Ovulation?

Hi all! I’ve just started my 2nd period since having my little boy a whole 16 months ago. My periods were irregular for years and because of this struggled to conceive after trying for about 3.5 years. When he was born in Jan 2023 I didn’t have any periods until they randomly came back in April last month! After my last period ended I tested with ovulation strips every day from cycle day 8 (a day or so after my period finished) to cycle day 27 which was the morning of the day I got my period (period came in the afternoon) I didn’t get even close to a positive ovulation test during this time. I thought if you’d got a period it means you’ve ovulated? Could I somehow have missed this? What have I done wrong?🤣 Any info would be great. Pics in comments to show tests throughout my cycle.

Hi Maybe you missed your peak. When I get it, it’s not around for long. I read that it’s best to test around same time each day and twice a day. Maybe you could try that next cycle.

I expected to see my peak creep up over the days like it did pre 1st baby, I didn’t realise I could go from such a weak/low ovulation result to peak all in the same day and then back down again the following morning🤣 thanks lovely

Yeah I think there's too long between your tests, you didn't test for 48 hours at one point. I would aim for twice a day and then add in a third when you see the tests start to change
