Hooray - I finally managed to pinpoint ovulation. I bought a Maybe Baby saliva tester last month, and was using it around the time I thought I would be ovulating and nothing. I tested today and I saw the fern shapes - yay!
I am surprised that on a 28 day cycle though, that I am ovulating on day 22. I guess now I know my $100 investment works now, so I'll be able to see what is normal for me in the coming months. |

Hey Petal great news that your new toy works  but if that is right and your cycle is 28 days then your Luteal Phase is way to short to sustain a pregnancy. Are you taking Vitamin B6? Would suggest you do...my LP is also too short ..last month was nine days B6 is supposed to help correct that..well FX it does!-------------

Just thought I would warn you that the MBs dont work for everyone, I have one but it gives me random readings all the time, even different readings in the same day...
It does work for some, so Im not saying its not working for you, but I just wouldnt use it to pin point ov as I dont think its the most reliable for pin pointing ov.. GL and I hope your UTD soon!! -------------

Good stuff posting your results as it makes it easier for women to understand that you dont always ovulate on day 14 let alone a few days later.... which can make it hard to TTC
