yey, Ribbons!! congratulations, soooooooo happy for you :D
It's hard to say. I was the most beautiful 27/28 day cycle ever, and then I began swaying stuff in December and my first TTC cycle, I suspect my ovulation was delayed-delayed-delayed... which I wasn't expecting, so I got confused, and then even more confused, and gave up. Think my period started January 5th and my next one wasn't until February 29th (if memory is correct). I had stopped the vitex around January 20th or so at that point.Quote:

I still don't know when to start using OPKs! EEEEK! Do you think I should order some cheapies ASAP so I just just start right away? I don't want to miss it. Oh man. :( *has nightmares of a repeat of last time*
Suregena, I would TOTALLY buy some internet cheapies. They have always worked great for me. I also had some pretty crazy cycles and had a hard time pinpointing O - those things saved my life (along with my CBFM, but they were both always pretty much in sync)
The great thing about the cheapies is they are so inexpensive that you can take them multiple times a day if you feel like you're getting close due to timing, EWCM etc. My cycle is (now, b/c of Vitex!) 30-32 days long and I O around CD18. I've been starting my OPKs at CD9 at 4pm-ish, then at CD12 I start doing both late afternoon test and FMU. Once I see a bit of a "fade-in" I start doing them even more than that, so I can catch my surge as early as possible. Of course, it may be overkill as I am a bit of a POAS addict :) but those cheapies are SOOO worthwhile IMO, and they seem to work great for me!
I guess I'm wary because they were allllll negative last time (but, duh, of course they were... it turns out my O was actually delayed in the end!)
Off to eBay I go... I'm on CD6 today! *yeeee*
LOL totally, I've already started one in the TTC Boy section :bigsmile: I need to add to that for all the boy moms AND the pg moms!Quote:

I will find the link and repost!
