I posted this in a reply in another post- my apologies...
CD7, clear/watery cm
Another member asked if I did an OPK yet, so I figured I should.
The lines showed up before 3 minutes was up. Does that look like a pretty desent indicator that I'm Oing? I'm new to these little suckers.
My FF says I won't O for 6 more days, so I'm slightly confused.
Thank you SO much! I REALLY appreciate the help and advice!
Quoting Analeigh2012:
The biggest thing to remember about temping - same method, same time every day as soon as you wake - no talking, walking, kissing, chewing, etc. temp first. Your temps should all be about the same. At least 6 in a row before O. Day of O you will see a dramatic rise in temp above the 6 before. Spike = you Od. If you breathe through your mouth at night, your temps will be all over -looks like a spiky roller coaster. Not accurate. Switch to vaginal temping. Same thing as with OPKs. If you drink tons of water daily, you may never get a positive OPK - your urine will be diluted. So stop drinking 2-3 hours before testing with an OPK. You will get the hang of it!
Quoting sprinkles9112:Thank you! I've been temping too, unfortunately that confuses me too LOL But I'm hoping! There'd better be an egg getting ready!
Quoting Analeigh2012:
Once you get a positive OPK, you should O in 24-36 hours. OPKs indicate a surge in the hormone that triggers ovulation. So if you have follicles with eggs mature, you will ovulate them. You can have a surge (positive OPK) and no eggs (so no ovulation). Temping would verify if you O. GL, I hope you catch an eggie!!
Quoting IloveKaya:The test line needs to be as dark, or darker than the control line. Looks like you have a few more days. But keep bd'ing!!
My first cycle off bc pills had me worried it was going to take me a while to get back to normal. I wound up having a 37 cycle day which has NEVER happened.
Hoping this is it. I was nervous about possibly conceiving a Decemeber birthday baby at first, but now, I don't care and neither does DH...we just want behbehs! :D
