They won't give us progesterone here I'm afraid Hannah, I have been googling about that though.
Pbn, I know, the temp this morning is confusing. I had a nearly positive opk yesterday, we did bd just in case. I did drink a pretty decent amount of wine last night though so maybe that's thrown my temp off? I've just done another opk and it's darker. So now don't know whether to bd again tonight [emoji85]
Hi eighme, I remember you! Looking forward to seeing your tests soon!
Eshme, looks like you are getting close!
I'm no expert at all but if I were you, I'd probably bd again.

Mummy2boys could definately be the wine giving you a falsely high temp so we'll see how tomorrow mornings temp looks then [emoji3]

Mummy2boys if that's as close to pos on these opks that you usually get then yes I'd probably dtd again if you are happy not swaying attempt wise. If you do o tomorrow and dont bd tonight you still have a really good chance of conception from a 2-o attempt but another attempt tonight will give you an excellent chance (if you o tomorrow) Your other option is to do a version of smep and bd both tonight and tomorrow night giving you three attempts in a row around conception time? What is your gut saying? If deep down you want to keep the one attempt then I'd hold off and dtd again 72 hours after last bd. From memory you *can* experience two shifts?? This would keep you covered that way?

Thanks pbn, you always give such good answers! Does smep mean more chance of girl? I think I'm tempted to do that as last month we bd three nights in a row and I did conceive. I've looked back over the last year and every time I've conceived it's been a -1 attempt or o day and I think I usually o quite quickly after positive opk so I'm tempted to just go for it [emoji85]

A question for you pbn, the picture Mummy 2 shared makes me wonder how much hydration might affect the darkness of my opk. It was darkest for me on March 15 but might it have been positive on the 14th if I had consumed too much water or coffee? I will try to attach pics.

Mummy2boys there's no saying if smep is more pink or blue unfortunately as there's no way to know when you'll o until after the fact... unfortunately for blue swayers they face the same issue, 3 attempts at pos opk but if they o day after pos opk then they potentially only have one attempt that counts depending on how quickly their surge happens... honestly I've seen multiple attempts go both ways... I think once you get to where I *think* you are mentally and physically it's more about whether you'll conceive or not moreso than if you'll conceive pink or blue... my initial reaction is to say go!go!go for it!! Bd every night for even the next 3 days if you can. But it has to sit right with you [emoji173]

Gafan your urine concentration will definitely affect an opk IF you are drinking quite alot of fluids in the morning/day prior to doing your opk in the early afternoon. The recommendation is to limit fluids (I'd say sip only to wet the mouth, no gulping) for at least 2 hours prior to testing. Also hold you pee for that amount of time. If you find it too difficult to hold and/or restrict fluids then I'd strongly recommend using the Clearblue dual hormone digital opks that use fmu [emoji4]
