BFP Insight Please!!!

I have no idea how to post my FF chart.

SO ksmom, was your positive OPK test a result of a high estrogen surge or was it detecting the pregnancy hormone? I also got a high fertility read on my OPK 7 days after we BD.

The ONLY days we BD were: June 24th (Seems like this was the one that got me pregnant) and again July 1st and July 5th. I got high fertility reads July 1, 2, 3, 4 and on July 5th I got a Peak. I took a pregnancy test and it was positive on July 10th. I was having symptoms already since July 7th however.
LMP was June 11th.

You probably ovulated day 15 or 16, maybe later as sperm can hang around a few days. It is great for your girl sway having just the one attempt

Thanks,
I waited a week to have another attempt because i didn't think i was even fertile since the reading was low. e4d was a bit much for us so after that one attempt i just waiting to get a positive OPK but looks like that didn't matter since I was already pregnant. I agree that i must have ovulated on CD 15 or CD16.
Actually CD 15 is when i had a crazy dream of having a daughter and we were in a pool and she had orange water wings on and she was trying to swim through a tube attached to the pool. It was super weird.

It was likely detecting the estrogen surge that happens around 7 dpo, pregnant or not. When I tested the next day, the line was super faint that I actually wasn't even sure if it was positive or not so I doubt anything would have showed the prior day. My beta two days later was only a 16. OPKs are not as sensitive as HPTs in detecting pregnancy hormone so they will be positive after the HPT is. I think more than likely you conceived from BD on the 24th of June.

I agree ksmom. Thanks ladies!

AUGH where is my answer?????

Ok, well, I already replied to this yesterday but it's not here. Sigh.

Fertility monitors and OPK only detect pregnancy AFTER a pregnancy would be detected reliably by a pregnancy test. At 7 DPO, a pregnancy would not be detected reliably by a pregnancy test and thus could not have been detected by a fertility monitor. If you were 7 DPO and getting a "high" on your monitor that had to be secondary estrogen surge UNLESS you were not really 7 DPO!!
