@nt1992 the tests can still show your hormones are high before you actually ovulate. Have you taken a clear blue one to make sure?

This period needs to hurry up and arrive!! I feel so sick! I even did a test when I came home as I felt sick. BFN. So I know it's not pregnancy sickness!

@PrettyGirl5545 yup, you ovulate once every cycle. Whether you release one or two eggs is what causes twins to be born but you ovulate only once.

EightiesBaby · 25/11/2019 18:36

@PandaPink congratulations!!!

@Louu99 been reading your posts up to date, hope your ok lovely. Have you got a strong support network? Xx

PrettyGirl5545 · 25/11/2019 18:00

@nt1992 that's fine! I also ovulate btw cd11-cd14.
So you are in for the 2ww darling!

@mellymoo86 is it 100% true that we ovulate ONLY ONCE in a cycle.

nt1992 · 25/11/2019 17:19

@PandaPink 30 days I think x

PandaPink · 25/11/2019 17:04

@nt1992 how long are your cycles?

nt1992 · 25/11/2019 16:55

I think I could just be at the start of my ovulation, it starts tomorrow peaking on 30th finishing on 2nd. Will keep taking the strips to see.

nt1992 · 25/11/2019 16:35

@PandaPink usually like clockwork

PandaPink · 25/11/2019 16:34

@nt1992 are your periods regular?

nt1992 · 25/11/2019 16:32

@Waiting1987 oh god it's going to be a long month waiting this out not knowing if I've ovulated when I thought I had😂

Waiting1987 · 25/11/2019 16:23

@nt1992 You can get more than one surge, those strips measure the LH surge as your body prepares to ovulate. They don't actually show whether you have ovulated just the surge in hormones. Think you can only confirm ovulation by temping or scan.

So it's possible you had a surge but haven't ovulated yet and will get another surge later in cycle.

I've had dark lines since 16th so mega confused what's happening in there.

nt1992 · 25/11/2019 16:23

@mellymoo86 god knows, maybe my urine was too diluted?

mellymoo86 · 25/11/2019 16:21

@nt1992 then maybe it's picking up a rise in oestrogen only and when you peak is when LH is detected 🤷🏽‍♀️

nt1992 · 25/11/2019 16:15

@CiaraJ01 last month ovulation started on day 11 peak at day 18. I'm on day 11 of this cycle the now

nt1992 · 25/11/2019 16:06

@mellymoo86 I will keep checking. So confusing

mellymoo86 · 25/11/2019 16:05

@nt1992 hmm, keep an eye on it. Not sure how the cheap strips work. The cb ones detect a surge in LH and oestrogen. Sometimes it high fertility for ages because oestrogen keeps going up and up. I would say monitor it and see

CiaraJ01 · 25/11/2019 16:05

@nt1992 when do you usually ovulate or were expecting to?
@Skygirl1983 I think we need a meltdown every once on a while!
@mellymoo86 thanks! PJs are on, waiting for OH to demolish the roast 😂 Had a crisp sandwich while waiting 🙈

zeeeex · 25/11/2019 16:03

@Diamond94 I was doing a test every couple of days a few weeks ago, was becoming obsessed. Realised there was no real point in taking tests until my period was late, and its now about 10 days late (I'm not that great at tracking my cycle after being on the pill and running pill packs together haha).

I have an exam a week tomorrow so TRYING to hold off taking a test until that's over with as my mind will be elsewhere when I realllly gotta pass this exam hahaha.

What symptoms did you say you were having?! I have lower back-ache, period type cramps and keep getting hot flushes !!??

nt1992 · 25/11/2019 16:00

@mellymoo86 this is so strange🤷🏽‍♀️ I'm only on cycle day 11

mellymoo86 · 25/11/2019 15:59

@nt1992 looks like ovulation is over...No you can't have two surges. You can only ovulate once.

ceebee21 · 25/11/2019 15:54

@PandaPink - FRER's, so really makes me feel like I am out haha.

Will try again tomorrow at 10DPO and see if there is anything there!

xx

nt1992 · 25/11/2019 15:54

@PandaPink DTD last night so hope I've caught does that mean I won't have another surge? Can you have more than 1 surge each month?xx

PandaPink · 25/11/2019 15:53

@ceebee21 what tests are you using? Only really from cd10 have I though I saw a line but we'll outwith the time limits of the test. Are you using FRER?

@nt1992 Looks like you had your surge late lastnight/this morning x
