    If there are no sperm issues I don't see why everyday would be problem.  We try to do one day AM and the next day PM during the fertile window and continue about 2 days after getting a positive OPK.  Congrats on the positive!

    I would, but that is just because I am paranoid like that and worried about missing the opportunity.

    I'm not sure about that some one else might know better.  I was using a Wondfo if that helps.  I just googled images of OPK results a while back and a lot of pictures showed a fade in and then a fade out.  I never faded in.  Just faint lines and then BOOM dark and a fading line the next day.

    With my dd, MH was a champ and we BD'd every day from day my period ended until 3 days post ovulation. Didn't matter if we were sick, tired, whatever. Fun, right? :-p

    Good luck this month! Those look positive to me too.

    Positively! We BD the day I get the first positive and the next two days as well. The OPK is supposed to detect that you will ovulate 12-24 hours later, so I figure we're covered best that way. FX!!!

    make sure you temp and then you'll know when you can hold the horses/rein 'em back in/relax...
    TTC#1 since Aug 2013, I'm 37, DH 41.  
    Maya Arvigo Abdominal massage (daily self care), plus TTC meditations.
    I'm very sensitive to diet (gluten, avoid processed foods) and environment. Have a history of inflammation and tendinitis before going off gluten in 2009.  
    July 2014 - RE Visit #1: Eggs look good, Endometrioma on R ovary, HSG showed blocked R tube close to ovary. DH SA normal 
    DX: Endometriosis probably the IF cause and gunking up tubes.  Since egg reserve is high, RE says I can wait a couple months and then get laproscopic surgery to remove endo & clear tube.  If that doesn't help then move to IVF. 
    Dec 2014 - Saw new RE - does not recommend surgery on tube as it isn't likely to help.  Doubts I have endometriosis.  My endometrioma shrunk to neglible size (yay!) 
    Seriously considering IVF in March/April

    I didn't temp this cycle -- we wanted to be less stressed out about it so just did the ovulation sticks.
