Confused with OPK's this cycle

[Melbell639]

Hi,

So, this is my fifth cycle ttc and I usually ovulate around day 15/16. All my other cycles I have had low readings below 0.2 and then a steady and consistant rise up to peak. This cycle though I'm not sure what is going on. Am I going to peak really late this cycle? Or not at all? Or could I have peaked early and missed it. I've been really busy this month so decided to start doing the opk's on cycle day 13 as I was sure I would follow the same pattern as the other months. But it's cycle day 18 and still no real sign of a rise. Should I carry on testing or give up this month and just wait for AF to arrive?

Sorry I've unlikely got any useful insights but it must be really frustrating for you. I know my sister discovered she was ovulating quite late in her cycle and was missing fertile week as a result. Conversely, the month I conceived I ovulated early on CD10 and when I'd tracked previous months had nearly always been day 14/15 with a 27/28 day cycle. The body does some strange things so definitely worth continuing to test and hopefully it's just a late ovulation this month.

I thought I’d missed ovulation this cycle because I had ewcm and cramping. But it rose really quickly 2 days later so still a possibility you might ovulate a bit late this cycle!

Thank you for the replies. It's so frustrating when our bodies go rogue! 😂So I think I've finally got my peak, which means my cycle this month is going to jump from being 28/29 days long to like 37! I've never had my tests look like they have this cycle. I was convinced that my peak was going to be on the 18th but nope.

I was going to say keep testing but I see you’ve now got your peak. This happened to me on my last cycle, I usually get the peak on cd18 and for some reason this time it ended up appearing on cd23 instead.

Update!

Never been so confused with a cycle before! 😂None of my other cycle's have been like this one. I usually get a steady rise and fall. No idea why it's gone all weird this cycle!
