I put the question to DH but said I was okay with it either way. We will see what transpires! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-you-help-with-our-timing#post-1907796 Mon, 20 Oct 2014 13:24:37 +0000 PawPrints 1907796@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You probably should get it on tonight since all signs point to peak fertility. But if you're both completely exhausted I wouldn't beat yourself up over it if you skip it. You could definitely get knocked up from the number of fertile days you already hit. Good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-you-help-with-our-timing#post-1907722 Mon, 20 Oct 2014 12:50:35 +0000 Mrs.KMM 1907722@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A positive OPK typically indicates that you will be ovulating in the next 24-28 hours. So if the regular CB was positive yesterday but negative today, I'd wager that you are ovulating either today or maybe early tomorrow. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-you-help-with-our-timing#post-1907709 Mon, 20 Oct 2014 12:47:38 +0000 oliviaoblivia 1907709@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You know my philosophy.<br /> Bang it out! But honestly you're probably covered. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-you-help-with-our-timing#post-1907683 Mon, 20 Oct 2014 12:35:16 +0000 travelgirl1 1907683@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MaryM: When I was being monitored by the clinic (and the times I got pregnant), they had us BD the night before ovulation and the night of. That's why I'm thinking we should... But yeah, neither of us are into it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-you-help-with-our-timing#post-1907677 Mon, 20 Oct 2014 12:33:01 +0000 MaryM 1907677@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>OPKs indicate your LH hormone peak and the time leading up to O, but your LH usually drops before you actually O. So if you had positive OPKs up until today, you probably did O today.</p> <p>You can go for tonight too if you want, but you're probably covered if you aren't into it. You don't have to hit EVERY day to get pregnant. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-you-help-with-our-timing#post-1907675 Mon, 20 Oct 2014 12:31:31 +0000 travelgirl1 1907675@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LovelyPlum: That is actually a great idea! DH starts work late tomorrow so yes! I have never used OPKS and gotten pregnant. My pregnancies were achieved through monitoring with ultrasounds and blood tests so we were given a very clear two day window each time. This feels much harder!</p> <p>@BandDmommy: I think you are right. if in doubt, bang it out and all that :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-you-help-with-our-timing#post-1907672 Mon, 20 Oct 2014 12:27:50 +0000 BandDmommy 1907672@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would BD as much as you can. The cycle we got pregnant we BD every day. It doesn't hurt. :). We had been doing EOD and that didn't work for us. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-you-help-with-our-timing#post-1907670 Mon, 20 Oct 2014 12:26:44 +0000 LovelyPlum 1907670@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never used OPKs, just CM, so take this for what it's worth...but could you do tomorrow AM? If you do ovulate today, then you would be covered, right? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-you-help-with-our-timing#post-1907662 Mon, 20 Oct 2014 12:21:40 +0000 travelgirl1 1907662@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just looking for some advice on timing.</p> <p>CB Advanced OPK identified my four most fertile days as Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. I double checked yesterday with regular digitals and got a smiley face. Today it was negative so I thought we were good and done.</p> <p>But I woke up with more EWCM than I had yesterday and now I feel pinching around my left ovary.</p> <p>So even though the OPKS indicate today isn't a fertile day, I feel like maybe I ovulated today and we should BD tonight.</p> <p>This cycle has been tough for me emotionally though (didn't BD Thursday as I was too upset about the whole thing) and today DH is shattered and has a cold. We did BD Friday, Saturday and yesterday. So part of me thinks we're covered and the other part thinks we really should finish what we started. Urgh.</p> <p>Based on the OPKS and physical signs, do you think we need to include today.. </p>
