So I should be entering fertile window.. But I'm not

PC • Mama to Cruz 💙 Kaia 💖 and Shaea to come 💗
I've taken 3 ovulation tests the last couple days to truly mark when I ovulate and all have been negative yet I am on the 2nd day of my window, says Glow. My temperature goes up and down or consistently stays at 97.2 but there is no trend good enough to view spikes in BBT. CM is neither here nor there.. Cycles average 34 days but can go all the way to 42 some months. This is so disheartening.. 2-3rd month TTC, and now Glows notification to me is that I have low fertility. Awesome. If stress pushes AF sometimes, is it strong enough to extend ovulation? Any advice other than with your head down, go tell your doctor?

Usually, you would ovulate on the day before the last day of your fertile window, so if you are on day 3, you may not be ovulating yet. Also, temp spikes after you ovulate (many sites say that once you see that spike, the window of fertility close--literally). When you get a pos. test, you will ovulate within 12-36 hours, then, after that, your temp will spike.

my first time using glow, monitoring bbt and using Opks after 9mo . I ovulated 2 days earlier than glow first predicted, but readjusted the fertile window as logged more info. my bbt spiked about 36h after I got my LH surge. so keep testing and monitoring your opk and hopefully you see the surge soon! good luck

Interesting ok. I always thought BBT spiked the whole fertility window when LH is present. Good to know. Holding out for a positive test then in days to come! TY!

This month I'm trying earlier then what glow says. My % seems low too. Keep tracking. Keep trying! Sending baby making luck your way!

Glow was wrong by 5-7 days for me. Just because glow "says" you should be in your week, doesn't mean that you are. Keep opking. If you don't get a positive ovulation test, then I would maybe call my doc, but me personally I wouldn't call just because an app didn't match what was going on. On another note, may be you are like me and ovulate really early in your cycle.. Good luck.

Glow was wrong for me too! I just kept using OPKs until I got my positive. When I entered it Glow shifted my fertile window.

How long are your cycles typically? I've heard early ovulation if cycles are super short, but not super long like mine. I won't count it out though. On the flip side, is it possible to ovulate RIGHT before AF?
