Hi, I have an app to read the ovulation strips but it's saying it low. I'm expected to ovulate today or tomorrow. It looks really dark to me.
I'll attach a photo

@WildWhirlwind How long have you been trying for before your mmc? Did your cycle change a lot since then. I feel like my mmc made my cycle do a 180 turn. No more cramps, spotting for longer after initial bleeding. Ovulation has now seemed to settle between days 14-15 (before it was anywhere between 11-15). I can also feel ovulation coming from ovary pains.

Hi ladies. I'd love to join this as it looks like we're on similar timescales. I was out this month after the lightest 'period' I've ever had, alongside weird symptoms which completely convinced me I was pregnant. Negative tests all the way up to 17 DPO (yes, I was in denial!)

I ovulate quite late and have a short luteal phase after a MMC in February so I think I'll ovulate around the 16th August.

I drove myself crazy these past few weeks! Hoping you're all okay. It's sometimes hard discussing every single symptom with your partner as they're not in your body and can't feel every tiny little pull, cramp, soreness. 😅

emmatcc1 · 04/08/2024 12:02

@Bambin0 No luck, I’m due to ovulate by the end of next week.

@Bambin0 Sorry to hear that. I’m around 7/8 dpo and not giving it much thought. Won’t be too sad if af arrives as I just bought a menstrual disc and want to try it out.

How did this month go for you Emma? 💕 Any double lines or are we both in it together again this month?

I've not ovulated yet so it's gonna be a long one lol 😆 hope you're well 💯

Xx

@Bambin0 unless it's an ultra early digital, 10 dpo probably won't show a positive.

Ah see I ended up reading this earlier too.
I think I'll wait to see if AF turns up on Friday 😊

@Bambin0 My cervix was closed yesterday so I’m guessing I ovulated yesterday or the day before. I didn’t do bbt this month.
Personally I wouldn’t test. I have recently had that feeling as well. There’s only one more cycle left until my due date and I was so sure I would be pregnant by then.

Aw bless you sweetheart 🥹🩷 I'm sorry. But please don't be too hard on yourself. Just take the time to digest, and you do what best feels comfortable. Yeah I'm just gonna wait and see if AF turns up I think up ☺️

I’m pretty sure I ovulated evening of yesterday or today. Before my mc I never ovulated past cd14 but in these 6months since this has happened twice now.
I’d stay this isn’t valid. Have you done any more?

I'm guessing you know by temperature? Any other symptoms? Ewcm in the lead up?

No I haven't taken anymore. I have a digital left. Pay day is Friday lol, when AF is due so it's either hold off and use the digital tomorrow at 10dpo or just wait till Friday and see if she comes and save money... but idk I'd say I have a feeling this month but I feel that most months 😆

Should I take the digi tomorrow? I'll be 10dpo

Also, I'm 7dpo today and took a CB this morning (too early I know)
The faintest blue line came up within the 3min mark so I left it and then got what now looks like an evap.... Do I totally disregard it or hold out for that little squinter line I initially saw?

@Bambin0 I’ve also taken a break 2nd month in a row and it’s helping alot. I just checked in as I got a weird opk to ask if it’s valid. I’m cd14 not ovulated yet which is kinda odd as I usually ovulate day 14 at latest.

It really does build the mental strength just taking yourself away from it all. It's so easy to think this is your month. Hmm pretty much every cd14? From which cd did you start tracking? X

@Bambin0 yes 15 dpo today, I plucked up the courage yesterday to do my clear blue digital and got the result pregnant 2-3 weeks so looks like things are progressing well for now ❤️

How are you feeling? Has your period ended now I have so much hope for you in this cycle

Aaaah 🙈🥹😍 bless you my love. Congratulations 🎉 Awww I'm so happy for you. Such good news.

Ah thank you darling, we've taken a lil step away for now. And seeing if it maybe just happens. The toll it take on your mental being is a lot. But don't you worry I'll be sure to keep you girls posted on each lil niggle haha 😆 xx

@mountainlass that is amazing to hear 🤭 so so happy for you. How's it going today? 15dpo? You should have a nice clearblue digital coming up now i think 💕 how are you feeling?

@emmatcc1 how are you doing my love? You'll be on early CD. My thermometer came and other lil bits. Hope you're okay 😘

@Bambin0 I hope you're feeling a bit better and that's good your period is almost gone. This is a new fresh month and I am hopeful & optimistic for you both. It will happen, it's just the not knowing when that's hard ❤️

I am feeling okay, still no symptoms but I'm only 12 dpo still and know that's very early. My tests have been getting progressively darker and we've decided to just take one day at a time and enjoy knowing that right now things are okay!

@emmatcc1 thinking of you, it's so hard taking in the disappointment of another month but try to rest up & hopefully you feel a bit better once your period is over. I'm thinking of you and praying your rainbow baby is just around the corner 🌈

@emmatcc1 @Bambin0 oh girls I am so so sorry, I am behind you both every step and have everything crossed for June. We need to all remember to look after ourselves, this journey is so challenging & emotionally draining ❤️

Awe bless you love 😘 💕 thank you for your support 🙏🏼 have you tested again? How are you feeling today. Sorry girls this period had floored me but she's almost gone. Thank God.

@emmatcc1 I'm so sorry it wasn't your month, and I TOTALLY get the exhaustion at even the very thought of having to do it again. I sympathise so much. I've decided I'm on tracking and taking temps to practice that. And whatever happens happens. Because like Mentioned honestly it takes over your whole month.

(I say that then I'll be on here all excited with you girls) I also researched what supplements I should be taking so those are there too 💕 hope you are both well. I appreciate our little chat so much.

@mountainlass Af properly started now. I already feel so exhausted thinking we have to try again.

mountainlass · 03/06/2024 14:24

@emmatcc1 that is so strange I wonder what's going on with you, when is the last time you took a test?

Our bodies really can play tricks on us sometimes, I've not had any notable symptoms at all yet if I didn't test I would genuinely have had no clue I was pregnant!

emmatcc1 · 03/06/2024 13:16

I took my temp at 5am and it was 36.4, then I went back to sleep and measured again at 10am like I usually do and it was 37. My midday temps are around 37.4 in the luteal phase but no higher than 37 the day before af but just now they were 37.6. Instead of full flow I have minimal brown cm no cramps. I still have sore boobs and nausea.
