Trying to Get Pregnant

Sex Timing

Would love thoughts on when to have sex during TI. I am doing clomid + trigger this round and have another ultrasound & bloodwork appointment this week and will hopefully be triggering in the next few days.

Which days are best to have sex - before trigger, day of trigger, and after trigger?

Re: Sex Timing

  • Hi everyone - would love to bump this. RE told me I am ready to trigger today (Monday), meaning I should ovulate sometime tomorrow (Tuesday). We had sex yesterday (Sunday). Given all of this timing, when are the best times for us to have sex?

  • @fingerscrossed1 You will get much more feedback if you post this in the WTO weekly thread (Waiting to Ovulate) or the monthly Questions thread. We discourage one-off posts because it clutters up the board. Your doctor will likely advise you to have sex starting at trigger.

    OP, like @keikilove said, you'll find a lot of really great support and resources here if you intro in the weekly Newbie thread so the ladies can get to know your TTC history a little better, then either the WTO, Questions, or IF thread would be a great place to ask your questions.
