Forgot how this works

It's been a while since my last TTC adventure, and I realized that I've forgotten a few things - like how to interpret FF and when to start the home stretch. We've been happily in our own every 2-3 day pattern for a couple years now, so I thought it would be easy to maintain until O, but then FF had their pretty green boxes and messed with the rhythm.

Had I not been looking at their boxes, this weekend would have gone like Saturday X, Sunday break, Monday X, Tuesday ?, Wednesday ?

But, the green boxes have made it Saturday X, Sunday X, Monday X, Tuesday X (and still negative opk). Tomorrow SHOULD be a positive OPK (FF had marked today). We are just busier, and older, and I don't mean to complain, but it's just simply harder to keep going on without a break, lol.

If it's not a positive OPK tomorrow, we need a break, but if it is...that will make 5 days in a row...am I just destroying whatever chances I have at swaying? If we get a positive, do we need to make more attempts at that point? I can't even remember if we are supposed to do it again on the day after a positive opk.

Part of me hopes it doesn't happen this month because I've just confused myself and probably ruined my chances.

I totally understand and take a day off if you need to. 5 days in a row is not a dealbreaker since that culminates in the fertile window, most of those attempts were IN the fertile window. But if not a pos OPK tomorrow then yes take a day if you need to.
