Will I ever ovulate!?

TTC while breastfeeding

Does a faint line on ovulation test mean I am ovulating or no? I’m 11 months postpartum and don’t have a period yet. Trying to see if I’m even ovulating.

Cervical Checks

Has anyone had a cervical check yet? I'm 36 weeks and my doctor does a weekly cervical check starting tomorrow. I'm nervous.. is it painful? Does it feel much different from the annual routine when they feel your ovaries? Is anyone rejecting cervical checks until labor?
