So you know how you can wish away/stress your period into coming later?

Can you do that with ovulation too? Like cause it to come later than normal? Just curious....
It has not happened to me but I am hoping I dont drive myself crazy with this aspect too now that I just bought the OPKs!

Actually, I think they reason stress makes your period to be late is because stress causes ovulation to happen later.

I found this info from the American Pregnancy Association:

Key Facts of Ovulation:

* An egg lives 12-24 hours after leaving the ovary
* Normally only one egg is released each time of ovulation
* Ovulation can be affected by stress, illness or disruption of normal routines
* Some women may experience some light blood spotting during ovulation
* Implantation of a fertilized egg normally takes place 6-12 days after ovulation
* Each woman is born with millions of immature eggs that are awaiting ovulation to begin
* A menstrual period can occur even if ovulation has not occurred
* Ovulation can occur even if a menstrual period has not occurred
* Some women can feel a bit of pain or aching near the ovaries during ovulation called mittelschmerz, which means "middle pain" in German
* If an egg is not fertilized, it disintegrates and is absorbed into the uterine lining
