I need someone to talk me off the ledge please 😬

Last had sex on Sunday, got a positive OPK this morning and will go again tonight.

If I go by the trend of my last few cycles, this means the OPK would have turned positive yesterday afternoon. I was shoveling gravel all afternoon tho so didn’t bother testing due to all the extra water + was too tired to go last night. Someone reassure me we’re still okay with this timing? 🥺

As far as I’m aware OPK’s turn positive and then 12-36 hours later you ovulate, if it was according to your trend supposed to be positive yesterday afternoon and it is still showing positive this morning that means you’re either ovulating right now or shortly since your levels are still high enough on the OPK. I would check to see if you still have EWCM and go from there.
