OPK timing. Do I have a chance?

[CapitalChick]

DH and I had been BDing every night for about 5 days leading up to the weekend. Then, I used an OPK test on Saturday at 5pm and the lines were of equal strength. We BDed within an hour of getting that response. I took another test at noon the following day and the test line was very dark. Unfortunately, we didn't get any real BDing in that day or on Monday morning. Do you think that I still have a chance?

I think you have a great chance, maybe you can help me figure mine out?

Yer still have a chance the best time to BD is the two days prior to ovulation then the day of ovulation and day after so you've pretty much hit all bases! Good luck x

I've not used OPKs so I'm not sure of the technicalities but based on the othre info I think you still have a good chance - as good as me and I was totally winging it in comparision! Only monitoring CM and O pains and rough dates at the mo and I still have hope - try to be positive darling!

A note about OPK kits that you should know...This month was the first time I used them. Before this month, I always relied on CM and o-pains, which I get a lot. Well, it turns out that I got the LH surge nearly 4 days BEFORE I would usually get O-pains. So...I think it's worth the investment to make sure you're not timing things wrong!

I've invested in some this month, did one today but no line as yet but think i'm gonna keep going to make sure i don't miss it this month!

Thanks CC - this month we have been BDing from CD10 every/every other day until CD21 then just when we fancy! If I dont get my BFP in the next couple of months I'll deffo invest. Ta!

You have a very good chance - good timing

BD every day though isn't always the best idea - every 2nd day

I think you are still in. The spermies can live inside you for as long as 5 days!! So if they are there right when the egg is released, that is best! Don't worry! Lots of !!
