Just took OPK test and have a question
| Tue, 09-09-2003 - 2:05pm |
I have lots of questions today, huh? Anyway, I just took a OPK test for the very first time. I thought that I might be ovulating because I have noticed EWCM the last couple of days. The test shows a surge. My line is darker than the test line. I'm assuming this is telling me I'm ovulating. My question is how much time do I have? I just had a m/c and didn't really expect to be ovulating so soon. So when I noticed EWCM yesterday, I thought it might just be my body getting back to normal after the m/c so I didn't take a OPK test to make sure. Today, however, after talking to my OB nurse about starting to try again, I took the test. Like I said, it shows the surge. So, if I would have taken it yesterday would it too have showed a surge? If so, how long do we have until it's too late? The test says 24-48 hours, but remember, I didn't test yesterday. The only reason I really need to know is because my dh is sick today and probably wont feel like bding. Will we miss it if we don't try today?
Thanks,
Susan

Get out that sexy nighty, the razor and some Barry White and get to work girl ;)
I agree with the last poster that today is the best time to BD. And again tomorrow if you can. It is impossible to know if you are ovulating right now or not for 36 hours. I think if you got a line that dark that you hit the peak of your surge, so ovulation may not be until tomorrow, but it could be today or 48 hours away depending on your body's reaction to the hormone. So maybe tonight you do all the work (it is very rare to get turned down if you make that offer!), tomorrow he may feel better and he'll do the work.
Good Luck!

Thanks for all your help

And I'm serious about the razor, break it out for the "big shave" and you will get great results ;)
Mine was super duper dark yesterday so we bd'd right away! We are bding again tonight and for the rest of the week for sure :D I'd say start right away! yay for you.

I have to slightly agree ( actually really agree) about the razor deal. I've never been one to do that too often, but my very best friend in the whole world ( would never talk about this to anyone else, well except here of course ) was discussing it somewhat the other night, and I decided to get out the razor yesterday. Wow, what a different feeling for me all day, it was like I was non-stop ready, willing , and able, and made for a much more interesting BD Fest I do believe. I think DH enjoyed the change too, I KNOW I did!!!!!!! (( he he he he )). Oh, shame on me!!!! But it's true!!!! Wow, the things we do to try to please our men!!!!!!!
