how long does ov last????

[sarah1]

Hi girls
So I got my smiley face yesterday which I was really happy about......how long should we be doing lots of for? OH is having some ... lets call them 'issues', not sure if it is nervous thing cos of the pressure so trying not to pester him all the time!! got really down and upset yesterday night when we didnt manage to BD.. waiting such a long time every month. But we have done it yesterday morning and this morning, eventually!
Sorry for the moan...................just feeling a bit rubbish at the mo and don't want to wait another 6 weeks to ov again. x x x x

Not too sure on the answer to this but didn't want to read and run. I figure if you did it yesterday morning and this morning you are on the right track. Good luck for this month

Well its the little men that need to last longer and as long as you have done it on or around ovulation they can still make it happen, fingers crossed for u xx

I'm in exactly the same boat, got my positive on Friday and Sat, so did it both days and wanted to do it yesterday as well but I think other feels so under pressure (poor souls) where as I just wanted to rip his trousers off I got my own way eventually after alot of persuasion But you wonder if you just carry on trying for the next couple of days to know that you have given it your best shot

It's sooo tricky this ttc business..........

Hey Ladies

You are all lucky, my fella is always up for it and at the moment I am like rrrr can't we just do it around ovulation (i know that's selfish!) but I feel all I want is a baby and then he can have it all the time lol I am pretty sure when you have got your Postive on your ovulation, then that is the most fertile time to BD and maybe a time before and one after, that's how I do it so I don't miss an egg lol

Good Luck ladies xx

On average, once you have ovulated, your egg lasts from 12-48 hours.. All depending on the strength of the egg and its surroundings etc.. You will find on different websites some say 12, some 24 and some 48.. But you are best bd'ing every other day when you are approaching ovulation to make sure you catch the egg Good luck
