Butt up after sex and morning sex.
It worked twice, so I wouldn't change it.
But seriously? I believe what worked was simply knowing it would happen this cycle. Hand on my stomach all through out this cycle sending good thoughts and reiki.
I know it sounds nuts, but I really did just believe.
After 1 year of TTC and a MC in the middle- it had to happen, I didn't leave other option!

With my DS we conceived first month! We started TTC#2 last month and I just got my bfp yesterday (also first month!).

I used OPK's but we were only able to DTD on the day I got a + OPK then not again afterwards, so I thought we would miss it. I actually thought AF had started this weekend so figured I was out. It 'stopped' after just 2 days of light spotting so must have been implantation bleeding!

The 'only' thing I did different than when we're not TTC is stay laying down after BD for 15 - 30 min. I think that definitely helps!

I think I'm going to try this next month I've been feeling quite negative about TTC and mostly think that it won't happen for me

I like the idea of being super positive better than the "not trying" concept that everyone talks about so I think I'll try this first.

The month I got pregnant was our first month of infertility testing. I had blood tests and was confirmed to have PCOS at the beginning of the month. I had an HSG dye test (which I've read/heard SO many places increases fertility for the first 3 months after it) to check if my tubes were open (and they were), I was started on Metformin, and DH started up some vitamins (Fertility Blend for Men and Maca root, both of which he took the month before and month we got pregnant last time) since his count was a bit low and his morphology was lower than it should be. So between all of that something worked! lol!

what do I think gave us our BFP?

hmm if I were to guess.. ... probably the FET (frozen embryo transfer)

We had tried for months and not even a hint of a positive line.
We decided to stop trying and focus on paying off the car, that was my month!
