My Friend is currently TTC She had the deed on the 12th, and had her 2 highest peaks on the 13th & 14th. Is it will she get pregnant this month? I know when I tried for my boy (currently 15w3d) I did the deed on the 17th and had my highest peak the night of the 18th and received my positive when I was 10 dpo.
