well people say different things, but i use the clearblue fertility monitor, our doctor told us to do it everyday from day 7 to at least day 21 this is if you ovulate on day 14, i ovulated day 21 abd did the deed everyday from day 8 to day 25 lol.

alot of people say every other day but the month i got caught with rhys we were doing it everyday so thats what i'll stick to, i think it depends on oh sperm as well. my understanding is we're only fertile for 16hrs or something like that

are you using opks?

Thanks, wow that is a lot of bdding!!!

Not sure my other half would believe me if i told him that!

Yeah iv heard every other day but i agree with you, if you only have 16 or so hours to catch the egg i wouldn't want to miss out.

Did you take clomid with your first? If so how many cycles did it take and if you don't mind me asking why were you prescribed it? I have been on the depo injection for 8 yrs (it stopped my af) i had my last shot in July 08 and my af has still not returned. So the gynae has prescribed clomid to kick start my ovaries. He said either i will get pregnant, my af will arrive or nothing will happen.

Thanks for your advice. xxx
