We had an unexpected BFP... We DTD on just my 5th and 6th day.. and on my 15th day I started having the Early Symptoms.. I was damn sick for a couple of days then.. DH was not ready to believe that DTD on safe days could catch up..
And I got a BFP just in a week from then... So I dont beleive in safe time now.. Keep njoying.. and you would surely get BFP..
We were doing smep, and having sex every other day... I O'd soooo late this cycle, that I had given up on OPK's, but according to my BBT, I either O'd on the 13th or 14th... Some time in there! Soooooo, we did NOT have sex on the 13th! We did have sex on the 12th and 14th! Got a BFN at 9 and 10DPO and a BFP at 12DPO!
This thread is meant to chart all those using the SMEP method in an effort to show that it really works! I'll be posting monthly success rates (with %) so we can track it all! If you'd like to be added, please leave a comment with the date that you will be testing.
For clarification purposes, the SMEP is as follows:
Buy 10+ OPK
Starting on CD10 (if you have a 28 day cycle), do one OPK test daily (testing for the LH surge) & BD every *other* day (elevate hips for 10-30 minutes)
When you get a +OPK, BD that day and the next 2 days in a row (so total of 3 days in a row )
Skip one night and BD once more the next day
Take a home pregnancy test 14DPO (most of you will start taking your HPTs at 7-10DPO!) and hopefully we'll all get !
Yes I did, and it only took me 2 months to conceive. But like I said, I thought I wasn't going to O, so I stopped doing OPKs because I was all upset, so instead of getting the pos. opk and going to everyday, I continued with the every other, not knowing at the time when I was ovulating.
Opk's are definitely what did it for me this month too because I wouldn't have even bd on cd16 becaue I would have assumed I already o'd (my cm changed from ew to creamy on cd15). BUT, I got a positive opk on cd16 so I threw an extra bd in on cd16. We also bd some other times before cd12, but I left those out because I doubt that mattered.
my OH was away on business, and had an SA test the week before my O. My cycles are normally 28-32 days. I got a positive opk/peak on CBFM on CD16 and luckily this was the day my OH got back from his trip. We BD'd CD16, 17 and 19 (oh and he had "abstained" for 4 days before CD16 since his SA to see if it would make the stronger)
