Ovulation

Hello

Im a bit confused

Clear blue ovulation test showed that I had peaked ovulation on cycle day 12 however when I used the easy @ home ovulation test it shows that I have peaked ovulation today on cycle day 13

When I checked with the clear blue on cycle day 12, the line was very strong and clearly showed peak ovulation.

We dtd yesterday according to clear blue ovulation test kit but my husband is out for work tonight so we wasn't able to get together today :(

I am just worried that I have missed ovulation

Please can anyone advise!

Hello,

I am in the same boat as you near enough. I have a 26 day cycle that is usually consistent, my peak said that it happened on day 11 in the evening but then I had also the same high reading on the morning of day 12. From what I have ready it could have been that we have had our actual peak during the night and will ovulate anywhere from 12-36 hours later. We are on our 3rd month of trying and are hoping we got the timing right this time! 🤞🏻
I would say to try and dtd today/tonight if you can just incase your egg is still waiting, however with sperm being able to wait around for upto 5 days hopefully you have got the right time anyway as the day before ovulation is sometime better than the day of and going from your clearblue I’d say you got it just right! ☺️🤞🏻
I will be on the 2ww with you so keep me updated on how you get on, sending you all the luck and baby dust! 🍀 x

@Laurens95

Thank you for your reply.

Hopefully it will be our month today.
I will definitely keep this post updated. AF is hopefully not due but according to flo it's the 16th June!

Fingers crossed and sending you baby dust lots and lots of it xx

How long have you been ttc?
AF due on the 14th for me, lets hope we don’t see it for the next 9 or so months! 🤞🏻xx

Un7breakable · 01/06/2023 14:39

Same thing here! CB said cd 13 but easy at home said CD14. My temp started to go up CD14 but I'm pretty sure I ovulated CD15. Bizarre. I'm wondering if CB has a lower threshold than the easy at home. EAH usually gets mine right.

Laurens95 · 01/06/2023 14:49

How long are both of your cycles usually? I did notice that i only had 1 day of EWCM this time round which was about 3 days before i got my LH peak on the E@H test.. but then had extremely sore breasts and cramps the day before ovulation and day of supposed ovulation so hoping I can listen to my body more! Baby dust for us all! 🤞🏻🍀 xx

Un7breakable · 01/06/2023 15:07

@Laurens95 around 27 days it varies. Funnily enough I never usually get EWCM but got 6 days of it, three days before CB peak. Day 14 I defo had EWCM and open cervix.

My boobs are usually sore after ovulation but not this month. So confusing

Laurens95 · 01/06/2023 16:34

How bizarre! We are the opposite as I usually do get loads but not this month and usually don’t get sore boobs but did, maybe it’s a sign that something is different for us this month 😂🤞🏻x

@Laurens95
@Un7breakable

I normally have a 29-30 day cycle. It's regular.
I never used to get a peak on CB on day 12/13. I used to peak before I had my baby and never used contraception before on day 15/16.

Very strange how everything has changed.
I noticed EWCM a day before I received my peak during the night on cycle day 11 and then received a CB on day 12

Laurens95 · 02/06/2023 06:55

I wonder if you’ll maybe have a 2nd peak later on in your cycle.. I would keep testing just incase! x

Laurens95 · 05/06/2023 20:27

@rimx @Un7breakable
How are you both doing? Currently 5dpo, praying implantation happens tomorrow or very soon 🤞🏻 x

Un7breakable · 05/06/2023 20:33

@Laurens95 my temp isn't showing ovulation but everything else points towards ovulating a little late this month,.not sure our timing was good. I'm between 3 or 6 dpo, guess I'll find out when AF turns up. Either that or I didn't ovulate.

rimx · 06/06/2023 10:19

@Laurens95 @Un7breakable

I'm not very hopeful this month as we didn't BD enough I think.

We did most days leading up to peak ovulation and peak ovulation itself according to clear blue fertility monitor.

However we didn't baby dance after that I am currently 6dpo so let's see.

I haven't kept my hopes up x

OP posts:
Un7breakable · 06/06/2023 10:52

@rimx I'm in the same boat. BD before and during peak but not after what I thought was o so only 1 probably counted.

You never know though

rimx · 06/06/2023 12:29

@Un7breakable

Hopefully the one will count.
Keep the page updated x

Sending baby dust xx

Laurens95 · 06/06/2023 13:01

Hopefully that 1 was more than enough for you both 🤞🏻 I think we’re all in a similar boat as i’m not sure if I ovulated the day after peak or 2 days after, so may not have caught the perfect time. I’ll be testing on sunday 11th as AF is due on the 14th.. also feeling abit unsure this month and trying not to get my hopes up but we shall see!

Baby dust ✨xx

Un7breakable · 06/06/2023 17:46

🤞 @Laurens95

rimx · 06/06/2023 17:48

@Un7breakable @Laurens95

Hopefully we all get our positives this month. Xx

@rimx I've just started spotting so not hopeful. I do have lots of LP spotting normally so not implantation. Though it does suggest I ovulated at CD15 as I thought as otherwise I'm spotting very early.

Laurens95 · 06/06/2023 19:42

@Un7breakable When is your AF expected? x

Un7breakable · 06/06/2023 19:44

@Laurens95 Tuesday but it's not unusual for me to have 4-6 days of spotting before. Temp however is still going up. TTC is maddening.

Laurens95 · 06/06/2023 19:51

@Un7breakable I honestly have everything crossed for you that it’s different this month 🤞🏻 How long have you been TTC? x

Un7breakable · 06/06/2023 20:07

@Laurens95 Thanks. Trying trying since the start of the year but we've not been preventing it since mid 2021. Not sure which counts.

What about you?

Laurens95 · 06/06/2023 20:16

@Un7breakable Well I really do hope it happens for you very soon if not this month 🤞🏻Will this be your first?
We have been trying since the beginning of this year too but this will be our 4th cycle properly tracking everything, this would be our first baby also. I bought the proov pdg tests and started tracking that today too, I think all this tracking just made it more stressful tbh 🤦🏼‍♀️ x

Un7breakable · 06/06/2023 20:23

@Laurens95 it will be our first too.

I know what you mean. I wasn't really stressing about it when I wasn't tracking/testing at first but now if I wasn't tracking I think I'd go mad.

I've not heard of proov just googled. Let me know how you get on. It might be something I add next cycle.

TTC is expensive lol

Laurens95 · 06/06/2023 20:33

@Un7breakable Having the need to pee on a stick is a real thing haha!
The pdg I took today was positive so it says it looks like i successfully ovulated but I have to keep taking them for another 3 days. I just wanted to know if I potentially had very low progesterone so that I could consult my doctor about it if so, I will definitely keep you updated on them though.
You’re not kidding, need to take out a 2nd mortgage! 😂 x
