Hi, I made a post last week about if I even ovulated.

so things have been a bit clearer lately, I believe I did ovulate last week Monday/Tuesday 10/11th as I had cramping and sharp pain on right ovary. My partner and I bd from Friday 7th until 18th (yes I’m tired now! 🤣)

on Monday 17th I had cramping that was like af, pretty strong and felt nauseous, sore boobs etc. I knew my af wasn’t due till 27th(ish).

I continued testing using ovulation strips from Tuesday 18th earlier this week up to now. It has risen steadily from 0.04 up to 0.46 last night. I have used pregnancy strips which I have had the faintest lines on Monday this week, and the same each day, I could see it but my partner and mum couldn’t, until yesterday afternoon I did a strip about 4pm, there was finally a fine line but it did show up after about 20 mins so I felt that I might be too early still. I also did frer about 6pm, it had the faintest line (still wasn’t sure if it’s the infamous indent line but it did show up within 5 mins, of course my bf couldn’t see)

symptoms I had this week:
Monday: cramping alike to af, nauseous, sore boobs, feeling a bit constipated.

tuesday: mega bloated, hot flashes on and off, slightly nauseous, sore boobs, on/off cramping, hard time going for no.2.

wednesday: slight fatigue, slight cramping, a little bloated, still can’t go, super hungry, frequent weeing.

thursday: fatigue, hot flashes, sore boobs, constipated, verrryyy hungry, frequent weeing.

friday: backache, fatigue, headache, sore boobs and nipples (like really sore!) starving, frequent weeing, very irritable mood (snapping at small things, short tempered when being bothered usually I’m laidback) easily weepy and upset about wholesome videos, constipated but did finally go about 9pm.

let’s see what today brings…

so that’s my week summed up 😳 from my calculations I’m about 11/12dpo today as opposed to thinking I ovulated on the weekend of 8th July.

I just took a test this morning on the boots hcg strip, it showed up within 2 mins so I’m assuming this might be the start of a bfp, but it could still be a bfn this week so I’m not keeping my hopes up and will sit and wait for af to arrive.

will update if I have a bright link line :)

Hi @RRM i can see a line hun xx
So happy you're getting your BFP ❤

Can definitely see the line. Do keep in mind strip tests do take longer to progress. Try a boots early midstream test and you should get something abit more definitive 🤞
Sending lots of luck x

Thank you both, did another strip test at 1pm. Same result so I will hold out a couple more days before using my last frer then cb digital on Thursday or so to be on the safe side :) but I will get the boots test stick to check in the meantime.
very tired today and a little crampy, hard time going toilet still. I can’t use laxatives or softeners as had a bowel disease as a baby. No choice but to wait it out x

@RRM congratulations! Sorry to jump on this thread but I'm hoping someone can relate to this or help me in anyway!

I've attached some pics of pregnancy tests I've done today all taken with 1 hour of each other. Test 1 looks positive
Test 2 using same urine looks negative
Tests 3 using different urine also negative

I have no idea when I ovulated but my last period was 10th -18th July
I did take the morning after pill on the 23rd

I'm unsure why I would have a positive test as the dates don't seem to work out with ovulation.

Could it be a false positive?

Thanks for reading this far!
