Re: sort of a goofy question(to offpill)

Thanks again for your answer. Your answer is along the lines I was looking for. I am not exactly sure when my luteal phase is. I am thinking it is probably 14 days because I experience all my symptoms including + OPK exactly 14 days to my next period. But sometimes, with earlier cycles it does throw me off because I will start experiencing symptoms really early and then I think I have "missed the mark". So, if I have a 14 day luteal phase and I ovulate on day 14, then are you saying I should do odd number days? Like make sure I have sex on day 13? Or should I just chance it and keep at even number days and have sex on day 12 and 14? That is what we are doing this month. My cycle changes so much from month to month, that I figure if I just use the same timing system every month, then eventually I will get it. The past six months I have been trying to predict what is going to happen, by symptoms and timing it that way, and it is just not working. I hope I am making sense. Thanks again for your response!
