3rd x's a charm......right??? We will be AI'ing last week of March!
Quick question - so we decided to actually do 2 ICI vials instead of just 1 this time around, and being a bit older (38) I should ovulate a bit closer to my first smiley, right? So we were thinking of doing the first ICI maybe like 6-8 hours after OPK, and the second ICI 24-30 hours after? Thoughts??

As for O timing, I just wanted to say that I was a little worried that I'd O close to opk too (I'm 35). But, when I did temps, I wasn't seeing a shift until the 3rd day after +opk. So, I'm guessing I O'd around 48 hours after +. I know everyone is different, and I haven't been temping consistently since then, but it's usually a couple of days before my temp goes up. If you've got 2 vials, then you're able to cover a pretty good window...and your timing seems to cover you well. Good luck again and sticky baby dust!!
As it turns out, I got my first positive LH surge on Sunday @ 4:30 p.m. and didn't ovulate until Thursday. That's quite a stretch of time! Almost three days later, my cervix was still half-open---that's when I did my final ICI.
Everyone's body is different. Honestly, had I not bought a speculum and started looking at my cervix regularly, I would have most certainly inseminated too early.
Good luck to you!
This timing thing is just a pain in the patoot!!
