Hey guys, I was just curious about
something. I'm not sure if I am liking
the opk's. If you look at my chart,
(here's the link http://www.Fertility
friend.Com/home/17a16c) you can see
that I had a temp dip on day 12 and then
elevated temps for three days thereafter.
That was the exact pattern I had last
month for ovulation. However, the opk
detected the lh surge during cd 13 and 14.
(i didn't use it until then. I'm just
curious if they could be wrong because it
doesn't add up with the rest of my
fertility signs. My ewcm is gone, my
cervix has moved back down today. I just
don't get it. The opk's are confusing me
more than anything. Don't get me wrong, I
am going to keep doing the deed until I
get a positive ovulation day on my chart
but it's just frustrating. Especially
since we didn't get to bd last night
because i've been a little sick. I feel
absolutely horrible this morning. Maybe I
wil feel better tonight. I hope so. We
had the every other day thing going good
until last night. Which really sucks if
it was my last fertile day. Anyways guys,
any input would be appreciated.
Baby dust to all.

Hi! I don't think you have ovulated yet.
Ff is pretty on with it. How long have
you been temping for? What day do you
normally o on?
The 3 temps that are after that dip should
be higher than the last, I think 4 days
for it to be considered a temperature
shift. If you want you can look at mine.
I take clomid though so mine are pretty on
target now! They used to be horrible and
I couldn't even read them!

I'm feeling the same as you.
This is the first month that I charted
everything an the lh surge seemed later
than the others. Our bding was more in
line with the lh surge and it didn't work
out for us.
I had a lot of uncertainty because I had
elevated temps from being sick around the
o date. I had a small (10 degree) temp
dip on dec 30 followed by a temp rise to
98.0 on dec 31 and then 99, 99.5 and 98.
I had ewcm from dec 28 to jan 1. But it
went away mid-day jan 1 after a sleepless
night. My lh was positive on dec 31 but
barely (i had to drink fluids but I tried
not to dilute my urine too much). Then
it was positive on jan 1 and jan 2.
At first, ff predicted dec 30 as the o
date after the 99.5 temp day. But when
my temp went back down, it said that it
couldn't detect a date. Our bded on dec
29, dec 31, and jan1. I now suspect that
I did o on dec 30 because my temps before
af were around 98 and I did start af 14
days later. Today my temp is 97.59.
But why didn't the opk pick up an lh surge
until after this date? I wonder if the
more expensive tests are more accurate.
I think this month, i'll try bding each
day I have ewcm.
