Ok so ill be totally honest....the less cm there is the harder it is for those little spermy suckers to reach there destination...but if there was a lot of them it might be ok...I was also try bd-ing again just to make sure lol...
Now in my experience I have learnt that ovulation pain is your body's way of telling you that your gearing up to ovulate...meaning as the pain starts your ABOUt to ovulate...when the pain stops it means ovulation is in process...two days after o pains is when I say it's 1dpo...
The o pain is your follicle getting ready to release the egg hence the pain as its bursting through the ovary...the humongous pressure pain is this exact moment when its literally shedding through from the ovary...when the pains subsiding it means it's about to make it journey down the Fallopian tubes...you then have upto 48 or less to get the final bdIng in to catch that eggy....just to make sure I'd do it again lol....
And the day after just for good measure...at least there isn't the pressure of "have we done it enough"
I have also read to give hubby 4/5 day break after ovulation...good for healthy sperm reproduction for next cycle if current cycle is a no goer....lol
Hope this helps momma

You're totally in your fertile period right now. If you check your cervix daily & then monthly you'll get to know when your fertile period is also over.
It's still super hard to know when you've O'd unless you're temping or using OPK. Sorry. But good luck! Get BDing
Hey Nat! I got a slew of tests done to see if my body was fighting his sperm, my body - everything. I got the whole gamut of tests done back in November. All came back clean!!!
If we weren't doing IUI, I would get the PH tested in my vagina to see if it's too acidic & killing the sperm. But for now, it's not a concern.
Yay Meg you're back!!! Thanks for the congrats. Super awesome. We are leaving in half an hour to do a house inspection just to make sure it's all tip top shape. No surprising issues. Then home sweet home. Going for a run later. Got into running this week to get into shape. You know what I said to myself? "If I dont have a baby belly, I don't want any kinda belly" LOL. I've been super lazy about shedding the last remaining weight & I'm done. I want to feel amazing & I haven't been.
Good luck with your OPK - I hope it turns positive soon!!! FX

Hey barbs....just thought I'd run it by you love as I been reading(not joined-it's too much ) this thread and they are talking about immune testing...I looked it up and it's called nk cells that some of us have...and prednisone is prescribed to combat this....
Nk cells...is when our body's fight all foreign objects including embryo...this is something I'm defiantly going to get myself checked out as over that past 9yrs I've had many miscarriages....and I wonder if this something I might be faced with here...
I'm starting vitamin b6 this cycle (hopefully tmr) 50 mgs daily and then I double the dose in the tww...it will boost my progesterone and support implantation...fecking ideal I say ....bring it on
Had a shite hole of a day today...my home Internet has gone ker plunk-got it fixed now had two engineers out to sort it...
My lo woke up with the mother of all colds so guess what I got coming my way.....grrrrrrreat! Lol
So I'm really hoping this doesn't affect our chances again this month....it seems to be one thing after the other every month something makes it all go tits up...
Two cycles ago it was Oh falling asleep at crucial times...the bar steward lol...last cycle it was hospitilization(my fault there lol) now this month the flaming cold virus...even if i dont show any symptoms I can still carry and harbour the virus...body will go into fight mode and possibly kill my chances this month grrrrrr lol....not good eh lol
I've learnt sooo much in the last 24hrs it's unreal...basically I know ALOT about different sorts of meds and how they can help and what to take for what...
I've even seen how ALOT of women doing ivf have there troubles and at some points I felt so guilty seeing how much easier ttc my life is compared to theirs...not that it's easy enough for us...they have to follow STRICT rules and their life's are literally turned upside Down and inside out ...shame really.
I'm having a breake from all the research tonight don't want to bog myself down and over load my remains daft brain cells lol
Hope your run went as well as It could I really ort to start this again you know...gotta lotta junk in this trunk I need to shift lol
