How often did you BD around your fertile days when you conceived?

Yes, I have bought an OPK and Ive got the maybebaby. I think because it happened straight away last time I really want it to again and if it doesn't I'm going to be on a real downer. I know it is silly because it's normal to take a while, but I'm just a wee bit impatient

Spice - I know how you feel. TTC dd1 was easy, we thought about ttc and it happened that month...much to DH's disappointment (he wanted more bding time). I then had a miscarriage when Sara was 6 months old. I did not know I was pregnant until the miscarriage happened. At this point DH and I thought that we were really fertile. We then decided to ttc number 2... it took 3 months. I temped, I observed, we baby danced more than usual, and of course I kept getting BFNs!!! We put in heaps more effort than before. Finally got a BFP (although 3 months is very good for most couples) but we lost that baby at 10wks. By this time I was getting concerned. I had the dandc, 2 wks later I saw some fertile cm and we decided to dtd, and miss Loren was conceived.

Sorry for the rant above, but the ttc journey can be frustrating, I am a great believer that it happens when it is meant to. I wish you all the best with your journey...Remember it is not the destination it is the journey that counts, so enjoy whenever possible

We were TTC for 5 months. First month every second day. Second month every day. Third month we temped and every 2 days around O. Forth month OPK + temping and every second day. Fifth month forgot to temp and saw EWCM so did OPK, suspect I had already O'd and only dtd once. Got a boy.
