Hi everyone! I'm hoping you guys can weigh in on this subject (either tell me what you think, or share your personal experience).
DH and I are ttc. We miscarried back in November and are ready to try again. Although they are expensive, I have been using the Clearblue Advanced Digital OPK since the day I finished my last period. I ovulated around December 28th-29th. My periods are very regular, and so is my ovulation. We have been trying to conceive for about 6 months now, and I always ovulate around the same time every month.
Anyway, I've been experiencing some symptoms, and I don't really know what to make of them. My breasts are tender (but this comes and goes), I have been feeling nauseous this past week, my cm has been clear/white and wet (sorry- tmi), not dry like it should be since AF is coming in a couple of days, and I have been craving mushrooms like crazy! (I HATE mushrooms). I've taken a couple of HPTs and they have come up negative. This morning I took an ovulation test (I used an opk strip instead of the CB digital) and it was a very strong and clear positive. Within 2 minutes the test line was significantly darker than the control line. What do you guys think? Bump, or no? Anyone else have a similar experience. I know that the only way I'll know if I'm actually pregnant is by waiting it out, but it's always nice to hear what others have to say. Af is due in 2 days, and I haven't had any signs or symptoms that she is on her way, and I'm 10 or 11 dpo. Also, when I was pregnant the first time, I didn't get a BFP until almost 2 weeks after I missed my period. This is why I'm not overly concerned about the BFNs I got this week. Just curious if I can take the very strong positive on my OPK as a good sign. I've attached a picture of my OPK. Test line is the one on top, control line is the one on the bottom.
