While Ive been ttc since xmas, this is the first month of seriously trying, so far weve just been hoping, so does anyone have any helpful tips for us? What can we do to help other than regular BD'ing during the ovulation window?
 
try using preseed, i made a topic on it yesterday.. But i used it and i got a bfp (well 8 bpfs :shhh: ) so its worth a shot..
 
With my first I tried cough medicine...does anyone remember the illusive cherry stuff from asda?

It thins your mucas :puke:

Good luck... oh and try to bd-the way im going im expecting an immaculate conception :rotfl:
 
cough medicine sounds rather interesting, any one in particular to use/avoid?
Ive got venos chesty coughs here but that wouldnt do as i HATE the taste of it, we wouldnt be bd'ing, id be in the bathroom :puke:

Also when should I start taking it?
 
Dont stress about it, thats my only tip!!

I got my BFP this month (2nd month TTC), 1st month for some reason it was all I could think about and I had every symptom possible.

This month I was really laid back we only BD twice as had no idea when I would Ovulate until the day before!

Saying that for next month I had a supply of preseed, Evening Primrose Oil, my new Basal thermometer, various charts etc :D
 
on my first i used the cough medicine and it worked first time (it has to have the ingredient guistifen (sp!))

i also charted my temp so knew when i had ovulated, had a long cycle like yourself get to know your cycle for a bit is it regular??

if you have a 38 day cycle then you will ovulate 14 days before your period so make sure you bd around day 24 so from day 19 especially.

my cycle was 35-36 days and i concieved on day 21 exactly that 14 days before. good luck x
 
Don't make too many changes, just keep happy and positive and relax, it worked for us anyway, I think if you try to do everything right it can cause body upset and stress, which wo't help :hug: Zinc and Selenium are great for Mr's sperm too, I'd suggest that as an option :) OV can change each month too, so spreading BD'ing out rather than focussing on a couple of specific days :)

Very, very best wishes :hug: :cheer: :hug:

Would BD'ing every other day be ok then? Think I'll try that and :pray:
yes thats what we did BD every other day from CD10 to CD20
Good luck
 
If you bd'ed every other between CD10 and 20 when should I? My cycles since xmas have been an average of 38 days
