Do you think we missed our opportunity??

Well FF has returned my crosshairs again (5days after old set). According to the chart we BD'd 3 days before, then 1 day after (day of +opk). Yesterday I had cramps (O like) and hubby worked til midnight (so no bding yesterday), I also have cramps this morning.

Well anyway....do you think our timing was ok or do you think with missed our opportunity this cycle? I just pray the next cycle wont be like this one!! (the last 2 were 42 days)

I'm surprised it's not giving you dotted CHs because of the EWCM after O. Also, giving you CHs the day before you start getting + OPKs is kind of weird.
How come the last few temps are open dots?
I might wait a few days and see where your temps go (and to be safe I'd be BDing).

I agree, BD! It would be pretty abnormal to O before you get positive OPKs! I think your temps may be off.

That's what I thought about the opks but 3 days in I am still getting positives....(I didn't test before that)....but I am also getting lots of cramping and knee aches (my usual thing).
Open circles are 5a (work days) and closed are 7 am. FF seemed to think that ok. (I know that later waking means slightly higher temps-so the last 3 could potentially be higher) But both times are after at least 3h solid sleep.

No they've been tossed they were quite clearly positive though. I said I hadn't tested before but earlier in my cycle I had. So I have seen what negative looks like. On a couple the test was nearly twice as dark as the control.

Well, you can ovulate 12-36 hours after your first positive OPK... So, could your first high temp be wrong? Like, were you slow waking up, allowing your temperature to rise before taking your temp??? Getting an incorrect high temp is easier than getting an incorrect low one...

No, That was a work day and I wake up even before my alarm goes off.

Oh....thanks BTW for all the input

It was only because I had a dip the day before and then the rise that out of curiousity I opk tested (not realizing that it likely shouldn't be positive after the rise)

Hmmm, so, it's possible you might have had a positive OPK before the first one you charted?

And, you're welcome. I know how frustrating this stuff gets!

Smile. Well, whether you O'd on the day it says or the day after. You did BD right in there. So, you are definitely in the running!!!

My only bd this cycle was the day after O.
