Re: Is it possible that I missed my surge???
TBH I do not know the answer to your question BUT I know that I have NEVER got +OPK yet but I am sure I have had to have one. I think I read that you can quickly miss it....I think I may have yest but didn't BD either bc DH was at work. I did the day before and hopefull tonight! If I were you I would BD when you get the chance!! to you!

Re: Is it possible that I missed my surge???
i followed the instructions on the OPK to the letter and after 2 months stopped doing them because i have never seen a positive test result, and i confirmed O via temping. i have friends who temp 2x a day around the few days they usually ovulate so they don't miss it, but that gets expensive.

Re: Is it possible that I missed my surge???
Yes, you totally could have missed it if you are testing every 24 hrs. I would test 2x/day when you begin seeing CM. You may only have an 8 hr LH surge.
I've tested in the am and saw a very very light surge, but then a dark peak about 6 hrs later. I use strips.
Also, you can have a few days of CM before O.

Re: Is it possible that I missed my surge???
I am starting to think the same thing. I am not sure if I really missed it, or if everything is out of wack because of the m/c at 6 weeks. I am just going to keep taking the smileys and hope for one.

OPK's are definitely not the best method of checking to see if you "O"d. I would suggest temping.

the directions also say if you do not get a positve you might not be ovulating that month - because you dont o every month

I agree with this...
Also, you just had a chemical pregnancy..that might be the reason why you didn't get your surge as of yet...you might not ovulate this cycle or you might ovulate late (like cycle day 20 and such)....that is why most doctors tell you to wait a cycle until you get your "real" AF since it is very hard to know CD1 from your chemical pregnancy bleed.......
GL to you!!

Thx! I'm going to start temping next month..this month is nuts..If I'm counting my first day of bleed as CD1 I'm on CD19 now If I count the first day after my bleed as CD1 (which some Dr's say to) I'm only on CD12...so I honestly am so lost so we shall see... I have tons of EWCM so no clue what is going on..I'm now testing twice a day so we shall see...
Thanks ladies
