Cycle Help please

[Bic501]

It's a long one, please bear with me, would really appreciate the help.
I'm 33 ttc number 4, still on cycle 3 which is currently CD 34 which is unusual for me.
You might wanna get some popcorn as here the story of this cycle, I know some of u ladies are really knowledgable so might be able to give me some insight if you don't mind, here goes...

So cycles have been lasting 29-31 days since coming of the pill in January. 1st month trying we didn't use any opks, BFN. 2nd cycle used CB Digi opks and got peak on CD 15, BFN.
This cycle started off like the others, started using the CB Digi opks, started getting High readings on CD 14 and 15 but ran outta opks but thought I would ov around CD 16 again so continued to DTD until CD18. DH was then away for work but on what I thought was 8dpo or CD 24 I started having really I mean really tender throbbing breasts, creamy Cm, nausea, lower back ache all the pregnancy symptoms I'd had with my last pregnancies so I was pretty convinced. Tested on what I thought was 12dpo, 14 dpo and 16dpo with all BFN's. So now I dunno what's going on, I'm starting to think I ovulated super late and those symptoms were ovulation but i have never had those before unless pregnant. And I don't understand why I would of started getting high on my opks if I didn't ovulate when I was likely to. Any advice or thoughts or has my cycle just started to really mess up?

Anyone? Please

Bump

Cant help other than to say there's a fair few posts on this now. I can only think corona virus upheaval has caused delayed ovulation in many people. My cycles has gone AWOL also, and it's never happened before.

Thank you for taking the time to reply x

I can't offer much help or advice I'm afraid but I use the clear blue digital opks and I know it's very possible to get highs without every getting your peak. They pick up a different hormone for your peak.

I've not been pregnant before but I have been convinced that I was due to symptom spotting (isn't that the worst torture?!) I did however end up with a an usual period (I won't gross you out with the details) so have always assumed it was a chemical pregnancy- I didn't actually test though as by that point it didn't seem worth it if that makes sense. This is always a possibility with you if you were adamant you'd have a bfp? Imo it's that or just simple symptom spotting that's read between the lines. Please don't take that offensively, like I say I've done it myself along with half of mumsnet by the looks of lots of posts!

You're doing everything right by tracking your ovulation etc. Just keep going! I'm sure they say it's only a 25% chance of falling each cycle we try so keep going and fingers crossed for next cycle for you!

Aw thanks @sausageface. Been reading about the cb Digi opks I could of got that flashing smiley face for days. I just assumed it be like the month before. Just wish af would come always so I can start again albeit a bit wiser
