@MrsE95 have you tried the clear blue digital ovulation tests? Last time we was TTC they worked the first cycle we tried them. I found any none digital OPKs confusing and they always gave us mixed results. Trouble is, digital ones are so expensive.

Greysgirl · 21/01/2019 17:36

@MrsE95 I’ve just done another one today and it’s got no second line at all. I’m 2 days away from OV according to my app 😬

MrsE95 · 21/01/2019 16:35

@meepmoop Massive congratulations that’s amazing!!! 💖🎉💖🎉

@greysgirl I was literally about the post the exact same thing! I’m due to ovulate (CD15) tomorrow but don’t seem to be getting anywhere near a positive OPK 😫 starting to worry that I’m not ovulating too 😞

Did anyone’s OPKs look like this 3 days running up to ov?

@meepmoop wow you have good will power I couldn't hold off telling him straight away!

@Greysgirl thank you! I ovulated on day 28 this month so maybe keep testing and you'll get a line soon.

Greysgirl · 21/01/2019 14:04

@meepmoop l’m on day 10.

Congrats on your BFP!

meepmoop · 21/01/2019 13:57

Thanks @Waiting2bMum I'm so happy. Not yet, waiting for him to finish work. Time is ticking away so slowly

Waiting2bMum · 21/01/2019 13:51

@meepmoop awwww congratulations!!👍🏻☺️😁bet you are so so happy! Have you told DH yet? X

Thank you!! @TheatreMumma

@Greysgirl I found when I started using ovulation tests I actually ovulated way later than I though I did so it might be that. How far in your cycle are you?

Greysgirl · 21/01/2019 13:17

I’ve started using OPK kits this cycle but they are all coming up negative. I’m positive I’m using them right and not drinking too much fluid etc. Is it possible that I’m not ovulating? Anyone else experienced similar?

TheatreMumma · 21/01/2019 13:11

Congratulations, @meepmoop! No denying that clear blue one!

meepmoop · 21/01/2019 13:07

So I tested again... I can't believe it

Waiting2bMum · 21/01/2019 12:18

@meepmoop aww so pleased!! Let us know when you check again x

meepmoop · 21/01/2019 12:12

Yay I'm glad it's not just me being cross eyed! DH is at work until 5 so I couldnt get his opinion.
Yeah it's the only one I took, I thought I would do another one later as I did that one not long after I had already been toilet

Waiting2bMum · 21/01/2019 11:56

@LondonKez I don't use charts, looks very confusing! Fingers crossed🤞🏻
@meepmoop omg yes I see it! Think we have another BFP on this post. Is that the only test you took?? X

OP posts:
meepmoop · 21/01/2019 09:30

An anyone else see this?

TTC #1 thread 1 2019
LondonKez · 20/01/2019 11:51

Forgot to say, I thought I'd ovulated on CD14.

LondonKez · 20/01/2019 11:50

I'm using Natural Cycles. It's shifted it now to CD10 making this cycle 21 days. But my temps have only barely made it above the cover line this cycle. It's been accurate to the day since I started using it, so will be interested to see if it's right this month.

@meepmoop shouldn't matter how much either way

meepmoop · 20/01/2019 09:40

I do that but wasn't sure if the pot needed all the urine to detect the HCG or has the same concentration in a small amount

ale2992 · 20/01/2019 09:32

They're what I use, pretty sure you're supposed to pee in a pot and then dip them in for 15 second without going above the line.

meepmoop · 20/01/2019 09:15

Ah okay, I use these ones

TTC #1 thread 1 2019
ale2992 · 20/01/2019 08:59

@meepmoop it depends on the test

meepmoop · 20/01/2019 08:48

Silly question but when you do a pregnancy test do you need to it in all your urine or just a little bit

Waiting2bMum · 19/01/2019 19:38

@fabmaz let us know how you get on with TTC☺️🤞🏻💐
@MrsE95 yeah that's normal, don't use morning urine though. You will start to see the line develop darker. Few days before ovulation I do about 4 tests over the day and the day of and after x
