OPK peak??

257 replies

Bouncytree · 20/10/2020 12:20

I can’t tell if I have peaked and missed it, or if I am yet to peak.

I was at 40% high one evening...but then back to low levels and fluctuating slightly since then. Back to 0% now. See picture

Could I have peaked overnight and missed it? Is that even possible? Are my LH levels just fluctuating as they go down? if I’m now at 0% does that mean The peak has passed?

Last few cycles testing I got very clear peaks 100-200%. So I am very confused by all this! We have been DTD every two days in case 😅😅😅

Can anyone shed on light on what might be happening? So confused 🤪

OPK peak??

@Char899 no, but you've just reminded me too!! Im going to after work 🙌🏼

@jessi60 oh yay, that's super promising that your cycle has returned back normal!!xx

Char899 · 06/11/2020 14:26

@Rachel93x ahh damn af! On to the next cycle! 🤞🏼🤞🏼 Did you order a thermometer in the end?

@jessi60 yay! I was the same when I got my period after I came off the pill I was so excited! Haha! Oh I wish but sadly Im pretty sure I’m just having an off month and ovulating late!

jessi60 · 06/11/2020 14:10

@Char899 I know a few people who’s ovulation tests have been really positive and it turns out their pregnant! Exciting !! Xx

jessi60 · 06/11/2020 14:09

Well Af has started today. 27 days exactly since my withdrawal bleed after the implant. Was actually very pleased as I now know I’ve had a period! Wahoo! X

Rachel93x · 06/11/2020 13:34

@Char899 That's exactly how mine was this cycle!! So hope you've had the chance to DTD 🙈😂

I know, I've done the whole POAS from 5DPO, then had positives 9DPO-11DPO and ended in an early miscarriage/chemical pregnancy so had I not tested so early, I'd of been none the wiser & not got so stressed! Although, I knew as soon as I mentioned it being so light and faint on here, it would become heavier..low and behold, it has 😂

Char899 · 06/11/2020 13:23

@Rachel93x You haven't taken a test? Oh my god the willpower! Take one take one!

Yeah they will still high this morning (so that’s promising) and are starting to come down now!

OPK peak??
Rachel93x · 06/11/2020 13:05

I haven't taken any 🙈 but I'm pretty sure last month when I had a chemical, I was spotting 3 days before AF arrived! Maybe if it's not full swing come Tuesday (AF is due Monday) I'll maybe do a test to be certain! It's just really weird that I don't have any cramping, which I normally get really bad during this part of my cycle 🤷🏼‍♀️

Have your OPK's gone back down now?xx

Char899 · 06/11/2020 12:57

@Rachel93x have you taken another test just to be sure?

Rachel93x · 06/11/2020 12:49

Odd month alright, this spotting is doing my head in 🙃😂 it's like, SO faint and only when I wipe (again, sorry for over sharing haha) I'd rather just get this period over and done with so we can start on those famous OPK's again!

Char899 · 06/11/2020 12:37

@Bouncytree did you use a frer? How late are you now? Any other symptoms? Sounds like we are all having an odd month this month! Fx for everyone that we get our bfps soon x

Bouncytree · 06/11/2020 08:04

@jessi60 ah yes I see. That’s always so tough, you just don’t know where you are. Very confusing.

Sorry to hear AF showing her face @Rachel93x! Any month another shot. Get a good rest in now before the sexathon! It’s always nice to stop being obsessed for a few days...but then the ovulation obsession starts!

@Char899 ovulation varies from month to month, so this may not be your regular pattern.lets wait and see the pattern next month. Fingers crossed it evens out a bit.

Still no AF today, BFN with FMU. In my head I’m flipping widely thinking I must be PG to don’t be silly...but then what’s the explanation. 🤷‍♀️ And then what’s causing the awful cramps and nausea. This is a strange month!

@Rachel93x yeah just look on Amazon for a basal body thermometer. (BBT) It’s more accurate as is to 2 decimal points whereas a normal one is 1 decimal point. I set an alarm for 6, stick it in my mouth and go back to sleep. If ds lets me.. haha

Rachel93x · 05/11/2020 16:36

@Char899 I think I might! I read it's gotta be done first first first thing in the morning, around the same time! Is there a particular thermometer I need?🙈

Char899 · 05/11/2020 16:24

@Rachel93x ah that’s so annoying! Damn af! Fx for next month. Are you going to look into temping? It’s really easy and that’s how I knew I didn’t ovulate when my opk made out I would

@Bouncytree yep! such a rollercoaster! so glad I carried on testing. I’ve already warned dh I’ll be pouncing when he gets home! My only worry is if I now have a 7-9 day luteal phase there’s no way I’ll get pg. hopefully a longer cycle! Never had this with ds, it’s so stressful!
Knowing me I’d go and get another frer but I’m an addict and simply can’t help myself 😂 hint hint (do it)

Rachel93x · 05/11/2020 15:39

@Bouncytree I'd probably say it's a bit more and earlier than normal but know for sure I'm out 🙈

I'd try it again in a couple of days! I was looking online earlier at latest BFP days (can you tell ive had a boring work day 😂) and some are 16DPO and 4 days late etc! So you're not out until AF shows!

jessi60 · 05/11/2020 15:26

@Bouncytree I haven’t had one since my implant was out so not a clue 😟 x

Bouncytree · 05/11/2020 15:10

@Char899 yep that’s an ovulation peak...better get in the baby dance again! Jez you’ve had a rollercoaster. Better keep testing too...just in case. Lucky you kept an eye on it.

But don’t worry!! Today and tomorrow are the best days for BD if that’s your peak.You will be fine. But very sick of DTD 🤣

You may just be a late ovulator. Not everyone ovulates mid cycle and it can vary month to month. Confusing I know!

@Rachel93x is that what AF looks like normally?

@jessi60 when is AF due?

Feeling a little less tough now, Thank god, but still yuk. This cannot be due to my period can it? Anyway no sign of AF Yet. Not sure if I should fork out for another FRER tomorrow. Seems pointless

Rachel93x · 05/11/2020 14:55

@Char899 oh wow, that is a blinder!!! I have 28-35 day cycle day can ovulate day 21 too, which is the day I ovulated this month! May just be having a slightly longer than normal cycle?🤷🏼‍♀️ it's good that you've had such a peak!!

I'm 11 DPO so think it's likely to be to la the for that! It's bizarre as normally have really bad cramps from ovulation to AF but this month I think I've had two days with cramps and haven't got anything now! It's brown spotting atm (sorry for over sharing ahhaha) so expecting it to be AF!

Char899 · 05/11/2020 14:55

*luteal

We havnt bd since cd 15 either because we thought it was over and dh has been working long hours. So we have missed out on the last few days 😡

Char899 · 05/11/2020 14:47

@Bouncytree sorry to hear that. Fx still crossed for you it’s not over yet!

@Rachel93x what dpo are you? Could it be implantation bleeding?

I’m having a weird one too. I thought I was 5dpo after my peak on cd 14. My temp never spiked so I carried on testing just because I had a niggly feeling that something weird was going on.. especially given I still have ewcm! Sure enough I’ve just got this absolute blinder! I don’t understand! It’s cd20 and I only have a 28-30 day cycle. If I ov tomorrow that’s cd 21 which would mean I’d have a really short literal phase. Proper stressing now but will def bd tonight just incase

OPK peak??
jessi60 · 05/11/2020 14:28

Think I’ll be onto this next month with just ovulation testing. Still no period and no positives on any tests 🤷🏻‍♀️ Never mindddd x

Rachel93x · 05/11/2020 13:58

@Bouncytree I'm sorry to hear you're having a rough time! Fingers crossed you go onto have a BFP!

I've either worked out my dates wrong or AF is making an early show 😫 spotting a started! Onto the next month I go! 🤷🏼‍♀️

Bouncytree · 05/11/2020 13:55

@Rachel93x BFN this morning in early response test. I think I may have miscounted my dates and today should be AF. But hadn’t showed up yet. I have had mad cramps all day, feel nauseous and nothing! Can’t figure out if this is a really bad AF like I’ve never had before or if I am pregs abs it not showing up. Either way I feel horrific! Struggling to work here

jessi60 · 04/11/2020 22:07
