Ovulation test confusion - Page 3

MIKAoKendra · Mar 23rd, 2012, 18:02 PM

Daejin,

Listen, I've been on and off trying for 3 years! You can imagine how frustrated I am!!

Your very early in the stages. Trust me it will happen!!

We haven't use ovulation tests until last month because we in the stages of really wanting one now.

The whole time I thought I was ovulating I wasn't!! I was close but we always missed it when we were BD'ing. YOu also have to keep in mind to check your mucus (I know TMI) but it's true. Your mucus tells you alot and it should be the consistency of egg whites. If you really want it that bad you should BD every other day no matter what! and check your ovulation every and twice a day when you think your ovulating.

Don't lose hope! It will happen! Promise!!

HOpe this helped!

Do you mean my cm has to br clear and sticky? i cant get my brain afound when the right time is to do it so i think we will try every other day so there will.be more of a chance..

My brothers dog showed signs that his fiance was pregnant by laying on her tummy and blocking it from my.brothrr, she took a test today and it was BFP... the dog has done the same with me tonight so i took a test and it was BFN

Daejin hon I know it is hard but you have to relax. Stressing out will only contribute to causing issues with your cycle itself.
Don't give up hope. It is really early stages. It is VERY normal for a normal healthy couple to take up to a year to conceive, so when you remember that, you don't need to be so worried.

I strongly agree with the ladies who suggested to test at least twice a day. You don't necessarily have to ovulate on the same day every month, and if you are off by a few days, it's not something to worry about. Just keep using OPKs ( you can use cheap ones such as Wondfo from Amazon) and try twice a day.
You'll see that LH surge soon enough we promise!

I'm trying not to stress out but it's really hard, atm i'm just trying to take my heart out of it, i think everyone is right when you guys said that getting too stressed about it isn't doing me any good.

I havent taken any ovulation tests since that last one, granted the very last one i took the second line was darker than the others but not equal or darker than the control line so i've given up on those completely... pain in my butt they are, i also read that they dont always work for people - knowing me i am one of those people lol

I think that yesterday i had OVPains because where my ovaries are there was pain so im guessig ovulation pain, i also BDed that day so all is good, I hope that this comes true but i'm now not putting all my eggs in one basket, i think maybe either i'm getting my head around it of just losing hope fast

If the last one you took was darker than the others, then that would mean they should keep getting darker until its a positive.

You can sign up with Fertility Friend.com and they have a really helpful and informative Charting Course. It explains all about cervical mucus, opks, ovulation and etc. It helped clear up a lot of confusion for me.
