Alex you are like fine wine! You get more beautiful every year! It’s so surreal seeing Cassidy on camera, I know this sounds crazy but in a big way she restores my faith. I prayed and prayed for your family and when she was born I was reminded of God’s faithfulness. It makes my heart happy every time I see her, a walking/living/breathing answer to so many prayers. 🥰

[@leisabrady5384]

Thanks Alex love this. I’m 56 have PCOS and endometriosis. Was told I would never fall pregnant. I had a injection of Depo provera to stop my period due to pain. Hadn’t had a period for 3 years and fell pregnant aged 30. All my Drs And gynaecologists were shocked. Totally a miracle pregnancy. Had horrific pregnancy but delivered a healthy girl who is now 25. I have never understood how to check to see if you ovulate. Thankyou so much for this so educational and so well demonstrated. Can’t wait to see your journey of baby no 4.

Please keep them up, they’re encouraging and so Informative! 💕☺️

[@brookheim3965]

Not here to get pregnant but I stopped taking my birth control a few weeks ago. I was under the impression I was ovulating when i stopped taking the pills for that week before I got my period but after learning about my cycle and planning to track it naturally I found out I was very wrong…. I was on the pill for about 7 years I believe. I’m 23 now, I felt like the pills were starting to effect my body so me and my boyfriend agreed I should stop. I had to re-educate myself on how a cycle works and I’ve been taking ovulation stick tests regularly. I’m about 3 weeks in now and I got a positive text yesterday !! So excited that my body is doing what it’s supposed to and this video helped me SO much. Thank you 💗

[@hopenelson5882]

You are such an awesome encouragement. Thank you, as you go through this journey (that is so hard) to take time and educate others on the things you learned along the way. You are a BLESSING, and the definition of what a joyful heart looks like!

[@almaeclu]

I bought the ClearBlue ovulation kit for this cycle because I had a hunch that I ovulate later than my calendar predicts. I was floored when I read the instructions about how the line had to be darker than the control! It was so interesting to me. Day of surge I tested twice, morning was negative, afternoon was a super dark positive. I was soo stoked that I caught it.

[@wildsoulblog7771]

Thanks so much for the info! I would LOVE if this was a recurring monthly video just so we can see different real-life scenarios. My hormone imbalances have caused our infertility and doctors have told me that I have false LH surges and that I ovulate inconsistently. So I’ve stayed away from ovulation tests. But after 2.5 years of trying we finally conceived and had our first boy and that was a year ago. I KNOW I ovulate SOMETIMES so it wouldn’t hurt to go ahead and track that LH surge to catch that one cycle that in fact does release an egg. This video was so encouraging and the old clip reminded me of the beginning of our infertility story. So glad you’re here to support this community! 🥰

[@JC-tn9iv]

You can tell you were a nurse by how well you explain/teach about this topic. 🙂. I’m single, never married or had the chance to become a mom so none of this applies to me but I’m sure your explanation and sharing is SO helpful to women who follow you. Thanks for being you 🥰

[@Mrs.Fehr1997]

My husband and I once used ovulation tests to help prevent pregnancy(using protection when getting to ovulating time), so I tested 4 day's prior to when I was supposed to ovulate and I couldn't even see the second line and so we didn't used protection. The next morning I went to throw out the test and for kicks I held it under the sun light and I noticed an of white line. A week later I had gained a hole kilo already and I found out I was pregnant that month. We now have our second daughter to show for it. Sadly I know alot of people have a hard time getting pregnant, some of my cousin's among them, so I count myself very fortunate to be able to get pregnant that easy, sadly I have gone through many early miscarriages and that was hard as well. Best wishes to all trying to get pregnant.

I had a digital but decided to take it the next morning. Spent the entire night freaking out and was so excited! Next morning I filmed the digital to be able to show my friends and family. And it was negative. I was so confused. Then went back and realised I took a ovulation test 🤦🏼‍♀️ that was a year ago.

Well the pillow is indeed a myth so don't believe it just because Alex said it but she is right it can't hurt either. to me/us though it didn't help at ALL for our relationship and the stress we already experienced in our fertility journey so it helped me to keep s*x also intimate and romantic besides something that needed to be done to get pregnant because after 'the deed' shove a pillow under isn't very romantic at all

[@heather196]

Things are so different in the US. We tried for over a year to get pregnant. We went to the doctor and he’s said keep trying. No offer of help. 6 months - never ever would that trigger anything. I’m in Canada.

[@jodyssbbwgirl9946]

My daughter has been TTC for almost 2 yrs now. Its a very long process to BBT, then finding the right doc to take tests etc. She works 3rd shift so she does take a test at 7:30 pm when she gets up to get ready for work and then again after work. She always has darker lines at night. You said take it at 10 and 2. She is sleeping, so that doesnt work for her.

[@karenlowrey1212]

Add the dates and times to the side of the tests and the optimum times to try. I know it is more technical, but would help understand things better.

[@hannemari4643]

The last time (over 3 years ago) my clinic told me to do LH-sticks they made me do them in the morning. I'd do them 2-3 times a day when they get darker because I'm sooo afraid of missing my window.

[@abbebladon]

I’ll never forget my husband saying to me the first time we “did” it after I’d conceived my baby (our last double dose of clomid) he felt we’d “made love” and not “made a baby”. I did become militant about it and I guess took the fun out of it. So I totally agree with you Alex, keep it fun, enjoy it and then lay still and tilted! Good luck to all those going through infertility, we are a family xxxxxxxxx

[@ChristinaLConway]

Ladies.... Keep testing! If you don't surge on day 14-15 don't lose hope. I personally never surged until day 18. With that said, make sure you're not starting your period too soon after ovulation or you may be suffering from short luteal phase. You want at minimum 11 days between ovulation and your period. Ideally you want at about 14 days (the famous two weeks wait).

[@sherryballestero5108]

With my now 20 year old daughter I took two tests a day. I ovulated on day 18 and we conceived her.:) I have pcos.

[@hislivelystone]

I had always ovulated at average timing (10-14 days) but for a while in my late 20’s, I was ovulating day 19-20 (and a 10 day luteal phase). I got pregnant with my 2nd during that time despite that short LP. It’s never been like that again in my 30’s. I went back to average ovulation. But then I had trouble conceiving my 3rd.

[@ChristinaLConway]

@@sherryballestero5108 I have pcos as well! I've been blessed with two girls... One is 4 and one is ten months.

[@Katt19941]

Just putting this put there. Some women do ovulate even if the test line isn't quite as dark as the control line. I had one that was close, but not quite and that's when I got pregnant with my daughter. If you find you're having this issue, try using strips that also test for estrogen. Like the Clearblue Digital (Purple) or Mira.

[@abiw2723]

I just started using these strips last cycle and this video was so useful, thank you! We’ve been trying for 8 months, so I’m hoping this gets us closer!

[@biannamedina4334]

Any updates??

[@holleyhillfarm]

I'm not trying to be a shill but there are a few apps that help to read your test strips. You upload a pic and it analyzes the lines and gives you a prediction. It worked for us, but we weren't having infertility issues beyond my age (42) and breastfeeding. The one I used had a built-in timer, kept a photo timeline of the tests and has a pregnancy mode to follow along weekly your baby's development and keep notes from Dr visits. It's also helping me track my weight, steps, water intake and supplements. I can pay to get other features unlocked but, eh, don't really need them.

I had a harder time conceiving the second time around. My cycle was all over the place. Found out I ovulate 2 days after my cycle ends. Thanks to ovulation tests. Got pregnant right away. Lost that baby by touching a live wire. Got pregnant again right after but lost that one too on Christmas EVE then I went home for a visit and my husband died. Anyway, always rooting for others to get pregnant! If you want a Girl get busy 1-3 days before ovulation. Girl swimmers swim longer but slower.

Hi Alex, thanks so much for the video! I know the target audience is for those who are trying to conceive, but this was great for me, as someone who is tracking ovulation to prevent pregnancy. Looking at these tests over and over again everyday, sometimes it definitely feels like your eyes are playing tricks on you so it was very reassuring to hear you say that if it's allllmooossttt there, that that is 100% not positive.

[@heatherlaurenRN]

I've noticed for me that testing twice a day is useless because no matter what, whether I get a surge or not, my evening test strips are ALWAYS negative, even if I got a surge at noon that same day. So, I only take one test a day, always at noon.

Hey Alex :) so when the ovulation test drops from the second peak as shown in the video, does that mean that's when the egg is released? Or ovulation is actually finished when the positive is gone? Thanks :)

[@nicolepratt4396]

I would definitely watch the video if you did it again next month and I am not yet at the point of trying yet but learning all of this I believe will be helpful when I am ready. I too have fertility issues with one blocked tube and endometriosis as well as an autoimmune disease, so I am just adding all this information to my tool belt. Also I would love to know where your cross necklace is from. It’s beautiful and have been on the hunt for another one for a while. Love watching your family so much and I get so much encouragement and inspiration from your videos!

[@YvonneBroeksma]

I was obsessed with ovulation tests but never had a positive. I turned out to have pcos and my body broke down the eggs (my body makes more) because it protects me for getting quadrupleds or even more by nature. it actually hurt me to hear you say to keep testing because it definitely will be positive and it's a double search because sometimes it just isn't possible to have a positive. I love your channel and follow you for a few years already but although this video can be very helpful for a lot of people, I wanted to point it out for those with the same fertility problems as we have (my husband and I) for 10 years already. We do have a son, Aiden Davy and his names mean 'Fiercely beloved one', but we received him after hormone shots and IUI.

[@angela_flute52689]

4:26 and 14:30 you still need to check if you actually did ovulate, especially if you have PCOS like me. Women with PCOS can have multiple surges per cycle and never actually release an egg. I use Tempdrop (a wearable thermometer that gets the most accurate BBT, especially if your schedule is wonky, and the only accurate BBT for those of us with PCOS) and that shift helps me confirm, though when I'm actively TTC I get my progesterone checked after I think I've ovulated. (I call in to my doctor and say that I think I ovulated and want to confirm and they send in an order for a blood draw. Sometimes they ask me if it's day 14, but I don't ovulate then; I know my body and it's usually day 20- or 30-something. I just tell them I have PCOS and normal numbers don't apply and they're good with it. Maybe they check with my doctor who has more detailed notes from me, but I don't know.) If the progesterone bloodwork number is high, I did ovulate. 5:30 if you know you have a problem, don't wait the "prescribed" amount of time. Just get the problem addressed. Do keep track of things enough so your doctor has good info to work with, though. If you think things are normal and just need time, then sure, wait, but still keep track so they have info. 11:06, 11:57, 20:05 thank you for pointing out that the test line needs to be darker than the control. So many don't realize this and stop testing or get their dates wrong because of it, and miss opportunities to conceive. Also goes to show just how unhelpful the smiley face ones can be. They just don't give you enough information. 14:30 I feel like every other day is a good average, but obviously might need to be tweaked in certain situations. Too much and there might not be enough sperm, too infrequent and they get clogged.

[@koharkin2555]

I know they don’t recommend fmu with LH tests but I learnt if I didn’t personally I was always missing my peak, to the point I thought I wasn’t ovulating for a good six months. I pee during the night so believe my pee isn’t as concentrated compared to say sleeping through the night. I test 4 to 5 hours apart during my fertile window twice a day. I do my bbt as well which helps confirm ovulation a few days after. Super cool informative video ✨

Have you ever tried fertility awareness method to track your ovulation based on basal body temperature and cervical fluid? I know this has been a long road, and you’ve tried so much. Just curious if you’ve ever tracked that way. Fully aware that IVF has been effective for your family. Just neat to track ovulation and cycle based on the body’s natural symptoms/signs.

When I was trying to get pregnant, the OvuQuick cost $50. It was a complete waste of money. I only had 3 or 4 periods per year because I was an undiagnosed hypothyroid. I was on clomid and a few others, and barely ovulated.

[@alissacarissimi3542]

So my cycle is 29-30 days on average and since having my IUD removed, my period is short, only 4 days. When should I begin testing? Sometimes I read the tests as positive around day 13 sometimes as late as day 17. Ive been trying for a year. Hubby sperm is healthy, but my AMH is low so I started vitamin D and DHEA supplements in addition to a prenatal vitamin. I want to invest in Mira, but it's so expensive.

[@sharity3289]

Now that Alex's body has went through a full term pregnancy, does that mean her body kinda knows what to do now, and they could now possibly get pregnant on their own and carry to term? Edit: Nvm, I just watched the previous vlog...

[@natasha8966]

Not really they still have the same thing as before, Phil has low sperm count I think so him being successful in natural conception would be probably a miracle. The percentage is low that why they still have to do ivf even if she can ovulate and do all the right things it kinda depends on phil’s end aswell.

[@jodyssbbwgirl9946]

My daughters OB put her on the pill for 2 months, said women are the most fertile after coming off. She has tried 6 cycles on clomid, she only ovulated the first cycle, the rest she did not. Finally found a OB that gave her letrozole so she has been waiting for her cycle to start since stopping the pill which today is CD 39. No period yet. Her body gears up but doesnt ovulate. So I think her body keeps trying and trying. She is just waiting for her next period to start so she can finally try the letrozole. She is 27. She has only ovulated 3 times since tracking and trying (clomid) etc. She is so frustrated.

Thank you so much for this!

Should you hold drinking liquids for 2hrs prior to testing to make sure urine is not diluted or it doesn’t matter?

[@unashamed4hisglory]

Amazingg! Love this video! My one question is, if the ovulation test is negative does that mean the egg has officially been released?

[@unashamed4hisglory]

When the ovulation test is negative AFTER the surge I mean.

[@cmunch7473]

Which positive do you start your timer from?

[@Suebearish]

The sample looked very dilute. Does it work with more diluted pee? This is very helpful because back when I was trying to use O tests, I think I tested in the morning and would miss the afternoon surge

[@Yorkielover941]

So what does it mean when the test becomes negative after a positive the egg was released?

When I was still TTC I tested in the am and in the pm and I would get it every month. I always got the cheep tests of Amazon.

We tried for 9 months for our first baby, and nothing… then I was having a lot of issues between cycles, and got pregnant naturally, big surprise!… we have tried for almost a year for a second one and nothing.. I spent the money for the smilie ovulation tests bust still haven’t conceived… my doctor isn’t concerned because we have had a healthy baby, but I don’t understand why it’s taken a year 🤨 and still nothing! These ovulation test videos are very helpful, what if cycles are irregular? Should you just test from end of period forward?

[@curtandbrebuck7409]

Yes! Please do next month!

I used ovulation test for 2 years and never ovulated. I have pcos. Then I finally got meds and ovulated. But on my own I don't have a period or ovulate. I have pcos!
