Hopefully. I’m starting to chart my bbt and cm and will finish using the last of my OPKs to try and figure out what my body is doing. I’m wondering if the 6 years of celibacy and then the sudden leap into regular sex threw my cycle off. The first time we had sex I started my period and it wasn’t due for another week. Who knows.

Right now I’m in the super emotional and cry over everything phase. The week before my period has been that way the last several months though and it’s miserable ? I appreciate the community here. Y’all are all awesome so far ?❤️

You will catch this next time! :)

That’s what I was thinking ?

You may have ovulated a lot earlier.

Ok so I tested on the day I was scheduled to ovulate according to PP and it was negative and has been every day since but I’ve noticed my lines are getting lighter and lighter. Does that indicate that I most likely ovulated early and my levels are going down? My af is due around the 14th (bloody Valentine, yay ?) and my last period started Jan 17th.

I would definitely keep testing. I expected to ovulate on the 24th, according to pink pad, but the ovulation tests showed me I was wrong. I didn't ovulate until the 27th.

I went ahead and got an OPK and tested today and it said I wasn’t close to ovulating. But pink pad says I was supposed to ovulate today. Should I keep testing over the next few days to see if I’m ovulating late?

If I hadn't used opks this month, I would've been 3 days off on my ovulation calculations. I'm glad I used them!

Yes worth it! Pink pad is sometimes way off my ovulation date. Good luck ?

Yes definitely worth it!

Get a 50 pack of wondofo's on Amazon...super cheap. I'm regular like clockwork but OPKs showed me ovulating anywhere from day 15-17. PP app never matched up...it always showed me ovulating on day12-14.

Thanks y’all. I have been really regular the last 5-6 years but before I had my daughter I wasn’t at all. I was never diagnosed with PCOS but I have symptoms of it. I hardly ever had periods until after my first husband left but idk what changed that. I’ve lost 50 pounds in the last few years and have healthier eating and exercising habits so I honestly thought I’d get pregnant right away. I bought PreSeed and have been using it the last few days along with a cup because I’m predicted to ovulate on Tuesday. I do usually have ovulation pain so I kind of know when I ovulate and we plan on bd every day to increase our chances of hitting that window. I never realized before how much work it is to get pregnant ? I’ll try an OPK next month if things don’t pan out this cycle.

Thanks for the comments and advice! ???

Yes definitely worth the money I’m regular but sometimes my o day isn’t the same every month the app is great and it helps me to keep track of my cycles but opk’s definitely help pin point ovulation better than the app. I use the cheap ones from amazon.

I use them even if I’m regular, just to pin point exact day of ovulation and conception (if it would accrue) Best of luk

It's worth it to me!? try it for a few months

I think they’re definitely worth it. Most cycles aren’t exactly the same number of days and this helps you really get in touch with the physical symptoms you’re having with your LH surge when you do ovulate. Plus, if you buy them online you can get a pack of wondfo’s 50 ovulation tests and 20 pregnancy tests for around $20.

If your cycle is irregular or it’s hard to be sure you are having sex at least every other day, then go with OPKs but as newlyweds you probably are good there. Congrats on your marriage. If you are fairly regular and pretty active in the bedroom, you can probably wait a few months or order the inexpensive strips from amazon or eBay and make sure the app is accurate for you. Good luck
