To keep trying or begin 2WW?

Back in January the OB/GYN advised us to dtd every other day from CD6-CD18. Today is CD15 for me and I am pretty sure that I ovulated on CD13. I have been using the ClearBlue Advanced Digital Ovulation Tests, got a blinking smiley face on Sunday up until today. (I still haven't had a solid smiley face yet, but I have learned not to trust OPKs.) Anywho... Hubby and I DTD every other day starting on CD6 leading up to O, the day before O, and the day after O. Unfortunately we couldn't make it happen the day that I believe I actually ovulated. I feel like we should be okay not going at it for a while, but I am afraid because what if I haven't actually had O yet. I am also worried that DH won't be able to perform much more, as we have done the BD a lot in the past 10 days. Any advice is welcome

Hi lemur, the sperm hangs around for a few days after dtd, so if you do happen tomorrow or day after, the sperm should still be swimming around. The last couple of months I haven't had a peak on opk's either so not very trusting of them. hope one of them catches the egg!

We dtd last night and he was able to give me a little baby juice. Not like his usual load though. That's why I was thinking maybe we should stop. But I guess I'll try to spice things up tomorrow and then we can try again Saturday. Hopefully he will be able to go again Thanks so much!!

He'll need a rest for sure this weekend! Enjoy if you can and I hope you catch it this time around x
