Gave blood today and fainted (my first time) while I was having a snack afterwards. It was weird because after the fact, I sat there for a while to see if I would be ok and I started feeling some pretty strong cramps (not time for AF). I went to the bathroom and just before I got back started feeling light headed again. I usually don't O until CD19, so I hope my O date doesn't get delayed because of this. I'm finally using OPK's for the first time this month.

This. I am not sure there is a correlation between the two?!?!

I think she's worried about her body being stressed from fainting and that delaying ovulation. OP, I wouldn't worry about it and I'd be more concerned with just getting your strength back after that.
I have to agree with PPs. I know that stress can somewhat delay ovulation, but one instance of giving blood....I don't know about that.
Try to just put it out of your mind.
I think she means delaying O from the stress on her body from fainting.
OP: you will probably be just fine, and i dont think it will effect O.
