Am I ovulating today?

Question

Hi! I’m doing a test month before we start trying - any help understanding this? Day 13 was pretty dark but not quite the same as the line now today is light again - am I ovulating today? I do have some cramps & cervical position pretty high!

Answer

My tests just looked like this. Apps said I was set to ovulate in Sunday. I had positive OPKs Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning. Yesterday it was lighter and I feel like I ovulated yesterday. My friend told me the tests are to detect the surge before ovulation, so when I actually ovulated I wouldn’t have a positive OPK because the surge happened. I don’t know. I’m new to this too and am doing the same thing you are.

Answer

Day 13 was likely positive which would make day 14 ovulation day.

Answer

It honestly looks like you ovulated on day 13. Keep testing and if doesn't get dark again, then I guess you can assume you ovulated that day. Some women get different lightness/darkness of tests.
