I need your experience here ladies

I am going to lay it all out here. Can y'all please give me your opinions based on your experience? I could spend all day research online, or I could just hit you all up for some assistance. And feel free to tell me that I have lost my ***-ing mind if you would like. I won't take offense.

CD12: O'd (tender BBs, twinges of crampy like pain on left side of abdomen, +OPK, BD of course)
CD13/1 DPO: tender BBs, same twinges, +OPK, no BD due to OBGYN appt. next day)
CD14/2 DPO: tender BBs, twinges, +OPK, BD)
CD15/3 DPO: tender BBs
CD 16/4 DPO: tender BBs (will it ever stop?), twinges (no BDing due to DH preparing for Male Fertility test)
brownish/reddish tinged CM around cervix only. dip in temps
CD 17/5 DPO: tender BBs (negative HPT....too early I know but I couldn't help it!)
CD 18/6 DPO: tender BBs, negative HPT...yes still too early...I know. increase in temps and more brownish CM around cervix only.

Does this sound like some serious wishful thinking here. I haven't ever been pregnant, nor have I ever paid this much attention to what is going on with my body during cycles.
HELP!

OK, do you chart? three days of positive OPK's means you could have ovulated as late as cd 15 or 16. But at least you are covered with good bding. Still to early really to tell anything else. I would wait a while till you test again.

Oh and yes you are out of your ##### mind. we all are. I tested at 8dpo after an argument with my husband just because, LOL.

Well, I think that on your first and second +OPK your body was seriously gearing up for O but didn't and then the third positive you may have finally O'd and that's why you are getting the brownish CM and you don't count DPO on the day of your OPK. When you get a positive OPK that means your body may ovulate within 12-36 hours so that would actually make you around 3-4DPO. You can't really know for sure though unless you chart your temps and since you said you had an increase in temps I am assuming you do. Do you have a link to your chart?

You are so good! I completely missed it where she said she had an increase in temps. Ok dip in temps on cd 16, followed by a rise in temps, most likely I would say you ovulated then cd 16. Would have to see a chart to know for sure though.

I agree with the other girls, though your chart would make it clearer, I wouldn't think you actually Oed until CD16. I would wait at least until CD26 (possibly 10 DPO) or better yet CD28 (12DPO) to test again.

Oh and the sore BBs thing. Some cycles I would get that a few days before I Oed and it would last until AF was almost gone. Other cycles there would be a week break and soreness would come back with AF. And still others I wasn't sore with either O or AF.
