1/30 - CD 18 / O day?

🌜⭐| a m a n d a |⭐🌛 • 32-years-young / TTC #1 💍 6.26.07 - Until Forever 💋

So... I woke up today with my temp quite a bit higher than expected. I'm having a hard time believing I would ovulate that fast... though it's happened in the past, but not since I first stopped birth control. Yesterday morning my OPK was almost positive, so I knew I'd get a strong positive by the time I got home from work.

Last night I was having some pains on the left side. This morning I'm having the same pains on both sides. Nipples are starting to feel sore already-- that comes every month with O, but I don't know if it just happens around the time of O or after. I've only ever noticed it after.

I'm hoping it hasn't happened yet, as we haven't BD'd yet (I literally told him we need to get it in early today, before the egg drops 😂) but I know it's out of my hands, and whatever will be, will be. I have very little hope moving forward anyway, I feel like there's something standing in the way and until I figure out what that is, it's just not going to happen anyway. 🤷‍♀️

My gut feeling is that I haven't ovulated yet, but will very soon. But the signs are making me doubt myself. What do you ladies think?
