Hello everyone!

Any advice for best test for ovulation? I'm currently using the Flo app which obviously can't test and isn't accurate but I like to track everything

I use the Premom app with the easy@home strips, it’s fairly spot on for when my periods due but the last month I’ve used the clearblue & it matched up perfectly with the easy@home.

I’m not sure about the sticky discharge, I’d def keep an eye and go see your GP if you’re concerned.

I used the clear blue digis - I found it much easier to know without having to guess on the cheap lines - but saying that I did still use cheap ones to make sure the peak I had, was my peak.

If you don’t want to use OPK’s yet, you could try and have sex every other day, making a note of your cervical mucas/discharge. When it becomes slippery and wet, it means you’re fertile (becomes easier for the sperm to swim in rather than thick which doesn’t help)

deffo keep in mind the apps only guess, whereas an OPK etc is measuring something from your body

I do this too, and it seems pretty spot on for me too!

good luck, sounds like a lot of positive symptoms for some of you this month 🤍

This is probs very TMI, but does anyone pay attention to their cervix position/texture when checking for CM? I reckon I'm 8dpo and it seems higher than usual and softer.. I am definitely clutching at straws here so don't judge hahah!!

I do but I don’t check manually - equally TMI but I can tell when mine is lower because sex is ouch

Thanks so much for your lovely reply. I know it was the right decision for her, it just hurts.

I’m currently in my 2WW about 3/4 dpo - I hope everyone’s waiting time is going quickly!

I don't know what you're clutching at Fishsticks, but it certainly ain't straws I wouldn't know my cervix if it slapped me! I'm not going up there, and I doubt my poundshop vibrator could reach either I seriously hope it's a good thing in your case . Jeez, and I thought a cup was a bit risqué

I’ve got a romantic weekend away Friday/Saturday and I’m just hoping it’s ovulation time Currently day 13, CB was a flashing smiley this morning, but the cheapies are still looking low. Usually ovulate between CD 12 and 17, just hoping I don’t get a peak tomorrow because we won’t have time to have sex before Friday.

I did a test this morning, purely to start ruling it out so I can drink and I got a squinty second line?! And I got pale pink spotting?! I’m 11DPO

I took a digital test and it was positive so I’m taking this as my BFP. I’m in shock because I’ve been prepared by doctors for years to anticipate struggles with falling pregnant due to my endo and I’m so lucky to have ovulated only 3 weeks off the pill.

So just some stats - I ovulated on CD20, I got BFNs on 8 and 9DPO and currently I just have very sensitive boobs and cramps. I got a touch of pale pink spotting but that’s it. I’ll lurk around on this thread a bit longer since I’m nervous about it sticking and just a bit nervy in general but fingers crossed!!

Congratulations!

I woke up to my ‘peak’ on CB, and a fairly dark second line on the strip. Would you count this as positive or keep testing to see if it gets darker? The app still says ‘low’. So annoyed because we won’t get chance for sex today I don’t think!

I would keep testing, it's not quite as dark as the control line yet. Although, I'm not sure how the CB tests work in comparison.

@Louk hahaha I feel like I'm getting all delusional if I'm honest. I hope I'm not Meredith Grey with a hostile uterus.... GROW BABY GROW.

Took a test - BFN but if I am 9dpo then I knowwwww it's still early. I just want to know if my head is making up symptoms or if they're actually real.

My mother-in-law is selling her house to move away (we live on an island) and houses are taking forever to go through at the moment... but I want to give her something to stay. We've spoken about possibly TTC, but we don't want to actively tell her bcus that's weird. I guess that's why I'm feeling the pressure.
