TTC question

I am TTC and got off birth control in the middle of the pack on april 23rd. I spotted for a few days and then got my period april 26th and it ended may 1st. On april 30th i started taking ovulation tests and i have been getting faint 2nd lines up till yesterday an today. Did i ovulate without the test picking it up? Or did i miss ovulation and ovulated during my period. I have been having unprotected sex.

Thanks for all the info. But if the lines are suppose to get darker i dont get why i went from having a line to none. Its so strange. I am TTC a boy so i want to have sex the day of ovulation. Today i started to get a watery discharge to maybe its comming soon. Its not stretchy like egg whites it just clear and thin like water. I hoping that means something. Thanks for you help.

There is usually always a second line, you can't ovulate during your period. Cycles are counted from day 1 being the first day of your period, until the day before your next period. So if your cycle is 28 days long, you'll be ovulating about day 14 (usually) You should start taking OPK's once (twice if you can afford it) a day between 2-8pm starting the day after you stop your period. Some women ovulate earlier, some ovulate later in their cycle, so your ovulation will be unique to you. I get lines that gradually get darker and darker every day until the day I ovulate, some women don't, some women just get the solid positive the day they ovulate. In order for it to be positive it has to be as dark as or darker than the control line, you should have sex everyday for 3-4 days when you get a positive. It's best to have sex every other night throughout the month after your period stops, until after you know you've ovulated! Good luck hun!
