ovulation and BD

[maldives]

Hi all,
I am ttc my 1st , its been 3 months since we've started trying and only the past month ive started to calculate my OD. my question is i do feel the pain during Ovulation , what does this pain exactly mean the egg has popped already? is it best to BD when i feel the pain ? or should i wait a day later as ovulation kits say when it shows a rise in the hormone i should bd 24 to 36 hours later? i am really confused. my partner and i are both 25 we bd every day is it ok or its better to bd every other day please i need help.

welcome to the forum chick!

i think bd'ing everyday is ok, i cant see it doing any harm

bd'ing on the run up to ovulation is just as effective as on the day of ovulation as the sperm can live for a few days

the ovulation kit will ell you the rise is LH so this means you are away to ovulate so when you detect this you know you should bd to increase your chances of conceiving that month

hope that made sense, sorry for rambling lol
