I'm five weeks postpartum tomorrow -- looks like we're going to be BDing soon! I'd say I'm probably within a day or two of a positive OPK Since this one is so pretty I'll probably do two a day, starting today, just to make sure I don't miss my positive Eep! Here we go!!! (Fingers crossed that I actually GET that positive and it's not just a fluke!)

Will get to BDing first thing in the morning I was a nerd and gave in to my husband wanting a "favor" this morning. Meh. Now I wish I hadn't, 'cause as soon as I saw that beautiful almost-pos I totally would have ravaged him!

Well my OPK was lighter today than it was yesterday. Yesterday's two (one at noon, one at four) could have been pos, the line was dark but super super thin, or it could have just been my system acting funny. I've been temping sporadically and got a substantial temp drop this morning when I woke up. Will keep temping the next few mornings to see what happens. DH and I BD'd last night, rrrrow! (Around 2am, so technically it was this morning, but I'm calling it last night.) It was hard getting things started since it was our first time, it hurt a lot, but we both... Achieved the goal I hope to BD again tonight just in case, and a temp jump in the morning would be fantastic.

I bought CBE digi OPKs to use in conjunction with the ICs. The CBEs these past 2 days have been neg. (I figured since they're more expensive I'd just use them when my ICs started getting dark.) So who knows what's going on. But we're back on the BD train at least! And I plan to keep using the ICs and charting just see what happens. No idea what's going on in there, just trying to figure it all out
