Am I still in with a chance ?

Hi ladies only managed DTD once this cycle hoping I was in the window.

CD12 DTD evening - negative OPK am and PM

CD 13 couldn’t DTD - negative OPK am (missed pm fell asleep was exhausted) but pretty sure I had ovulation pains CD 13 late evening it woke me up.

CD14 Postive OPK am and PM -

CD 15 OPK very slightly lighter am, stopped testing

Every month I’ve been getting positive OPK’s either CD13-CD14 of a 26-28 day cycle,, but I’m sure I ovulate the same day as my opk’s or very very shortly after (sharp pain feeling)

Anyway thoughts on my window. I’m getting a bit fed up and think I need take a more relaxed approach. It’s driving me nuts now.

Hi! Regarding the ovulation pain, it's also possible that the pain you're feeling - or discomfort - isn't directly linked to ovulation but things like follicles rubbing together. Just as an aside.
So you 'only' DTD 2, potentially 3 days before ovulation? I'd say you're still in.

Yes only once CD12 this month. For the last 8 months it’s been every day sometimes twice a day until way after ovulation. Not worked for me, with only doing it once and quite far away from ovulation I’m thinking am I really in the window.

Yea this cycle I only dtd twice, 3 days before actual ovulation day and one day before actual ovulation day. Was too tired to dtd on actual ovulation day and the day after.

Last month we dtd every day during fertile window, it wasn't successful and we were shattered by the end of it!

I'm not holding on to much hope for this time round as we didn't really hit critical days, but also I had my 2nd covid jab at the beginning of my cycle that threw off ovulation by a week

In theory we have done "bare minimum" as have you to be in with a chance :)

@andpeggy1 wish I could of given it another go the day before O just to cover my self 😢 but we shall see. I’m not getting my hopes up though. I keep swearing blind every month I’ve got symptoms and a couple of months I’ve even had a squinter of a faint line on a FRER but I’ve put it down to evap lines. I suppose it will happen when it happens but it isn’t half deflating me now when AF shows up. My first 2 kids were literally one time dtd no opk’s no apps no monitoring anything. Now I’m older it’s so much harder to get pregnant. Fingers crossed for both of us 😁.
