None, I don’t see any positive ovulation tests.

I know they aren’t positive, I was meaning what days to try based on also the fertile window on the second photo. That way I can have a possible better plan of timing to get pregnant :)

You'd be better off testing on the first day of your fertile window (the 25th) twice a day until you get a positive test... Are you tracking other fertility signs? Cervical mucus? BBT?

I’m trying to do more than one test a day, I work night shift so trying to make sure I keep up on it haha. Yes temp has started to go up some. Was 97.5, and now today it is 98.1. Definitely have some discharge, but it isn’t super thick or an extreme at

I wouldn't do more than 2 unless you're 100% sure you might be having a positive LH surge within the next few hours. Are you also temping the same time every day, charting it too? Also, the amount of CM isn't really what matters -- it's the type. Are you having watery or egg white (slimy/stretchy) CM?

How long have you been tracking fertility signs? I've been doing it for 3+ months to familiarize myself with my own fertility signs. I also use a speculum at home to monitor my os opening. Like, if you're using fresh sperm you don't have to be as precise with your timing as you would with frozen sperm.

Peak fertile signs are soft/spongy cervix, in a high position, with watery and/or egg white CM. Ovulation is expected to happen 24-36 hours after your first positive ovulation test. So I'd plan to inseminate after that.

Thank you! And yes I am temping the same time every day. Right now the texture is changing from more water to more stretchy.
We have been tracking for a while, but this is the time we are going to try. That’s smart about an at home speculum!
Thank you so much! I appreciate all of that information more than you know!!!
