    I took clomid for swaying purposes and you will ovulate on it! Stop using the opks they aren't worth all the worry and panic just keep attempting every 4 days and your sure to get a good attempt in. hows the diet going?

    Hugs englishdame, even with those dual hormone clearblue it would only give me a high reading never the peak reading! Don't beat yourself up! Are you temping? It just let you see that you are ovulating, and so far has let me know when af is approaching. Hoping this month it will tell me we finally caught our egg instead. We are all in this swaying for a girl together. I only have one more dose of clomid left it stinks so really hoping we just conceive this month, but who knows.

    Thanks mommy2apples, I only have one more dose of clomid too but if I don't fall this month I'm not sure whether to use it next month as if there's another reason I'm not ovulating like I've lost too much weight then I don't want to waste the clomid!
    I'm not temping I wouldn't have a clue where to start tbh! Is it too late to start now?

    Ovulation on clomid

    Ideally most do the vaginally, because it's more accurate. So would start when you are only spotting on your af and take it every morning at the same time.
    Set an alarm so you can take it at the same time. Even if it's way before you wake up, then you can go back to sleep, that's what I do most times after temping. The idea is to have at least three hours of uninterrupted sleep, sometimes I don't get even 1hr of uninterrupted sleep. It'll still give you a baseline and idea of if you are ovulating or not. I mean you could start now. I started in the middle of a cycle my first time.
    You will have to ask Atomic her take about the clomid or even xxhubby is great for knowing about clomid. It's definitely the clomid keeping us from getting an accurate reading on our opks.

    Hi English dame the clomid still stays in your system and works the month after you have taken it so don't take clomid for your next cycle use it the following one and it means you will get the benefit of using it if you don't get a bfp first cycle. That's what I'll be doing. Have you lost much weight? Try to stay at a good weight where your cycles won't be effected it's better long term because you don't want to start having to add blue friendly things to your diet.
    Try not to stress over ovulating just keep attempting every 4 days and hopefully you are lucky and catch the egg! Good luck.

    Feel your pain ladies!

    I've bought loads of boxes of OPKs and found it really hard to get a positive on the simple stick ones until I discovered I never get a positive anytime other than the urine after my first morning Urine with the simple stick ones and even then I have to really restrict my fluid intake (no coffee too cos that makes you want to oee) and I have to hold my pee for at least three hours
    Never got a positive or even dark line aftermidday

    Last cycle I was on femara and before that I was on clomid and found that they definitely do mess up the cycle a bit.

    With the dual hormone OPKs - if you're using clearblue brand,
    It states that you must use the first morning urine (or after yourlongest sleep)
    I've also read comments that for a lot of people, peeing on the stick doesn't work, it only worked for them if they peed in a container and dipped the strip in.
    Hope this helps cos I've told atomic before that OPKs are the bane of my life but the dual hormone one has been good so far

    Btw... atomic also told me and you might see some of her posts that temping isn't ideal for girl sway cos all that stressing about taking temp can undermine your sway
    Plus if you have young kids like I do who like to come into your room in the middle of rhe Nighr which means disrupted sleep, that changes your basal body temp
    Just some food for thought...
    fingers crossed for all of us [emoji847]

    Ovulation on clomid

    Englishdame I want to tell you that today I have also negative. I'll keep using opks and write you when I will have a positive. Btw, I always have positive but it usually is about cd17-19.
    Chiengr, I agree it could be stressful. Although, I am temping because I have to know if I Oed and if my LP is not too short.

    I just wanted to chime in an add my experience with Clomid and opks.

    While opks did work for me on Clomid, I know several people where opks didn't work at all to detect their surge or they stopped testing too soon and missed their surge.

    What I did, and recommend, is to BD either E3D or E4D all cycle long. If you chart, you can stop BDing once you have confirmed with 3 high temps in a row that ovulation has occurred.

    Hang in there! This TTCing business is hard! 🤞🏻you all get your BFPs soon!!
