I use a combination of the Easy@Home ones and Clearblue Digital. The CB ones are more expensive and tend to give me a peak a day before E@H, but are much easier to read as there’s no room for interpretation with them.

I thought I would maybe start properly tracking my ovulation rather than through an app, does anyone have any recommendations for ovulation kits / straps?
This is currently me. I've not taken any opks this cycle and it's CD16.I am feeling really torn today. I stopped tracking this month because my ovulation tests were just getting dark then light every couple of days with no actual ovulation and it’s exhausting. I’m guessing as it’s my first cycle after my loss that’s to be expected.
Now I just feel guilty for not trying this month, like well I clearly can’t want it that badly if I can’t be bothered to keep tracking. I’m CD 28 now and I don’t think I’ve ovulated yet but I really have no idea.
Did any of you stop tracking and then feel bad about it? It’s like I know I should just let myself relax but I feel so guilty for doing so.
Sorry for the ramble, just such an emotional rollercoaster.
I think during TTC/infertility, you need to do everything you can to protect your heart. I missed lots of ‘baby’ moments with friends and family. They understood my reasoning and if they didn’t then tough xxHas anyone been invited to a baby shower while ttc? One of my friends has one in a couple of months time and I just can’t think of anything worse right now but I feel bad for bailing. She’s aware of my TTC struggles so I think she would understand but I just feel so bad! I missed her hen do a couple of weeks ago too but that was for other reasons (my MIL is very unwell). I just don’t know whether I need to suck it up and go or if I send her a message explaining how I feel. What would you guys do? Xx
I agree. I once had someone tell me 13 months isn’t a long time to ttc. Said by a person who fell on the pill twice..I find it so frustrating when people who have never ttc add in their 2 pence. I saw a friend today who’s had 2 healthy pregnancies and has never even tried to get pregnant comment that people shouldn’t “ttc” and track as it causes the body stress and people should just enjoy it and let it happen. How can you really pass comment when you’ve never had to do it? It’s also stressful when you want to get pregnant and can’t, so it’s stressful either way!!
Don’t be too hard on yourself and put too much pressure on yourself. You’ve been through a lot, you have to do what’s right for youI am feeling really torn today.

Thank you so much, ordered some of those so hopefully we will see where we are at xI use a combination of the Easy@Home ones and Clearblue Digital.

I started my current job a few months ago. I work by myself but employed by an agency, I've met the person who runs the agency twice and the second time she asked me if I'd have more children! She then told me she wouldn't as she hates being pregnant. Do people actually think before they speak?Met some friends I haven’t seen in a few years & got asked “would I go again?” I ignored it the first time but got asked a second time so I just brushed it off to say “dunno, sure see what happens” as I didn’t want to ruin a nice lunch by telling to mind her own effing business
why do people think this is ok? Or is just the people who clearly never had any difficulty conceiving. So annoying!
Hey fish sticks, you can indeed peak without ovulating - the best way to confirm ovulation has happened is through temping as your temp rise confirms you have indeed ovulated.Hello everyone, I have a question!
If you have an LH peak, does that mean you're guaranteed to ovulate or can you have an LH peak without ovulating??
