Cheap home OPK sticks

Hi

Currently using flo app on my phone and dates when I should have ovulated have been and gone I've been using cheap home opk sticks and didn't get a second line of any kind at all during the flo predicted time. I've kept testing and the last couple of days I've been getting a faint second line which i think is getting darker. Does this mean anything at all? I've read that unless it's completely the same as the test line it means nothing

I'm confused, it's not that far from my period being due so does that mean i have not ovulated this month!?

Thanks

Yes according to my last period my due date will be 11th may. We just got a bit carried away whilst on holiday 😍🙈🤷🏼‍♀😱😂 and have been very lucky/unlucky depending on how you look at it 😂😂

We were trying and I really thought it would be at least Christmas, especially after my implant, not the first proper cycle of ttc. I'm so shocked tbh. I did the test at half 5 this morning, I was going to wait for him to wake up and couldn't wait and went straight in and shook him awake.
I know your previous comments said you was just trying to keep track of your cycle and wasn't going to try until December, so I know it's happened a lot sooner than you expected.
My due date is set at 8th of May from my last period But I think I ovulated sooner so the 12 week scan might change it xx

Omg! That's amazing news! Huge congratulations!!!!!!!!! You must be over the moon! I thought of you this morning as my AF due and now a little worried I might be pregnant too, after a holiday with 2 kids I'm suddenly thinking 3 isn't a great idea after all 😂😂😂

So happy for you xxx

@minnierose3 it was your post that made me think ovulated on CD9 or 10 was possible, everyone else is saying it's unlikely. But obviously it depends on cycle length and lost of other stuff. I've also been reading lots of contradicting stuff about if CD1 is the first proper heavy day, or it's the day or 2 before that where I'm a super light flow or spotting, which would mess up my tracking.

@ttcat32 it's exciting and nerve wracking. It would be so much better if it happened do one rather than later. I hate the worrying and the waiting.
Thank you 😁

ttcat32 · 17/08/2018 08:51

@MsHopey keeping everything 🤞 for you how exciting 😊

I don't trust the apps I have 2 and they both give me a different date. Have this week developed a hatred for the opks also as got 2 almost positive but no other symptoms of OV then back to nothing! Starting to think I may have a tww for OV also 😂 x

I ovulated much earlier than my app predicted so you never know! Good luck xx

OP posts:
MsHopey · 17/08/2018 06:17

@ttcat32 I'm going to say I am.
🤞🏻for everyone.
It's probably going to go faster than I expected because I've spent nearly the whole first week trying to be sure I'm in the tww 😂 but I think I am.
Period is due around the 29th, maybe a bit earlier. I think I ovulated sooner than all my apps were guessing, which is obviously why we all do the OPKS. I don't think I'm lucky enough to have caught it this month, but we've been DTD, so there's always a chance.

ttcat32 · 16/08/2018 21:58

@MsHopey so does that mean you are officially in the TWW? Keeping 🤞 for you x

MsHopey · 16/08/2018 14:43

Still nothing. Definitely think I ovulated on CD9 or CD10 from looking at my ovulation test on CD11. No lines at all and thinking it unlikely that I'm suddenly going to get another positive between now and next week xx

I know what you mean. Lots of pros and cons. But since DS was a few months old I've been sure I wanted another one. I know if I didn't at least try I'd regret it, so I got the implant out and I was really hoping I'd already be pregnant now.
It only took 4 cycles to get DS, and all went pretty smoothly after that, so I know I've been lucky with him. I'm hoping I have the same luck with number 2
But I'm super impatient and as soon as I had the implant out I wanted my positive pregnancy test.

Ah yes a close age gap is lovely @mshopey, well it is my opinion anyway! I have 2 DCs less than 2 years apart, they are best of friends (mainly) it's lovely. Good luck, keeping my fingers crossed for you. Feeling quite broody at the moment though and trying to weigh up whether we should go for #3 - heart says yes head says no!!! Xx

MsHopey · 16/08/2018 10:29

I have one DS. He turned one last week. I only want 2 children but close in age would be ideal for me. So want it to happen sooner rather than later but I do realise I'm lick to have one already.
I am using ones I got from home bargains at the moment. 5 for £3. So not clear blue but definitely not the internet cheapies xx

Might be worth trying the clear blue fertility thing, I haven't got one but have heard they are really good. Do you have any children already?
