Have I missed ovulation?

[Giles1008]

I usually ovulated on CD15 - thought I might be ovulating a little later but just done a test and it’s literally at 0 now.

Could I have missed ovulation between CD14 and the morning of CD15?

We BD on CD13 & CD15 and I have had ewcm

DTD tonight and hopefully that’s OK 🤞🏻 feel so much happier now it’s getting darker and I least know I’m ovulating this month. Definitely going to BBT if unsuccessful from next month. Do you start tracking on CD1? I guess there isn’t much point starting now?

You're supposed to I think but I didn't until CD5 I think it was, it's good to see though as the drop matched the temp dip and now 🤞🏼 my temp is rising

I also started on cd5 as I'm tempting vaginally this month so wanted to wait till af had finished.
There's no point in starting now, no, as you need a baseline to compare to... obviously hope this month is lucky for you, but if not I defo recommend starting next month!

Something weird is happening to me now... I defo o'd on CD19 as my opks show this and my temps confirm it, but this is my opk from a bit earlier... I'm so confused 🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️😅 Surely this must just be a defective LH strip? Wish I didn't throw away my wee now so I could test another one in it 😅 Also, I know it's odd that I took one, but I like to do it ever couple of days after it starts decreasing (probably to help me with my poas addiction 🙈

Forgot to attach pics!

@HannahLouD maybe it’s just staying high? Have you taken another? I ran out so have ordered some easy @ home one being delivered today. When are you testing?

Just jumping on the thread @HannahLouD and @Giles1008 why do you mention doing your BBT before you are disturbed? I’ve been tracking my BBT with my Apple Watch but I do sleep with my little one and I am disturbed all night, would this make my readings not accurate? That could explain why I don’t seem to be able to track ovulating or a rise in temp!

@LolaStanley1 yes I think it’s suppose to be uninterrupted sleep, can’t remember exactly but 6 hours? I had a friend who used to do it in the night if she woke up for wee because after going back to bed it wasn’t accurate anymore.

Oh wow, I haven’t had uninterrupted sleep for more than 2 hours in 2.5 years! Ha ha no wonder it’s all over the place.

Update: it was a dodgey opk... Back down to where it should be now 😂🙈

You're supposed to have at least 3 hours of uninterrupted sleep... Not that that's possible for a lot of people!

Oh that’s good @HannahLouD how long have you been TTC? Not sure when to test I think I was about 10DPO when I got my BFP with my son which is next Sunday 😬

@Giles1008 eek! We're testing the same weekend. AF is due 1st April for me and I'm 3DPO currently

@Angelselevenx do you only have a short luteal phase? I’m not due AF until the following Friday. Mine is usually about 16 days after ovulation 😒 feels so long! But hoping for a little Christmas baby.

@Giles1008 yeah I do, around 11 days. Which is nice as it's a few less days to wait but obviously a longer LP would be beneficial!

Do you track your BBT?

@Giles1008 I came off the pill late December so this is our third cycle... Felt so lucky when I got my bfp last month (10dpo), couldn't believe it only took two cycles, but here we are again! 🤞It won't take long again but who knows!
I got my bfp with my daughter (she's 5 next month) a day before AF was due but she was a complete surprise and wasn't trying so wasn't early testing... Only tested because I felt "off" and my sense of smell was sooo heightened, I just knew.
Would have loved to have had another much closer together but I wasn't in a relationship with my daughter's dad, we were just friends with benefits kinda thing 🙄🙈 I have a stable partner now and we just bought a house together last summer so the time finally feels right. I'm 28, he's 34 so hoping if it does take some time, at least age is kinda on my side still 🤞(would honestly probably love 3 kids but we shall see! 😂)
Have you been ttc for long? How old is your son? 😊

Hi @LolaStanley1 @Giles1008 i track bbt on natural cycle. I sleep around 10pm, wake up 1am, 3am, 6am. I track the first time I wake up, natural cycle says at least 3hrs of uninterrupted sleep. Despite me keep waking up the app is extremely accurate with also the confirmation of the 2x pink peak day cb ovulation sticks.

although today for the first time I only had 1 day of a static smiley face which I’m confused about as usually I get 2 days in a row static smiley. We’ve been trying for 3 months now. It’s my 5th pregnancy with 3x loses. All those pregnancies I got pregnant instantly so this wait is sending my anxiety through the roof. Natural cycle said I ovulated today and My period is due 10th april. Hate the wait ! Good luck all

I tried to check my watch in the night but I guess I never had an undisturbed 3 hours, but I got an average in the morning. I can’t seem to LH test either as never have greater than 0.45 and I never got peaks with my first one either.. my apps all day I’m due AF in 3 days so guess I’ll just wait and see

Congratulations on the house! Yes time is definitely on your side, I’m 30 and my husband is 34 so we should be fine too I think.

We’re just in the process of buying at the moment it’s a real “doer upper” so having a few problems with the mortgage because it needs some structural work but 🤞🏻 it goes through soon. My little boy was 2 in January, so there will be about a 3 year age gap between him and any new babies. Your little girl will be old enough to remember a new a baby which is sweet.

This is our first month TTC properly but I’ve been tracking and taking vitamins since January. Pretty sure I’m ovulating and seem regular so hoping it won’t take too long - going to test from 9 DPO probably because I’m too impatient 😂

@Giles1008 sorry for the late reply! How are you getting on? Have you tested yet?

Thank you! Congrats to you too! That's so exciting... Ours is a new build so not much to do to it, but I reckon a doer upper could be fun! It's nice to have something to work on :)

I actually got my bfp this morning at 10dpo 😊

Praying it's a sticky one this time 🤞🙏

Ahhh Congratulations, such wonderful news! I’m only 5DPO feels like I have so long left to wait.

Sunday will be 10DPO so I will test then too 🤞🏻

Do you have any symptoms yet?

@Giles1008 how are you feeling? I'm 7DPO today. Are you temping? If so what's your graph looking like so far?

@Angelselevenx I’ve had a ‘full’ feeling but it was actually over ovulation so nothing to do with any possible pregnancy. I’m not BBT this month it’s our first month trying, but I might next month. When I had our son I wore a fit bit and my heart rate never dropped so I knew I was pregnant it just keeps rising, so might start wearing that again.

How about you? Will you test early?

@Giles1008 oh good luck, how long were you TTC for your son? Good idea, if anything it just gives us more awareness of our bodies!

I tested today but no line whatsoever, there was a slight shadow but I think that was an evap. I just don't feel any different bar the cramps etc so I really think I'm out.

Well AF arrived for me so I'm assuming I didn't ovulate as we were SMEPing this month again! Had my AMH blood test on Tues so we see the consultant on the 11th & I have a scan, hopefully we'll get some answers as to what's going on!
