Pregnancy tests, ovulation and ovulation tests
Confusing ovulation test
I'm using ovulation tests for the first time this month for our first baby.
I have a fairly irregular cycle and usually ovulate quite late.
I started on cycle day 18 and on CD 20 I saw a faint line. But on CD 22 (yesterday) the line was much stronger; both were equally purple. I thought I had ovulated on CD 20, but I think it was more likely yesterday. I also had some lower abdominal pain and bloating. It could be my ovulation. I just took another test, but it's not as clear as yesterday's.
Here's a photo:
I found it confusing because on CD 21 there was hardly any line left. Did I do something wrong that day or something? What do you think, did I ovulate on CD 22?

Jane, did you test the same times? -

The times are on the tests, Nancy.
I think you should consider yesterday's one as a positive ovulation test. That's the clearest one.
So your egg will come out between 24 and 48 hours after that test. -

Oh oops... sorry.. I only looked at the dashes

The one from yesterday is definitely positive. Your little one is on the way -

Okay. I find it exciting. We definitely did some cleaning on days 16 and 20, 21, 22. So after those 48 hours following the positive day, no more cleaning is needed, right? -

Hacking away is always an option, haha. But I'd definitely see yesterday's as positive. Maybe test a few more days just to be sure. Now let's hope it's a hit! -

Today the line was indeed less visible. So I think I already got my positive on that one day. Now just waiting to see if the cleaning did the trick!
