Newbie alert!

Hey!! So this is our second month properly ttc. Both months now I’ve had no luck with the ovulation predictor sticks (they seem to consistently show the same faint line) so just praying that I am actually ovulating and just doing something wrong! After entering my last few cycles into the app I was shocked at how late it predicted my period to be. I thought it would be around today and I have just started cramping. Do you all find the calendar to be fairly accurate? Does this mean I’m out this month? Is it better to bd the day before ovulation or on the day? Sorry for all the questions. Sending you all loads of baby dust and praying you get your wish! 🤞🏻🧡
