Please Help! Urgent!

Hi! I am a bit frantic at the moment and I need some advice. I was advised to do DTD at +OPK.
I stupidly bought some cheap OPKs from the internet. I came close to 2 +OPKs and I posted them on our FB group. I was advised that they were close but not close enough - and I felt the same way. (This was CD 12 & 13) my maybe baby was only partial ferning so I left it be as my DH is doing abstaining. I done the maybe baby this morning and I had full ferns. I was sick of trying to read the OPKs so I went and bought the clear blue digital OPKs. I had some twinges in my right side early this morning also. I just got home and done the smiley face OPK and its negative!
what the eff do I do??? my pH is 4.5, and I have very little creamy CM. I usually have lots of EWCM and I usually ovulate around CD 20-23. This is my first cycle off vitex and SP.
I really dont know what to do and I dont want to just miss this cycle. Do I got for it right now or attempt a O+12 tonight? Please advise me on what I should do!!

What CD are you on now?

[Pinktink]

I'm CD 14

[Pinktink]

Last cycle I O CD20 and the one before was CD22

What does full fearns normally mean? is it the same as OPK where you will O within 24-48 hours or is it a different timeframe?

[Pinktink]

Yes, the full ferning indicates to me that ov happens 24-48 hours after . I just don't know if I trust the maybe baby and dtd tonight thinking it's a -2, dtd tonight thinking I have O today making it a O+12 attempt or hold out until I get a +OPK. This is driving me crazy lol! And thankyou for your replies :)

Obviously I am not an expert, I hate OPKs and interpreting them and I have never used ferning. However if it was me, i would BD today and keep taking OPKs to see if you get a positive. At least you are then in with a chance if the ferning is right and you do O today or tomorrow. And you never know, if you take another OPK today it may be positive.

I would bd today and 4 days later to have a chance at getting one bd at pos opk but I think you may have missed it this month xx

You usually ovulate around CD 20-24? And you're CD 14? That's a big difference!
Just do it. You'll feel better and, as already mentioned, if you get a positive OPK later, you can do the it again in 4 days to be in your furtile time. Perhaps DH will have to move from abstain to CFR?
I'm sure if Atomic sees this, she'll have some solid advice for you :)

I would do it too just for peace of mind, but I don't personally like the ferning thing, never worked quite right for me. I would definitely stick to the OPK's and would even try FMU and 2MU if still negative, as I got many negatives with FMU and then positive with 2MU! Good luck and a blaring BFP for you soon. x
