Jessy, your tattooist is an amazing artist and worth every single penny looking at your tattoo.
Kim and Citrus, go for it! There isn't any such thing as too late for a tattoo. I started at 14 DIY which was obviously rather silly but I was a reckless teenager without a fear of stabbing myself clearly as I also did all my piercings... I wouldn't do this these days of course! I have about fifteen but would love more at some point, when I can justify the money.
Citrus, did you see your temp dip? Usually, after a positive OPK when you see your temp dip followed by it going back up this is when you ovulated (usually when it dipped I think), but three days of higher temps usually confirms ov. You may see dark OPKs more than a single test or even longer than a day, but usually they start to lighten up which would usually signal ov should happen within a few days (is isn't more than three days after I think, unless you don't ov and you see another peak in lh later on, but this is why temping is important, to clarify this).
I don't feel I'm being clear, I know what I'm on about in my mind. In a nutshell if you ovulate, you should do so within three days max of a positive OPK, but temps will show if you have by going up. You should see a noticeable shift. I will post a photo of my chart, the neatest chart I can find so you can see what I mean.
I think I had a chemical on the chart I'm posting, which is why my lp was slightly longer. I also ovulated the day of my positive OPK (CD12), but if I remember correctly I wasn't sure if the day before this my OPKs were positive, they looked it at first but when they properly dried they didn't look quite as dark. I remember on. CD12 it was positive with my fmu which is unusual for me, and most people I think, but they started to lighten up later in the day

for your smiley face! If your daughter isn't eating don't worry, it's probably the best thing to do providing she's drinking. If she does feel hungry then bananas, white rice, dry white toast (white because it has less fibre therefore won't encourage going to the toilet more) are all good for keeping her settled.
