Ladies, I just took my first OPK today after holding my pee for only 2 1/2 hours and it looks like it's trying to turn positive!!! I hope it doesn't go light again!!! I was going to take a picture, but I need to charge my camera first...Please send me O dust lol i'll post a picture as soon as my camera battery charges...This is helping my mood a lot.
as you can see I was getting almost no lines yesterday...Do you think it looks like it's getting ready to turn positive today?

I'm gonna say positive tomorrow, but I still think you should take another one today anyway and see what happens  Gah, who knew peeing on things could be SO ADDICTIVE.

we've been doing it every other night...We did it last night, so i'm thinking of skipping tonight, and then doing it tomorrow with hopefully a positive OPK? and then of course doing it again saturday...Just wondering everyone's thoughts on this? BTW I took another OPK and I could see a line instantly (with the IC's it usually takes a few minutes for the line to show, so i know if the line shows up right away that means O is coming)...I just don't want to do it too many nights in a row (I like at least 3 in a row when I get a positive or almost positive OPK).

thanks Ladies!!! I was really worried that I wasn't going to ovulate...makes me wonder since it's only a few days late...Either 1 it was because I had some sort of a flu bug the first few days of my cycle, 2 the B vitamins, or 3 it was the aspirin...I've also been drinking grapefruit juice (GAG) since yesterday when I was getting pretty much blank OPK's...I read online of someone that drank grapefruit juice and it brought on ovulation...Not sure if that's the reason...any way, i'm cramping really really bad tonight (is that normal?)...I've had ovulation pains before, but not cramps like this...I held my pee for almost 4 1/2 hours and took another OPK and i'd consider it just about positive!!!!...It's just slightly lighter than the control line, but I know with IC OPK's they don't always get darker...I'm already almost out of OPK's so I ordered some yesterday thinking i'd need more because it was going to be a long cycle lol

Your BD timing is perfect! Our bodies are pretty complex so any of the above could cause your ovulation to be delayed by a few days. I hope you catch that egg!!!
