Ovulating late? Day 21

Hi everyone. I am on my 5th cycle TTC number 2. I had a chemical the first cycle but nothing since. It did seem
to mess up my cycles though in terms of length as before they were generally regular 28-30 days. I didn’t track ovulation the first couple month, then clear blue OPK next two cycles.

This month I started BBT tracking this but now I am using three apps simultaneously (Clue, Premom and Natural Cycles) so it’s all quite confusing.

According to Clue I should have ovulated CD 15 which seems unlikely based on my BBT and Premom OPK.

I didn’t get a peak on Premom but think it could’ve been overnight on CD18 (as screenshot) and then Natural Cycles says ovulation on CD21 which seems super late!

We were trying every other day but got lazy so only managed 15,17,19 and 23 over the latter part of the cycle.

Any advice on whether CD21 is really late for ovulation? I think I get too excited with DTD once my period ends and we run out of steam too quickly into the cycle perhaps.

My son who is 2 was conceived on CD21. I'm currently pregnant again and I hit peak fertility (solid smiley on clearblue) on CD20, but I'm pretty sure I actually ovulated on CD21 again.

I have only ever used the clearblue OPKs - I know they are expensive but they work well for me. So can't comment on BBT sorry!

Thanks Pebbles. My son is 2.5 :) congrats on your pregnancy! How long are your cycles usually?

I think I will use the CB ones again next month and see if it marries up with the BBT suggestion.

Normally about 30-32 days. My luteal phase is on the short side but obviously not too short! Good luck x
