TTC for 10 months now. I can't help but want to track and use OPK's and preseed ect. But everyone's advice is to "don't stress and relax". I don't feel like I'm stressing just trying to get the best chance. Should I stop ?

Question

opk's and preseed ect. But everyone's advice is to "don't stress and relax". I don't feel like I'm stressing just trying to get the best chance. Should I stop ?" />

Answer

I decided to try not using opks. We just had sex when we felt like it and we ended up having more sex than previous months because it wasn't "we have to now" sex. I relied only on signs from my body like CM. when I suspected I was ovulating I did take a test just to confirm. But I didn't tell my husband. I just initiated it and we had fun, non-stressful sex. I got my BFP about 2 weeks later. I've been pregnant twice now (first was a mc) and both times were months that I didn't pee on a stick every day and we just had fun. Im not saying it's the only or best way, but I do believe there's something legit about the "just relax" advice. But I know it's so hard to feel like you're doing nothing or to be scared you'll miss your best chance. But if you have sex 3x/week, your chances are pretty good and we never had that much sex when I was continually tracking every little thing. Good luck and baby dust to all!

Answer
