Is anyone using the ovusense? I have irregular periods and have been ttc for over a year! I have just purchased the ovusense but not sure what to expect! I am wondering if there are any other users?

@Moosh18 that is 3 of us with false static's! How infuriating.

How long are your cycles normally? Sorry I am so sure you said already but I cant remember...

Moosh18 · 12/04/2022 09:50

@RMS0209 I'm not sure! I stopped breastfeeding in December and only had one period since! They were so irregular before DD anywhere from 30-50 days generally! I was hoping they would become more regular but does t look like it :( how long are yours?

I've totally gone off the clear blue I won't be using again after this month!!! I'm just going to try Ovusense and not even use opks for a while it's too stressful!! X

@Moosh18 strange! 4 months... be handy if you weren't TTC!

Mines vary but not much between 28/33 days.. which is frustrating so I dont know how you cope!

I am put off them too, i tried the pink ones for a change last cycle... was the worst about 4/5 of them didnt work! wasting strips.

So frustrating @Moosh18 @RMS0209 if this has happened to the 3 of us, it must be super common and they can’t be very reliable?!

@Peonies94 exactly what I thought! Imagine we trusted that as our "peak" and just DTD then and stopped.. that would be us out for April!!

Peonies94 · 12/04/2022 11:04

@RMS0209 I know, so frustrating! No wonder people have trouble conceiving when they listen to those things!! I’ve always just DTD throughout month, but I know some people bank on them being accurate! It’s suppose to make your life easier, not harder!!

RMS0209 · 12/04/2022 11:06

@Peonies94 you are dedicated! I take my hat off to you haha, this is my first month of DTD every 2 days since AF has left. x

Peonies94 · 12/04/2022 11:17

@RMS0209 with my cycles being so irregular I have no choice reslly as can never pinpoint ovulation, and I know if I miss it, I’ll have another 90 days to go!! it’s hard going mind!

OP posts:
RMS0209 · 12/04/2022 11:44

@Peonies94 never thought about it that way, cant wait for some good news for you honestly x

Peonies94 · 12/04/2022 12:14

@RMS0209 aww! Thank you!! Same to you!!

Moosh18 · 12/04/2022 12:16

Do you use the strip opks too?

RMS0209 · 12/04/2022 12:21

@Moosh18 I do yeah, just for this month I think I will stop them next if i am still trying :)

Moosh18 · 12/04/2022 12:24

@RMS0209 I think after this cycle I'm just going to see what happens! Until after holiday in July then maybe start testing more! I can't deal with tracking such long cycles it drives me bonkers and becomes all consuming! At least if I don't test anything I can Live in an ignorant bliss that I may always be ovulating or pregnant! 😂

RMS0209 · 12/04/2022 12:55

@Moosh18 ha ha a great way to think! Where are you going on holiday? Smile

Peonies94 · 12/04/2022 18:43

@RMS0209 so I took a cheap OPK with second wee, faintest line ever! Doesn’t make sense!!

OP posts:
Moosh18 · 12/04/2022 18:48

@Peonies94 that's what happened to me! That's why I didnt believe it was static x

RMS0209 · 12/04/2022 18:58

@Peonies94 oh for goodness sake!!! going to be ovu sense for the win and every 2 days isn't it.
i don't know what else to suggest

I can share my OPK from this morning if you'd like? Premom rated it at 0.39 x

Peonies94 · 12/04/2022 19:01

@Moosh18 it just makes me feel so stressed, as part of me thinks right must DTD, and I still will and keep an eye out on temps, but also with my cycles being 30-90 days this could happen a number of times throughout the cycle and mean I’m just constantly thinking I’m about to ovulate and getting my hopes up!! Arghhh 😡

OP posts:
Peonies94 · 12/04/2022 19:03

@RMS0209 it’s got to be! I’m hoping ovusense will just help me get a better understanding of my body that’s apparently really complicated!! I am holding all hope on ovusense now!

I didn’t even bother putting mine into Premom as it was so faint you could barely see it!

A lot of unneeded stress!!!

@Moosh18 absolutely!

This is what I think with 50 day cycles I just can't do it every other day! Husband works so many hours, and we have a daughter who still doesn't sleep! We both work I just don't have it in me 😂😂 we probably do a couple of times a week sometimes more but don't think it's enough! I am going to buy conceive plus ovulation support tablets next month as have read a lot today thay they really help with ovulation!

Do you get any other signs of ovulation to give you a heads up!? Like I normally get fertile cm which I have now, so makes me think I may ovulate in a few days, which would be great timing as DH and I have five days off 😂

RMS0209 · 12/04/2022 20:01

I don't get anything 🙂... makes it all the more annoying 😂😂

RMS0209 · 12/04/2022 20:02

Also have head about the ovulation support tablets but please let me know if they are good I might Invest next month

Moosh18 · 12/04/2022 20:18

I definitely will! When we tried for 2 years for DD I used to like trying something different every month 😂 gave me hope!

WhAt I wouldn't give for regular predictable cycles!!! X
