Hi I am 20 years old also however we are TTC # 3 we started very young. my husband will be 24 next month and we have a 3 year old daughter and 2 year old son I just got my Mirena IUD removed last Friday so we are pretty new to the TTC concept we are going to try this month and then skipping the following two just because my two other children were born in Feb so we don't want to risk it. I cant wait though I feel like July is never going to get here. Anyways my friends are already tired of hearing me talk about this. I ordered my OPK's a few days ago and they were supposed to get here today but they didn't so i am going insane! I cant wait! LOL anyways it would be amazing to have another young woman TTC to talk to

hi this is whst i found online

"4. What if my OPK is positive for several days in a row? It is possible, in a normal ovulation, to have a positive OPK for several days in a row. This is because LH peaks (surges) about 12-36 hours before ovulation occurs, and then dissipates. So, you could theoretically detect this high level of LH with positive OPK's from the time it begins to the time it dissipates-- over 36 hours.

It is also possible that your body is "gearing up" to ovulate, and you have an LH surge-- and then, for some reason (such as stress, illness, travel, or random fluke), your body fails to release an egg . . . then tries, tries again ASAP with another, or overlapping, surge. If you see a positive OPK for longer than 3 consecutive days, your egg is probably just having a little trouble getting out of the starting gate. If this happens to you occasionally, it's no big deal. If it happens a lot, talk to your doctor"

Hi Brooke, nice to meet you Wishing you the best of luck and lots of baby dust as you work towards baby #3. I am 26, and my husband is 28. We are TTC for our first, but only started trying two months ago. I'm waiting to test on maybe Monday or Tuesday (don't really know when AF is due as last month it was 5 days late and only lasted 2 days). Look forward to chatting with you

Thanks

I've read all about that. I'm still learning all about these OPK's. I only have one test left, so I might use it tomorrow and see if it's still positive...

How are you doing today? I have some more mild cramping this morning, but it's not too bad. I'm so glad it's Friday...7 more hours and my weekend begins!

Thanks nice to meet you two. Thanks. Yes, my first time actively ttc. Well with my first we were not careful at all lets just say we had 3 chances a day everyday for 3 years before I got pregnant and my second we just BD'd one time and it happened. Yes, I def know the symptoms with my daughter i had only breast tenderness and my son i thought i was going to die. With my second( my son) I actually took around 12 preg tests went to 3 doctors and they all told me neg so i went on a cruise and got terrible pains and ended up in the infirmary(dont really know if i spelled that right) and they tested me too and neg and i was already 4 months so when i got home i went to the doctors again thinking something was really wrong with me and sure enough it came up positive finally after 4 1/2 months CRAZY. I am from San Diego, CA what about you? I just started using my OPK's today. I am starting Vitamins today and no, he has not quit drinking he drinks beer like once a week and I have quit no more alcohol for me til PP. I hope it is your month too my husband thinks we should quit trying and start in july he informed me of today that way we have a little time to catch up financially after the xmas then my childrens bday's who knows I bet he will change his mind. I hope to hear back from you
