When do you ovulate?

This is my first month TTC, and I'm using an OPK, but I'm impatient and want to know approximately when I should expect my LH surge. I'm only 4 days since my last period ended, but I'm hoping to see a positive surge by this weekend. When do your surges usually happen- approximately how many days since the first day of your last period?

the average day of Ovulation is about 14 days before your next period, so it depends on how long your cycle is. My cycle averages 24 days, and I usualy Ovulate around CD 13. Hope this helps! GL momma!

Depends on the length of your cycle. I have a 35 day cycle and don't ovulate until CD 20. SO be patient. :)

 I ovulate around CD 14-16.  Depends on how long my cycle is for the month.  Good luck!

This is my first month on clomid and I'm supposed to O between CD14-19.  Probably doesn't help you much.  Do you have any idea how long your cycles normally are?

 for a normal 28 day cycle, you usually ovulate on day 14-16. Counting from the first day of your period as day 1. You just have to watch your body because I usually have a 30 day cycle and the month I got pregnant, I ovulated on day 31...10 days after I thought I ovulated. Dr confirmed it was on day 31. Thankfully, we had sex just about every other day until I got my +.

Honestly, it depends.  Most women's Luteal Phase is always the same (but that varies between women)....SO, if you have two women who have a 28 day cycle and one has a LP of about 15 days (like me) and the other 11....then the first would O around CD 13 and the other CD 17.  In my case, I normally have a 30-32 day cycle...I tend to O around CD 15 or 16....HOWEVER, sickness, anxiety, travelling etc. can cause O delay.  The only way to know your LP length is to temp consistantly.

ANYWAYS, I really suggest watching other signs like cervical mucous and/or position....temping can confirm if you O.  I would start using the OPK once you start having very fertile CM (watery or egg-white).
