed no problems.

I am ovulating tomorrow. I've just realised that we have DTD on the day before ovulation every single month so far and it has never worked

We DTD yesterday afternoon and this morning. Planning to DTD tomorrow morning but should we do it later tonight too?

If sperm count is good then the more the better! Good luck.

I was 7 months into TTC when I realised I ovulated on CD 7-9 and the month we tried on those dates we fell pregnant, could you be ovulating earlier that you realise?

I use OPK sticks and the PreMom app which works out my ovulation date. I tend to get some EWCM and some tramples a couple of days before the LH surge. This month I am also trying BBT temping.

It really depends on him. If less sperm then better to wait 24 hours, if fine go for it! Also are you using a conception lubricant? I think this was what made the difference for me!

I think you should be trying as often as possible, daily will give you the best chance.

We’ve decided to give it a go later this evening, as a scientific experiment

Reason being that when we are both working we have never in a million years been able to have sex twice in one day, so given that we’re both off this week we’ll do it twice today and twice tomorrow (ovulation day) and see what happens!

I do have some of the Conceive Plus tubes @MsChatterbox but I found the recommended amount in each one was far too much and (tmi) made it had for DH to climax. Maybe I’ll just use a bit

Not sure what ‘tramples’ meant in my last post - twinges perhaps?!

Good luck!

I conceived in month 8/ cycle 8 two times. It's obviously my lucky cycle 😂. The odds are in your favour to have conceived by May

Good luck OP. How old are you if you don't mind me asking?

@EagerTTCer Go for it! www.avawomen.com/avaworld/how-often-should-you-have-sex-to-get-pregnant/

I’m now on month 9 TTC baby no.1. My initial testing shows no problems - DP hasn’t got his swimmers checked yet. We are both early 30s.

I recently got gifted an AVA bracelet from a lady on here (so kind) so I’m hoping this helps pinpoint ovulation and then we will also try multiple times a day just to give it a whirl since it’s not worked with every other day or any other pattern we have tried. Good luck!!!

Yes!

Just do it as often as you both want to. Actually I think you should be trying as soon as you notice EWCM. That's the classic sign of ovulation and what women looked for in the days before OPKs. Good luck.

Good luck OP. How old are you if you don't mind me asking?

I have NCed for this so don’t mind saying I am 39 next month! DH is 41. In our area, if we need NHS IVF then I need to start it before I’m 40. That’s why the hospital are keen to get me in for a HyCoSy in the next couple of months. And equally, it’s why I’m doing everything to try to conceive this month or next!

My Day 21 bloods are fine but I haven’t had my Day 3 ones done yet (GP refused to do them ) so these also need doing. I have also had an ultrasound scan and was told all looked ok. So at the moment I think it’s just because I’m old and so are my eggs… or it could be something that hasn’t come to light yet.
