Hi all, i had a MC in February and only started ttc in July again. We dtd at all the right times and werent successful so here I am doing daily ovulation sticks. I started testing cd 11 and now im on cd 18.... all negative. I have right sided achey pain for the last 5 days. Cm was a lil ew on day 12 and 13 but hubby was away. Im all a bit confused. My cycles tend to be about 32 days long. We fell pregnant the first try in Dec so I know in ways im fertile. Should I stop testing and give up for this month? Did I miss the surge? Am i even ovulating? Do i have low progesterone? Is it too soon to be worrying? Ahhh

I was in a similar situation the first month of TTC for this pregnancy. I used the CB advanced ovulation kit and never got a solid smiley. Next month I started testing right after my period and I couldn’t believe it when I got a solid smiley on day 9. Would not have realised I ovulated early without the tests. Conceived that month.

Last month I got my peak OPK on CD 19 and we successfully conceived! I was worrying because I use the Premom app and my test line was never as dark as the control but I took the darkest line as my peak and it seemed to work 😊
