Apps have different ovulation days

I’ve started temping again in addition to doing easy @ home ovulation strips. The easy @ home app predicts my ovulation to be 2 days before the natural cycles app.

TTC is hard enough, adding two days to it is sooo much. And according to one app, we didn’t baby dance on ovulation day but the other we did. I’m so confused.

Any insight into which app is more accurate? Natural cycles just says an LH test is positive or negative and doesn’t take into account the LG level. However, it is FDA approved.

Help please? I’m 5 DPO. I hope I’m pregnant and don’t have to worry but this is our first cycle trying after a loss so I’m still looking for some help.

Thank you!

Was you adding your lh test to the apps? Like if it’s a peak did you add that. I would go with the day you got a peak on lh test and then that’s how many dpo you are from then. I used the app Premom and also did bbt to help get pregnant.

yes and based on the pre mom ovulation would be the accurate one. I’ve been using that app for months and just started with natural cycles but my temp spiked today which is days after ovulation according to pre mom. Idk if that’s normal for some people to take a while for temp to rise?

with mine it spiked 3-4 days after ovulation and I got pregnant.

I'm so not meant to be a mother.

My kids won't listen to me get into stuff when they know they aren't supposed to. Telling me no all the time. Only listen to their dad. Laughs when I correct them. I spend most of my time yelling at them because they don't want to listen to me at all. My husband said that I shouldn't have kids. And I am believing him on it. I was never meant to be a mother now. I won't hurt my kids I just want to disappear and make everyone else's lives better without me.

One and done… or not?

32ftm. I’m starting to feel so much pressure to have another baby soon as I wean from breastfeeding so they can be close in age and be friends, but I don’t feel ready for pregnancy and newborn trenches again 😭 my husband and I are all we’ve got. Having just one baby without a village has been really tough. Am I being unrealistic wanting another one soon?

Tests

So I had a blood test at the drs bc I keep getting positive tests when the blood test was negative what could this mean? Hubby says the tests are negative and said he can’t see anything. Negative image down below.

Am I pregnant?

I lightly spotted almost 5 days ago, which is not common for me before my period.
My period was supposed to come today. I should have tested in the morning but its 5:30pm.
Is there a second line??

Anyone have this happen before?

We were not trying to conceive, used protection and had sex on week 2 of my cycle (accidentally on my peak ovulation day). Week 3 we had Flu A. Week 4 my period did not come (it’s very regular). I tested and it was negative (2 different brands).
What should have been week 2 of my next cycle (now 6 weeks post last period), I had light red/ pink spotting for one day when I wiped. The following week, I tested again, still negative, but this time almost all the dye was in the negative space, which I’ve never seen happen before. The area where it shows one horizontal line for negative and a plus sign for positive, the horizontal line was super faded at the 3 minute mark, and the negative vertical line in the next window was VERY dark. Now I’m on week 8 of all this, period did not show up yesterday. Nothing in my life has changed (no additional stress, no other illness, no changes in diet or exercise, etc).

Has anyone gone through this and NOT been pregnant? I’m super nervous as we thought we were done having kids.

PS. I know I should go get a blood test, does anyone know if urgent care will do that? I’m past being convinced by a pee test.
