Hi all,

So with all the apps I have, predicted ovulation dates were 17th, 18th, 19th and 22nd (!!)
Anyways, we DTD 15th & 16th. We were away 17th, 18th and back home19th and couldn't DTD as we were sharing a room with the kids. I left my OPK strips at home so had no idea, although I had EWCM on the 19th (DH too exhausted to DTD on 19th)
Anyways today I took 3 OPK tests at different times and the last 2 are both peak and quite clearly positive (pics attached)
My question is when best to DTD? Tonight, tomorrow and Monday?
Did DTD on 15th & 16th give me a chance or do those 2 dates not count?
Thank you so much!!!

Sperm can live in the body for ages, something like 5 days or so. The 15th and 16th are within that time range so should be OK
Your egg will live for 24 hours so theres still a chance of catching it if you're quick
Otherwise, should be OK. Fx and baby dust!

I'm hoping if we DTD tonight and tomorrow it will increase our chances.

You likely are ovulating today, going by later pic. Just DTD the next few nights to raise your chances!
