Hey ladies, I have been lurking but haven't officially joined the January thread yet. I'm thinking my test day will be right around Jan 13th as of now. I'm thrilled to see BFP's already and I'm with everyone else nico I'm dying for you to test.

AFM- I need some advice ladies. This is my very first cycle of trying iui. I took femara on CD 3-7 and I'm currently waiting to ovulate. My doctor said that I need to go in the day after a positive OPK for insemination. Well because of the holiday season, there are several days the lab is closed, New Years Day being one of them. I took an OPK this afternoon and I'm almost positive that it is going to be positive tomorrow which won't work out for iui. My question is, do you ladies think it would be ok for me to call the doctor tonight and say my positive was today so I can get squeezed in for iui tomorrow. I don't want to waste my money and have a useless iui but I also hate the thought of missing it completely this month. I will post the pictures of my OPK today. I just want to know, what would you do? The first photo is in the time frame still wet and the second photo is after it dried.

FYI: Your OPK is the darkest mine ever got this cycle (first one using them) AND I tested twice per day, trying not to miss it. Unless you are sure yours get darker and/or your surge for more than a day (or part of one in my case), I'd take that as "positive enough" for the IUI!

Again another congrats to nico.

Well said Loro. I've had my ups and downs as well and I'm in the "I just want to have fun mood" right now. Yesterday we even used lube that wasn't preseed. If you ask my husband, he would assure you that that is a big BIG no no in my TTC book. I did buy some all natural stuff with only 3 ingredients and no acid so I'm hoping it won't be too bad. The point is we were able to just have fun this weekend and it was probably the best sex we have ever had.

I'd like to say thank you for everyone's advice and a special thanks to nico for posting those pictures. I'm not sure that my OPK's ever get as dark as yours but in response to a couple other ladies, yes I know for sure my OPK's get darker than that. I took another 4 hours after that last test and it is darker. I know that it will probably be a little bit darker tomorrow morning but I know my body pretty well and this is it. I won't have these dark OPK's for a couple days and then a positive, I will for sure have a dark positive by morning. I went ahead and called the doctors office and left a message. I said in the message that I got my positive later in the day so if I could get in a little later tomorrow that would be great. The message says that they will call between 7 and 8 in the morning and let me know when to come in. I'm excited and I'm nervous and I really just don't know what to feel lol. I know that even with iui our chances are only 15-20% to get pregnant. At least I think that's what I read online. Here are the pictures of my second OPK...

Totally honest we BD'd once only! They day my OPK test was darker than the control line we did it that night only. So guessing by the general rule you ovulate between 24-48hrs after a positive OPK

NICO- The first time the hubby and I got pregnant the first time around was when we didn't do any counting or anything. Just kind of gave up and had a good time. I think we may have bded 5 times that month, not on any particular day.

Congratulations!!!
