Hey! I was just reading a post about choosing the sex of your baby and I saw where you said you had sex on Monday, and ovulated on Thursday.....Did you ovulate the Thurs. BEFORE Monday or the Thursday AFTER sex on Monday?  I'm assuming you ovulated on Monday and then had sex on Thursday and got pregnant.

The reason I am asking is because we had sex at 1 am this past Sunday night...I ovulated on Tues. or Wed. (yesterday) the pee stick said I ovulated on Tues. night at 7), but I had such bad cramping for about two hours yesterday morning.  So I'm not real sure whether it was Tues. or Wed. ANYWAY, we had sex last night (24 hrs. after I did the ovulation predictor test.)  What do you think the chances are of conceiving?  I'm hoping either the Sunday sex before ovulation did the trick and if not, then hopefully, it wasn't too late when we had sex last night.  Have I totally confused the hell out of you?  Let me know what you think.  Thanks! : )

I'm sorry, I meant to say that I assume you had sex Monday and then ovulated Thurs. and got pregnant....right?

Yes thats right, I had sex on Monday night then ovulated that following Thursday morning,3 days later. Sounds like you ovulated when you had the bad cramping. Thats how I could pinpoint exactly when I o'ed. I was also keeping track with the ovulation monitor. But that only tells you when you are about to ovulate, not when you actually do , just like the ovulation kits. I would bet you o'ed when you were cramping. You have a really good shot at it sticking.....Good luck.Just wait totest 2 weeks from that dayyou felt the cramping. You were trying werent you?

Oh yes, we are trying...I had a miscarriage in April and a d&c...Hopefully the Sunday night sex before the Wednesday morning ovulation did it, and if not Sunday, then the Wednesday night sex after ovulating earlier that morning.   Thanks for your advice...Keep me posted on your pregnancy. :)

Keep us all posted on your status too....its always fun to hear someone else get pregnant....I am fine. MS subsiding a little bit, well some days. But fatigue is here to stay a while I think. Just a few more weeks till it goes away hopefully. Im a little over 8 wks now.
