I just got off a 3 mth cycle BC pill after about 10 yrs and we are trying to conceive. I started taking my temp. w/ a basil therm. and using an ovulation predictor kit. My 2nd day using the ovulation test strips, I had a very clear line but it was a little lighter than the comparison one, so in following the directions, I assumed it wasn't time yet. Every day since then, I have had no real line at all. I also had some CM the next day but thought based on some descriptions, it was signifying ovulation in a few days. My temp never did a big dip to show ovulation, but did a small increase yesterday and today (from 97.7 to 98.2 and 98.3).

Do you think I ovulated when the predictor had a line that was just a bit lighter than the comparison one?

I didn't ovulate at all until after I had my first period 3 months later.

What day did you have the "almost" positive because it looks like you did have a temp spike on the CD16. That said, it might take you a month or two to regulate your body. Hopefully it doesn't take you this long, but after you use OPKs for a few months, you start to learn what the positives and negatives look like.

That was on Tuesday, the 15th I think.

If you temps stay up that is what I would assume.

Agreed, it looks like you ovulated on CD 16. When was your +OPK? You typically have to take all the signs together to get a feel for what's going on. I'm pretty sure in the next day or 2 you'll get the crosshairs to indicate ovulation.

No. No ovulation or period for 90 days. Then I had a period and fairly regular cycles after that.
