temps and OPK don't match up... ???

**squamgirl** · September 29th, 2011, 10:29 AM

Thanks Zivic! I will switch my testing to later in the day

And I hear ya... between the OPKs, RepHresh, supps, etc.... we're spending a small fortune to get our daughter

ps- I hope you get your boy!

So I tested at 4 pm and it was POSITIVE!

Since the last time we DTD was on CD 19 and we're at day 22, should I leave well enough alone? Since it's been three days since we've DTD on account of DH being sick, I think the swimmers would have built up too much and we'd be swaying blue if we did it today.

Ah, I'm so nervous about all of this! I just need to calm down.

OK sold, I'll start testing around 4. Now how do I not pee between 12 and 4, maybe I'll have to nap all afternoon

I also got the digitals, it was actually cheaper on amazon to get the box of 20 than it was to get 2 boxes the store brand 3 pack.

I got the box of 20 also and it's a good thing since I've been testing for eleven days straight!
In my defense, I O'd earlier in my previous cycles... day 14 for two cycles and day 18 for the last cycle.

Even though it was a challenge to not pee all afternoon, it was actually easier than going from 10:30 to 1:30. That was killer! Probably because I would eat breakfast at nine (that's the longest I could go without eating) and chugging down a tall glass of water with my fiber supp. Then I was dying until 1:30. With the afternoon wait, I was still dying but I also had DS coming home from school to distract me.

pinkdreams- I see that you're in Japan. Are you military?

Cool, I'm so glad it worked!

I'm afraid I cannot help with girl timing, haven't read about it that much, but you'll have a solid cut-off (3-4 days, right?)
But since we all know timing isn't the most important ( my brother and SIL conceived a boy with 3-4 days cut-off, no swaying of course), maybe BD today? Or you're waiting for O+12?

Oh, thank you for your blue wishes for me!

There wasn't a temp spike today, so I guess O hasn't happened yet. At this point I believe I'm at a 5-day cut-off, so I guess it isn't going to happen. I'm scared to DTD because we'd have too many swimmers. Maybe we could do a compressed frequent release and then DTD. Would it be enough to sway pink?

Although I kind of like the idea of waiting another month- more time to prep our house for another kid, more time to save $$ for a bigger car (our current cars won't fit an infant car seat and two boosters- we've tried), plus job changes that might happen for DH.

This afternoon's OPK was negative. Does that mean that O is past? If we DTD tonight would we be hitting an O+12?
