So...need some advice:  I'm on day 14 of an I don't know how long cycle as this is the first one since I got AF after my miscarriage.  My DH and I are trying this cycle and so far I have not gotten a + OPK test. Today was the first day that I got a line at all.  So here's the dilemma...should I go ahead and FWP tonight and continue for the next four days, betting that I'll ovulate during that time or should we skip tonight and start tomorrow?  I guess I'm just worried that something will happen and I'll ovulate without getting the +OPK test and we'll miss out this month.  I checked my CM earlier tonight and it was wet and shiny, and there was a little stretchy stuff but honestly it could have been his leftover fluid from the night before last... help! what to you think???

    You should FWP tonight!  Fertile CM can be distinguished from leftover semen by color and stretchiness---CM is clear and stretches, semen is more cloudy and does NOT stretch.  You're probably getting ready to O in the next few days, so it would definitely be a good idea to FWP now!

    Are you charting?

    No charting yet. This is the first month I have used OPKs and I think I might give it another month or two and then chart if we don't have any luck. Thanks!

    FWP early and often is my vote! Start tonight and continue for the next few days.
