Can a common cold (nasty but without a fever) interfere with ovulation?
Today is my supposed day of ovulation: first negative day after a positive ovulation predictor test and second peak day on the fertility monitor. The cold is pretty nasty but I don't have a fever. Just congestion, achy sinuses/teeth, itchy palate and a headache. Could this cold keep me from ovulating or delay ovulation? Or does my snotty head not interfere with my lil egg?

It Can. I got the H1N1 on CD 16 and it delayed Ovulation until CD 26 (I am usually CD 19.

It probably won't (usually serious illness is more likely to cause a delay in O) but it is possible it could. If your body is very run down, it may decide to devote all it's energies to healing and will forget about ovulation as it's not as 'important' as getting better so will either forgo O altogether or hold off until you are feeling better.
