May I reccommend opks. I got my bfp after one month of using them. I just really felt it helped me know exactly when ovulation was happening...and as according to the sperm meets egg plan we bd'ed 3 days in a row following a positive test. Appears to have worked, and I just felt it eliminated the when am I actually ovulating guess work. I know everyone is different, but for me it alleviated pressure rather than adding pressure.

I don't think they'd work for us as we already put pressure on ourselves. I work 9-5 and OH works 12-10 so we hardly see each other. Of course we try to BD when it counts but it's not always possible to get it down to the day. I think OPKs would stress us out too much.

Oh gosh that is tough! We both do 9-5 and still struggle to fit it in!! This is rather sneaky...but I told oh afterwards Id done it and he didn't mind....I only told oh afterwards that I'd used opks...meant any pressure from a positive one was on me and not on him cos he didn't realise that I was initiating it based on a positive opk! Other oh's might get annoyed, but it worked for us!

OH doesn't want me to be putting pressure on myself and I'm kind of fed up of it all falling down to me, so I'm quite liking the idea of chilling out with it.

The hours are an absolute pain.

Day two of spotting here and there for me, rather strange as normal my af is heavy heavy all the way through, this seems to be taking a soft run up.... my last af was unusually light as well for 5 days. I so desperately wanted to be pregnant this time

Right so I was taking December off, and went out last Friday night, got really really drunk (making good use of the company funded bar), came home at 3am and jumped OH. didn't bother temping on sat as I was hugging the toilet feeling rather sorry for myself. Temp rocketed this morning and FF says I Od on Saturday! !!!!!!! I wasn't paying any attention to cycle days- just logging temps every morning - except of course what now turns out the most important one! Curses drunk self!! Do you think I unwittingly bd at the right time?!

Can I log cd19, 3dpo please x
