things I'll do differently...

I plan to follow Deanna's plan to a T this month. Last month I was too tired/lazy & didn't BD everyday for 3 days when I got + OPK, I just stuck to every other day. We were tired from BD every other day since CD10 so I'll prob narrow the window by a few days.

That's all I can think of for now. But will prob add more later.

What about you ladies? I know a lot of you to plan to use OPKs this month...first response has $2 off coupons on their website & their HPTs had a $1 off coupon the package, maybe they have them on their OPKs ($3 off total ).

Re: things I'll do differently...

I am following Deanna's plan exactly!!! I'm excited to use OPK's this month. I have 0 idea when I ovulate. so it will be exciting.

other than that I don't think there is anything different...I hope this works! Time to get serious!

Re: things I'll do differently...

Well this is the first month I'll be using OPKs. I also bought a big thing of grapefruit juice and will be drinking that everyday since I read it has something to do with cm, not sure about that but I fig it can't hurt.

I asked this on the other thread...should I bd every night (or as much as I can) or should I do every other night. I've heard a bunch of girls saying they do it every other night, not sure if there is a specific reason for this or not

Re: things I'll do differently...

I just started my 2ww today.

So if this month I do not get my BFP ...then i might switch over to Grapfruit jiuce instead of mucinex. This cycle mucinex did not help at all so i will try grapefruit juice. I will stick with Deanna's plan...(i followed it eact this month).

What's this about Grapefruit juice???? I did not hear this??

And Rachel!!!!

Thanks Jen!!!

They say grapfruit juice...kind works the same way as mucinex. It helps to improve the quality and quantity of CM.

Re: things I'll do differently...

I hate grapefruit juice but I'll give it a try! lol

Re: things I'll do differently...

Im doing Deanna's plan this cycle too. I guess I'll try the grapefruit juice too; guess it cant hurt

I plan to follow Deann'a plan which says every othr night until +opk then for 3 days straight, skip a day then do it again.

Last month I BD every other night & it didn't work...so. I remember the last time, I BD 3 days straight & that worked, so I'm going to do that again.

Also, I read that the sperm needs to rebuild so its not wise to BD every night.

Re: things I'll do differently...

FWIW, I've gotten PG 4 times (out of 5 times trying) and each time we BD every day from ~13 to when I O (usually Day 16 or so). I use the OPKs and chart temps and CM on fertilityfriend.com. We also use preseed and I always stay in bed with legs elevated for 30 min after. Not sure what did it but it seems to work for us...

Re: things I'll do differently...

I'm not sure what I'm going to do differently. Last time, we only BD'd on the one day that I got a + on the OPK and we got our BFP, so I'm not sure if I'll change anything. I'll probably do the same, unless I don't get a + (which sometimes you can miss it obviously) then we'll just have to make sure to BD either every day or every other during that O week (which would be CD12-16)
