So I had an ultrasound tuesday, CD 11. It showed an 11 size Follie, and a few smaller.

Yesterday I took an OPK and got what I THINK was a positive, but I may have been more dehydrated so it could have been more concentrated like FMU (though it wasn't) and maybe not entirely accurate because of that.

Today (CD 14) I had a repeat ultrasound. It showed a 16 size Follie, and an 11. So, they said to trigger tomorrow night. I had a negative OPK this afternoon.

But look at these! Isn't that confusing?!



I was also on 100mg of clomid this month.

So question: Should be worried that if it WAS a positive OPK that the trigger is too late to help?

I guess this is why they tell you not to mess with OPKS when on clomid!

I inverted it and it looks like CD 13, but I would just follow what the RE said to do and cross your fingers. I would post the inverted picture but I am having issues with uploading.

I say you got a positive on CD13 so you would o about cd15... But I would most definately listen to what your doctor said! Good Luck!

Its weird if I got a + opk on cd13 and a negative the next day, my OPK's stay positive for like a week normally. I'm not going to stress about it... Jus listen to my RE and do the trigger tonight. You guys rock, I have been going through all this in my head since CD 13, so the relief feeling of ITS OK is awesome. haha! TTC is too stressful.

oh but wait, look what I got today, another + OPK. (It is much darker now than in picture, but definately positive IRL)



Next month if we have to do this again, I'll skip the OPK's I think... what a pain!

I find the answer brand OPK's confuse me.

One month, I took a clearblue digital, clearblue stick lines an answer stick line and an ic stick line. They all said posiive except for the answer brand... It was the weirdest thing. Now I just use the digi's... No guesswork. Plus the smile face is so cute

I just did my trigger shot about 20 minutes ago, so one way or the other I'm going to ovulate. lol
