I'm after some advice.
I have a one year old and we are trying to conceive again. I got my period back in December, so it's been three months now. My period is more or less regular (+1 or 2 days every month), and I think I am ovulating. I get the discharge and I am more interested in sex during those days.
However, I am not getting positives on the OPKs. At the beginning I was using Clearblue but I switched to a cheaper brand as it was getting expensive. With Clearblue I was testing with the first urine of the morning and understood that that might not have been the best time, so I switched to daytime. I try to not drink for a couple of hours before testing, and try to get a decently dark urine, but nothing.
Last month I think I might have succeeded in having sex during the right time, because after a week or so I started feeling nauseous, dizzy, and so forth, but in the end it did not work and got my period.
So now my question is, why do I not get a positive OPK? I did get checked internally a few months ago because I had fibroids during the first pregnancy, and the gynecologist told me that all was well, so I do not think there should be any physical problem. I use the Sperm meets egg method, but not getting a positive OPK is making me wonder whether I should be doing something else?
Taking my temperature each morning is too much work at the moment, so I would like to avoid that really.
Has this happened to you?
Thank you!
