Or is 5DPO to early to implant?

2020wish · 13/06/2020 13:33

This was my chart last month where I got the weird spike at 6dpo and I got my BFP 10dpo

Thanks girls . This is my chart now. Last month at 6dpo I got a big temp spike and then dip at 7dpo which I believed was implantation and of course I was pregnant. So I’m hoping this is implantation happening

@Ejb86 it's meant to thicken your uterine lining to aid implantation. Get some if you fancy trying it 😊 I tried some this morning. Its sweet but nice! Xx

@MichT4 well, I've read before that sometimes your body gears up to ovulate so you get strong OPKs or signs (CM etc) but then it doesn't quite happen so then it tries again which then you get your proper ovulation.

So I was thinking maybe as you got such strong OPKs the other day that maybe that's what happened. It doesn't mean anything is wrong btw. Think it's quite common. Xx

I’m trying to hold a wee. I have another hour and 40 to go. Not sure I can be bothered 😂

Ejb86 · 13/06/2020 13:19

@VP91x what's the pom juice supposed to do? I'm grapefruit intolerant so can't try that one but would be willing to try pom.

MichT4 · 13/06/2020 13:16

@VP91x what do you mean? I like your hopeful tone so I’m clinging onto whatever you mean...

I hope I get clarity soon too!

@SmileyT please don’t add this to a list. This is a totally new measure for me and I’m just hoping it means something because nothing else is giving me a definite answer. Maybe I need a few more apps 😂

VP91x · 13/06/2020 13:05

@SmileyT yeah its super tempermental! I love your 8 apps, how funny its like getting a report every morning to set you up for the day. It's the first thing I do too! I really don't like Flo, it doesn't understand me at all 😂

Never tried Ovia or Premom. Are they good?

I think I prefer a quickie during FW anyway because you end up doing it so much. Good that you both had a chat about it, whatever works for you both. Also good to try something else!

@MichT4 also, you might have tried to ovulate and now its gearing up to properly ovulate! 😊 I'm sure you'll get clarity soon.

@2020wish I haven't noticed that I get a massive difference in BBT after having a drink. So I hope it is a good sign for you!! Seems like it. What does your chart look like? Xx

SmileyT · 13/06/2020 12:44

@MichT4 yeah it's a bit of a joke with the 8 apps, DP definitely thinks I'm obsessed because I wake up at 5.30am to take temp and then have to put it into all my apps and spend ages analysing it 😂 ooh that's interesting for HR mine definitely doesn't do that, but it didn't the month I conceived either so I'll try not to add that to my list of worries 🙈

@2020wish I've never really noticed a direct correlation between drinking and bbt but I haven't been drinking much so not sure a glass or two will have that much impact. Hopefully it's a good sign for you xx

MichT4 · 13/06/2020 12:28

@SmileyT 8 apps!!? 😳😂 That made me giggle. I struggle keeping up with the ones I have
Re RHR, I’ve no idea yet whether or not in means anything. It’s only the first month using Ava so it’s still gathering data. But the info says that typically RHR increases by up to 2bpm in the days leading up to ovulation. Mine was declining and then last two nights has spiked, went up 2bpm last night. Who knows! I’m hoping I have more idea soon.

I think I need to be ovulating in the next day or two or my cycle is lengthening. Never thought I’d be so excited waiting for a temp peak!

2020wish · 13/06/2020 11:36

Morning everyone. Has anyone noticed but fluctuations in temp when you have had a drink the night before? My temp has shot from 36.29 up to 36.92 so I went back to sleep for another 4 hours and tried retaking it and it was at 37.10. I had had a few drinks last cycle and can’t remember my temp being impacted this much? 5DPO.

HE88 · 13/06/2020 11:27

Morning ladies how are you all today? Xx

@Niisa did you test this morning? Xx

Renna · 13/06/2020 11:20

@MichT4 ah I see xx hope you see ovualtion turn up any day now xx .
@SmileyT ah interesting goood to have a good chat about it xx yeah if no Af by Saturday I'll test as itll be late then x x

SmileyT · 13/06/2020 11:14

@VP91x I go on and off of apps, femometer is annoying that whenever you have EWCM it thinks it's ovulation day 🙄 lets see how I get on with FF premium think I had it to start with but we'll see

@Renna me and DP just had a convo about it, he is so involved in my cycle he always knows when it's peak week but we've decided we're going to try alternate days sex and the AI he says it's nothing to do with pressure but because he wants to try something else but it seems to have calmed him so that's good. I've read that the odds are slightly less than normal sex but as with everything it only takes once I guess. I'm going to try and make sure I remember preseed this month aswell 🙌🏾 also I am definitely not into hour sessions, some days we only have 2hrs in the house together if he is working nights, so perfected the quickie 😂 and exciting you are so close, will you test next Saturday? Xx

@MichT4 I currently use 8 apps but don't have glow, don't tempt me 🙊 also interesting that rhr is up, mine is lowest at ovulation, no idea what that means x

MichT4 · 13/06/2020 11:12

@Renna no not testing yet. I don’t think I’ve ovulated yet so still got to get into the TWW. Can’t wait for it now, just want to feel like I’m in the countdown.

@VP91x it was high again. I’ve met a friend for coffee so I’ll have to do a hold for later and see. Both my RHR and breathing rate is ramping up, which is meant to happen in the days pre ovu so I’m hoping it’s a good sign. Still worrying I won’t ovulate 😭 xxx

VP91x · 13/06/2020 10:46

@Renna ahhh not too long to wait then! I have my fingers crossed for you xx

OP posts:
Renna · 13/06/2020 10:45

@VP91x apps all saying different now but based on previous cycles I'd say thursday /Friday next week xx

VP91x · 13/06/2020 10:41

@Renna yeah absolutely especially when you know there's so many variables skewing your data this month 😊 when will AF be due? Xx

OP posts:
Renna · 13/06/2020 10:20

@VP91x ah makes sense thank you xx I think it's a cycle where I just have to carry on tracking just for sake of collecting data but ignore what its saying and just know I got my peak I DTD and just wait for AF ! Rather than trying to analyse it all too much xx

VP91x · 13/06/2020 10:14

@MichT4 Ooh, how are your OPKs this morning? Just had my POM juice - very sweet but nice!

@Renna FF only uses temps to confirm ovulation unless you change the setting on it which is why it will ignore your OPK for now 😊 xx

OP posts:
Renna · 13/06/2020 09:34

@MichT4 haha yeah its annoyed me and I've just downloaded fertility friend and put in temps /data for this month and it says I ovulated CD20 when I got a positive opk at CD 14 which I've also input ... it is largely my fault too though with my bad temping .. dunno why I'm bothering this cycle but I'm still doing it .. 🙄😂 xx are you testing in a few days? Xx

MichT4 · 13/06/2020 09:19

Oh and I might be imagining it, but last night when I went to bed I thought I had an ache by my hip. No idea if it was anything but we’ll find out in a couple of days, I hope 🤞🏼

MichT4 · 13/06/2020 09:18

Morning everyone ☺️ How are we all?

@Bellabubble yes we are still finding stuff. We have some pretty big cracks down the stairs but they said to leave it for a few months before they fix it because they could move more. We just put it all in an email to them and before lockdown, they were pretty good at fixing it. Might need reminding. I don’t mean to be negative but I think they are just really lazy. It’s not their problem and they aren’t getting paid per job so as you say, they won’t get pulled up on it. We’ve had a few things where the site manager can’t believe they’ve done something, though to be fair he should have snagged it too.
Anyway, positive is it gets done, and although it’s hassle you have someone there to come and fix things for a while which is a bonus.

@VP91x @Renna I think you know my thoughts on Femometer this month 😂. Because my temp went up about a week ago (then straight back down) it moved ovulation back about 10 days from its original prediction, and all previous months, and hasn’t moved even though it picked up a peak OPK 🙄. The app that I’ve found most accurate (based on only AF arriving) is Glow. I haven’t tried FF. another one to add to my growing list of fertility apps 😂
