A little bit tired but it's only month 3 of trying so we are still keen and I think it's true that the more you do it, the more you want it Sorry to lower the tone :rotfl:
I just wasn't sure if it might effect the chances, I figured the more BD the better but just wanted to check because I keep seeing things saying every other day.

I would have thought that the quality in the sperm would be lower? It lives for 3 days inside anyway so every other day should technically be more than enough.

YAY! Congratulations Mrs_T_M! :j:j:j:j

Also YAY! For Part Mouse :j:j:j:j fingers crossed for you!

A quick question if you don't mind please ladies. I don't know if this is a silly one or not but when TTC is there such thing as too much BDing?
I was looking at some Sperm Meets Egg Plan and that said to BD every other day until OV and then every day for 3 days.
Hubby and I BD-ed every day from CD8 until yesterday CD23, I just wondered if there was a reason for them saying every other day? Is that just so you don't get to tired and you should be covered if you need a rest? If you BD every day do the swimmers not work as well?
Feel silly for asking lol

Also please can I be updated to Awaiting AF thank you x

I'm glad you asked this as I'd be interested to know too. We tend to BD most days anyway, just for fun. I think OH would be far from happy if we had to do it less to TTC

Aww brilliant news MrsTM. Huge congrats!

Also well done Part Mouse collie! Hope this is your month too.

(And mine, :rotfl:) xx

On the phone with DH (he always calls on his way home from work). I have the camera that can record video set up to catch this. He's about 20-30 minutes away and I'm nauseated from the excitement!

Yes this is what I was wondering, I don't know if it loses it potency or whether OH will just be producing more once those supplies are used up.

Exactly, seems a shame to BD less when you are having fun but I was just curious if it made a difference. I have seen lots of conflicting info.

Ooh yay mrs t m so pleased for you! You must let us know your dh reaction!

Bd frequency wise - both times I got pg we did it every day in the 2-3 days before ov & ov. So 3-4 in a row. The rest of the month we hardly did it at all lol!

Mrs_T_M

He squeeked!

Only things different this cycle: I actually ate meat/protein more, and we only dtd once this entire month :eek: and that was 2 days before I ov'd!

Thank each and every one of you for making me so welcome all this time. I hope to see every one of you in the other boards, and soon! I will still be lurking.
