Code have you not had a +opk since? My dh wasn't anywhere near as excited as I was to see it.

How do you know if you've not ovulated?

I still get positive opks, but my progesterone was really low. I think my body gears up nicely to ov, then just doesn't release the eggs. I know as I'm Scottish, I'm meant to be frugal but this takes the biscuit.

Peonie in normal cases after you ovulate your cm will dry up immediately. If you temp, you'll get a temp spike with elevated temps for 3 days. If you track, you'll normally notice some signs - I get spots along my jaw line, sore boobs and I get grouchy. Like Oscar the Grouch only without the bin.

Tea do you check ov in other ways? I used to temp but never got any sign of ov.

Code lol at bring frugal, not good that your progesterone was low, was it borderline or quite low? I get that checked in a week.

I used to temp but just found it irritating. Plus I think I sleep with my mouth open and I'm always freezing as OH is a swine for nicking the duvet lol.

Just use opks and cm now.

Part Mouse, sorry but if you've had trigger shot ov test will show positive the same way it will if you are pregnant I believe, don't wish to disappoint :-(

Lisa I did fear that was the case, I don't have any ewcm either but then I never do anyway.

Its supposed to be 30 to confirm ov and mine was 18, so not good news.

In good news DH did his second SA yesterday so waiting for the results of both. He doesn't seem remotely bothered about the results.

There's something odd about sitting in a waiting room while your husband's down the hall *ahem* producing a sample Our lady tests aren't very dignified, but on balance I'm glad it's not me who's required to achieve orgasm in a clinic on my own!
