| Am I EVER going to ovulate? Currently on CD25. At around CD14 I seemed to be about to ovulate. Eggwhite. Bad cramps. Almost, almost positive OPKs but not quite. Then the EW disappears and am back to creamy. No cramps. Nothing at all.
Yesterday? Almost, almost positive OPK. Eggwhite. Cramps. Today? Dark line on OPK but lighter than yesterday. Eggwhite gone. No cramps. Back to creamy CM.
I have really, really no idea what is going on but its doing my nut in. Am I ever going to ovulate or simply give up trying and get AF? Last cycle I ovulated on CD13. I seem to be showing very mixed signs right about now.
Have also ran out of OPKs because its been such a stupid sodding month.  | | | | Status: Offline

| I have not ovulated unfortunately. Have been loosely temping and am practically sub zero. I just keep almost ovulating and then nothing happens.
Have had a fair few anovulatory cycles in my time. I just hoped this wasn't one. I thought I had ovulated earlier on in the month. The cramps were bad, the symptoms were all there but then nothing happened. No positive test, no temp shift.
Was sure it was going to be darker today as the one I did last night was what I normally get the day before it turns positive. Did two today, both clearly negative.
Dunno what's going on. I can't even BD tonight as the other half is playing football | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling: | Maybe try one of those digi ones next cycle, no line interpretation needed..those opk's can be a bit of a pain, we all know this
Have a read on here as well, just to double check.. http://www.peeonastick.com/ Good luck, and chin up, chicken! Omi xxx |

| I am kind of tight, Omi. I realise this makes me a bad person but I cannot really justify buying one for loads of money when I get loads for next to nothing. I DO get positive OPKs. I get them most months. This month? Well, I don't know what's going on. Perhaps in a week's time I will try to ovulate again and this will be a 50 day cycle. It seems to be gearing up that way.
I cannot even justify buying myself a Clearblue Digi because I keep thinking of other fun things I can spend the money on. I am terrible. | | | | Status: Offline

Dont feel bad! ive never actually bought one myself  I just know from experience those opk suckers can be a b**ch and many on here advocate using digi's- i wouldnt buy one either, ever, tbh.. how's that for bad? well, i dont think its bad  I have to save the pennies (or in this case, £) for a bfp-no?  ............(i only use the cbfm now)
Have you spoken to your doc? seems weird that you would have this big a fluctuation in cycle-lenght and non-ovulatory cycles intermittently..
hm, im no expert (although i like to think so, lol) but go and have a chat, see what they say..unless you;re not worried and just fed up being messed about- and oh, yes, my friend, ive been there, havent we all!!
Big  , Omi xxx |

| Yes have spoken to doc. Along with other symptoms she suspects Endometriosis (ugh) so have Gyno appointment on 22nd July. Hormonally I am fine.
I just can't spend that much money on something when I can get it for a fiver. They do work. Just, not this month.
Its freaking me out, now. All these signs and yet, nothing. All these almosts and still nothing.
Stupid body, I have here. | | | | Status: Offline
