You would think after TTCing for years and going to an RE I would know the answer to this....

So I now have 29 day cycels. Some people say to call CD1 the day you see "flow" not just spotting, ok so I called CD1 the day I went to the bathroom at got a bunch of brown stuff in the toilet but wasn't actual consistent flow.... until the next day

Anyway - my real question is this....

I have a 29 day cycle, finally got an positive OPK on CD17..... is this bad? Is it too late?? I am not sure.... DH and I have been doing the deed everyother day since CD11, got the positive OPK last night (CD17) b'd last night, will tonight and tomorrow - any other suggestions?? DH has poor swimmers so that is why we usually do the everyother day thing....

YEAH Dawn!!!! Glad to see you got your positive. I have a 29-30 day cycles and I usually get a positive OPK around day 16 or 17. I actually talked to the GYN about this at my annual this past Monday and she said that is totally normal.

Good Luck and keep BD'ing!!!

Good luck!

The length of your cycle is not what you should worry about, but the length of the luteal phase is.  This is the time from ovulation until the day before your next cycle.  If it's shorter than 10 days, it's called a luteal phase defect and can make it harder to conceive.  I think doctors consider "ideal" to be between 12-16 days, but you SHOULD be ok with at least 10.

HTH!

Sounds like I should be ok because I think my LP will be around 12 days or so - keep your fingers crossed for me!
