@2020wish Id say its a good sign - have u had a drink before and it rise like that only cos i know mine spikes with a drink if i have quite a few where i feel a bit delicate the next day but wouldnt say off one or two, so it def a good sign ... i think temps are reliable because look at my graphs below the pst 6 cycles ... my temp went in 36.90's and wayy above the cover line when i was pregnant in sept (blue lines) then i stopped tracking after a while until i lost her in feb and had to start again but u can see my patterns and id def take it as a good sign if my temp went up like that again ... another thing... i had 2 slight implantation bleeds (after sex) while i was in poland on holiday one at 4dpo and 6dpo and i was sooo hot in bed... so it def is a sign and i got a faint positive 5 days after that at 9dpo and by 10 dpo it was clear on frer and digital 1-2 weeks x x fingers crossed for u!! ( ps how do i open a pm iv never had one on here) xx

@VP91x what did your last CB say this morning? x

SmileyT · 17/05/2020 07:14

@2020wish I only started temping this month and mine was very textbook just rose after ovulation had a dip at 8dpo and fell just before AF but I do have femometer premium so spend ages looking at other charts (yes I'm a massive loser) and having a triphasic graph, which basically means having a jump after ovulation and a jump after implantation is definitely a sign of pregnancy so keep an eye on it over the next few days to see if it stays high. Only thing I would say is that with every type of temp graph that indicates pregnancy there are similar ones that show no pregnancy. With RHR the month I got pregnant it shot up higher than it ever had before which was a clear sign to me. Fingers crossed this is your month 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

Just noticed my resting heart rate on Fitbit has jumped from 79 to 85 this morning also... ugh trying really hard not to get my hopes up

Morning ladies! For those who temp every month have you ever had a temp spike 6dpo ? My temp has spiked today from 36.58 to 36.88. I even had a fan on in the room all night (I did have a few wine last night but I also had a few the night before also so dunno if that’s what’s caused it)

Any idea what this means? I googled and some people say they got implantation spikes in early pregnancy on 6dpo but don’t want to get my hopes up

Bellabubble · 17/05/2020 00:05

@Hayleylou89 do you use natural cycles? I’d say your biggest temp rise looks like it was the day before what the app said. If it makes you feel reassured at all - my temp rose before I got an LH surge - got my peak the next day - which means ovulation had to hapoen after that, and it has said I ovulated the day my temp rose, even though it was a negative lh and my surge started and the peak all came within the next day! I think it does the best it can do as an app - I do still like it, but I definitely think it was out of sync for me this month! You have DTD lots though so I am sure you’re covered 👍🏻 xx

SmileyT · 16/05/2020 23:47

@Mommybear05 thanks lovely, I'm actually feeling great today strangely, very excited for the month ahead and as we are the same that makes us normal 😂

@Hayleylou89 oh yeah definitely makes sense to wait until you're pretty sure it'll come up to test if you only have a few 👌🏾

@DBTJ congrats 🥳 hope this is a sticky bean for you x

2020wish · 16/05/2020 23:15

@Hayleylou89 going to send you a pm

Re6ecc4 · 16/05/2020 23:13

Hey everyone I'm glad you still remember 😍
@Renna I'm doing great thanks!
@Hayleylou89 and @VP91x thankyou very much! It deffo can get a bit much sometimes, honest I think the stress was stopping the babies!
@Mommybear05 thankyou! Yeah it's definitely done me good! I am CD16 today so I think tww now, my CM has started to become less egg white now

Rainbowhope11 · 16/05/2020 23:11

@VP91x we've been dtd everyday. I was also supposed to be doing SMEP this month, but then the early flashing smiley confused me on day 7 and now who knows what I'm doing😂

I feel like my eyes cannot even see slight changes in lines anymore😂 the both lines are pretty dark but I can see that the test light is still a tad lighter than the control line. Urghhhh!

peonyrose87 · 16/05/2020 22:53

@DBTJ congratulations on your positive Thanks

peonyrose87 · 16/05/2020 22:52

@hayleylou89 thanks! I did an evening one tonight and it's back to being super faint 😫

VP91x · 16/05/2020 22:46

@Rainbowhope11 I'm on CD18 😩 are you Dtd everyday or every other?

We are still doing every other day as I am meant to be doing SMEP this month. I know yeah, I think my OPKs have been a tiny bit stronger this afternoon/evening.

Will save my last CB for tomorrow morning and hope my cheapies come early or BBT confirms something soon. Xx

@VP91x I'm only in cd 11, but have been getting flashing smileys since cd 7, so I've had a week of dtd with no end in sight 😂 if I don't get a peak by tomorrow I don't know what I'm going to do😫 what day are you on?

I think I have 3 cb sticks left. I have a box of the cheapies left, but it's just frustrating me even more to not see any change in the darkness of the test line.

My poor DH says we will give it all we have until next Tuesday/Wednesday and see what happens.

VP91x · 16/05/2020 22:31

@Rainbowhope11 it makes me want to snap it everytime it flashes at me 😂😂

No, I have one more CB but I ordered more of my cheapie OPKs, hopefully they arrive earlyish tomorrow. How many do you have left? What CD are you on? Xx

OP posts:
Rainbowhope11 · 16/05/2020 22:16

@VP91x oh my gosh, I just got the flashing smiley again 😫 I have a few more of the cb sticks left, but starting to feel really frustrated! Just wish the peak would show up already! Did you buy more cb OPKs?

DBTJ · 16/05/2020 21:56

Thank you so much. I noticed you were deciding what to do about your opks I personally would not bother with expensive ones. B&M Clear and simple did the trick same with pregnancy test. Good luck 🤗

VP91x · 16/05/2020 21:32

Hey @DBTJ ☺️
Congratulations on your positive! That's great news, especially after your loss. Fingers crossed you have a safe pregnancy xx

Hi All

1st time posting however I have been reading all the post since the 1st April thread.
I Mc on April 17th I was 6 weeks bleed for around 5 days. I decided to tct straight away started to use ovulation sticks for the 1st time however i had EWCM on 29th but no positive opks. I got positive on the 30th. I ran my brain cells mad testing everyday and got a faint line positive line on the 12th. Hoping this one sticks.
I just want to say what a fantastic group this is and it's so reassuring to see how many women actually go through this.Smile

Hayleylou89 · 16/05/2020 20:42

@peonyrose87

Def looks like you will get a peak soon id recommend doing a evening one, my darkest one happened at 9pm at night then went faint in the morning x

Hayleylou89 · 16/05/2020 20:28

@Renna not too much longer for u ... my app is predicting a 32 day cycle this month with ovulating earlier so AF due a week on Monday for me, the cycle before falling pregnant was a 32 day cycle too so that can only be a good think and either way its less wait 🙏 x

Renna · 16/05/2020 20:24

@Hayleylou89 Thursday or Friday next week xx Thursday based on last months cycle xx

Hayleylou89 · 16/05/2020 20:13

@Renna when is AF due for u? Xxx

Hayleylou89 · 16/05/2020 20:12

@SmileyT Earliest i would test is next weekend as ill be 10/11 dpo then and thats when i got a bfp last time but i dont have loads of cheapies only have 2 cheapies and 2 frers so need to not waste them too early on x

@Mommybear05 thank u ... it would be such a blessing anytime but especially this cycle 🙏

@2020wish it was me who said my hubby started the hcg x
