I'm Currently Feeling:  | Bding and OPKs - advice...
Hi all!
I had a mc on 11th March and are now back to ttcing!
We decided to follow Deannas plan to see if it increased our chances of BFP.
The deal is to start bd'ing every other night from day 8, and start doing OPK's from day 10. When you get a +ve OPK you must bd every day for 3 days, skip and a day and then bd again - then wait!
So we've done all that - I got +ve OPK on Saturday - we bd'd Saturday, twice on Sunday (morning and night) and Monday night - we skipped last night and are due to bd again tonight!
But I can't be arsed!!!
If I got the +ve OPK on Saturday is there any chance I still may be fertile? Or should I just give up for this month!
Don't want to reduce my chances of getting BFP!

I'm Currently Feeling:  | Id say its up to you 
personally i think sort of advice stems from the fact that a) opks show you the window of ov but not whether you caught the beginning, peak or end of the surge and b) just to be on the safe side
Im sure lots of girls on here will say do it loads and then some more, but personally- i cant be arsed either, LOL
Good luck babe, hope you get that BFP, xxx
ps, sorry for your loss, i had a mc in feb and im back hard at it as well..im banking on being more fertile too ) |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Thanks girls! Decided to force ourselves - LOL! I'm just so tired!
However, I think if I got a BFN in May, and I hadn't bd'd tonight I'd wonder what if - u know what I mean? So at least if I follow the rules, and its still BFN - it was not meant to be and no regrets!
Really want a BFP this month, gutted to be back at square one after all the excitement in February and the devastation of March!

I'm Currently Feeling: | When you do your OPK and get a positive - do you continue to test the day after or do you stop as soon as you get your positive??
Just wondered - i stopped after i got my positive last month so didn't really know when the fertile window ended - it just says within the next 48 hours - nice to keep it vague!!! |
