Seemingly simple ovulation question...just want to make sure I have it right.

_jellybean_ · Apr 14th, 2012, 11:36 AM

Question--30 day cycle, when would I O?Day 15, right?

32 day cycle, when would I probably O?
Day 16, right?

Obviously, I'm asking for the most likely scenario. I'm using OPKs, but still getting negatives. Just trying to figure out the best days to baby dance.

Thanks.

When I was trying for ds I used to o on cd 9 on a 28 day cycle. This time it seems to be around cd 16 xx

Thanks. I wonder if my cycles have changed. My period was longer, but with literally no cramps or anything. Strange.

Hey jellybean, just wanted to put my .02 cents in... I'm on a 28 day cycle and ovulate on day 16 (most always but get a weird month here and there)...

are you testing twice a day? They say to get the *best* results to test between 2-4 everyday - that might help ya pinpoint it a lil better?

I've learned OPK's take lots of practice! Keeping working at it

I agree with needababynow. At first you need to test 2-3 times a day. Between 12-8. some people have short surges. I use the cheapies and if I think I've got a +, then I use a digi to back it up. That helps cut costs down. I just pee in a cup, vs on the strip, so it is all tested with the same urine.

Third one agreeing. Test a couple of times a day if needed. I got a strong line late evening this month, so may have missed that if I hadn't followed up a lighter line I had earlier in the day that effectively would be classed as negative.
