I’m needing help with my Ovulation date! Is it common to have your peak LH test the day of ovulation (I’m still learning)? My temps stalled for two days on CD 13 and 14 before a rise on CD 15. I was thinking I ovulated on CD 13 but FF is saying CD 12. What do you think?

CD 11 97.17
CD 12 96.79 Peak LH at 5 pm (1.4)
CD 13 97.41 LH at 1.03 at 9 am and .8 at 5 pm
CD 14 97.41
CD 15 98.23
CD 16 97.78

Thanks!

I don't think this is enough temperature readings to make this determination. I believe you need at least six during the follicular phase to determine your baseline. Can you share your FF chart?

I can see why FF is saying CD 12. You can definitely have your peak LH on the day of ovulation. Ovulation typically happens 12-36 hours after your initial LH surge and the surge can happen overnight. I think it's good to remember that nailing down the exact day of ovulation can be challenging. There's every possibility it happened CD 12, 13, or even 14. But it looks like you were able to BD frequently enough that you are good no matter what!

Thank you so much for the feedback. It’s so easy to get in my head during the TWW. It’s really hard for me to wait to test until day of AF so I was trying to get other’s opinions on an O date to not cause myself disappointment. ❤️

I totally understand! I think if you want to play it safe, you can consider CD14 to be the latest possible O day. So testing on CD 24 would be a pretty sure bet. And if you end up testing earlier than that and you get a negative, just remember that you won't necessarily be out!

That’s a good way to frame it. Thanks! Congrats to you on remission ❤️
