Online O Calendar's
I have been using the O calendar's online since last month which was when we started TTC. I am sure they are pretty accurate but do you know how accurate they really are? Are they usually on target or off by a few days?
I know it can give one a general idea but do people usually use this as a method to conceive?
Just wondering...
According to my O calendar on www.yourdays.com I am "O" today but when I took the OPK last night at about 6pm I got a faint line.

Re: Online O Calendar's
I think its pretty accurate. I will be TTC next month..........and from what that website says I will be O tomorrow.
And they say right before O day, you get a lot of CM--and this entire weekend I did have a lot and today nothing.
And they say there usually isnt much CM on the day you O....so I think its pretty much down pat.
Ill know next month when I actually "test" it.l LOL

Re: Online O Calendar's
The calendars will estimate your O but the only way to precisely pinpoint it is with an OPK. I just want to also add that it's important to start BD before, during, and right after "O". The egg only lives 12-24 hours once ovulation takes place so you want to make sure that the spermies are ready and waiting for it to pop out. Good luck!

You are always so helpful so I want to thank you so much for that first 
Also, so far this month we only BD'ed on Monday (08/13) and again tonight and will continue every other night from now until CD20.
Do you think we may have missed it being we started a little late or we may still be in luck for this month?

You said you didn't get a positive yet right? You are fine. Keep testing once you get a pos-BD that night and 2 nights after

Basically the rule of thumb if you aren't sure when you O is to BD every other day. IMO BD every other day from CD 8-20 should catch O for most women.
