I finally got my "happy face" on the OPK test...

sportsmom2 · #1 July 27th, 2009, 04:43 AM

Amazingly enough, it was the last test of the 7 in the box. I had already decided I would buy another kit if I got another empty circle (apparently I don't know my body at all and started testing way too early)... So I was super happy to see that cute little

this morning.

So girls, it's 7:40am and I haven't dtd since Friday night... I will bd this morning, and then when else would be a good time? Then when do I start counting dpo's? After today or tomorrow??

I am so excited... I was scared I wasn't going to "O" at all!

personally, I would DTD today and then Wednesday, but that's just me...

Congrats on getting a

! I have read two different theories on the frequency of bding when you are oing....one theory says everyother day gives the sperm time to "replenish themselves", the other says that if the man is healthy, everyday works better. I myself feel that the more trying, the better the odds are! So, I say tonight or tomorrow morning! Good luck hun

I would BD as much as you can starting today and for the next few days. G/L!

Congrats on the happy face and I hope you get a BFP Dianna!

Thanks everyone....

Ok, so I have another problem now... sniff, sniff. Actually, it's really my DH. He is having trouble in the department of, ummm, keeping it up. Is that TMI? He said the pressure is really getting to him, so I am freaking out a bit.

This is our chance for this cycle and we have hit a major road block. We have tried twice today without any results.

OMG- will this ever happen?

Honestly, sometimes I think men are better off NOT knowing what is going on! Maybe let him sleep a bit and then "wake him up" ....maybe you can get his "full attention" before he remembers just why it is you want to baby dance? I don't know.....if not tonight, maybe tomorrow......and if you don't get your BFP this month, then next month I wouldn't tell him when you O, to keep the pressure off of him!

i agree with not telling your dh too much. It can turn into a chore or add pressure. Let him think you are just extra frisky now

missy123 · #9 July 27th, 2009, 07:05 PM

I would give him a few drinks, relax him a little, and have fun!

I like Missy's idea

I hope you were able to get some bd'ing in, and that you catch that eggie! Good luck!!

Third times the charm... we were finally "successful" last night, now I hope and pray it's enough! I will try the drinks and relaxation method tonight so maybe we can get one more shot at this before we have the 2ww.

Well I don't chart or opk or anything so not much help there. But DH and I just BD the whole month because we learned after that when I get a BFP I get pelvic rest and there is no BD for 9 months plus. So we stock up LOL. Everyday worked for us

. I had the weeks figured out for number two but I never told DH. He probably knew though. I hope you guys catch the egg and get a BFP in a couple weeks.
