Maybe i'm thinking too much but i was just wondering if there is a better time to test for ov, as in first thing in the morning or in the afternoon? I have the ebay cheapies and it just says between something like 7am to 8pm...i tested this morning at about 8am and had a -ive result (day 11). Could something like ov change from a morning to an evening of one day??! (Maybe i should'ce paid more attn in science class at school!) :? :oops:
I'm new to all this so bare with me :D ...i think what made me curious is that i've read some places morning is better and then other places afternoon...HELP!
Thankyou lots xx :)
 
It is not a stupid Q at all :hug: :hug:

When I know I am on my high fertile days I do an OPK at 10am and 2pm. It can be no line at all at 10am and by 2pm it can be a near + so yes it can change quickly. When the lines start to get darker I do tend to test just before bed as well just incase :D
 
Thankyou so much for the info, so good to know :hug:

...as of today i'm taking a couple to work with me... :D
Am i right in thinking once you start to ov you get a couple of days 'window', is that right?! xx
 
The only thing you can't do is test with FMU because your body synthesizes LH at night.

They say that once you have a + OPK then you tend to ov 12-24 hrs later ( :think: ) It is helpful if you bd before ov aswell to have some sperm waiting for the egg, so you have about 4/5 days before and a day or 2 later.

If I am wrong :oops: then someone please correct me :D
 
Apparently, and don't ask me why, testing between 2pm and 2.30pm is the optimum time.

I think it is best to bd just before so you have some sperm ready and waiting for your egg!

Good luck! :hug:
