Trying to Get Pregnant

Quick Charting Question

Because I'm too impatient to wait for tomorrow's WTO thread...Are there any rules about how to chart a positive OPK that occurs in the late evening (i.e. today vs tomorrow)? I searched and didn't see anything on that particular topic.

  • Did you also test this AM so you're wondering if you should replace an earlier data value?

    I don't know the answer, just trying to info gather for the pros!

  • I've tested about 7 times today. Lol. All were not quite positive until just now.

  • I always get my positives in the evening since that's the most common time to get it. I record it on the day I get it. I think as long as you are consistent from month to month that is all that matters. And lots of HIO! ;)

    Ditto
  • If I get a negative OPK in the morning in a positive in the evening, I mark a special symptoms box on fertility friend. You have to create it yourself.
    My TTC History:
    2009: missed miscarriage #1 at 9 weeks (trisomy 16)
    2010: Infertility
    2011: Diagnosis and treatment (low sperm count, anastrozole for DH, clomid for me + IUI)
    2012: Baby #1
    2014: Baby #2
    October 2015: missed miscarriage #2 at 11 weeks (trisomy 22)
    March 2016 BFP#5, due November 2016.

  • See, I am the opposite. I usually get them in the morning. I'll record it for today. Gracias!

  • I'd record it for today.  Honestly I'm not sure it matters.  If you end up ovulating from his LH surge (since they don't always lead to ovulation) then it would typically happen in the next 24-72 hours, so it's not like FF necessarily thinks you ovulated on the exact day of the positive OPK.  HIO until you confirm O via temping!
  • I always record the day of. I'd rather have an extra day marked then forget that I had it there. As was said above, consistency is key.
