Hi!  Just like the title says, TCOYF says I ovulated on CD 22, but I didn't get a positive OPK until CD 24.  CD 24 seems more likely, but someone told me that I could've O'ed on CD 25 or even CD 26! 
 

I should add that I'm breastfeeding so my cervical fluid doesn't seem the best and this is my first month TTC postpartum, so I may not be perfectly accurate of the feel of my new cervix. If ya know what I mean... winky.gif

 

Here are my charts!

 

Thanks so much, I look forward to hearing EVERYONE's opinion!

I don't think that CD 22 is terribly likely and it doesn't hurt to count days from a later O day when trying to figure out when to test.  I voted for CD 24 b/c most of your fertility signs line up on that day.  You have EW that turns to sticky the following day, you had a lower temp that spiked the next day, you had an open cervix that closed up some the next day, and it's 24 hours after your OPK+.

 

That being said, I don't put much stock in OPK's.  Some women find that they never turn positive, they are positive for days on end, or are positive at random times (including after confirmed O).  I put more stock in your CF, CP, and temp observations.  So I would go with CD 24, making you 5 DPO today!

Thanks Jaimee for summing up what my mind couldn't!  :-)  Your points make sense! 

I don't put tons of stock in OPKs either as I've had false positives before (LH surge and no ovulation). 

Very interesting to note: I've never had a LP that lasted beyond 4 days  (I've only ovulated a few times and would immediately get my period a couple days after O) except for when I was pregnant, so I hope a positive is around the corner!!! love.gif
