Who knows. I had sex every other day during O week both times, and I have tons of EWCM, so there's no way to know which particular instance of intercourse actually ended in conception.
It was either Christmas Eve or the day after Christmas--my chart said one thing, dating u/s said the other.
Christmas Eve was drunk sex in my aunt's guest room. It took forever. The 26th was on an air mattress in BIL/SIL's basement after watching The Star Wars Holiday Special.

I can pinpoint DS's conception to one day because it was the only day DH was home for 2 weeks prior and 1 week after.
I can pinpoint DD's to 2 possibilities. We got tipsy, realized we were out of condoms (I had gone off BC in anticipation of TTC a few months later), and thought "what are the odds?" Two days later, we figured we might as well go for it. DH deployed a couple days later.
We were not TTC and were planning to wait at least a few more months. It was awesome sex and that's why we have a baby now. I hope DH enjoyed it because he has only gotten mediocre sex since.
I know when I ovulated, and we had sex twice that weekend. We joke about it, because we were visiting friends and had to put our dog in their bathroom (en suite to guest room), because we won't do it in front of her. Luckily, she didn't freak out in there.
Love of my life baby boy born 11/11. One and done not by choice; 3 years of TTC yielded 4 MMC and 2 CPs, through 4 IUIs and 2 IVFs. Focusing on making the world a better place instead...and running.
No clue for 1,2 or 4. I never tracked that closely or sex was just too frequent to pinpoint. Well I did track a couple months & try to time it "right" ttc for DD1 & 4. But I never got pregnant those months. Apparently having sex on days I got positives on the fertility monitors was not a route to success for us. DD3 I think I know because I had EWCM 2 weeks after I assumed I was fertile the right after sex. My heart dropped a bit because we were not ttc. It was CD like 32. Turned out I was right, I ovulated 2 weeks late & I got a bfp! DD2 we had sex daily that month...it was month #12 & we were desperate.

I charted, but then had sex several times during the window--
With my daughter it was either after dinner with friends, where I practically shoved them out the door, because I knew I was probably ovulating or the night of our one year of marriage mark (not an anniversary, because we got married on leap day).
With my son, I hope it was when we had sex in my husband's bedroom, from when he was a teenager, but it may have been before then.
Our first was about the only time we had sex that month. I have no clue with the other two. We were pretty much just having fun and not trying to have a baby.
I do. We weren't actively trying and DH would either use a condom or pull out (obviously not the most effective way but we were fine with whatever happened). Well, DH did not pull out in time and that was all it took. It was my birthday sex and it was good.

No idea. I always assume people who know so exactly just don't have a lot of sex :-)
With DD, I'm fairly certain we had sex at least once a day for two months. So definitely no idea!
With this pregnancy, we were actually half-heartedly trying to avoid because we (well, I) wanted to wait a couple of months before getting pregnant. So I tried to avoid having sex around the day I ovulated, but clearly I wasn't very good at it :-) Again, it could have been any of multiple days.
Yup, we only did it once that month during my fertile period (I was using the cbefm). I had muscle spasms bad but I got the smiley face so I jumped DH at like 5am haha. We were both hungover/still drunk.

yup. laying on the table at my RE's office... legs in stirrups - turkey baster shoved up there. Both times. The first time DH was there... the 2nd time he wasn't even there, lol.

Yes with DS. He was created in a moment of stupidity, not stopping to grab the condom. No with DD. She was intentional so we did it every day for a couple of weeks.
