do you know when you're ovulating and an OPK question

I was actually able to tell when I was ovulating this cycle. Not sure if it has anything to do with it being my first month getting AF after my D&C but I felt I was going to get my Chat Icon this morning and I did. I also having cramping which I'm pretty sure is from ovulation.

For my OPK question - we BD yesterday and the day before. I got my Chat Icon today but DH said he is BD out and needs a rest. Our plan is to take today off and BD tomorrow. Do you think that hurts our chances of conceiving?

Re: do you know when you're ovulating and an OPK question

You still have a good chance if you BD tomorrow since OPK predicts that within the next 12-36hours you will O. If you O later you have a good shot...also, you BD yesterday which helps too. GLChat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Re: do you know when you're ovulating and an OPK question

I would try to BD today but that is just my opinion. If not then can you squeeze it in tomorrow morning? If you really need a break then just do it tomorrow, but I am always so scared of missing an important day and you just never know when that egg is gonna drop, lol!

I dont have much to go off of though but when we got pregnant last time we BD Mon, Wed, Thurs (smiley day), Fri and Sunday morning. So we BD smiley day and the day after, then skipped a day.

Also yes I get O cramps too! Not every month but almost every month I seem to have them. Mine are little pains on and off for 3 days.

ETA - just noticed this post was from yesterday. Did you BD last night or no? If not then def tonight!

the month i got pregnant, we BD'd CD 13, got my smiley on CD 15, we did not BD that day but BD'd CD 16 in the morning. I'm 99% sure based on my due date that it was CD 16 when i got pregnant.

so you definitely still have a chance. don't force it (not that you will) b/c the month we conceived it was actually like others said and I didn't stress about it as much and we only BD 2x during the fertile window.

Thanks, this gives me hope. I'm not feeling too positive about this month since I didn't have a positive OPK this morning but maybe it's for the better.

Re: do you know when you're ovulating and an OPK question

I don't think it hurts the chance, but you really should bd today. If not today then tomorrow morning, and every other day for about 4-5 days. My dh had a vasectomy reversal so our urologist told him to Chat Icon keep me fullChat Icon It's so stressful, but it really did work for us once we "put our minds to it"
