Alright...here is what I was thinking...Bobbie has positve OPKs for a week and her poor older model (lol, I believe that is what she called him) is having a hard time keeping up...so am I wrong, but can't spermies live inside you 2 to 5 days after ejaculation? I know the more soldiers you have trudging thru the canal the better, but shouldn't every other day be enough? I just don't want Bobbie to kill him off (LOL). Oh and Bobbie when you read this, remeber I love you!

It's very true, and I've read that if you space it out a little (like every other day instead of every day) you get better QUALITY sperm too.

So sorry Dave, but this is crutial!

Here's what I think... seeing as there's like a 5 day fertile period during your cycles, I'm thinking if you DTD two days in a row, rest one day, and then DTD again for two more days straight you should be able to catch the eggie in time! Like Judy mentioned, sperm can live up to 5 days in the right conditions.

I always read that sperm are viable for 24-72 hrs. I vote for the every other day. Or maybe two in a row then every other.

Hee hee....My dh gets worn out too!!! And he's one that says he could bd every single night and never get tired of it! So, when we are TTC, we do it every night for like 5 or 6 nights (just to be sure!!), and he actually gets tired of it too!

Poor Dave!! It'll all be worth it in the end though!!

LMAO....

How did I miss this thread.... and how did you know I was getting a bit depressed and needed a laugh???

I am all for the every other day. We even tried that one month It worked pretty well!

HE is the one who ummmm *starts it* most of the time.

I think he feels his clock ticking more than me sometimes. But it's still fun to pick on him! He takes it soo well... and even gives it back

I wonder what he will think when I show him the REALLY dark OPK (AGAIN! for the fifth day in a row) that I am gonna post?

Ohhhh and did I tell you girls? We even give the sperm a pep talk while they are racing to the tubes....

I really have gone


Oh.... and I bought four more tests yesterday. I think I am up to about 25 just waiting to be peed on. Are you girls ready to help me obsess over lines? It will only be a couple days now...run while you can
