When are you meant to DTD after Pos OPK?

babysa · Sep 16th, 2011, 08:04 AM

Last month we DTD day before Pos OPK, day of the test, day after the test, skipped one day and then again the next day...NO Success. Wondering if I should do the same this month or am I doing something wrong?
Thanks x

Sounds good to me!

Looks like you were just unlucky that month.

After a few months charting/opks/temps etc I found that I actually ovulated 2 days after the positive opk.....

So I would try do it before the +opk, the day of the +opk, and the next 3 days after as remember when the egg is released it is there for half a day or so too!!

Hi! this looks good! Maybe DTD everyday from CD8-CD17/18?

Sounds good to me. I'd BD 48 hours after your last pos opk. Some women ov the day they get their + (me) and some women ov 48 hours after their last positive. Remember there's only a 20% success rate each month for a healthy couple that time intercourse right

I don't ovulate until about 48 hours after the test, so that might be what happens to you, so keep going! The positive just indicates that you're getting ready to ovulate, not that you are.

Do you chart at all?

Not always though, some women (like I do) ovulate the day we get our pos. It's really weird because I'll get a pos opk a day or two afterwards sometimes. I wouldn't know that if I didn't chart and I always have very distinct temp rise. It's pretty weird lol

Thanks so much for your helpful replies ladies :-) I dont chart at all, but the last 2 months I had major ovulation pains and ewcm at about CD12, this month however I am now on CD14 and haven't had anything yet??? Why is it every month our bodies feel like we want to be suprised? I am so into everything just staying the same!
This is the 3rd cycle we are trying, so let's hope we get some luck soon...and wishing lots of luck to all of you TTC. x
