12-36 hours post OPK until an egg is released? I didn't realise the window was so big.

I had a positive OPK last Wednesday and Thursday so here I am testing at '9dpo' when potentially I could only be 7dpo.

I guess this is the problem with not temping...

I have been busy trying to distract myself during the 2ww but am only half way through. Hope everyone else is doing ok.

Writer maybe I got that a bit wrong actually, I just checked the ff website and it says ov should usually happen around 24 hours after a positive ok, not 36! Still it is the next day, not the same day. Last month I got my positive opk two days before ff says I ovved so that must be why I misremembered that "fact" Wink sorry.

The egg is typically released 12-36 hours after your first positive opk, but it can be longer (or shorter).

Smile Mancomb. If my scan was accurate during my last pregnancy, I ovulated three days after my first positive opk and two days after I got a peak on a Clearblue. For some reason, I get positives on ICs the day before a Clearblue so at least it gives me extra notice.

Smile interesting, I use ICs so that sort of matches with my experience. They have been driving me mad this cycle though, I was getting faint-ish lines a week ago but instead of getting stronger they have faded away into nothing at all! Really hoping that I just missed the surge by testing wrong time of day and will be having a lovely temp spike & joining you in the tww soon.

Writerwannabe83 · 20/02/2016 06:56

I can't say much as I'm just leaving for work, and I have no reception at work but I think, think THINK that I may have had an IC squinter this morning!!!! But I mean a really squinty squinter Grin

I guess I will just have to obsessively test over the next few days..... Grin

Eeeeek writer exciting! Hope it is for you.

I'm positive today because after thinking I was 27 of likely 28 day cycle yesterday and 13dpo with negative tests, I started with painful cramps and kept checking for AF which didn't come. Then I checked a different fertility app I have been using and that one said I was 11/12 dpo and not due AF for two days. If that one is true over Ovia then the cramps could have been implantation and not period. I'm more hopeful today after AF still isn't here and I don't usually get cramps before. I'm a realist though and not trying to get too carried away with the the possibility and expecting AF today each time I go to the bathroom.

Tryingtowait · 20/02/2016 09:12

Wow excitingwriter fx for you, keep us updated!
shemozzle hope af stays away for you.

Ff has changed my dates to ovulating on cd14 now and telling me to test on 7th March at 18dpo. I'm thinking of trying to hold out until 6th if no af as it will be Mother's Day :)

How many days po are you mimi?

Writerwannabe83 · 20/02/2016 21:16

I have just got home from work and tested again and I think I can see a faint line again. Surely I can't imagine lines twice?? Mind you, I am obsessed/crazy enough to see lines!!

I guess I will just test again in the morning Grin

queenoftheworld93 · 20/02/2016 21:33

Writerwannabe83 · 20/02/2016 21:36

No, just Internet cheapies. I will try and take some photos...

Writerwannabe83 · 20/02/2016 21:40

They are really rubbish photos because I can't get the camera to focus but the line is definitely there in real life.
