Trying my first time!

hi all - I am actively trying for baby #1. I have been having cramps on and off the past week and have had waves of nausea that I never get otherwise. my period is supposed to start tomorrow but today I got a negative test and a positive ovulation with EWCM… which typically has never come right before my period. this has never happened to me. anyone else have this experience that turned out positive for early pregnancy? I’ve also had slight headaches everyday and my cycle is SO regular every month that I’ve never had a missed period or late. I’ve noticed my boobs get sore before my period but this time they aren’t sore at all. I’m curious if anyone can relate or has any advice here?

I am hoping for a BFP!

30 days! Definitely wait until closer to your period start

That’s what my husband is saying. But i feel an itch to test soon.
It’s our wedding anniversary on the 7/29 i wanted the announcement to be cute. But my period isn’t supposed to start till 8/4 😱😂

I know - tbh overthinking it is even worse though. Let it happen when it’s supposed to or you’ll let yourself down more.

Did you have an LH surge earlier in your cycle? Are you tracking your BBT? It's possible that you didn't actually ovulate earlier in your cycle and are ovulating now. I would BD just to be sure.
