Ovulation question

[TTCnewbies]

Hi all, 2nd cycle trying for us. Last month I went by the glow app which gave me a 1 week fertile window. I had strong ovulation cramps so vaguely knew when I was ovulating and we DTD most days that week. Unsuccessful.
This month, I purchased some ovulation sticks although didn't do loads. My app said ovulation day Thursday just gone but I did an ovulation strip on Sunday and it was a very strong positive.. so can someone tell me, with the easy at home ovulation straps. When getting a strong positive, does that mean I ovulated that day? Or the next day?
For context, we DTD Sunday, Monday, Tuesday (all evenings) and skipped Weds, then DTD Thursday.
I'd done an ovulation test weds and the line was really faint.
Just hoping I caught it.

1 more question, I didn't get the ovulation cramps at all this time. Could that mean I didn't ovulate? Would the test have still given a strong line if I wasn't ovulating?

When you get a positive test, you usually ovulate 24-36 hours after. Do you mean the last time you DTD was Thursday, then had a positive test on Sunday? Unfortunately you might have just stopped a bit too soon if that's the case. If you mean you had a positive test on Sunday, then DTD that day then following days you should be okay ☺️

It's possible to have a positive ovulation test and not ovulate (it would be your body gearing up to ovulate but not releasing an egg), so it's useful to track BBT to confirm. Hope that helps!

Thanks for the reply, really helpful :)

Sorry for confusion. The positive ovulation test was 22nd and we DTD 22nd, 23rd, 24th.

Sounds like you've done enough.

You should have caught it! Best of luck 🤞
