So we told ourselves that we were just going to try this cycle and have fun with it, that lasted all of 2 days. Prior to TTC I had purchased 10 HPT tests and 25 OPK's (pregnancy and ovulation tests) from early-pregnancy-test.com for like $20. We were not planning on using the OPK's this cycle as we were not going to be "trying", but when I thought my body was hinting at the big "O" (means ovulation when trying to conceive) my want to be in control of my body took over. I just had to pee on a stick (POAS) to see if I was actually Oing. Well that first test was a definite negative, and here starts my love of POAS. My other half just laughs at me, but PEEING ON THINGS IS REALLY EXCITING!!! I loved being able to take a peep inside my body and know whats going on. After about 6 negatives and CD 21 passing, I was beginning to think that I either didn't O, or missed it. so boy was I shocked when on CD 22 a line appeared. Not a positive but the closet thing I had to one. The next day it got darker and darker, and trying to catch that egg began.
It goes from left to right far left being CD 16 to far right being CD25. The dark line on CD24 is the positive LH surge.
I am so happy that I decided to use OPK's, I definitely would not of thought that I'd O on CD 24 and would of been anxiously awaiting AF shortly. I guess the mirena is still messing with my cycles. Instead I am now very aware that we have 2 weeks now to see if we made a little one. TWO WHOLE WEEKS, YIKES!
