Well today was OPK day one...???/

Question

Well I took my 1st OPK today and it wasnt positive.. Its only the 1st day so Im ok tho... LMP was 7/26/08 and I have 29 day cycles so am I doing this right? I have been TTC for 7 months this is my 1st time w/ OPK.. POAS kind. Do you think I have a good chance?

Ok, so youve stared using the OPK before your technically due to ovulate- thats a good plan. I did the same thing. I used an OPK to conceive my son. My cycle is 28 days. I started using them on day 10, just to be sure Iwould catch that ovulation window. Turns out I ovulated on day 12 (as per OPK) so we had s*x that day and the day after. Bingo! First go. Had I waited for a few days to test (thinking I wasnt going to ovulate until day 14), I would have missed my time.

Youre right, you still have a few days left before you are due to ovulate, so dont panic. You might also been in that small percentage of women that ovulate late in their cycles too.

Just keep using the OPK everyday, then you wont miss your fertile window. Your chances are pretty high for conceiving if you do.

Are you also checking your CM? I used both when we tried for my son.

Good good good luck to you. ~~~Baby dust~~~ coming your way!!
