Ovulation Frustration

Sarah

Alright, you majestic, wonderful women. Help a sister out. I’m new to this ttc thing and I’m having some trouble trying to figure out the magical thing called ovulation. Originally, Glow predicted my ovulation would happen on the 8th. I started testing three days prior just in case. I’ve tested every day since the 5th and they’ve all been negative. The test lines have ranged in color. Some were dark (but not quite positive) and others were light.

My periods are typically pretty regular with my cycles lasting between 28 and 31 days. Do any of you ovulate closer to your af? Are any of you as frustrated with trying to determine when you ovulate? Any advice? Currently, I’m feeling a little like this:

Side note: I’m pretty sure I didn’t ovulate prior to testing because I check my cm.
