Or maybe tomorrow lol... Did Opk yesterday morning, almost positive second line and flashing smilely. Yesterday evening solid smiley and strong positive on IC. This morning second line feinter and defo not as strong. Bbt dip yesterday and significant rise today. So I am thinking today is O day. Do you agree? Or can u get positive Opk and not ov for a couple of days? If that were the case, would it have gotten feinter this morning? Bd'd the last two days and will again tonight. Here's hoping!!! Who else is out there?

I'm exactly the same as you OP! Nearly + yesterday morning with bbt dip, strong + yesterday evening and bbt rise today. Looks like I ovulated yesterday. This is month 7 for us and first month I've charted properly.

When are you expecting AF?

@SophieStripe my hubby wants to test on Valentine's Day! What a killer!!! I'm in quite a lot of discomfort tho tbh. Bad cramps in my lower abdomen constantly and it's weirding me out. I though ovulation was done and dusted and thinking 'I can't still be cramping from that can I?!'
When are you all deciding to test??

Really similar situation here, had a positive opk on Monday afternoon! Apparently once the surge is detected, ovulation can be between 12 and 36 hours later so could be a couple of days. The only way to know for sure if temping (which seems a huge faff). I find ewcm the best indicator so start dtd when I get a positive opk and keep going until ewcm stops!

@beckya82 I'm 34 so only just behind you. I would say this is our first proper month too. First time happened so easily. Last month did opk etc but AF was still out of whack so hopefully this month is first normal month when I can say we are officially trying and have some potential! Had 2nd temp rise this morning so now defo think ovulation was yesterday. Exciting! When will u test?

This is our first 'proper' month I guess. Had my implant out on 13th Nov but didn't get a period untill 12 Jan so this seems our first proper go at it. I'm 35 now so hoping it doesn't take too long but I'm possibly being naive! Lol. Hmm I do suspect pcos but doctor refused to test for that untill I've been trying six months Confused

Weirdly I had really strong OV pains last week for like 3/4 days straight. But completely negative OPKs. We BD then just in case too ha. Some of these feelings I think I have never had before but I just don't know if I never paid attention before or felt it, but was just like oh that's a funny pain and then ignored it cos I wasn't paying attention to my cycle and therefore didn't link it to ovulation... Who knows. Last month I felt I had lots of pregnancy symptoms so I am trying to ignore them and not think about it at all! Last time I was pregnant (ended in MC) I had zero symptoms but googled symptoms because I had a funny metal taste! Was so shocked. We wanted to be pregnant but we weren't exactly "trying" (like Opk, temping etc). Is this ur first month?

My blazing positive was Sunday! Was a really strong line but then I had really sharp pains in my left lower abdomen (really strong) so I think I must have had the positive surge and then ovulation was probably yesterday. I'm ruined from all the BD'ing haha Grin
Feel weird in lower tummy today, full and heavy. Not comfy!

Hello becky and pinacolada, welcome! We are all literally days within each other, that's cool. I took another Opk just now and there was still a second line but defo less than control line. My blazing positive was last night, so when do u think ovulation will happen or has it happened already? Had a temp rise this morning. Should we BD again tonight? I'm exhausted lol

Yes please do! I'm relatively new too but have been reading theses boards and doing lots of research for the last couple months. Is this going to be your first baby?
