Ditto what you said about Fertility Friend. I thought I knew 'enough' before joining up, but now I know a whole heap more!

I used to do the quizzes with DP too, for all round involvement!]]> Tue, 04 May 2010 19:02:15 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33199&PID=1016129&title=ovulation-question#1016129 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33199&PID=1014208&title=ovulation-question#1014208 Author: lisa85

I just signed up to Fertility friend last week it looks super involved which was putting me off but they have been sending me short lessons via email each day. I just sat down this morning and read the first 6 lessons in one go and was amazed at how easy the lessons make it seem. They give you a wealth of knowledge on your body and how and when ovulation occurs.

I totally recommend signing up to FF even if your not ready to chart reading the lessons is very eye opening and they are very short and simple. I haven't started charting yet am waiting for next AF.]]> Mon, 03 May 2010 10:38:01 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33199&PID=1014208&title=ovulation-question#1014208 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33199&PID=1013629&title=ovulation-question#1013629 Author: tarns

Yep...if your ticker is correct hen now would be a good time to get busy

I know charting looks complicated...it nearly put me off ...but actually apart from putting in your temperature, Fertility Friend does all the rest.

Its amazing how many of us don't know exactly when we ovulate.....or thought we did then find out later that we have been timing things all wrong.

Hmmm ok, so going by my ticker that could mean today could be a good day to BD??

I havent really had a normal cycle lately so i have no idea if im ovulating at all. I guess i might give charting a go next month if AF is normal.]]> Sun, 02 May 2010 17:17:24 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33199&PID=1013625&title=ovulation-question#1013625 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33199&PID=1013595&title=ovulation-question#1013595 Author: tarns

There isnt really a standard answer to your question.....I find it best to use OPK (ovulation prediction tests) they are like Preg tests but they test the levels of Luteinising Hormone in your urine. When the OPK goes positive then you will generally ovulate within 12-36 hours. The egg stays viable for about 24 hrs then if not fertilised you will get your AF in due course. Hope that helps a little.

A `normal' cycle is supposedly 28 days with ovulation occurring on Day 14 of your cycle but many many women do not have a cycle like this.

I wasn't sure if I was ovulating at all so I started charting (taking temp each morning). This is a bit of a pain, but a sure fire way to know exactly when (or if) you did ovulate that month.

BDing is best 5 days prior to ov, the day of ov and the day after as well.

Im kind of new to this, i have no idea how to chart etc.

Just wanting to know how long you normally ovulate & when is the best time to BD?

Any other info like that would be good ]]> Sun, 02 May 2010 16:11:59 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33199&PID=1013548&title=ovulation-question#1013548
