Premom stumped at first stage

Hi

I brought some ovulation tests. Have downloaded the app and don't even know what dates to put for my last period.

I think I should put 1st February - makes me day 57. This was a proper what I would class "normal period for me"

Or do I put 20th March - where I spotted lightly for about 4 days.

Is it basically pointless doing ovulation tests as I cannot be certain what or when my LMP was?

So confused already!

😬

Hey, It’s not pointless to do ovulation tests. You won’t get a peak unless you’re having an LH surge, so it’s good to know as you can dtd.

as for when to put last menstrual period, I’d put 1st feb. Then you can add on the calendar itself symptoms of spotting those days you spotted.

Thank you so much for you post! That's really helpful.
