If you DONT use an OPK...
how do you figure out how many DPOs you are? I am pretty sure I had some CM today and pre-d&c I O'd on CD20 (today is the 19th) so would it be safe to say that Friday could be 1 DPO?
Geez...I dont know. And for those of you who know me know I absolutely CANT STAND not knowing 
I should have bought the stupid test on CD 15 when I first posted

Re: If you DONT use an OPK...
I usually would say 2 days after you saw CM. So if you saw EWCM today then mostly like you would ovulated 12-24 hrs after (SO wed) then i would think Thursday would be 1 DPO.
You could count Friday is you want to give yourself up to 36 hours after u saw CM.
I think you were better off not buy the tests!!! I'm proud of you. hehe
It will help to relieve some stress without using the OPK.
Goodluck Lisa!!!! Are you following the Deanna's Plan?

Re: If you DONT use an OPK...
Why is DPO important? I know it's important so you know when to test...but I mean can't you kind of tell? I think you will drive yourself crazying wondering.

I guess its not really important; I was thinking the same thing after I posted this. I know that by 10/4, if my cycles went back to normal, then I should be getting AF. Testing anytime after that should be fair game.

That's what I was figuring...just kind of know when AF is supposed to arrive and go from there....thats what I plan on doing
I'm doing the same thing Deannas plan w/out OPKs...but I am on CD10 today so we are coming up on the big BD days! my monthly cycles said I O next Tuesday...so I will just be following my CM! I just can't believe I'm back in the game and doing this again! lol

I feel the same way. Even though I have been talking about trying again since the d&c, now that we actually are and Im counting CDs and tracking CM, I actually feel anxious. I think I will be a nervous wreck the first time I take a HPT again. I think thats why I didnt buy the OPK this month; Im intimidated to start POAS again.

Re: If you DONT use an OPK...
I'm not sure if I'm going to use the OPK, since I got pregnant twice without them, and now that I've been using them I'm not lol.
Plus they drove me crazy! I think it may be better to not use OPKs and to just go by when AF is late. Those BFNs are KILLER, and I've also wasted so much money on them. This is the plan for this month so far, but I'll let ya know if I broke down and buy them a week from now lol.
Hope this is your month!!
