... (at heart at least)..and I need to update my sig apparently as well.View Thread
. I used opk's for 5.5 months before getting pregnant with my son. I bought the cheapies and I tested twice a day. My friend tracie is using the first response digital opks but I don't overly recommend those digi's because as soon as you get your first positive it shuts off and you can no longer use it. I have read good things about the clear blue digi's though. For me due to some issues with the bc I was on I had the implanon removed a week ago on tuesday. Because I have PCOS my cycles are very odd. Because I am sensitive to hormones the decision was made to do NFP. When i was ttc I was very thorough in tracking my cycles and I will pretty much do the exact same thing. My provider thinks this would be best for my body esp when I am looking at ttc within 6-12 months.With that said I will be starting opks again as soon as AF arrives (whenever that may be....I am on CD159...haven't had a cycle since october 14th). Generally with OPK's they tell you to stop testing as soon as you get your first positive and that you will ovulate 24-48 hours (some say up to 72 hours and some say within 24 hours, just depends on what the box says on that part). The one you got does it do the smiley faces or tell you a number? have you ever heard of the fertility friend site? This is a good site to log things and had good information as well. I did the free stuff till the 4th month when I bought it on a special on FB for $16 for the year where I could get more information and tracking tools but the basic works just as well. My OB also reccommended BD'ing every other day or at minimum every three days regardless of the cycle day. I wish you the best of luck.View Thread
I am sorry. I never got calls like that, I am glad. I had to call and set up if I wanted it. HugsView Thread
