I started the diet around three weeks ago and I was expecting to ovulate on Monday and DTD on Sunday, but from the OPK it looks like I might be ovulating sooner. The first pic will be OPKs from my previous month, and then a pic of today and yesterdays OPK. Please tell me what you guys think. I'm thinking I might get a positive OPK. But I usually get them for two days so I'm unsure of when to DTD. Tonight, or tomorrow? The first pic I got my first not really blazing positive at CD 12 but didn't get a blazing until the next day CD 13....today is CD 9 this cycle and I'm getting almost a faint positive like CD 12.....I'm confused. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180726/bafa295f23aa10060a6be8faceb57abe.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180726/7a7cdec655b6fd4b2ef3ee964390f3c6.jpg

OPK from last month don't really predict when you'll ovulate. It can be different every month. You may ovulate a little sooner this month or it may go back to lighter tomorrow. It does not look positive to me yet, I'd keep testing but just keep in mind that if you surge tomorrow (CD 10) that could put you on target for CD 12 O - which is totally normal.

But, just to cover our bases here, I would have an attempt now. It is pretty unlikely that an attempt on CD 9 will be viable for later ovulation but it will cover you in case of the unlikely event that you O on CD 10/11. Then, keep testing. If you get your positive on CD 10, 11 or 12, stick wwith the attempt you have already had. No matter what, have another attempt on CD 13 to cover the next few days in case you don't get another positive.

I waited until CD 11 when I got my first positive OPK and I fear that the sperm didn't have enough time to get to the egg since FF is saying I ovulated that same day.....thoughts? I was expecting to ovulate on CD12 after I got my first positive on CD11, but must be I assumed wrong.....what are the chances that it was a good attempt and will be fine? I can attach my new OPK sheet later when I get home. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180731/7f27ce385a660aef708fe5647a128bfa.jpg

I find it unlikely you Oed on CD 11 but even if you did, the CD 11 attempt would have been viable. I think you had a well timed attempt! good luck and pink dust!

I agree I think CD 12 is much more likely!! FXFXFX!!
