Quick OPK Help

[Hopingforpink2014]

Just took this OPK and if it is like previous months it will get darker tomorrow. However, we are doing the release every 2-4 days and today is the fourth day. Would you DTD tonight on the verge of ovulating or wait until the morning for a darker OPK? And if we wait, do we release tonight knowing we will probably BD in the morning?21034

I had this exact same problem this month. I went ahead and DTD on schedule (even though I figured my sticks would get darker tomorrow) because one month I had assumed I would ovulate 2 days after the lighter stick (one day after the darker stick) and that month I ovulated early and I missed ovulation! I ovulated the day of the first light stick (even though I never do that!).

In general I think most people will tell you to wait until tomorrow (and in most cases that's probably best), but just wanted to share my experience in case it helps!

Have you had any unprotected sex this cycle? If not, I would attempt today, not tomorrow. Then attempt again in 4 days.

Tonight or tomorrow morning...flip a coin! NOT BOTH!

There is NOTHING magic about waiting till a positive OPK. If your OPK is very nearly there and it's bedtime and you want to BD, GO AHEAD.
