Ovulation

Hello

Im a bit confused

Clear blue ovulation test showed that I had peaked ovulation on cycle day 12 however when I used the easy @ home ovulation test it shows that I have peaked ovulation today on cycle day 13

When I checked with the clear blue on cycle day 12, the line was very strong and clearly showed peak ovulation.

We dtd yesterday according to clear blue ovulation test kit but my husband is out for work tonight so we wasn't able to get together today :(

I am just worried that I have missed ovulation

Please can anyone advise!

@rimx @Un7breakable
How are you both doing? Currently 5dpo, praying implantation happens tomorrow or very soon 🤞🏻 x

I wonder if you’ll maybe have a 2nd peak later on in your cycle.. I would keep testing just incase! x

I normally have a 29-30 day cycle. It's regular.
I never used to get a peak on CB on day 12/13. I used to peak before I had my baby and never used contraception before on day 15/16.

Very strange how everything has changed.
I noticed EWCM a day before I received my peak during the night on cycle day 11 and then received a CB on day 12

How bizarre! We are the opposite as I usually do get loads but not this month and usually don’t get sore boobs but did, maybe it’s a sign that something is different for us this month 😂🤞🏻x

@Laurens95 around 27 days it varies. Funnily enough I never usually get EWCM but got 6 days of it, three days before CB peak. Day 14 I defo had EWCM and open cervix.

My boobs are usually sore after ovulation but not this month. So confusing

Laurens95 · 01/06/2023 14:49

How long are both of your cycles usually? I did notice that i only had 1 day of EWCM this time round which was about 3 days before i got my LH peak on the E@H test.. but then had extremely sore breasts and cramps the day before ovulation and day of supposed ovulation so hoping I can listen to my body more! Baby dust for us all! 🤞🏻🍀 xx

Same thing here! CB said cd 13 but easy at home said CD14. My temp started to go up CD14 but I'm pretty sure I ovulated CD15. Bizarre. I'm wondering if CB has a lower threshold than the easy at home. EAH usually gets mine right.

How long have you been ttc?
AF due on the 14th for me, lets hope we don’t see it for the next 9 or so months! 🤞🏻xx

Hello,

I am in the same boat as you near enough. I have a 26 day cycle that is usually consistent, my peak said that it happened on day 11 in the evening but then I had also the same high reading on the morning of day 12. From what I have ready it could have been that we have had our actual peak during the night and will ovulate anywhere from 12-36 hours later. We are on our 3rd month of trying and are hoping we got the timing right this time! 🤞🏻
I would say to try and dtd today/tonight if you can just incase your egg is still waiting, however with sperm being able to wait around for upto 5 days hopefully you have got the right time anyway as the day before ovulation is sometime better than the day of and going from your clearblue I’d say you got it just right! ☺️🤞🏻
I will be on the 2ww with you so keep me updated on how you get on, sending you all the luck and baby dust! 🍀 x
