Offpill:

Have you tried charting your cervical mucus (fluid, discharge are other names). Some people only have a single day or even just a couple hours of fertile quality mucus which would nourish the little spermies and guide them up the cervix... Anyhow, ideally you need the stuff for fertilisation so having sex on odd or even days won't guarentee that you will get the day with the right cervical environment for successful conception. I read above that you aren't interested in BBT (which would only tell you after you have ovulated anyhow) but have you tried charting your mucus? It doesn't take much work just observe what's on the tissue after you pee. Good luck!!! Baby dust!!!
