I'm just being nosey 🤷 If you have photos of your OPKs from negative to positive share away! I find it super fascinating that some have a really clear progression and some are stark negative all the way until blazing positive. I'm definitely one of those who always have a pretty clear line and then all of a sudden it's positive.

Hi all, what is the app you’re using? I used ovulation tests for the first time in July but didn’t have any clear spikes. Flo keep telling me they were negative! My period is 2 days late but pregnancy tests have been negative. Also used another ovulation test which had a faint line but that can’t be true as I should be getting my period.

I’m so confused haha

I used fertility friend to track temperature and the premom app (same as above photos) to track the tests.

@HopefullMumto4 ah thank you, so new to this so I have no idea what's meant to happen. I didn't track with my first but my periods have been a bit haywire! My normal cycle is 29 days so wouldn't ovulate until Monday which is CD 16 so this makes sense. Will do twice a day anyway in case I get another weird month!

That's why I find it so fascinating! Hopefully some other people can share theirs. Maybe someone will share progression similar to yours!

@SnookyPook @HopefullMumto4 so I just tested again and it's a result of 0! Barely a shadow of the line and the app couldn't pick anything up... Surely that can't be a good sign on CD11? :(

Not necessarily! I typically don't ovulate until cd16-18 so for me anything other than negative on day 11 would be weird!

@HopefullMumto4 @ThelastRolo20 glad to have helped! I have only been using the app about 4 months - managed to fall pregnant twice just gauging it by eye. Unfortunately my second pregnancy was a MMC in April so got a bit more serious since then and started using the app. I think as long as you make sure you are DTD plenty around the time you expect to enter fertile week and the minute your opk gets darker then you should be fine regardless. Just helpful to know the peak to be more sure of exact ovulation day. Good luck!

My last two cycles.. I seem to get quite a rapid progression, usually rise a teeny bit the day before, then much higher the morning if my peak, and peak in the evening. Next day it often drops off quite dramatically again, sometimes more so than others.

Ooh that is super interesting! This is my first month using that app - previously I have just looked at the tests. So far all my tests have been 0.28 - 0.38. cd4-cd7

I'm CD 11 sorry! Not 10DPO haha - got that completely wrong. Can tell it's my first month!

ThelastRolo20 · 02/08/2023 10:41

Thanks for the, I'm using them for the first time and was worried at 10 DPO I was 0.09 (not due to ovulate until Sunday though!). Had no idea what to expect so this has really helped :)
