I'm still new to this, but I would think part of it depends on your CM. If you have fertile CM today, I would count today as your ovulation date. And I would say unless the mood strikes, you're fine with BD!

If you keep taking OPKs, I'd count your first negative test as O day. If the OPK is positive, you haven't yet O'd, but are likely to within a day or two.

You're probably OK with skipping BD, but in a week or so will you have wished you had gone for it one more time?

@MrsCastro: The positive OPK means you're having an LH surge and are on the verge of O'ing. A positive followed by a negative the next day means either you have just O'd, or the surge failed and you haven't. The only way O can be confirmed is by a temp shift. Watching CM helps too though! I count the day of the first negative OPK as 1dpo.

@MrsCastro: Sounds right to me!

I want to add that you can possibly ovulate the same day you get a positive OPK. It could be that by the time you took your OPK, you were at the end of the surge and ovulated later that evening. Based on my temps and OPK my first go round, that is what happened to me!

I would have Monday be day of ovulation. If Sunday you got the first positive opk then according to what my fertility monitor used to say, the first day of surge was peak1 and ovulation occurred on peak 2. At most o would occur on Tuesday. I would BD EOD through Wednesday if you want to optimize all of your days.
