I temped and used opks because I have a short LH surge so I have a good chance of maybe missing it with the opks if I'm not on top of things lol. I would have a +opk at 10am then neg by 1pm so I relied a little more on my temps :) I would say do both, temping doesn't take much!
Temping lets you know that ovulation is over, its handy to know so you dont have to keep dtd for days if you are unsure if it has happened or not.
Exactly what Cinss said...
I use my opks to tell me when ovulation is coming and I temp so I'll know with confirmation that it actually happened and that it's over.
Thanks ladies that was really helpful
You can rely on OPK to HELP pinpoint ovulation. But I do want to let you know that timing has been 100% debunked and you will increase odds of pg by quite a lot if you try for more than one attempt in your fertile window O-4/5 thru O day and esp. O-2-O. This will not hurt your blue sway (going for more than one attempt) and may help it.Quote:

It looks more like a fade in.. once the test line is AS DARK as the control, that's meant to be a positive. :)
Bec you are almost there hon. If you are swaying pink with Vitex.. HOP OFF now! :)
