Just a vent!
I am on CD26 and have been using OPKs every day since CD3 and so far there is no O in sight!!!!!
It is just so frustrating when your body does not want to cooperate ---- I dont know if I missed it or if my cycle is just a big mess since this is my first month off birth control pills.

Re: Just a vent!
Your body is probably just not used to being off birth control pills. I'd keep testing until u get that positive!! I hope it comes soon for u

Re: Just a vent!
Not to get you upset but sometimes it might take a few months for you to ovulate...but everyone is different.

Re: Just a vent!
First off  - that can be so frustrating!!!!
Secondly, you COULD have missed your LH surge on the OPK's. Sometimes women have a short surge of less than 12 hours so if you're only testing once a day, you theoretically could have missed it.
Have you been checking your CM throughout your cycle? Have you seen any creamy or EWCM? That would be the best indicator of when O is imminent.
The other thing is, like mentioned above, that you may still be adjusting to getting off BC and you may not have ovulated yet. Keep at it!!!!!!!

Re: Just a vent!
Don't worry.. some women take several months to get their cycles regular and to ovulate after coming off BC. I know it's hard, but have patience..
I was like you and thought ok, its the first month of being off the pill, i should be pregnant by now 
and here i am 8 months later still trying..
Everyone is different, but hang in there and you'll do just fine!

Re: Just a vent!
i didn't O for the first 2 months of BCP...give your body time to adjust, i know it's hard but coming off the hormones can make your cycle a little wacky in the beginning

Re: Just a vent!
Keep in mind OPK's don't work for everyone. 2 of my girlfriends never got a high or peak reading on them, and both have babies now. So, clearly they were ovulating. HTH!
