Does anyone else use there heart rate monitor on there Fitbit to monitor when they have ovulated? Saw a post on here recently where someone was but can't find it now. Been reading up on it thought it would be interesting to see how many of you guys did?

Not until next Saturday - usually starts 15dpo...

HolyShmoly · 10/09/2017 12:57

When is AF due Bsclp?

Bsclp · 10/09/2017 06:14

Hi,

I'm 10dpo and my HR is 73bpm, the highest it's ever been since January. Keeping my fingers crossed but I got a FRER BFN this morning :-(

Ah I'm sorry @Gerriberry

I wonder if it's just useful if you're late af and poas gives negative? Otherwise it just seems to give some false hope!

I'm still adding mine to a chart to keep an eye on ovulation as much as anything.

gerriberry · 07/09/2017 06:50

Update. Temperature started dropping two days ago and AF has arrived this morning so Fitbit theory didn't work for me 😢

gerriberry · 05/09/2017 11:11

Hold off until Friday now @HomySmoly!!

@Juneybean. This is the first month mine has done this!! Back in may it went up for about 2 days but then dropped again!!

juneybean · 05/09/2017 09:06

My rhr always goes up following ovulation in line with my temperature going up. It can go from 58 to 63 some months. But then starts to got back down towards AF coming

HolyShmoly · 05/09/2017 08:43

Are you going to test every morning or hold off until Friday?

gerriberry · 05/09/2017 07:03

Thanks @Holysmoley, got a BFN this morning at 11dpo but my rhr is still sitting at 69bpm (3 higher than pre ovulation) so I don't know what's going on with it!!!

HolyShmoly · 04/09/2017 14:26

Fx Gerri.

gerriberry · 03/09/2017 07:32

RHR took at dip by 1 yesterday but then shot by up by 2 again today so currently at 71bpm. (This is definitely the highest it's ever been!) POAS this morning and got BFN but still not due AF until Friday so another 5 days and I'm always regular!!

gerriberry · 01/09/2017 17:50

Thanks Alex. Fingers crossed. Really hoping that I'm not building myself up for a fall but it's never gone like this after ovulation before and I am still getting creamy CM xx

AlexsMum89 · 01/09/2017 17:45

Forgot the actual chart haha

AlexsMum89 · 01/09/2017 17:45

Hey! Here is my chart - staying high but zigzagging between 67 and 68 and definitely pregnant. FX for you x

gerriberry · 01/09/2017 17:17

Hi HolyShmoly, yes it's gone up again today by 1 more. I'm 7dpo now! (Ovulation was 25th Aug!) Convinced I'm a bit nauseaus today and yesterday but I could be imaging that (wishful thinking!!)

Fitbit & TTC
HolyShmoly · 01/09/2017 17:14

I am Geri. Has yours continued rising?

gerriberry · 01/09/2017 11:41

Anybody still here?

gerriberry · 31/08/2017 21:48

Tell staying at 69bpm today so not dropping yet. 6dpo and have been feeling a bit bloated and nauseous today (though don't know if I'm imagining yet!) I can't really see any clear pattern over the last few months but temp does seem to be staying high since ovulation so hopefully it's a good sign!!

I haven't read this whole thread yet but I will later with great interest. My Fitbit says my resting heart rate is much higher today but I only got it on Monday so that's not a lot of data to go on Grin came off the pill 3 months ago and haven't bled since so I guess I can't rule out that I could potentially have conceived, really hoping I have (or will soon)

juneybean · 30/08/2017 21:05

Friday or Saturday holy not hopeful at all

AlexsMum89 · 30/08/2017 20:49

Fingers crossed for you ladies xxx

gerriberry · 30/08/2017 20:34

Thanks @Holyscmoly. Will see how it goes over the next few days! Ovia doesn't suggest testing until 12dpo but not sure I'll hold out until then!! Hope your bug clears up soon xx

HolyShmoly · 30/08/2017 19:27

Geriberry, that looks really good!
Juney, when are you due your BFP?

Here's mine for last cycle and this one, featuring that mean, teasing spike which I think was down to a combination of more sugar than normal and an upset stomach.

I'm going to start temping this month so I'll be interested in seeing how they compare.

gerriberry · 30/08/2017 15:00

My has increased by 2 at 5dpo. Just been to boots and got the frer tests as it's 3 for 2! Due af next Thursday/Friday depending on which app I use so am going to test from Monday (10dpo) as I won't be able to last any longer!!!

AlexsMum89 · 30/08/2017 14:56

Thank you @gerriberry ! It only increased by 2, but it looked quite obvious on the graph
