Q: Finally, a + Opk

asked by: shortgeek on May 13th, 2007

I got my first opk in three months this morning. Since I'm using fmu, it is probably one day off. I hope I'm ovulating today, but my signs are mixed.

I had a busy morning. We scheduled a grocery delivery for first thing so that we wouldn't miss a brunch reservation with my mil. Anyway, the delivery guy was early and that threw me off a normal morning routine. I didn't remember to take my temp until over an hour after I was up and had put all the groceries away. Anyway, my temp jumped since yesterday and is in my normal post-o range. I hope it was a bad temp because I couldn't suduce my dh last night. He was just too tired. I still have ewcm, so that keeps me hopeful.

I might try to do an experiment. I have never had a opk using anything other than fmu. I'll try with this brand to go 4 hours without fluids or trips to the restroom and see if I still have a .

Exciting!
I was using the internet cheapies for opk and I never got a "clear" positive. The line was never as dark as the test line, but close. It always drove me nuts because I was doubting the .
This month I used the digital opk from Clear Blue Easy...and when that happy face showed up...I was so excited, because for the first time I knew it was actually positive!
Make sure you bd today and tommorrow!
take care

Yeah Yeah Yeah

That's good that you got a clear positive. I know that it has been bugging you for a while these past few months. I guess I am in the same boat as ou were this month with not ovulating but hopefully next month it will be better for me.

Hopefully this will be your month...

I'm glad you finally got a . I wouldn't use that temp. If you took it after you got up and out of bed could throw off your chart.

I agree. My temp was back down below the my usual post-o temps this morning. Based on my signs, I'd say that I probably o'd this morning. We bd'd then, so hopefully we timed it perfectly.

I made it a little over three hours yesterday without drinking any fluids or using the restroom. I had a second line but it wasn't quite dark enough to call it positive. I could barely make it though. I got really thirsty and started getting a head ache. Plus, I really had to pee by the end. I just can't see myself going through that every day around ovulation.
