Can I ask if premon automatically checks in your lines or do you guys do it manually?

I always have trouble it doing it automatically for me :/

Mysleepingangel · 03/03/2021 18:53

@Jesslyra123 thank you, I hope this month is for you too!
I am soooo tempted to test tomorrow morning but don't want to waste such precious CB 😂

As long as the test line is same darkness or darker than the control line, you're good.
Sometimes when I have an equally dark lines, I test few hours later and normally T like is darker than C!

Baby dust to everyone

Mysleepingangel · 03/03/2021 18:37

Glad to hear you're well.

Lol I'll share mine from 27th. This was the strongest I've had!

I think I'm around 7/8dpo despite what my app is saying.

Good! I’m doing good thanks same as you just waiting! I’m on cd13 also ovulation predicted in 7 days but got a feeling it will be a day or two earlier as Iv had a few days of EWCM but not sure!

dippyegg32 · 03/03/2021 18:30

Hi all, cd13 for me and ovulated yesterday, we dtd every day from cd5-12 will give it a go once more tonight then I'm done!

Mysleepingangel · 03/03/2021 18:29

@Jesslyra123 doing OK, still have the backache, no cm now so I must have been correct to think ovulation was earlier! How are you doing

Suki2020 · 03/03/2021 18:24

@Jesslyra123 hey, I’m good thanks, still waiting for ovulation, cd13 now so hopefully sometime this week. How are you doing?

@Jesslyra123 according to my app, I'm ovulating tomorrow. However, my LH is very low now. I suspect I ovulated around 27th, which is very early for me!

Btw I had full on cramps, lower back pain, bloating and sore boobs yesterday and day before as well as spotting Blush which make no sense. Still have full backache.

I will text on Monday Blush

@Mysleepingangel ooo exciting ! Do you know when you usually ovulate or is it always that early ?

@Suki2020 I thought as much. But there’s a lot of conflicting information on google!

OP posts:
Suki2020 · 02/03/2021 13:25

@Jesslyra123 your LH level rises in the mornings that’s why your getting a low reading. They say to test after 12pm to get a true reading.

Mysleepingangel · 02/03/2021 10:58

@Jesslyra123 and @Suki2020

My cycle is normally 28days and AF is normally 2-3 days with few days of spotting. so I think I've ovulated earlier this month. Now I'm freaking out 😂

@Mysleepingangel hey! How many days is your AF and cycle? 😁 lots of baby dust to you!!

@Suki2020 how exciting aha! Took one this morning but really really faint just taking more then needed just to keep an eye on things 😁
They seem to be dark in the evenings and super faint in the mornings

OP posts:
Suki2020 · 02/03/2021 08:52

@Jesslyra123 I would say by looking at your OPK’s you will ovulate in the next few days. As soon as the left line is darker than the right you know you’ve got your peak.

Hi @Mysleepingangel can I ask how long your period normally lasts?

Mysleepingangel · 01/03/2021 21:10

Hi can I join?

Cycle one and CD11, 1dpo (according to my app though I think its more like 4dpo).
Reason is my LH surge was detected around 27th, and I've tested since and its low.

Had weird pains and spotting yesterday and sticky cm now, sorry tmi!

Will next Monday 😅

@Sparrowfeeder I have been using OPKs for 2 months now and once I see near enough peak, I test few hours later again and that's how I caught my LH surge otherwise I was missing it like you. So weird I know

These are mine since cd8 on Femometer app.
Also decided to keep them on paper to just to compare how they dry to app (I have nothing better to do ;) aha )
And these two are both from tonight same urine 10 minutes after I last used the toilet but limited fluid? This 7 minutes after the tests were dipped :) they se strong to me just don’t know what to think about these it’s so confusing

Sparrowfeeder · 01/03/2021 20:48

Mine are low still but I always do a rapid surge - closer to cd14 I will test 4 times a day to be sure to catch it as I get my peak in a few hours then back down to low again. Sharing here in case anyone else wonders why they struggle to get a peak on opks testing once a day (as I did for a while).
