When the see the first EWCM is it the first day of fertile window??
No. You can have EWCM for many days before the true fertile window even opens. And even for a couple days after ovulation sometimes.
Ohhh. I was wondering the start is the first day of FW and the end is the last day of FW... Will see to it now
No, it would be handy if it was true but unfortunatley it isn't the case.
Good afternoon..
So tensed atomic. My cycle length is 27 days, I used to bleed for full 4 days.. ll pretty much have an idea of when I probably ovulate.
Problem here is that, this month my periods are too light.. Today is my cycle day 3. I didn't bleed like before even for 2 days (maybe because of the LE diet) Is this normal?? Will that fluctuate my fertile days or ovulation??
I seriously don't have an idea of when I should do the opk??? Which cycle day do you want me to start with opk??
Please help atomic:-(
That is very common with pink swayers. Many of us noticed our periods became lighter when swaying pink, myself included.
The length of your period has nothing to do with your fertile days.
I'd like you to start OPK CD 8-10 so you can see them go from negative to positive. In future months when you're used to them, you can start them later.
Ok atomic thank you so much.
I ll start with opk from cycle day 9...
TY
Atomic help ASAP..
I just did the OPK and I got a +line, the test line is same colour as the control line. Is it the best time to do my one attempt?? Or should I wait till tomorrow for the line to get darker??

And atomic will I get pregnant with no EWCM.
Before swaying I had lots of it but this cycle I have zero EWCM?? Is it ok to DTD without any EWCM?? :-(
Yes it is fine to TTC with no EWCM. Many people hope for that with a girl, although I'm not convinced it matters. (I got pregnant with no EWCM, and I didn't even realize I had ovulated even though I was testing pH 2-3 times a day. I got a boy despite that!)
Attempt now! It's your first positive, not the darkest.
Sorry to jump on is it the first time a second line appears you attempt or when the lines become the same darkness as each other?
Thank you atomic. Thank god EWCM doesn't matter much..Quote:

Hi, I want to ask about OPK too. Our girl sway will be this month. I really need help. I watched my OV 6months with OPK. When I get positive OPK, I think that day arrived ovulation. 2 years ago using this method we caught our boy (no sway at all). My cycle is 23-25 days, positive OPK 3 months was on 11 cd, other 3 cycles on 14. I think supps using (cranberry, vit C, Ca, Mg citrates) could affect this. Whent I need to do my attempt? DH will abstain at least 11 days, I am on LE diet(also no red meat, patatoes, bananas). Thanks a lot.
Thank you atomic. Glad that I did my attempt on my first pos OPK. Coz last night I had my ovulation (lot more pain, twinge than ever) If I had waited for the line to get darker then it would have been too late definitely, I would probably have missed a good chance this cycle..Quote:

(but of course your O can still come CD 12 or any other day!) The important thing is the one attempt. Your choice to make.
Thanks atomic. I think I have a boy, because we dtd every day or every other day all the cycle after my period, so I strongly believe in one attempt and I'll do BD when OPK will be dark, but not yet positive. Thanks for answering.Quote:

So is the right timing for a girl to dtd at the first positive opk? This for me seems to be the day before ovulation Thanks
Timing doesn't sway. It doesn't work and has been completely debunked by scientists using modern technology. Dr Shettles died 20 years ago and all the people selling things in his name are simply repackaging his old information (which has been debunked) and reseling the same thing. You can read a full case against timing here. https://www.genderdreaming.com/forum...le-timing.html
If you want timing, that's your option! Just plan to have attempt 2-3 days before you expect to ovulate, and then pray you actually ovulate that day! But we have found that it's really having just one attempt that sways, no matter what day you have it on, and so we have our attempt at the first positive OPK since it's a good time to conceive with one attempt.
