Day 21 progesterone

I’ve just had my day 21 progesterone results back and they are supposed to be higher than 30nmol/l to confirm ovulation and mine was only 16nmol. Does anyone have experience with success? I’m so disappointed.

Am I imagining things?(more photos in comments)

So we’ve been trying for another baby for 18 months, got pregnant once and lost the baby at 9 weeks. The next couple of months we’ve decided to stop trying as my husband doesn’t want a July or August baby😂🙄 However… I’ve just done this test as my period is a day late and I swear I see a second line?

Evap line?

I did a test the day after my period was meant to come and it was negative. For some reason I went back and checked on the test hours later and it had a second pinkish line. Is this an evaporation line or could it be a positive? Also, I tested two days prior and it was negative.

Advise

How to I politely ask in laws and parents etc to give us a few days to ourselves once the baby has arrived? I'm struggling and worrying of what their reactions will be even though I'm quite entitled to ask for some space.

Negative?

I’m 9DPO. Can anyone see a line? I don’t think I can. I have a feeling I’m out this month because I got my last positive at 9DPO
