I'm so sorry this is such a hard time for you! I was thinking, I don't know if you chart at all, but that is something you could do on your own without DH's help to better understand when you are O'ing and better predict what days are best without OPKs (if he is still resistive to using them). We tried for 2 months after m/c and I started charting the third month on fertility friend using the free version of it. I found that understanding my cycle made it a lot easier to pick the right days. I was using OPKs too, but honestly the positive OPK perfectly matched the day I had a big temp change, so I kinda knew it was coming even without the OPK. That might be a first start too to helping DH understand just how hard it is to hit the right day if he sees your chart and you can explain to him the narrow window you have on paper versus just talking about it. Just a thought. I hope he comes around to using them, I think it would make you feel more confident about the TTC process. It did for me, and we did get pregnant the month I started charting and using the OPKs! Good luck!!
