Hey ladies, I’ve been using cb opks I haven’t got a positive but I did have signs of ovulation with a temp shift this morning. Anyone else ovulate without positive opk?

Im actually thinking that has happened to me. I got very discouraged by the miscarriage and maybe I ovulated in the short time I stopped doing opks. Honestly dh and I really want a third so I picked back up with testing rather quickly so I wonder if I ovulated without a positive opk. Good luck!

Wow that's a nice clear positive, congratulations, do you think your doctor will do betas?

Thanks! I hope this baby sticks. I feel so hesitant to believe the tests after October.
Yea, I’ll ask her to run a beta number.

@Jess0685 yea we all good here, didn't no you could do that lol ill have to definitely try that one if I can find how to xx

@HalfricanMa fingers crossed the doc does betas for you xx

I feel like i can’t trust wondfo. It looks like another line that didnt go all the way across. This is how it dried. It was an hour hold.
I’m gonna run to the store for other brands tonight. Although other brands also showed positive in October also.
I’ll test again either in the morning or give it 48 hours.

Fingers crossed for you! Maybe try a well known brand like frer or clearblue? Pricey but maybe best?

@HalfricanMa wounder why they keep doing that as I was looking at tests for myself I saw these ones and I thought of you, I didn't want to purchase them for this reason, as already said get a well known brand and go from there but definitely go back to docs about it xx

Afm we tried dtd but he couldn't stay up and as I was feeling some twinges in my ovary area I thought I may be ovulating, it is now 00:09 and I'm up for work in 4 hours (work in greggs) so need to switch off but can't lol xx

I didn’t either. I asked in a local group where Santa was visiting this year and got some replies of garden centres and shopping centres but also a photographer. I didn’t fancy waiting in line in a busy shopping centre so booked today’s session with the photographer.

We also did a 1st birthday cake smash which, gosh. Was so stressful. We had four attempts and on the fourth ‘go’ we had to just let him play with toys, he really wasn’t happy with a strange person. So we were terrified of today but he wasn’t happy, wasn’t sad, wasn’t crying for a whole minute until he looked at Santa. Wow has he got some lungs on him.

I would definitely look into local photographers who offer the service because she was lovely and had a great backdrop and Santa. I am itching to get the photos back. Haha.

@Jess068going to have a look around im wanting a proper photo done with them all if i can and if they all stay still xx

Omg yay..Congrats again. Weird how the test line isn't a full line. Just a heads up don't lay the opk near the hpt it will turn it the hpt positive. Also I'd dip hpt in a separate sample to make sure the ovulation test doesn't mess with the results. I've been testing for years and have never had half lines like yours. Seems like that happens a lot for you when testing. I agree get a cb or frer to confirm. Good luck.

Hope this baby sticks praying for you!

Didn't you say they did a ultrasound for ovulation.? How long has it been since that? Sorry I can't remember.

Afm , af should be done tomorrow. Been a rough one for sure. Fx for a Dec miracle.

 

[NightFlower]

@HalfricanMa got to thinking after I posted and with the half line you got a digital test will show positive. but I'd give your doc a call and get blood work so they can monitor the numbers going up ect. With what happened last month . I'm sure they'd get you right in.
Good luck sweetheart ❤

 

[HalfricanMa]

Thanks for sharing @NightFlower. I remember other ladies having issues testing both lh & hcg at the same time.
Bfn for me this morning.

 

[3boys]

That’s so strange. Was the line on the clear blue within the time frame?

No, that was about 20 minutes. I tend to get half lines even with ones that dont get tested at the same time as opks. It’s so messed up! But i remember someone recently with a bfp had that also. Anyone remember who? Was it @elencor ?

 

[mummyyshearer]

I would test again in 48hrs see if anything appears maybee

 

[gigglebox]

@halfrican I'd toss the wondfo's and contact the company. Maybe you can get a refund, or at least some replacements
