Anyone tried Deanna/SMEP plan?

Postby MrsNov » Wed Dec 31, 2021 12:59 pm

Hi All

Just wondering if any of you have tried the Deanna (SMEP - Sperm Meets Egg :eek) Plan?

This will be our 4th month TTC and was going to give it a go. Its all detailed on the sticky at the top of the forum ("Try" every other day from CD8, till you get a positive on OPK, then that day and following 2 days, then rest for one day and then BD one final day).

Willlng to give anything a go, would truly love a BFP in January *)

Any thoughts???

God Sphyx thats encouraging :o)ll :o)ll

Just informed DH that he will be participating in the SMEP plan this month - GOD LOVE HIM - he was just like, no bother, count me in....... Wondering if he actually even listens to what I am saying half the time :o0

I'm trying it too, didn't ovulated last month (so I was wasting my time and energy :o0 ) but this month I'm a bit more hopeful. On CD 22, and DH is loving this plan way more than the last one :o0

Some of the info on that link is a bit iffy Shala, like the % chance of miscarriage is 10%, I thought it was closer to 20/25%?

The plan is very well explained though, in easy to understand language.

Does anyone know why it's recommended for after a m/c rather than a general recommendation?

I thought it was funny reminding is to 'release the sperm' at least once between OV and Day 8 of the next cycle, it's like men are just machines :o0

I think the 20 to 25% is related to before AF is due and 10% after your AF is due? I know the chances of m/c decrease a lot even at 6 weeks.

That's good to know! I thought the 25 % covered the whole 1st 12 weeks!
