[AshNTom]

Buddies wanted! im 20 years old, and am ttc #1.

[Hope2be2013]

I'm 23 & trying for number 1 too!! I'll be buddies with you! What CD are you on?

 

[AshNTom]

CD7 you??

 

[Hope2be2013]

CD16 tomorrow... But still no positive OPK yet. I'm very confused with all this! It can be so overwhelming

 

[AshNTom]

i havent yet used opks, think itd stress me out way to much, if we get to 4 or 5 months of ttc and nothing, then we might go down that path. there is so much information around its overwhelming trying to make scense of it all lol

i think with the opks, the lines are meant to be even colours when your ovulating but not 100% sure.
This website is a heaven sent https://www.pregnancy-education.com/

I'm going to look at that site tonight while I'm at work! I have a whole 7 hours left :/
I wasn't planning on doing OPKs this early on either...actually in January I missed a ton of my pills and didnt care because we decided to "NTNP". Well that status faded quickly because we got excited. Now we are definitely TTC!!

 

[AshNTom]

its great! it breaks everything down nice and simple. I never missed any pills lol. we just decided that at the end of the active pills of my last packet i just stopped taking them and havent looked back lol.. only 9 days into the ttc phase so very very new.

 

[Hope2be2013]

Well I'm brand new right there with you!! I'm excited, nervous, anxious... Everything! Are you temping?

 

[AshNTom]

hey!! yes ive been temping, but onl 4 days post af.. will be interesting to see result of just 1 cycle, what about yourself?

 

[Hope2be2013]

I started everything so late because we were "NTNP" at the beginning of my cycle. So I've been temping and OPK for about 3 days. I haven't really seen a pattern yet. It's hard because I'm a night shift nurse and I don't sleep/wake up at the same times every day. I don't think temping is ever going to work too well for me because of my job. I'm taking another OPK this morning when I get home. Probably around 8 am, and I'll temp once I sleep for a few hours, but it will probably be off because I've been off the past few days and was temping in the morning.
Have you seen a pattern yet? Or is it all over the place?

 

[AshNTom]

Hmm may not work well for you but there's no harm in trying hey?

I haven't really seen a pattern yet, it's been 36.3, 36.5, 36.6, 36.4

 

[Hope2be2013]

Mine is usually between 97.22-97.55... 4 days ago it was 98.00! That's why I'm wondering if I ovulated early..

Maybe you did ovulate early then! My temp jas been 35.4 for the last 3 days in a row, shoul make spotting the chane easy lol

 

[Hope2be2013]

yeah, at least you are consistent! I'm excited to see what happens with your chart the next few days!

superovulation?? there is a thread on here with some one else with similar temp.. not sure tho

 

[Hope2be2013]

I just hope I ovulated at some point before I started using OPKs because I have gotten negatives every day that I have tested!
