I've never understood the whole "cycle" thing lol and i have 4 kids.  The first time I used the OPK's I kept using em and never got a positive...i finally took a HPT and turns out I was pregnant...no wonder I didn't ovulate LOL.  I've been trying to use them this month as a means of natural family planning but either i'm not doing em right or im not ovulating or something.  it's been about 21 days since my LMP...I've been doing the OPK's every day starting at day 7 after...so far...no go....BUT a few days ago I had increased CM and cramping which is supposed to be a sign of ovulation....STILL no pos on the OPK's tho.  I did take an HPT a few days ago and it was neg. So I have NO idea.

The most obvious sign i have of ovulation is i start cramping but not as bad as AF cramps.  Apparently the day before ovulation is apparently better for conceiving as the sperm sit in wait on our bodies releasing the egg.  However i make sure we bed 2 days and the day before ovulation and at least 1 or 2 days after just to be on the safe side.

Try ovulation kits they are so easy to use and a lot of women rely on them as not everyone ovulates every 14days like myself, i ovulate every 19days on a 32 day cycle.

You only ovulate once a month this is why it makes things more difficult to conceive.  I wish you all the luck in the world and hope you get your BFP soon!!!
