Ok, I'm gearing up for ovulation, which should take place in about 7-10 days. I think I definitely have to change my ways because I cannot have another month like the last one. I literally put my life on hold from the day of ovulation until AF, and even before ovulation, I turned BD into a chore for the both of us.
This is what I'm planning to do. I think writing out my plan will help me stick to it:

*Keep BDing fun. Have lots of it, but not get too technical about the whole thing.
* Use an OPK, just to ease my mind (We'd be BDing a lot anyway, so I probably wouldn't miss it anyway).
* Refrain from propping up my hips obsessively with a pillow after BDing.
* Continue BDing a lot until 1-2 days past O, and then just not force it anymore after that.
* Leave on my holiday and try as much as possible NOT to think about TTC or the TWW. I want to just forget about it until testing time.
* I WILL NOT TEST BEFORE 10-11 DPO.
* I will try not to hyperanalyze every twinge in my body.

Sound good? Feedback please!! Let me know if you think I've missed anything.
I can't help but feel that, if I'm not obsessing about it, I'm actually losing some chance at conceiving...but maybe that's all in my head.
 
It is really difficult not to obsess and make BD a military operation. Keep smiling and trying, don't think you've missed anything, the most important thing out of anything is to keep on BD'ing, tempimg, charting pillows will help but the BD'ing is the most important. Good Luck!!
 
that sounds like a good plan, you will hopefully not think about it too much in the 2ww and enjoy each other more

good luck for this cycle! :hugs:
 
good luck this month :) and have a fantastic vacation in Israel! Just relax and enjoy your time. :dust:
 
yes it's a good plan...and just relax ...
