Background is that I'm 28 and have had 3 miscarriages - Oct 2012, May 2013 and March 2014. The last pregnancy wasn't planned, I actually married my OH in April. I lost at 12 weeks, 10.5 weeks and 6 weeks.
Since then I have been back on the pill, having a break. I was hospitalised with my first two miscarriages and it put a lot of pressure on my relationship so we both decided to stop trying.
Well, we have now decided, after an 18 month wait, then we are ready to try again. So, I stopped taking my pill earlier this month and had my period 10th-14th September. I downloaded Ovia, the app to track my cycles. I didn't do this before, but it doesn't hurt to log the first day of my last period and stuff, just to see when I'm due to ovulate.
So anyway, been doing the very basic stuff on there, logging CF and how I feel. It said I was due to ovulate the week starting 22nd September. I weighed myself on 21st September and I was 224lbs, my standard weight for the last 18 months.
We DTD 3 times during my ovulation week, every other day and the last green ovulation day was yesterday.
I weighed myself this morning and.... 228.4lbs. I've gained 4.4lbs! My eating hasn't been any different, neither has my exercise. I've actually been busier then normal with chores etc.
Anyone else experienced this? That is the heaviest I've ever been and I'm certainly miffed about it. Any advice from your experiences would be really helpful! Am I bloated? Does ovulation cause water retention? Is it a good sign? Who knows, please help!

Hope you get your rainbow!
How long do you wait to test? I ovulated on 17th day of my cycle, on 26th September and that makes me 4 days post ovulation.
