POLL-- How long is your cycle and what cycle day do you ovulate?

Question

I think i may have missed my o but not sure?  I have a normal, always on time 28day cycle, and today is cd14 for me and i haven't seen a positive OPK so far.  At least I don't think so.  My line was somewhat dark on cd 8  and it has actually gotten lighter all week...  It's quite confusing.  Because my temps are still low.  Feel free to peek at my ov. tracker and tell me what you think.  So...    I am just curious about when you all ovulate and what the normal cycle length for you all?

Congrats on your +!  I just got my OPK+ today too!  And EWCM.  I'm psyched.  This is my first month on Femara, and I didn't O last month, so I was starting to get worried!  I usually O cd17-19, but I'd heard of Oing early on Femara and today is CD16, so I am right on time.  Here's to a long weekend of BDing!  The only problem for us - we are currently visiting my parents and tomorrow we leave to spend the long weekend with DH's parents.  Awkward, but oh well!  Lots of luck for a hpt+ in two weeks!

mine is 36-41 days (yeah I really want to see a doctor about this) and I haven't figured out when I ovulate yet...

my cycle is 27-29 days and i usually O around 13-14 of my cycle, but not always, i have O'd earlier too, i think if you start to bd around 10 and go all the way thru the cycle you should cover it. good luck:)

My cycles are typically 26 or 27 days.  They have been as long as 28 and as short as 24 to 25, but that is not common.  I usually O on cd 12, 13 or 14.

Thanks so much!!  I have to take my 15yo son to meet some of his friends at the movies tonight, in a neighboring city.  I was going to meet up with my hubby there but when I got the positve opk I called him home for a quickie BEFORE going to the movies.  Smart move huh.  And AFTERWARDS too!  And tomorrow morning, LOL.  And Sunday morning.

Then tomorrow we have two football games (my sons) during the day and at night my other son is having a spend the night party and will have a house full of 12 year old boys at our house...  

Going to be a busy weekend that is for sure!!  But Babydancin is a must...  My DH pretty is excited too, I think.    

Here's to all TTC'ers having May or June  2009 babies!

~~~Cheers~~~

Wohooo! Finally a positive OPK! Best of luck this weekend ;-)

I am certainly no expert on temps.  But yours look pretty close to the same to me.  I would suggest to messege Tina111 about temps b/c she's a pro at them...  That is what I hear.  But I asked this question about thermometers last week myself and was told there isn't that much difference in them.

OMG GUESS WHAT!!  I just got a smiley on the clearblue easy!!!  YAY YAY YAY  after all my griping and frustration -being new to OPK's this past week and not knowing about those lines... 

I am going to O over the weekend!!  How perfect is that!!!  And, we have a holiday weekend, so that means an extra day for BD!!!   

(Sorry, but I am a little excited here.  I work at a bank, and I just want to run out of my office run out to the lobby and yell "finally a positive pee stick!!"  Now, let's just hope for BFP on HPT in two weeks!!!)

Thanks for listening, so excited here...

Hey! are you sure on that? cz my temps are very different....do you think my BBT is not working? I wanted to buy a new BBT but, I could only find one of the same brand I have, and I want a different one. 

For example, here are my most recent temps

Day               BBT       REG
Wed              97.64     97.3
Thursday       97.71      97.3
Friday           97.73      97.5

To answer your question I don't think it makes that much difference whether you use a BBT or a regular digital...  They are pretty close to the same, except that the BBT measures it out two decimal places instead of 1.   

Good Luck

cure65roses · Answer

I am using a regular digital thermometer and BTW I am not good at charting temps so I can't tell much by that b/c mine are up and down all the time, but they do generally go up after ovulation. You answered my question about ovulation day, I guess people can ovulate later than the average day 14. I am going to keep testing a few more days to see what happens. At this point in my 28 day cycle, this being day 14, i think i may have o'd on day 9, but not exactly sure... As I said above, my line was dark on day 8, but not positive. Then I didn't test again till Monday and all week the line has been very light. Day9? That seems so early!!

Keyan · Answer

are you using a BBT? for this cycle I am using a regular thermomether, and there is a difference...I hope not, but if this cycle doesn't work, I will go back to using my BBT, I just wasn't sure if it was working properly or not.
