What have you been doing in the past months?
I tend to think that BD'g every other day would cover all bases, but since i'm still not PG, i don't know how valuable my advice is lol
we've tried bding every other day four days leading up to +opk and then for two days after.
we've tried bding on day of +opk and for three days after.
we've never tried bding every day leading up to +opk and then for a few days after. I think we're leaning towards choice #1 on my poll, but I wanted to see what other people thought.

BD every other day up to +OPK and then every day for 3 days straight. I read this in a book and I think it covers all your bases.

Re: BD Poll - Need Advice
I didn't have success with OPKs. In fact, the month I got pregnant (this time around) I never got a positive on the OPK.
We bd every other day from CD 10 to almost CD 20-22.
I got pregnant twice that way. The month I bd every day, I did not get pregnant.
Good luck!!

Re: BD Poll - Need Advice
when DH and i first started trying, we just BD every other day until AF came - i wasn't using anything for the first three cycles.
my fourth cycle i used pre-seed, OPKs, robitussin around O time and b-complex vitamin to lengthen my LP (i actually started the vitamin in the middle of cycle #3)
for the fourth cycle, we BD on two separate days before i got my positive OPK, then once i got a + we BD two days in a row, and i got PG
the truth is i have no idea what got me pregnant, but obviously the BDing schedule had something to do with it

Re: BD Poll - Need Advice
ok, i dont know, this is just how my brain works
if you "O" on an "even" day, 14 being an even number, and want to BD every other day, i would not start on an odd #
because that way, you will never BD ON the day you "O"
so, i'd BD every other day, starting with day 8 or 10
