Fitbit & TTC

@whyhastherumgone 🤞for you.

none successful, not nine successful!!!

Just came across this thread, fascinating! I’ve had two pregnancies, nine successful sadly, but can report that with both my heart rate spiked after ovulation and didn’t go back down according to my fitbit, then increased by about 15beats overall for the length of my pregnancy. TTC at the moment (in as leisurely fashion as one can muster) and think i hit my fertile window and dtd day before positive opk so am loosely keeping an eye on my heart rate.
So far it dropped a little at ovulation after an initial spike and has climbed steadily ever since, so will have to see what happens.
Good luck @sunshineandrainbows6 maybe you just don’t have enough hormone to be picked up yet? Weird that your af hasn’t come.

Nice to see the original ladies posting updates about their babies having just rtft while lounging in the sun :)

Well something must be going on as it's obs not your normal cycle.... frustrating for you to not know though...

RHR has dropped by 1bpm.... but still no AF! 🤷🏻‍♀️😂🤦🏻‍♀️ CD35 of a usual (30-31ish) cycle 🤔

The test I did take though I have just realised wasn't a quick response one! It was a 'on the day of your missed period or any day after'.... maybe I'm a late bloomer? 🤷🏻‍♀️ My RHR after I posted yesterday went back down to 70BPM... I think I opened the app too quick or something... and it's still the same today? 🤔 Does the amount of time spent in the 'fatburn zone' make any difference? Apparently I was in that zone for 4hr 30 mins yesterday and I was only looking around shops haha? 🤔 Aaaaah I dunno; will just have to wait and see I guess 🤷🏻‍♀️😂🤦🏻‍♀️

@ndo4000.... yeah I thought so too! Horrible isn't it every month getting your hopes up! Aaaah well, still no sign of AF.... and the feeling that she's coming has gone away again now.... so I don't know what my body is doing.... today is CD34 😩🤦🏻‍♀️

Oh sorry @SunshineAndRainbows6 . It looked so promising!!!!

BFN on a FRER this morning... just waiting on AF to show now! Think I'm going to be out this month!! 😩👌🏻

Thanks for the reply @spongebobgrannypants! I get what you mean, I'm trying not to get my hopes up! Especially as I haven't been doing it for long... So could just be AF on her way! I keep getting twinges and feel like I need a wee constantly lol been about 6 times already today!! 😂👏🏻 And I've only been using the internet cheapies, might use a FRER tomorrow but I am trying to save them 🤔?

Are you using FRER tests?

It looks promising @SunshineAndRainbows6, but I know from this thread and others I've read some people can have a rise immediately before AF too (some drop on day 1 of AF or day before). It's so hard to tell unless you have a good few months of your own charts to compare (and see if it's following a different pattern than usual).

I ovulated as my RHR was rising so wasn't at the lowest point, was a few days after. Continued to rise after too.

Good luck and hope you get your BFP.

Thanks @ndo4000!!
It's so strange because one minute I feel like AF isn't even coming and then the next I feel like she is.... 😬 Keep panicking thinking she's going to turn up.... deffo need to keep busy! To be honest it won't be hard as one of my best friends has just had a baby so need to buy some bits for him and we are still going through the mid move decorating 😂🤦🏻‍♀️ But it's so hard! Especially when I got a BFN yesterday... don't want to see another 😩 But I guess what will be will be!! I'll keep you all posted ☺️

Fingers crossed for you @SunshineAndRainbows6 !!! Try to keep busy today!

Fine up again guys!!!! 😬 So scared to take a test though... been for two wees already as we have new sofas turning up any minute 😂🤦🏻‍♀️ Think I'll wait till tomorrow! Two of my apps predicted AF for today and the other predicted AF for yesterday 🤔🤞🏻

Thank you both.

@HidCat so sorry for your loss

I'm so sorry for you loss Hun @Hidcat 😘 sending air ((((Hugs))))

And thank you I'll keep you all posted just so confusing all of it 😂🤦🏻‍♀️

Hi everyone, I'm just coming off the back of a miscarriage and can confirm that my Fitbit registered my resting heart rate higher through the pregnancy. It was the reason I tested! RHR went up about 8 bpm and stayed there until the miscarriage. Came back down to normal levels quickly afterwards. It's definitely not a myth.

@SunshineAndRainbows6 your chart looks promising!

Ok so looking back at the days and my cycle apps.... I finished AF on the 6th which is the first drop.... then my 3 apps said I either ovulated on the 19th, 20th or 22nd.... the next dip is the 19th... then the final dip is the 24th.... before rose until now? 🤔🤦🏻‍♀️😂

I'm sorry it's all sooooo bloody confusing! Haha!

Would ov have been at the lowest bpm on your chart?

Thank you for the reply @ndo4000!

And if I'm honest I don't know! Had such bad cramps like a week ago but thought AF might come early but it never showed! Can you make out when I did on the chart? Still super new to this 😂🤦🏻‍♀️ X

Chart still looks good! Maybe retest in a couple of days if AF hasn't appeared? Are you definitely sure when ovulation happened?

Still rising but still a BFN!!! Think I'm 12DPO.... AF due yesterday/Today! I have cramps but still no signs.... TMI but lots of creamy discharge!

Any thoughts ladies? I'm going insane 😭🤦🏻‍♀️😂 xx

Hey all,

CONGRATULATIONS to all the original posters who have had there babies and sending lots of bubba dust to those still waiting to get there 🌈 ! 👶🏻

I know this is quite an old post but I have been reading it with interest! Have only recently been tracking my cycle using my Fitbit but I have approximately 30ish day cycles. And my chart seems all over the place compared to last months 😩 can anyone make sense of it please? I have 3 apps which each tell me I ovulated at different times which isn't very helpful 🤦🏻‍♀️🙈😂
