Question

Intercourse timing?

Hi ladies, I need your thoughts. So my follicle scan yesterday showed 2 at 17mm and 1 at 14. I got my Peak on Clear Blue yesterday morning CD11. We BD'D on CD8 and CD10. But we just couldn't manage yesterday as hubby was exhausted. ???? Going to try for tonight CD12.

Do you think I will still be in with a chance??

No trigger shot as they said I would ovulate on my own but hadn't by yesterday lunchtime when I had my scan. Just doing assisted timed intercourse this cycle. Thanks xx

It looks like your temperature is on the rise side of ovulation and I suspect FF will give you cross hairs on CD 11. If you got your peak in the morning and still hadn't ovulated by lunchtime then you should Bd today. The egg can live for up to 24 hours and I think you are still in that window.

Thank you! I'm hoping the BDing on CD10 will give us a chance too xx

I think it will! Here is my chart from my BFP. We caught the egg with BDing the day before ovulation. Our BDing back then was always around midnight so that put both those BDing around ovulation around 48 hours apart. Which I think was important for us. Most other cycles we just tried every day up until ovulation but I think that had a negative effect on his Sperm.

To be honest I thought we were out that cycle because we didn't BD on ovulation day or the day after like we normally did.

Thank you! That really makes me feel better. We are just struggling to keep up with 3 days in a row. I think every other day is the best we can manage these days xx

Every other day is how it happened for us recently. I wasn’t tracking, but that’s how things were basically going anyway. Definitely BD today!!

We did O-2, O-1 and O+1. I was so mad we couldn't BD on O day, but everything turned out fine and we are now 14 weeks with baby girl! I would say keep going if you can, but don't stress about missing a day here and there. Good luck!!

@lissa thank you! We just put so much pressure on ourselves to try all the fertile days. Takes the fun out of it sometimes xx

If you ovulated yesterday, it was probably evening time or maybe nighttime, so I definitely think today would be helpful and the CD could do it as well! Your hubby has no issue with sperm or sperm quality, so those suckers can live for a while!

Checking in—are you testing soon or waiting it out? I hope you’re feeling well. That dip in your chart today has me curious....
