I have a bit of advice (On 6th pregnancy )

[jano]

Hi,
I have just found out that I am pregnant for the 6th time in 3 years following 4 miscarriages and a healthy baby girl. Each time I have miscarried, we have been desperate to get pregnant again and have discovered a method that seems to work every time we use it.

As soon as I finished my period, we begin having sex every other night (strictly) and every time we have done this it seems to have worked.

I have tried other ways like ovulation testing kits and working out dates etc and havn`t been succesful. I got fed up with it and tried the alternate night trick and it worked first time. If we go for it and then one of us is ill or has to go away and we don`t stick to it, it hasnt worked. I beleive that the sooner the sperm is in position the better so that it is ready and wating for the egg. My mate ovulated on the 5th day once and i did on the 9th.

I know it sounds a bit obviouse and simple, and please dont think that I am patronising, I just want to help if I can.

Jane xx

Thats the way I imagine it pretty much, I think of the first lot as the first line of the troops to recky the joint and find out where to go, then the second lot come in and here them calling over here lads! and take over duty - i imagine them as little soldiers on a mission!!

Thats a great way of seeing it hun!
When we're due to start BD, I tell my OH not to send any of his boys on a 'suicide mission' for a few days!

Thanks for the info. I start Clomid this month and am gonna do the whole Magic Medicine, lying for half an hour afterwards etc etc. I have already warned OH what he is in for !!

I like the soldiers on manoevres idea I always think of the beginning to the first "Look who's talking" film where the spermies are all dashing up to the egg in a big race and chatting to one another as they try to get there first xx

That's a really great tip - thanks!

Actually makes really good sense if you think about it!

Now all I've got to do is persuade my hubby that sex every five minutes is not the best way to conceive, which is what he seems to think at the moment!

Hi Jano

I think that is really great advice, thank you for sharing your experiences. It's good to hear of your success story and that you can pinpoint what you think has helped you catch each time is really helpful. Personally, I find the the OPKs very difficult to use as I can never seem to time them right. The first month I got a bfp when ttc and I used an opk but never seemed to get a pos result from them, we just bd'ed a lot, which I guess just done the trick! I think I will adopt your approach this month, and I'm gonna not bother with the OPKs coz I just get disappointed when I don't get a positive result from the OPk, which then sends me paranoid thinking that I must be infertile ! I think the whole thing can drive you craz y and by the way, congratulations and I hope you have happy and healthy pregnancy x

 

[mum&2girls]

Jano, good advice and it's what we've been doing since June. So far, no success. Hopefully we got it this month. I have managed to use OPKs and do it this way:
Pee in a cup and let the stick sit for 10-15 seconds, take out, put cap back on (I've got the ones with the cap on them) and lie flat on either a table or loo carpet and wait at least 3 minutes. Compare with the diagramme on the box for results. I find peeing on OPKs for 15 seconds doesn't work.

Congratulations to all the ladies who have got their BFPs
