Please help

Hello ladies, really hoping you can help as I can't get it off my mind. !

I sadly Miscarried my first baby in August. Been doing OPK since October and for November and December I got a positive on CD19 and had 33/34 day cycles. This month however it looks like I nearly got a positive on CD14 but it wasn't as positive as my normal positives! I've attached a photo - it's the forth One down and that's about 11pm. The 5th one is the next morning. It would've been almost a week earlier than normal. I've kept doing my OPKs and on CD 21 today and no positive in sight.

If you were to guess, would you say I ovulated around CD14 or am yet to?!

Thank you so much for reading xx

So sorry about your miscarriage.

If thats the only surge you get this cycle then I'd say yes you could have ovulated then. Are you tracking CM? That will give you more info.

Yes and it was there around that date but has dried up last few days. I don't normally get too much but started using maca root this month and noticed an increase last week. I did also do a clear blue digital (not the advanced) and that showed a negative... are they not as sensitive as the IC one-step ones? If they are as sensitive then thinking I can't have ovulated!

So frustrated that I don't know what's going on with my body. Really thought I was getting a regular cycle - it can't be normal to ovulate a week early can it? Gunna have to start DTD throughout not just the week before ovulation as I've probably missed it this month now as only did it on CD11 and 14 before that potential positive!

Thank you so much for the reply xx

Are you tracking your temps with the OPKS?

 

[Emma1989]

No I haven't done that yet. I guess I'm worried if I start doing things like that I'll become even more obsessed than I already am but maybe it'd actually give me some piece of mind as I'd know for sure. X

I would highly recommend temping it just helps you to pin point exact day of OV.

A quick google suggests that Maca makes you ovulate early. Might be the reason. You could keep testing just in case. xx

Also there's defiinitely a surge in your tests. Maybe it's not strong enough for a clear blue but I'd say it's a surge and could have been ovulation.
