When is best to dtd after getting a positive opk?

[MissNena]

I got a near positive last night at 7pm then a full blown positive this morning at 10am then a near positive just now at 3:30pm. Should we dtd tonight or tomorrow?

Tonight

These opks confuse the hell out of me!

Thank you @IsTheRainEverComingBack

Both!

Unfortunately DH is complaining saying he’s ill! So don’t think I’ll be able to persuade him to do both 😂 he’s only got the sniffles but you would think it was the end of the world!

Both. And before the positive OPK!

Positive OPK indicates ovulation in 12-36 hours, sperm can live up to 5 days, egg survives 24h so your fertile period is around 5 days before ovulation and 24 hours afterwards.

The ovulation test detects a surge of LH being released which tells your body to ovulate. It doesn’t prove that you have or will, so general advice you’ll get from fertility clinic is every 2-3 days through the whole cycle. Just in case it gears up to ovulate then doesn’t or something.

And it takes sperm 12-24 hours to get where they need to be!! So Dtd before and during a positive has you covered.
