Hi everyone!
Quick question, ive been taking ovulation tests. Period started Oct 24th, ended 5 days later. Took opt 2 days ago, both days faint pink lines, but today it is alot darker, however a TAD bit lighter than the C line. Now ive read that this happens and possibly im ovulatiing and if i dont have sex or wait, it can be pink tommorow, every other day it was really light, now its pretty much the same color maybe a tad lighter. The only reason i believe i may be ovulating is because i have the addominal and back cramping, I usually feel like i have period symptoms during ovulation...So is it a safe bet to have sex every day for a few days? Or should i wait until tommorow? My periods are irregular and i never really kept track of the length of my cycle....thanks SO much for any advice!! xoxo

i am having the same problem. for 2 days my lines have been getting darker, but still not the color of the control line. are your periods usually regular? i did a bit of research & i did read that ovulating can cause period like symptoms. i hope thats some help

My doctor informed us that by the time you detect your surge on an opk it is too late (most of the time). She advised to BD from cycle day 5 or 6 till cycle day 16-17. She also said that a man with normal sperm can BD every day without effecting their "fertility". I got pregnant on a cycle where the opks went haywire but we started BD on like day 6 through 12 and DH injured himself on day 13 so I thought the cycle was a bust but as you can see from my sig it worked. My dr explained that because we BD early the sperm were waiting for the egg as soon as it hit the falopian tube and she says that is the best bet! Good Luck to you both!

I suggest you bd! Usually on my opk, the line gets just about as dark as the control line, but rarely as dark or darker. I still o. They're different for everyone, so you should probably bd as you see the line getting darker and whenever you feel you might have o symptoms.
