Fed up no positive opk

[messame]

Urgh I feel like they literally all look the same no darker at all fed up now!!

You're only on CD13! Still plenty of time, try not to be worrying! Keep an eye on things like EWCM and randy-ness levels (no nice way of putting that 🤣) cause I always notice them before I get a positive OPK.

It´s still early days… I am on CD19 and have just started having a surge. I was fed up as well but then I tried to rationalize it and today it really went up! Fingers crossed!!

Still plenty of time it's so early. Keep testing cos they can just spike out of nowhere too

Think I'm just getting more annoyed because I normally O around CD16/17 but have O'd 12/13 in the past
I'm away this weekend so the latest I can BD is CD14, maybe the morning of CD15 and then I wont be back til evening of CD17 so I feel like I'm going to miss my peak :(

And to top if off 4 days of flashing smileys is not helping my annoyance levels! Got my hopes up for an early O!
I have had EWCM today though so I'm hoping for a peak tomorrow

Hi @messame try not to give up hope just yet! My cycles lengths are longer than normal as I have PCOS. Before my MC in July my two previous cycles I peaked on CD25 then after my MC I peaked on CD17. This cycle I had a flashing smile for 11 days and then today I got a static smile and a dye stealer on the strip tests. So I have peaked on CD20.
I know it's frustrating but try stick with it and as the others say, it's still early days and you can sometimes peak out of nowhere xx

IC OPK is literally non existent today! Guess my hope of peak today is out the window 😭😭😭

@messame how often are you testing? How long do you let the tests sit before analyzing them?
Last cycle I had a really clear peak testing twice a day. This cycle I haven't been able to detect a peak but levels were still high and then dropped. I've also opened a new box and I find that I need to leave them longer than before to get a clear reading. Fingers crossed!

Call me crazy but I'm testing 3-4 times a day 🤣 POAS addict here.
I normally look after 5 mins then again after about 30

Last cycle I had a negative in the morning, high in afternoon then peak in evening so I know it can come on quick

I'm just frustrated this month because I know tonight is last night we can BD then won't be able to til CD17 so just feel like we're gonna miss peak

@messame I'm only on my second cycle. Last month I took it easy until the peak came and then I was a nervous wreck during the tww. It was a super clear peak as well, within twelve hours.
This month I've noticed it all started much later and yesterday am the levels starting going up. In the evening they weren't as high so I kept testing all through the night.
Here I am saying this cycle I want going to obsess and here I am, obsessing.
The problem with all this is that BDing turns into a chore, it has to be done today because of not the timing goes all haywire etc etc. Drives me nuts and takes all the fun out of it. A friend of mine always says that you need to take BD when ttc as a medicine, a half hour treatment you take every one or two days during ten days a month. Mind you, she now has four so maybe it's the right mentality

i don't get an sort of increase til day 17 and even then i don't get a "positive" but it does get significantly darker with is apparently ok.

So as expected no peak yet(CD15)
CD17 is my normal O date so kind of expecting peak tomorrow

Me and DH BD'd yesterday (CD14) but can't again now until CD17

Have we got any chance this month? Or is it unlikely :(

CD16 today still flashy smiley but I think I'm finally seeing some progress on ICs from this morning to just now
Fingers crossed for peak later or tomorrow morning!
Tomorrow would be good as I'm home tomorrow and can BD!

The bottom lh one looks positive or very close. Not everyone gets a full positive. It's definitely getting darker so looks like you're about to! Get baby dancing

The bottom one looks promising 🤞🏼 testing started making me so frustrated (took us 2.5 years to conceive) so I stopped testing and started listening to my body. I realised I naturally got more in the mood and really wanted my DH during my ovulation so I started using that as an indication to seduce him.

Hi ladies, I hope you don’t mind me joining in on this thread. This our 2nd cycle TTC, I’ve been testing ovulation since CD8 and now on CD18 and all negative. I have been using the strip tests but found them tricky to read at times so changed to digital for the past couple of days. I thought this early on I would be quite relaxed but no luck there 😅 Trying not to get disheartened but I can’t help but worry that I don’t ovulate. Hoping everyone is coping okay and sending you all baby dust!

I went out tonight (hence why away and can't BD) drank a lot of water and a lot of cocktails
Came back expecting peak and instead barely a line

Is that because I've drunk so much liquid amounr?

I would think so. Try again when you wake up, 🤞🏼 I was using these strips at some point and sometimes I never got dark dark line and what you had at the bottom one was the darkest I got.

FMU still quite diluted but the line is much darker but not possible

Think I may have missed my peak last night 😔😔😔😔

If you are coming home today you could try to seduce your partner and see what happens. I was sure I had missed our opportunity on a Friday night when my DH was too exhausted after his work but then we had a nice Saturday night and I actually did get pregnant.

Omg finally!! 😁😁

Amazing!!!!! Are you back home?

Will be in 2 hours! Yay!

This actually made my day! 🤩 good luck! I pray for a positive update in a few weeks time. 🤞🏼

Aww thank you so much
Are you TTC? If so good luck to you too!!

I had a baby last year.
