Positive OPKs for three days in a row. When did I ovulate?

Anonymous
After the first positive, or the last positive?

No way to know. In fact, you may not have ovulated at this point. Temps are the only real way to tell without b/w and/or an u/s.

OP here- I did ovulate- I got a BFP! Trying to figure out how far along I am.

Well, congratulations. But really, it doesn't matter which day you ovulated, because prenancy isn't that precise. Just pick the middle day and go with that.

Thanks for the replies. But if someone does know whether a consecutive positive OPK over several days would indicate an earlier (after the first postitive) or a later ovulation (after the lats positive), please weigh in. For medical/timing reasons, it will really be helpful to know the more precise date. Thanks in advance.

Noone can possibly know this. There is absolutely NO reason why a day one way or the other can possibly make any difference, medically or not. Just enjoy, ok?

From fertilityfriend.com:

OPKs tell you that ovulation is likely imminent and you are most fertile. In most cases, ovulation soon follows after a positive OPK result. A positive OPK result, however, does not indicate ovulation with certainty, nor does it pinpoint your ovulation day to within a narrow timeframe. Only your temperature sign which reflects a rise of progesterone after ovulation, will confirm and pinpoint ovulation for you.

A day or two on one side or the other shouldn't matter at this point. Wait for u/s to see if timing syncs up.

My kit has always said that you'll ovulate 12 - 36 hours after the first test (depending on when exactly you test). However, then the egg can live for 24 hours....
