OPK Test, When?
| Sun, 09-28-2008 - 5:27pm |
Hey ladies,
So, i'm on day 6 of a normal 45 day cycle. I'm hoping by the grace of God my cycle shortens this month. I'm 6 months post BCP.
Anyway, when should I start the OPK testing? I've been putting off buying the test kit because, lets face it, if i'm on my normal 45 day cycle, I've still got quite some time to wait for O. I certainly don't want to miss O, so anyone have any suggestions on when I should start testing?
My chart is pasted below, which by the way my temp. has gone wacky the first half of this month, which I'm not sure is normal either.

Hi Jenna, it is still pretty early in your cycle, so your temps might be a little high becauase of that, mine sometimes are, and then they settle closer to day 7 or 8 i'd say.
anyway, if i ever waste my money on OPKS (those annoying things, LOL) i get them at the dollar store, or better yet, at http://shop.ebay.com/merchant/youwannaknow for approx 25 cents each when you buy in bulk (only $9 total with shipping) and then i can test multiple times a day!!
Since i know that i have a few days (3days?) of EWCM before i ovulate, i will wait until i start to see EWCm before i test. do you know your CM history? that can help.
GL!!
