Pre-ovulation?

[LAMom]

Hi Maura and others:

I'm still opk'g.....no real change in the darkness of the line yet. It is still a pretty light line.

However, I'm on CD 19 and I'm feeling those familiar, old, odd signs. I'm feeling a little flushed/hot flashes (which is a new for me!) (wouldn't you think that would come WHILE I'm on the Clomid....not after?), and, I'm also feeling that low, heavy/bloated abdomen feeling.

Does anyone have a guess if the low crampy feeling is PRE-ovulation or OVULATION? I know, you'll probably say that this is one of those things that is different for everyone!?!

Well, as far as CM goes, it is increasing slowly....but nothing like it usually is near O-time. So, I have a feeling that I'm still a few days away yet.

Guesses? Anyone? Anyone?

Thanks!

LAMom

P.S.) Okay, okay I admit it.....I'm starting to get a little excited again......and, a little bit "obsessive" too!

Hi LAMom! My guess is that you're getting close to O and will O within the next 3 days... and so I would BMS every day at this point (you don't have any male factor do you?), leaving 24 hours in between sessions.

BTW, when did you start OPKing and have you been doing it every day at the same time since you started?

Good luck and keep us posted+++++++++++++

Thanks, Maura!

Nope, no male factor involved. I am thinking the same as you---sometime pretty soon now! Yea!

I started opk'ing Thurs Nov 3rd / (CD 14) / and I test every day at around 6:00 p.m. I think I read somewhere that it's best to test in the early afternoon, but you WOULD NOT believe the crazy schedule that I keep most days! That was the only time I could consistently get it done!

Thanks! I hope we're both right!

Sounds good, LAMom! Let us know if you see your ++OPK and make sure you keep BMSing!

Good luck+++++++++++++++
