CD13..anyone else?
by KellyA74, Feb 22, 2008 04:38PM
OK...so it's CD13 for me....I have been using OPT's for the last 2 months (since my M/C & D&C) and NEVER got a true positive......Yesterday the line was sort of dark, this morning a little darker, and this evening WAY dark....So I'm going to ovulate soon! I'm such a dork but I feel as excited about this as I would be if I were preggo (not really, but you know what I mean if you've had a M/C)...I'm just SO happy that I'm actually ovulating and detected it this time around! Too bad I work all weekend (12 hour night shift) and BD'ing will be limited...Any idea on what day would be the best if I have to pick 1? We did last night just in case.....I think that the positive OPT means I'll ovulat ein the next 24-36 hours? SO when is the best time to BD? Thanks! I feel like I should know this but just want backup to confirm! LOL

hi, my tests say you will ovulate in the next 12 to 36 hours so i think anytime around then would be fine. Sperm can live fora while so once should be fine. I wouldn't do it too many times as the sperm count can go down if you don't wait at least 24 hours between times. I would also bd 2 says later just to make sure you didn't ovulate on the 36 hour end rather than the 12. Good luck

I don't ovulate until really late in my cycle (day 25 of 25 day cycle) so not everyone will ovulate on the same time. Try not to use the test everyday as you will use them up to quick. Good luck

LACh1 is right....you'll rip thru those things like mad!, if you use www.babymed.com (Fertility Calander), it will tell you when to start testing.....If you have a normal 28 day cycle I think that it told me to start testing on Thurs.......
