Normal?

Hi, I’m really new to this and this is my first time using tests. Is it normal to go from such a low result to a high result within a day? Does this result mean I’m ovulating? I’ve read a lot on it but it is confusing and overwhelming to take in. Thanks

Missed peak?

Why am I not falling pregnant?!

My husband and I are struggling to conceive, it’s been over 6 months and nothing. We already have a 3 year old so I know I can get pregnant.
