I’ve just started tracking my BBT this month, on CD13 and been taking supplements for a few weeks now, anyone else on their second cycle?

So I was worried I was ovulating last Monday because I had CM and I remember texting my partner. I’ve based off all on CB tests but the strip ones haven’t ever been dark? I didn’t do them twice a day so I’ve no idea! Anyway I’ve just done an FRER because I’m going insane and why not spend some more on sticks!😂😂 so if it was last Monday I’m 7dpo If I’m basing it on CM…….

@ElleJones1 yay!! 🤞🏼 for you. Still not had my surge yet but only on CD18 so any day now 🤞🏼. I've gone for the quality over quantity this month cause we've both been so ill 😂 x

@ElleJones1 I'm not sure, going by google it says about testing from day 1 so it can detect the rise in LH and that it has a flashing smile on high fertility days and then a solid smile at the LH peak. So it could be that it's still looking for your peak. X

OP posts:
ElleJones1 · 17/03/2023 11:53

Ah I see!! But not enough to always be detected on the CB ones? So smiley shows it rising xx Just so I don't completely give up all faith in this!

@ElleJones1 you always have LH in your system it's just when there's a surge there will be a positive line on the cheapy stick tests. That what I've learnt x

OP posts:
ElleJones1 · 17/03/2023 11:45

Oh sorry, I meant fainter! 😂
Yeah I think I may have started testing too late but I figured it would only flash a smile if it detected the LH anyway??xx

@ElleJones1 what's finter?? Hmm it's a hard one, did they say the CB are to be used from day 1 of cycle so it can measure the LH levels from day 1? The internet ovulation tests are normally quite trustworthy I think... but that's only cause that's all I've used! It highlights the level of LH and if positive is stronger than the control line x

OP posts:
ElleJones1 · 17/03/2023 10:42

Annoyingly the strip ones literally are finter than they've ever been!! AGHHHHHH! Do I just trust the CB?? x

ElleJones1 · 17/03/2023 09:13

Yeah that's what I thought, I'm away Saturday night so hoping to catch Friday or Sunday!! x

@ElleJones1 it can live in ideal conditions up to 5 days so I think so! X

OP posts:
ElleJones1 · 17/03/2023 08:57

That's what I'm hoping for! I assume we're still able to catch it even now at high fertility?? I'm knackered 😂x
