WHOA....opk is + on CD11 now...is this normal?

[LolaInLove]

I've been taking DHEA for the last 6 weeks, and last month I had the 4 days of +opks....I usually ovulate anywhere from CD 13-16, but I just started my opking for this month today at noon (CD11), and it was about 98% positive (as dark as the control line, that is). I am sure it will be very positive by this evening.

So, Atomic, is this normal, in your opinion? Especially with the DHEA? Should we just go ahead and bd tonight?

This kinda caught me by surprise, but I did feel some o pains and crampiness this morning, which clued me in that I may be getting close to O sooner this month, and sure enough, it was nearly positive.

TIA for advice! Yikes!

wow Lola GL DTD.

Thanks, Cemas. I feel like I'm about to take a test that I haven't studied for, but of course, that is not true. I've been powering down some potassium foods, V8, red meat, ACV, and the like today. We're gonna go for it tonight.

I would BD tonight, but I don't put a lot of stock into timing.

For best results in terms of timing (trying to time BD as close as possible to ovulation), you should prob. wait until tomorrow morning but then I'd be afraid if you really ARE ovulating, you'll miss the egg all together.

So I took another opk tonight (around 8pm), and it is way lighter than before....I would say half as dark. Hmmmmm......we may dtd tonight anyway, it's been about 5 days.

I would! I've conceived a boy on about every possible timing there is LOL.

Well, we went for it. For some reason, I have this feeling that I did indeed drop an egg yesterday, because I had all these o pains and such (just like you described in your post about that, Atomic)...and now today, nothing. Is it plausible that the DHEA (or my age or something!) just made me shoot one out super early? I had a regular AF, lasting until day 5....and yesterday was day 11. I usually don't O that early, which is why it's peculiar. Oh well, we gave it a go, and if I get another +, we'll bd again. Thanks for you input, ladies!
