Sperm Meets Egg Plan (SMEP) TTC#1 group Aug/Sept/Oct 2013

Forums New posts
Ooh yah I never tell dh if I'm in my fertile period. I just so happen to want to bd a lot more :) however I told him the smep plan if af shows & he was down for it because of all the sex lol
 
We are never that active so if I figured it's probably better if I tell him the schedule ahead of time (whether or not he'll actually remember is another story!)

Last cycle was the first cycle we decided to ttc (started mid cycle) and I didn't follow any specific schedule - just tried to do it when I thought I was in my fertile window and then stopped after that (if I didn't initiate it we wouldn't have BD'ed as much as we did) and apparently we missed it.

So I'm really looking forward to SMEP this cycle! :)
 
Floridasian, we are not that active either and my husband can get performance anxiety. So the schedule helps and the enzyte. I could give him sugar pills and it would probably have the same effect. It's all in his head.
 
I had DH download the book (I think it's titled "the sperm meets egg plan" not 100% sure) from Amazon, just because it is free. He started reading and he started asking all these questions, one of them made me laugh, he asked what OPK stood for, I told him, he still did not know, I then said, uhhhh you remember those things you bought me last time? lol he said that he did not even know what he was getting, he just followed the link I send him and the instructions, haha. I am like, well damn, next time I will send you a link to something else I want and you will have no idea.
 
Wow mizzyd your chart is looking pretty great... Very nice temp rise :D
 
I have never followed a BD plan before, I just learned of the plan this cycle..so I was ready to stick to SMEP...but then I got in the mood too much and we BDed pretty much every day this week.
 
I have been reading that as long as your OH has a good (normal; whatever word you want to use, haha) sperm count, then BD'ing everyday is actually not a bad thing.
 
I really hope so, I would hate to miss out just because we had TOO much sex haha.

I posted a thread named "need extra eyes + advice please"

If those of you who use OPKs or have in the past or know how they work could look at that thread and help me out I would be very grateful!
 
Is there a way you can post the link on here? I have not used OPK's much, but I have seen a few on other threads.

Marqelle i was supposed to follow SMEP during my first ttc cycle but we ended up doing it everyday till O cuz i was too worried about missing out the O day :haha: I hope whatever you are doing works out for you!! :hugs:
 
Yes that's kind of how I felt. Every day I was like, well I am kind of in the mood and we might as well just so we cover all our bases.

Thank you though.

I guess I will be ovulating in the next couple days and I feel oddly calm about it all.

This cycle I feel really good about my chances and I kind of feel like this might be the one.

I think that is why I feel okay with waiting, because if this cycle really is the one, then everything is going to change and nothing will every be the way it is right now, so I want to enjoy it.
 
I really hope so marqelle! After what you've been through , you deserve a bfp!!! :)
Fx for you.... And me too! :)
 
Can I join?! I'm at CD7 and have cycles (33-36 days) so I'm thinking I'll also start SMEP on CD10. It will be nice to have a group of ladies to follow and talk about this. :)
 
Welcome TahoeDreams23! I'll add you the list. You'll love the company of ladies on this forum :D
 
Hello,

can you add me to the list? Im not sure when AF will come this month since its my first period after an MC, so count me in. I'll keep u ladies posted:)
 
Welcome Sabster! So sorry for your loss. GL for the coming cycle. Will add ya up too! x
 
After a week of spotting, AF is finally here and I'm in agony! A week late... does that mean I class today as CD1? And does it mean I ovulated a week later than I thought? So glad I've bought OPKs for this month! I'm so far behind most of you now, eek! Hope it's going well for you all so far! x
 
Hello everyone, could I join this group please? I haven't read through all the previous posts yet but I will in a mo.
I'm back to TTC for no1 after 2 miscarriages, the 2nd being just a month ago and af arrived 4 days ago! So planning to use the smep this cycle. I used it last pregnancy and was successful on the second attempt. Here's hoping!!! Fingers crossed for us all! Xxxx
