I have a question, we are not really trying but I'd be thrilled if we were to get pregnant. My youngest is a year in 2 weeks...anyways I am new to OPKs. Kinda just trying to figure out my cycle if I even have one. I have had one post-pregnancy cycle and the last few months nothing. So we just got back from vacation and I told my husband I wasn't ovulating since my tests were all negative so we didn't bother going to the store for a condom...and my test this morning is a positive OPK! Just wondering what my chances would be if we only did it last night? I am a total noob at this sorry if this is a dumb question!
Re: Timing sex and OPK
I can be hard to tell. OPK's only tell you that your body is gearing up for ovulation, not that you are for sure about to ovulate. It's not uncommon to get a positive OPK but then not ovulate. Some women on here have even gotten multiple positive OPK's in the same month.
Your best bet is to keep having sex EOD or ED if you can handle it for a while.
EOD= Every other day ED=every day.
I didn't know that about OPK's (or what EOD or ED meant lmao) either until I joined here
GL to you too!
Also, I keep this open half the time when I'm on here because I still don't know most of the acronyms! lol https://community.thebump.com/cs/ks/blogs/nest_baby_editors/pages/the-bump-community-glossary.aspx
isn't it crazy that it's only 20%?
It's depressing!
