Excited!


Hi ladies!

I'm getting excited - think I might be about to ovulate!

I've not had any EWCM yet, but my BBT has dropped and the OPK I took yesterday, whilst still being negative, has definitely got darker!

I've had some crazy cycles since coming off the pill - last month was 61 days and I didn't ovulate, so I started taking agnus castus this cycle and it looks like, fingers crossed, it could be working!

It's CD16 today, so that would be a more 'normal' time to ovulate.

I've attached a pic of my negative OPK from yesterday. Can someone have a peek at my chart please?

I'm kind of hoping ovulation doesn't happen until tomorrow night or Friday though, because hubby isn't home from his work trip until then.

How long does BBT normally stay down before O?

wooooo hoooooo MrsM im so excited for you hunny

your chart is looking good (apart fromm white circles which means you took temp at a diff time) I would say going by your opk that it will get dark tomoz am so you will ov anytime bettern 12-36 hours - perfect timing for hubby

get ready to pounce him!!!

Oh man, OPK is back to being lighter today! Guess I'm not ovulating then.....or maybe we missed it.

Will see what my BBT does tomorrow morning anyway!

when you got your "almost" OPK result, did you test again a few hours later - once you get a line like that you "could" ov within the next 12 hours

No I didn't, it was about 6 p.m. so didn't do another one that evening.

My BBT is still down this morning and I've just checked my CM - it's not EWCM yet as it's still white, but it's become a bit stretchy (normally it's like runny lotion).

How long does BBT drop for before O? I'd assumed it was only 1 day, but this has been a few days now. Maybe it's just because it's flipping freezing outside and my bedroom - and therefore me - has been colder?!

Hubby is home tonight, just hope he's not too tired after his 5 hour flight and drive home!!

drop in bbt does not always indicate you are going to o soon but if you have ewcm along with it, it is a good sign! You can see from my chart I have had a few drops but no O.

And also, not everyone DOES get a drop for ovulation Its just one of those things that can happen, but also cannot. Just like the drop before af. Lot of people get it...most of my cycles I didnt get it

I think you can only go off of the opks. Either you geared up to ovulate but then didnt, and youll see another surge start to build, OR, you caught the surge just starting/ending and didnt pick up another positive on that afterwards because of the not retesting.

I think best thing to do would be to see what they continue to do now x

Not so excited any more...... don't think it has happened! No EWCM yet and all OPK's have been fainter since. Bum.

I'm hoping this isn't going to be a repeat of last month - body geared up to O around the same time, nothing happened and then I went on to have a 61 day cycle!
