4 positive opks now, maybe I'm doing something wrong?

Ok...had a lunatic temp this morning!! I had no idea why!! unless i misread my thermometer!! Will see tomorrow I suppose!

Tina - I would always get multiple days of +opks too so I switched to the clearblue digi opks. They're more expensive but they take the guess work out of it.

 

[HopefulPony]

Some people recommend you stop testing after the first positive as the surge can take a while to leave your system

 

[TTTTina]

I was thinking of switching over to them next cycle if I need to.

 

[Savasanna]

My advice: If you decide to, make sure you get the clearblue regular, NOT the advanced. The regular is a simple smiley face/no smiley. Easy peasy. The advanced does "you should receive two days of flashing smiley to show high fertility, and then a solid smiley once you've reached your peak". Buuut.. sometimes you skip the flashing smiley and go straight to the solid? Sometimes you stay with flashing and never get the solid? It just adds more confusion to the table, IMO

Well, just done a pregnancy test to satisfy the hubby as my AF was 3 1/2 days long and TMI but just checked my cervix and had a glob of brown jelly CM, tested with an ovulation strip and both definitely negative. So what the heck is this mornings temp about :/ Im tempted to change it to what i initially thought I read it at but when I checked it was way high...weird!!

My AF only lasted 3 days too ginge, but I was super heavy for 2 days. Not sure if thats why.

Weird AF Ginge! That's what mine was like after the chemical last month.

Just wanted to say - it's official! Can't say no to a digi

5 positive opks now.....according to my apps I've already ovulated so I dunno

 

[Savasanna]

My obgyn has instructed me to go off the first +opk, so you may have already ovulated. Do you temp? That could give you more info but honestly I'm starting to hate temping. At a certain point I think it's more confusion than it's worth. I think I'm going to stop temping around ovulation time so I can stop obsessing over when exactly I o-ed.

 

[x-ginge-x]

my temps are like right now and i dont know which to go by :/ blah!

 

[TTTTina]

I don't temp, I was going to start next month and see how that goes

 

[Savasanna]

Just made myself an appointment with an acupuncturist! Here's hoping it helps!

 

[x-ginge-x]

Hmm, felt my cervix as I noticed as I was 'wet' and its high and soft, got lots of discharge at the minute, ick! lol
