Have sex during your fertile window when TTC? I got a positive OPK this morning. I was thinking every other day, but I don't want to miss out.

Sorry if this is a stupid question. We got really lucky when TTC Allison and I didn't have to think about this at all.

That being said, my RE used to recommend every other day.

Serious question... don't you just have to hit the window a few times? This month we did pretty good. Yesterday, today (got a + today), and maaaybe tomorrow if I can convince him. Isn't twice enough knowing that I'll O tomorrow?

ETA. And another question. I've read several places that you should have sperm ready and waiting before the +, true or false?

We only BD on the day of my positive OPK. With L that was it and with E we did every other day before( like 2ish times?) It would probably be best to BD two times after the positive OPK at least, unless you are pretty sure you ovulated within the 48 hours.

Those swimming things live in there for a few days! I was also told that every other day gives more opportunity for higher count/better swimmers,too.

I got the positive on CD11, so I wasn't quite prepared for that. It was a few days earlier than I thought based on previous months symptoms. We DTD two days before the +, so hopefully that will help too.

Thanks for the responses - I appreciate it!
