TTC after 35

Where is my +opk?

DH has been here all weekend...I've been testing 3x/day...no +opk yet and he leaves tomorrow mid-day (it's now midnight on Sunday).  Great.  So no IUI for us unless I get a +opk tomorrow and then go in Tuesday morning on my own and use one of the 2 frozen samples we still have.  Which I might do; I guess it would be worth it since it looks like I'm O'ing late.  We BD Friday and Saturday, are skipping tonight, and will go for it tomorrow before he leaves.  But this is really annoying--and I *can't* have missed my surge, I've been testing since Friday morning, which was CD 11.  But now I'm paranoid!

    That stinks.  Are you having any other signs of ovulation?  I've never gotten a +, and it drives me nuts.

  • gad ... i think OPKs are just money makers ... i rarely get positive results.

    this past cycle, even tho i wasn't on meds, i went to the RE several mornings to monitor the follie ... because i just don't trust those OPKs.

    anyway, glad you had some sexy time with dh ... remember that sperm can live for up to 72 hours in the vjj.   

  • I never get + OPK either!

    so annoying, I dont know if all are faulty or what!

  • My problem is that I have *always* gotten one.  I think that what I thought was CD 1 was not CD 1 according to my body.  Which would make today CD 13, so I am guessing I will get a +opk tonight, which is exactly what happened last month.  I'll be testing shortly.

    In six months I have only had one positive OPK.  I bought the smiley face ones and that little O gets really depressing.
