opinions? Wanting to conceive

[Bubbles57912]

Hey I’m amber I’m new and I’m wanting to see if u can help me Okay so I’m new to ttc so I started temping and using the opks so here is goes
Temps
tuesday- 96.7
wednesday-96.6
today 97.5

opks-
Wednesday around 4am it was close to positive, then 3pm it was positive and then again 1230 am it was positive
Around
today around 330 it was negative

we dtd around 3 am Wednesday and the days prior to that was Thursday Friday Saturday (which I know probably means nothing because it is kinda far away from today) we also dtd last night but he didn’t ejaculate.

Ive been taking evening primrose oil, maca, vitamin C, geritol, zinc, omega 3, and co-qd I think it is, I stopped the epo and maca when I got my positive opk.

So so what do you think my chances of conceiving are based on this? and did I already ovulate based on my temp rise and negative opk

Thank you for reading this and giving me your opinion as I’m very confused and feel like I messed up this cycle

Temps I don't know much about but if the OPK's were correct but I think you have a chance. Hopefully someone here may have a better idea. Best of luck to you!

Your temps can’t confirm you have ovulated until you have 3 temps rise in a row. If they are matching up to the opks then you obviously have as much chance as any of us ladies do if you have been DTD around ovulation time

Hi @Bubbles57912 I can’t help with the temps but you might want to check if the evening primrose oil is ok when trying for a baby. I used to take it religiously for pmt but a herbalist told me to stop when TTC . I can’t remember why but according to google it’s ok up to ovulation.

Good luck x

I think your odds of conceiving each cycle are somewhere between 10% and 25% depending on age. They say that many couples in their 20s and early 30s are pregnant in 6 months of proper trying and of those that aren't many more are pregnant within the year. You seem to have done all the right things to give yourself the best chance. Good luck!

A neg opk after a pos one does not mean you have ovulated. You can ovulate between 12 and 48 hrs after a pos opk. For older women it can be sooner. The temp jump would suggest you've ovulated but you need a couple of days of consistently high temps to confirm and it's hard to tell with just 3 temps. Ideally you want to dtd leading up to a pos opk and a couple of days after. You can dtd every other day and then every day after a pos opk if you want. Some men get a bit depeleted if you dtd every day for ages! Sperm tend to live for 2-3 days after sex (the normal 5 day stats is more if you are trying to avoid pregnancy as it's not the average) so you have a good chance I'd say. Even with everything perfect the average length of time to conceive is 6 months.
