It's highly unlikely that a BD session on the 23rd will get you pg when O on CD29. The little swimmers should all be gone by then.

If you O on the 29th, and your DH's sperm count is normal, your best bet is to BD every day from about the 26th through the 30th. If he's got a low sperm count, your best bet is probably to BD every other day in that timeframe (the 25th, 27th, and 29th).

While we only release an egg on one day, we are technically "fertile" for several days beforehand. Keep a close watch on your cervical fluid; as your O day approaches, it will be come more slippery and will take on the texture of raw egg whites. You should be able to stretch it between your hands. This is the most fertile kind of cervical fluid (this is also the kind in which sperm can live for up to 5 days; sperm can not live up to 5 days in less fertile types of cervical fluid).

Good luck to you!
