Hello, first month chatting with BBT and wondering if people think I have ovulated? Normally my cycles are 30 days and I get a peak around day 13 / 14. But it looks like my peak was day 11 this month and my egg was released at the same time? Only managed to DTD once as was not expecting such an early ovulation.
In terms of temping I've had a really bad past two nights and temps taken after maybe 1-2 hours of light sleep so not sure how reliable the past 2 temp rises are. The stable temps were after 6 hours of good sleep. Presume low chance of conception this month :-(

Have you got the picture of your LH test of your peak @User657891

User657891 · 12/10/2023 14:46

Yep here they are together from day 7 to today (day 12) and the peak isolated.

@User657891 carry on testing to be 100% sure but test multiple times, so again this evening and the next few days multiple times. I thought mine peaked yesterday but it’s even darker today, keep testing till they fade to be on the safe side. What has Premom put them as on the scale? I use that app too, I love it!

@User657891 also have you noticed any other signs, EWCM is a good indicator too. Also they say that you ovulate the day after your peak usually, but some cases people have confirmed with O pains that they do the same day etc.

User657891 · 12/10/2023 18:05

@Longtobe2023 hard to say - I don't really get much visible EWCM. Despite this I did conceive in April but it was a chemical. I was taking evening primrose oil this month to try and increase it but you are supposed to stop at ovulation. Since I don't know if I've ovulated I will have to stop 🤦🏻‍♀️

If your tests have started to fade after your peak and your BBT has confirmed this then looking at when you BD you are in with a chance, it only takes the once ✨

User657891 · 12/10/2023 18:53

Thanks @Longtobe2023 I'll try again tonight though assume if I did ovulate the egg might be finished now 😔

You BD on your LH peak, that really can be all it takes, also there’s no harm in doing it again. Here’s to the start of your TWW ✨ I’ll be keeping my fingers crossed for you! My peak is today so we will be going through the TWW at the same time 😊

@Longtobe2023 potentially climbing back up again this morning 🤦🏻‍♀️

Just done a clear blue OPK and got a flashing smiley!

Hi @User657891 how did you get on?

I'm considering giving OPKs a go next cycle, trying to understand how they work. Your first LH strips indicated a peak on 11th and then levels came down the next day on 12th, how did you get a flashing smiley 2days after peak day, on 13th??

User13355 · 09/12/2023 08:36

@Soulsta hello, I'm not sure what happened with the flashing smiley but I didn't get any more peaks and confirmed ovulation did take place on the date shown in my OP. I got pregnant that cycle but sadly lost the baby at 7.5 weeks. Just ovulated again and now 2DPO post miscarriage.

Soulsta · 09/12/2023 08:43

I'm so sorry to hear about your MC, the past couple of months must've been difficult. Sending you lots of baby dust and prayers for this cycle ✨
