OPKs and ovulation

Stefanie • TTC baby #1 Married the love of my life 9/10/2017

Just wanted to share with you ladies who have a longer cycle (mine is 40 days), glow hasn’t been taking the longer cycle into account, it predicts my period pretty closely, but my ovulation is always predicted a week before I get my LH surge on my OPKs. So, I’ve been tracking with two other <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.glow.android">fertility apps</a>, and they’re much closer, although it’s hard to tell spot on every time... just thought I’d share in case you’re having trouble conceiving, if you aren’t <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.glow.android">tracking ovulation</a> (I know, I know, charting and such) then you might not be heavily BDing at the right times. The bottom test is from tonight, which is when glow says I ovulated (I didn’t get the LH surge yet so I didn’t).

Ps I’ve been using OPKs since the day after my period ended on 2/8 since I wasn’t sure when I would ovulate, which is why there are many.
