For those of you who used OPK kits to get pregnant...

Did you calculate your own due date based on ovulation instead of last missed period? If so, how accurate was it?

My periods are super irregular. I got pregnant using OPKs back in August. According to my date of ovulation, my due date should be 4/28 (this Sunday).

At my 8-week appointment, my doctor used ultrasound measurements to give me a due date of 4/30. Pretty close! But then at my 12-week appointment, she changed it to 4/24. She said it was closer to my LMP due date anyway and baby was measuring slightly ahead for the original due date.

Now, 4/24 has come and gone and I’m not surprised, since I’m pretty sure my REAL due date is 4/28 anyway. What’s annoying is I may be pushed to get an induction early next week because the doctor thinks I’m more overdue than I am 😑

Anyone else use OPK data to get a different due date than your doctor? Which was more accurate??
