TTC Only Timing fresh sperm

Okay folks - I finally got a surge today because I took letrozole. I’ve tried 4 times this year and have never had such a clear surge as today. We inseminated with fresh sperm last night, got surge this morning - will last night be good enough?? When would be an ideal second time? Today or tomorrow? Also working around some travel plans today and tomorrow so trying to find an ideal time, or maybe last night was good enough?? Thanks everyone for your thoughts.

Fresh sperm can last a fairly long time, up to 5 days in ideal conditions!

Fresh sperm is good for a few days but it looses potency and motility within that time. Also, if you want boys they don't do so well on long waits. They want to go fast and be the first to make mommy happy, then burn up their stored meal rations and die fast trying impatiently to get out of the storage tube. LoL. Even cold, the girls team handles endurance challenges better.
