Well no reason to use opks now just creamy cm. So either I o'd already and opk didn't get it or I'm gonna 0 later. Just tested and of course negative. Not sure why the advanced would start flashing that early 5 days ago. Think soy ISO would do that? Guess we shall see
Yes, with DS2 lolQuote:

This is one of those crystal ball questions that I honestly do not know. My advice in this situation is to flip a coin and do what the coin tells you.
Yes, soy iso can absolutely change when you ovulate.Quote:

I really dislike that type of fertility monitor because this same thing has happened to a whole bunch of people.
Sperm technically may last 5-7 days but pregnancies from 5-7 days before O are scarce. Many times when people think they conceived from an attempt really far before O like that, they ovulated early. When scientists tested it using high tech methods to verify ovulation, they found that the vast majority of pregnancies came from sex o-3 through O day and not those really long cutoffs or sex after ovulation. Swaying means this is even more the case because it makes less and more hostile EWCM and the sperm can't survive that long.
:agree: I have seen 9,324,675 people try to get pregnant from 4 and 5 day cutoffs and NONE ever did. Very few get pregnant from 3 day cutoffs either. When people think that they did, and then I talk to them about it, it turns out that they have no idea when they even ovulated, I look at their chart and it's obvious they ovulated early, or they normally have long cycles and got pregnant from BD on CD 12-14...so they probably had a normal cycle that month and Oed early. I have people tell me all the time they got pregnant a week after ovulation or with 2 week cutoffs. You guys have to realize that many people out there, smart, highly educated people, do not have even the most basic grasp of how the menstrual cycle works and so when you're talking to people who say X, Y, and Z about conception, keep in the back of your mind that they may not have any idea what they're talking about.Quote:

I'll keep testing the rest of the month.
Solid this afternoon. Whoo hoo. Course I didn't have anything but j&d. Haven't noticed any ewcm like I usually do but still want to take benedryl or something. Is it too late?
5.5 days from what I thought was attempt so counting as one since O won't come for 12-48 hours anyway. Attempt at solid smiley:) and the soy ISO didn't change my O. Last month got solid at cd17. This time cd16. Last time had lots of cramping and only took 80. This time took 120 and so far good.
No antihistamine after attempt, will dry up fluids that sperm and egg need!!
