When you got your BFP, what was your timing? I'll make it a poll question, because voting is fun.

I'm assuming EOD, but I know there are some rockstars on here who BD everyday. Mad props... don't know how you do it.

when we had our bfp with ds, we had BD'ed daily for 12 days. not because we're rockstars, but because it was the first time i'd use the clear blue easy fert monitor and got the high notification pretty early on in my cycle... i thought it'd only be a few days before the peak days showed up... NOPE. i found out that cycle that my already long cycle was even longer with my O day being a few days later than the previous months!

We only BD'ed on O day--I was on a retreat and came home on Valentine's Day/O day and that was it!

When I got pregnant with E, we bd eod untilI got my positive, and then we did 3 days in a row so, before O day, O day and the day after just to be sure we got it before the egg dissolved.
This time we are doing the same( eod from period until positive, and then 3 days straight) but the only difference is we will continue to bd eod until the next period shows because opks and me don't have an honest relationship, so I am not 100% sure of O day.

O-4

We were on vacation and that sure as heck ain't gonna happen this time.

I've had 2 BFPs (first was m/c):
O-4, O-3, O-1, and O
O-4, O-2, and O

With A it was every day 5 days before O and O day, plus two days after O. This time it was two days before O and O day I think.

I wish I was sure. First I thought I O'd CD17 based on CM, which would have made my timing o-3, o-2, o-1 and o+1.
But, based on my dating ultrasounds it looks like I O'd CD14, which would have made my timing o-2 and o.

O-3 and O. We weren't consciously timing it, though, more NTNP.

Each of the 3 times I had a BFP last year we did it every day for 10-12 days, skipping about 2 days here and there. I O'ed late those cycles and we have a motility issue so it was kind of necessary.

With DD, it was every day for about 4 days around O time. probably 3 days before and 1 day after.
With BFP#2 (but ended in m/c last week), it was every other day for about a week. I'm not quite sure when I O'ed because I wasn't pay attention that closely.

I answered for my successful BFP, it was O-3, O-2, O. for chemicals (which is not relevant to the BD timing anyway) I've also had:
O-1, O, O+1
O-2, O, O+1
O-3, O-1, O
O-2, O (was an IUI cycle)
and I'm hoping O-1, O, O+2 does the trick this time

Not really sure b/c I had the flu and wasn't temping (due to fever). First month using CB OPK and it went from zero to high fertility in one day (no intermediate flashing smiley face). Just DTD on the one day DH and I weren't barfing. Totally sexy I know.

0-4 and 0+1. It was a really crazy week and I had no hope that it would work.

My vote is other. I *thought* my timing was O-5, O-4, O-3, and O-1, and O+2
Based on dates measuring exactly for this whole pregnancy, turns out my timing was O-4 and O-1 - if we hadn't had that BD days after I thought I O'd, we probably would not have a baby in my belly right now.

We BD everyday during my fertile week. It was o-5, o-4, o-3, o-2, o-1 and o. I thought we also BD on o+1, but according to my chart we didn't, that or I forgot to put it in. All the times were in the PM.
We also BD o-8 and o-7 (we didn't on o-6 because we were on a trip with my family and couldn't) but I am guessing those didn't do anything so far out.

We got pregnant accidentally but I am 99% sure we did it on O-day since I had been tracking my cycles under the guise of NFP. Oops! We didn't have sex any other days that week.

Every other day up until O and then day after. It worked out that we had sex the day before and day after.

I voted other - for my first DS, I was out of town and not temping during pre-O week and we only DTD once, that was either O or O+1! We had already been trying for 18 mos and figured it was never going to happen any way

just checked my charts from FF and it was -4, -3, -1 and +1. i had super long cycles at that time, so we were doing EOD for over a month. i was exhausted!
