What's a girl gotta do to get a + OPK?!!

OPK - What more do you want from me? J  I feel like my body?s giving me all the right signs that I?m getting ready to O (or did O), except you won?t give me a positive.  Why are you holding out on me?

 

Ladies, I only have one OPK left (out of 15 this cycle).  I tested today around 1 pm and still got a negative.  Should I test again this afternoon/evening with my last OPK?

    I would save the test for tomorrow or Sunday.  I'd act like you got a + and have sex everyday until you see the temp shift.  GL!  I know it can be so frustrating sometimes!

    Yeah, that's what I was thinking.  Thanks for confirming it.

    If DH will cooperate to do the BD, then this will be day 3 in a row.  That?s a lot for us. J  (B/c of our opposite schedules).

     

    ::keeping fingers crossed that DH is not ?tired? or ?busy? when I get home::

    When in doubt, have sex.  If your temp goes up, great.  If not, either get more OPK's, or keep an eye on cm.  

    If I "pretend" my hpt is positive, will I get pg??  Wink

    When in doubt, have sex...I love that!! I too am in the same boat....waiting for my positive. we are debating on saving up and not having too much sex till we get the + (just to try something different this month) but then I am worrying if we arent having any. So I think I am going with that motto!!! :-) Good luck to everyone!!!!

    I don't know what your definition of "saving up" is, but DH needs to have sex to replenish his sperm.  So you don't have to do it everyday, but you should try for every 5 days at least to keep the swimmers fresh.  GL
