that's what I am doing now. I posted this on the TTC board but thought you ladies might have some insight as well.
Soo yesterday my OPK said I ovulated! YAY!!! I was on day 18 (which is still a little late but better than the 33 it was at!) so when I retook it this morning it said I was still ovulating. So now we just have to play the waiting game.....
I do have a question though.... How soon after fertilization can you tell in a blood test? I am asking this because on Thursday I have to go in and get my blood work to make sure that I did indeed ovulate and I was wondering if it would be too soon to confirm whether or not I am with a blood test?
That would put me doing it on day 4 after ovulation....
Re: waiting and waiting and waiting some more.....
My dr says a blood test should have enough HCG to be able to be positive by 7dpo or so.
good luck.

Stick, little one, stick! EDD October 15, 2012

So I called my doc yesterday. I was told that he wanted me to wait until 10 days after I got my first smiley face......
