No ovulation?

Hi!

First time posting; came off the pill in September and my periods settled back into a 29/30 day routine.
Downloaded the Flo app; last month no ovulation and I tested everyday since the end of AF.

This month; 03-09 AF .... flo app says 11-17 chance to get pregnant - with 13th being high chance
On all the days so far I haven't had one positive ovulation test

Could it be the tests are faulty or that I'm just not ovulating Sad

I don't know about all the abbreviations yet it's my first time posting on here about this as I have no one else to talk to except my partner

The first thing you could do is maybe buy a new patch of tests to rule out if they're faulty or not.
If they come back as no ovulation then call your GP Thanks

Thank you ... I've just ordered a different brand from amazon so they'll be there tomorrow so fingers crossed 🤞🏼

That's good and quick. Hopefully the tests are just faulty but don't worry yourself if not. Your GP will talk to you about it.

@elzp have you thought about temping? That's a food way to Monitor ovulation, I t won't tell you when you are going to ovulate but you will be able confirm if you have x

I was fairly convinced I wasn't ovulating at the beginning of the year. I may or may not have been but couldn't get a positive on anything! I've swapped now to the Clearblue sticks which have shown a peak the last 2 months and I started temping this month which I think confirmed ovulation. The Clearblue tests are more expensive but worth it if you can manage to buy them (I also have found temping is stopping me wanting to take a pregnancy test so you might save money there!

Ooohh thank you - I hadn't thought about it but I'll look into it now .... learning so much on here!

After having my first child 10 years ago and not even needing to try / track this time round it seems like it's going to be harderSad

Off to search out the suggestions

Hi everyone! Don't know if anyone's around but does this test finally mean that I'm ovulating???? SmileSmile feeling hopeful!

No ovulation?

Unfortunately that's not positive yet, but it looks promising Smile

Equally there is a small chance you missed your surge if the other tests were faulty. Is it CD 12 for you? If so you probably haven't missed it, and what you're seeing today could definitely be the beginning of your surge.

Fingers crossed for you.

I would test again in a few hours as it's not as dark as the control line yet but could be soon Smile good luck

AnxiousAnnie86 · 15/06/2020 14:29

@ElzP mine normally looks like that the day before a positive for me or the morning of it! Keep testing I think you are nearly there!! X

ElzP · 15/06/2020 14:36

Omg!!!! I don't want to get too excited but you have all gave me some hope!
According to the flo app I should ovulate tomorrow - but the tests never matched up so hopefully they're in sync now SmileGrin
Going to test again tonight and tomorrow - fingers crossed I guess!

AnxiousAnnie86 · 15/06/2020 15:59

@ElzP I think you will get your positive very very soon!!! X

Do I still need to wait or is this what I wanted? Lol Grin

No ovulation?

AnxiousAnnie86 · 16/06/2020 14:35

@ElzP well I would say that's not quite there but very nearly! But mine didn't go much darker then that when I got my positive on the digital! I would go for it today as I would imagine off that ovulation will be tomorrow!!!

ElzP · 16/06/2020 14:47

@AnxiousAnnie86 thank you! Fingers crossed he's not working late tonight Grin

Why is it when you want something so badly it seems all the more stressful - our first was a happy accident!
