hey ladies im Sooo confused.
I'm cd 40.
I got my opk peak on cd 20
BFN tests (Inc this morning)
No signs of my period. Cervix is high.
Couple days a go I started getting discharge, like ewcm but thinner. I did an opk and it was low.

Today I've had proper ewcm so I took another opk and it's high/possible peak

The preggo tests in using are internet cheapies if that makes a difference.

Yeah you're right I have heard that. I have none in the house only tests. As frustrating as it is I'm going to try and hold out until the weekend now, it's all so draining!

Hey just wondering if any update? I'm literally in the same position. Cd39 for me. I wrote a post just now with all my symptoms nausea (to the point I was sick), strong cramps but not as bad as AF, my boobs are slightly itchy, an abundance of lotiony type cm but still bloody bfn. I had a positive opk confirmed by clear blue 19th Dec and dtd all over the right days. Slowly driving myself crazy over here.

OPKs pick up pregnancy early on before an actual pregnancy test will. Maybe try doing one?

Did two more tests this morning and both are BFN.
I also took an opk last night and this morning and the lines in there are getting fainter.

So I don't think I'm pregnant but I've had an LH surge so either my period may FINALLY show next few days (cycle day 45 I think)
Or it was ovulation and I just didn't have a period last month.

Yeah but clear blue are not very sensitive abd a line is a line. Have you tried a FRER.

That was a clear blue early detection that supposedly pics up at 10miu

I also took another of the internet cheapies from the pack I got the first line as well as a early detection test I found in my local pharmacy that says it detects at 10miu (both pink dye) after holding urine for 4 hours and both negative.
(Excuse the side of the bath 🤣)

Would have expected a faint line if I was preggo even if I didn't hold the wee that long tbh.

It was an early detection one

A clear blue was BFN 🤷🏼
I did fuck up and forgot I had a wee on the way out of the house so I only held that wee for maybe 2 hours.
Will try again in the morning I guess.

I just thought I’d throw this in there - I’m currently pregnant and if I used a LH test, it’s the darkest test I’ve ever seen in my life. Before pregnancy I’d never had a test line the dark.

I just did one as an example - see pic and this is with extremely diluted urine (dipped straight from the bowl - lol!)

the pregnancy tests you’re using - what sensitivity are they? 10ml? 25ml?

My friend also didn’t have a positive pregnancy test for three months..

The tests are cheap dip sticks from Amazon that are meant to detect at 10miu

I don't feel pregnant, especially like with my first two (one eptopic, one child)

It feels like ovulation, ewcm, increased sex drive etc
But i wasn't sure whether I would ovulate again without a period.

I've been through this. My LH would rise so much so that I would get a positive opk just before my period. It is not unheard of. Also the cervix position was not a reliable indication of pregnancy for me, especially early on. I speak from experience as I am pregnant with no2 after 19 months of trying and endless symptom spotting and peeing on sticks. It's very frustrating so you have my sympathy

I only mentioned cervix being high as I get a very clear change and drop to low right before my period which hasn't happened.
So frustrating!
