Last try before IUI...a question

If I don't get pregnant this month, I will be starting IUI with clomid next month. I had an HSG this month so I'm hoping that helps. So, I have a question about my Opk and when to dtd.

Im using FIrst response opks but I had some extra cbe advanced so I started with those. Last month I used only the cbe advanced and i got a peak reading very early which it jumped straight to so I didn't trust it, which is why I added the FR. Again this month I would just see what happened with CBE too. Again I got peak early (I think it was cd9) and it went from low to peak. We decided to give it the benefit of the doubt and bd'd cd 9 and 10 but took off on cd 11. I tested positive on FR Opk on cd 12 (yesterday) and I had ovulation pain that I usually have so we bd'd again. I tested again today on FR and I am positive again. We are planning to BD tonight. Do we need to Bd tomorrow night too? I know after tonight we will be exhausted from this but I'm afraid we started to early and are at risk of stopping short. Thoughts?

TIA!

The best advice I can give is, dtd until your cervix closes. Once it's closed, you ovulated.

I don't really like the first response OPK i like the Clear Blue easy ones better. I usually start at like day 10 or 11 testing but I don't ovulate until about 16 ,17. You really want to know when your about to ovulate more than when you have already ovulated.
I was told that it is better to bed every other day then every day. So you kinda of want to BD the day before and the day after you O.

I am not sure how to fix that LOL I guess mine never rose high enough for me not to reach.

The OPK's were making me nuts, so I started cervix checking and stopped the OPK's. Also, if your DH doers not have any issues it is OK to DTD every day. That worked for us this time. We did it for 6 days straight and it wound up sticking this time.
