Attempt again right away. If you Oed earlier then it won't hurt anything and if you didn't it's better to be in with attempts, then not!

Was dtd tonight a good call? We bd' monday night, Tuesday morning and night then again today.

yes it was the right thing to do, I'd have you DTD again tonight too!!

We will definitely dtd again I just wish I knew what was going on if I o'd late then I got three attempts in DAYS before I even o'd. I took a digital and a test strip at 9am today.. digital went back to negative but the strip was still positive.. I tested again a few minutes ago and got this :tissue: in terms of opk do they usually show positive once the egg has been released? I'm unsure if the lh hormone is there JUST to let your body know to ovulate and then it dissipates so then you might get a negative once ovulation has occured or if the lh surge stays in you even well after ovulation has happened? Does this positive mean the egg might not have been released yet?

I am also attaching my really spotty chart.. I didn't temp for two days because I could have sworn I ovulated. Unfortunately I feel like those missing days would have been key

You can't tell anything from the rate at which OPK go negative. You can have a positive for day(s) after O has occured and you can also have a negative but still have not Oed yet. THE OPK does not measure ovulation. It measures the surge, and while connected they are mutually exclusive from each other.

I would not sign off that you've ovulated yet based on that chart!!! I'm sorry I just can't tell.

Here is my chart for today.. seems like I did ovulate. . The question is when?!

It does not look like you have ovulated yet. You need three high temps above your coverline to indicate that ovulation has taken place. Going by your positive opks, it looks like ovulation "should" happen 24-48 hours after your first positive opk. However, our body's can gear up to ovulate and delay ovulation until conditions are right.

Are you making your attempts at positive opk? If so, you might want to consider BDing every 4 days to be in an attempt that will catch the egg.

FX and GL to you!

My Ovulation Chart

..

Agh I'm sorry J, I would still not sign off on that as ovulation having occured. It does not yet look truly ovulatory to me yet.

Are you trying to use Shettles timing or would you be down with regular attempts to cover yourself???
