I love that gadget SO much! Good luck, only a few short days till you test! Very excited for you. Please update us :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/o-question#post-459797 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 08:56:25 +0000 mrs. bird 459797@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sea_bass: you have so much great info on the monitor! I didn't know it automatically gave two peaks followed by a high. They shouldn't make you waste sticks those days!! Then it would make sense that I Oed early, like Friday, I didn't test Thursday, but had a low on Wednesday. Thank you!!</p> <p>@sorrycharlie: I've peed on more than my fair share of tests in the past, but never with any hope. Since I've never had any indication of Oing but this one I got a peak, it feels so much more intense :D I foolishly hid my stash of cheapo tests before vacation because we had a few ppl coming over to watch our cat, but I don't remember where the cheapo ones are hidden! Otherwise I'm pretty sure I'd start POAS like, today haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/o-question#post-459713 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 07:00:30 +0000 sorrycharlie 459713@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. bird: I didn't use a monitor but just wanted to be bad and encourage you to test : P especially if its your first 2WW there's something about testing daily that's irresistible! Lol I did it with each cycle til I got my BFP on cycle 3! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/o-question#post-459703 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 05:22:29 +0000 sea_bass 459703@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. bird: Just an FYI on the CBEFM once you get "peak" the monitor will automatically follow it with another "peak" then a "high" irrespective of your pee sticks, to make sure you are BDing after the LH surge. </p> <p>Good luck! I hope you get great news Christmas day! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/o-question#post-459286 Thu, 20 Dec 2012 19:02:02 +0000 mrs. bird 459286@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thank you all for your input! I guess I'm gonna start Christmas eve &amp; just see what happens. I don't expect to see a BFP, so I don't think I'll be disappointed by starting early : ) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/o-question#post-459043 Thu, 20 Dec 2012 16:37:06 +0000 fussygal 459043@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree that you probably did on Friday. This is the first month I've used a digital OPK in addition to charting. I had a positive on Monday and negative Tuesday (didn't test Sunday - dang it!). I've been charting, too and FF hasn't given me my O day yet, but when I put in a dummy temp it shows that O would have been the day after my positive (Tuesday). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/o-question#post-458892 Thu, 20 Dec 2012 15:26:58 +0000 mlm2934 458892@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I get O pains when I ovulate, so that's when I start counting us days after the O pains. This last time was first using OPK. I had positives on Mon-Tues and got O pains around 1pm Tues. I would count second day of surge as O day </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/o-question#post-458855 Thu, 20 Dec 2012 15:09:43 +0000 JoJoGirl 458855@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Shutterbug: No that's probably reasonable. The month I used the monitor + OPKs + charting, I got crosshairs two days after my first "peak" reading. I still think I Od earlier, but it helped in the waiting process! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/o-question#post-458838 Thu, 20 Dec 2012 15:02:43 +0000 Shutterbug 458838@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually use OPKs and chart. I generally get two days of "positives" and then the next day a negative. Then my temp jumps on the morning after that negative, so FF tells me I O'ed on the day of the negative. In your case, I'd guess you O'ed later in the day on Sunday, meaning 10dpo would be next Wednesday. Boxing Day/Kwanzaa BFP? ;)</p> <p>ETA: I have no idea how the CBEFM works, so my advice may be wrong! But I'd rather think I O'ed later so that I wasn't disappointed with a BFN for no reason. Good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/o-question#post-458820 Thu, 20 Dec 2012 14:58:29 +0000 JoJoGirl 458820@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd say you Od Friday if the monitor was peak that day and the OPK was negative that night! So Saturday would be 1dpo. But it's all a guess anyway so start testing at 10dpo but don't get super bummed if it's negative :)</p> <p>ETA: and i basically just repeated what @mrs someone said. haha. Well, I agree! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/o-question#post-458817 Thu, 20 Dec 2012 14:56:35 +0000 mrs. bird 458817@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs.Someone: I got a peak Friday &amp; Saturday and a high Sunday, Monday I got a low. I know 10dpo is early &amp; not to get bummed, but I just want a start day for testing :D </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/o-question#post-458798 Thu, 20 Dec 2012 14:48:59 +0000 Mrs.Someone 458798@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My best guess is that you probably O'd sometime before that OPK on Friday. So I'd count Saturday as 1dpo. Did the monitor say low on Sunday?</p> <p>Also, I wouldn't recommend testing at 10dpo, its way too soon, and it would be hard to not be disappointed if its negative. Try to wait until at least 12dpo if you can! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/o-question#post-458707 Thu, 20 Dec 2012 14:18:05 +0000 mrs. bird 458707@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>this is the first time i'm in a TWW where i think i may have actually Oed, so i'm feeling impatient. i'm wondering how to count days past O. i know if you're charting you can see if &amp; when you actually Oed, but if you are using OPKs or a monitor, those show you when you're about to O, right? so how do you count how many days past O you are? i had a peak on my monitor on friday &amp; saturday mornings, but a negative digital OPK friday night. not sure what that all means! but what day do you think i count as O day? they say 10DPO is when you could start testing, so ten days after first peak or no because the peak is telling you you're gearing up to O but not O day? </p>
