Anyone else just BDing a lot without temping, o sticks, etc?

I temped when ttcing for DS. Then when it took a while, I started with ovulation predictors. I just don't want to drive myself crazy this time so we're on the BD 3-4x a week all month long plan. Anyone else?

I'm sure I'm just being naive! Ask me again in a couple of months! Chat Icon

I have PCOS and didn't temp or anything. I had an idea when I was o'ing. Conceived both times naturally. Took 2 years with dd, and a year with ds. Yes we were very lucky but it didn't just "happen" for us.

That's how I did it. Granted it took 5 months but the time I got pregnant before that it only took 2 months and the first month of not using anything was when I got my BFP. I think sometimes temping everyday and using OPKs can be stressful

I wish I could do it that way. I wanted to do that for 6-9 months before doing this... but nature had other plans. I am in a race against time... doctors told me "if I were you I would get pregnant as soon as possible."

No pressure.

We are doing it the good old fashioned way too! I don't find this way stressful, except for last month when I thought I was pregnant. I have no clue when I ovulateChat Icon

For the time being we're not driving ourselves nuts over it. I just had a mc and we liked the idea of having a summer baby. Now thats over so were on to the future.

We both said, spring would be good, but if we happen to luck out now, we'll be happy with a nov baby.

I figure if in a couple months i'm not yet, i may start with the opk's.

my cycles were so out of what, I tempted for a couple months and did OPKs. This month we did nothing and I plan to continue to do nothing... just on a normal schedule, maybe a little more mid-cycle, and I am doing acupuncture cause I thought that would be a relaxing approach.

I get really bad cramps when I ovulate so I pretty much know when that is.
