When trying for my daughter last year. I used cheap over the counter ovulation strips and I used inito ovulation tracker. They have fb group as well and was able to narrow things down more and succeed. Second baby was 7 years after my first and not as easy to get pregnant for me:

@Cory thanks hun congratulations by the way

Strips should be accurate but I felt the app was spot on. I wouldn’t try just one night in your ovulation period though. I would try like 3-5 days in a row around and in your ovulation period

Female sperm can live for 5 days and make sperm for 3. So usually you want to do it a few days before ovulation. Then highest chance on highest ovulation day. The days before help you not miss the window though.

Sperm can survive inside a woman's reproductive tract for up to 5 days (but usually 3). The egg is only viable for 12-24 hours after ovulation. Your positive ovulation test occurs 12-24 hours before ovulation. The app is just guessing. It's best to try multiple times in your fertile window (5 days before ovulation and 1-2 days after ovulation) just to give yourself the best chance

@Sarah thanks luv sending you all the best wishes on your journey.
