YIKES!!!!!!! What do I do now?
Okay, here's the deal. Normally I get a +OPK on CD 17 and I don't typically see EWCM.
This month, started testing on CD 13, all negatives. CD 17 comes and goes, still negative. CD 19 see LOTS of EWCM (we BD'd), OPK still negative. CD 21 we BD, still negative. CD 22 we BD, still negative.
NOW... CD 23.... +OPK!!!!! w t f ?
We can't BD more than 2 days in a row. The whole BD, then skip a day, then BD two more in a row was like a record for us.
So now what should I do?
I know I should BD today, tomorrow, and the next day... but it physically will NOT happen.
What's your best advice for me? I feel like we "wasted" our BDing just because I saw EWCM. I was convinced that I wouldn't get a +OPK this month since it's almost a week late.
Please help!

Re: YIKES!!!!!!! What do I do now?
what if you BD today, then see if you can tomorrow. if you can't tomorrow, then do the day after. 3 days in a row is a lot

The only thing is that I feel like tonight it just won't be able to work. We already did last night and the night before...and last night was a struggle to the finish line if you get my drift.

Every other day should be fine! Sperm can live inside of you for a few days.

Re: YIKES!!!!!!! What do I do now?
try 1.5 days..... instead of tonight... how about tomorrow morning? Studies suggest it takes a day and a half for a guy to 'recharge' so your DH should be fine then.

Re: YIKES!!!!!!! What do I do now?
I think it will be just fine if you didn't BD last night & do it tonight. The +OPK means you are "about" to O & not that it is too late...

Re: YIKES!!!!!!! What do I do now?
Definately tonight. Do not worry. If you see EWCM hopefully the spermies are trapped in it TMI I know but hey, that's how it goes.
They can totally hold out for 4-5 days so anything is possible. I believe that is how it happened for us last month.
