I bought a digital OPK that has enough for 20 days of testing, so fingers crossed. I also bought POAS tests but I won't use those until I'm "late" - thanks for all the advice, ladies :) Smurfette on "How often to DTD when TTC" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-to-dtd-when-ttc#post-574480 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 08:19:26 +0000 Smurfette 574480@https://boards.hellobee.com/ The month we got our BFP, due to DH's travel we BD one morning, skipped the next day, and BD the next morning.

We just DTD every day for a few days leading up to OV and then a few days after.

But it can get exhausting. We did two days of sex, one day off, then two more days of sex. We gt pregnant on the first try twice whole using this schedule.

The only con, I see is that it can be exhausting to go every day, so if you feel not into it one day - take the night off. It will be fine. sarac on "How often to DTD when TTC" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-to-dtd-when-ttc#post-574041 Mon, 18 Feb 2013 23:37:30 +0000 sarac 574041@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I got pregnant on my fourth clomid cycle, and we had eased up on that one. No every day sex, no laying there with my stupid hips up. Just every/every other day when we felt like it, and then go about our business.

Your DH is a lucky guy. We do every other day bc my DH has a lower count.

Figure we can't miss it that way lol !

One of those times worked! I'm guessing it was O-2 :) Rubies on "How often to DTD when TTC" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-to-dtd-when-ttc#post-573291 Mon, 18 Feb 2013 20:03:51 +0000 Rubies 573291@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @Bao: Wow - that's a lot of days in a row! :) Bao on "How often to DTD when TTC" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-to-dtd-when-ttc#post-573275 Mon, 18 Feb 2013 19:56:17 +0000 Bao 573275@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We did it every day and it worked, which was 8 days in a row. lol ;) babycanuck on "How often to DTD when TTC" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-to-dtd-when-ttc#post-573270 Mon, 18 Feb 2013 19:54:40 +0000 babycanuck 573270@https://boards.hellobee.com/ When trying to conceive is there a positive or negative to DTD daily vs every 2-3 days?
