Tracking your cycle and possible BFP using RHR - part 4

Hi ladies,

This is for all of us with heart rate monitors who wish to help each other analyse the RHR patterns throughout our cycles.

Early research shows there's a correlation with increasing RHR and BFPs - so let's try and spot some together!

@mrsi2020 what a lovely jelly bean you've got there! Please stick around :) What's your due date and when is your next scan?

13DPO here, BBT and RHR aren't really doing anything at all but I tested BFN yesterday so I assume they'll drop tomorrow or something! Was certain AF would show today though...

Hi 🙋🏼‍♀️

Room for one more? I’ve been attempting to track my heart rate the past 2 cycles. I think I ovulated on the 21st, it carried on rising after but then dipped and seems to have stayed down 😕 it is still quite abit higher than it normally is, I’m currently 6DPO

@mumof23188 i know this cycle is turning out longer than expected, i've been having long ones since my CP in may and was always regular before. i thought they were getting shorter as i had a 72, a 48 but now this one is long again 🙈i've given up using opks as i never know when to use them so just using rhr and bbt and hoping i can figure something out. my rhr did actually drop for yesterday by the evening down to the same as the day before so i'm not sure anymore

ambs1994 · 27/10/2020 07:16

I'm just sick now. Just gonna assume I'm not pregnant at all and hope my period comes in the mean time.

@ambs1994 sorry it was a BFN 😩

@poptypingchef ahh damn it. How many dpo are you?

@lucyrp CD52 bless you. How bloody frustrating 😩. The increase is looking really good. Hopefully you have ovulated 🤞🤞surely with that increase you must of!

@LS2020 that is strange. Can’t see how half a glass could increase it by that much. Hope you get your static this cycle 🤞🤞

Cd11 for me and got a positive OPK! Last cycle I ovulated on the day I got the positive so I’m hoping to be in the TWW tomorrow. HR has dropped by 1!

lucyrp · 27/10/2020 07:00

@LS2020 well currently i'm CD52 and hoping i've ovulated but really have no idea 🙈 i think i may be 7dpo and where the huge rise and fall is i had a bit of a cold so i think that could be why that is as it was the same on m bbt so i disregarded those temps x

LS2020 · 27/10/2020 06:57

@lucyrp where about are you in your cycle? You’ve got a good increase going on!

@poptypingchef oh no, how many DPO are you? I had a bit of a dip before my BFP tho was about 8dpo.

Well no idea what’s going on with my RHR as CD10 and my RHR has shot up by 3bpm. Had half a glass of wine last night but feels too high just for that? V weird. Started my OPKs though so 🤞🏻

poptypingchef · 26/10/2020 22:15

Sorry you are in limbo @ambs1994

I was liking the way my chart was looking but today I’ve seen a drop 😞

@GlassLily hahaha 😆 erm im 2 to 4 days late. Period should have been here anywhere between Thursday to Sunday

GlassLily · 26/10/2020 20:23

@ambs1994

Had a naked noodle for my dinner and it didn't taste right 🤔. I may try a test again in the morning see what happens
@ambs1994 omg I thought 'naked noodle' must be slang for penis when I first read this 🙈🙈🙈 all the mn slang has got my brain doing strange things!

How many days late are you now?

ambs1994 · 26/10/2020 18:12

Bought first response after work and obviously had to do a test didnt I. I feel like i can see the start of something but could just be my eyes 🙈

Hi ladies just found this thread when pondering about my rhr and @Juno231 is the start of another thread i'm on so thought i'd pop on here and see what you all thought of my chart. my bbt is completely all over the place so can't really read much from that but wondered what you're thoughts were on this

LS2020 · 26/10/2020 12:08

@ambs1994 sorry it’s a bfn for you. I find really hot baths or hot water bottles are really good for bringing my AF on when it’s a couple of days later than normal. It’s so frustrating though as it gives you so much false hope 😔

mumof23188 · 26/10/2020 09:34

@ambs1994 hope you aren’t waiting to long for an answer either way!

ambs1994 · 26/10/2020 07:49

@mumof23188 i guess the wait continues

mumof23188 · 26/10/2020 07:47

@ambs1994 ahhh no!! I’m sorry it’s a BFN 😩😩

ambs1994 · 26/10/2020 07:45

@mumof23188 @ls2020 nope still nothing, my asda doesnt sell first response so got clear blue 6 day early at 10ml sensitivity. This is really annoying now 😒

mumof23188 · 26/10/2020 07:25

@ambs1994 nothing is disgusting when TTC 😂. Good luck! Hope it’s a BFP 🤞

LS2020 · 26/10/2020 07:23

@ambs1994 hope it’s a BFP for you this morning 🤞🏻

ambs1994 · 26/10/2020 06:59

That was meant to say no af last night

ambs1994 · 26/10/2020 06:59

So now af during the night, so this sounds disgusting but I've peed in a pot, then drive to asda soon and buy a test and do it in the car.
Heart rate has dropped to 66 but still up from ov day. I only assume its dropped by not doing anything yesterday

LS2020 · 25/10/2020 18:49

@Mrsi2020 what a beautiful scan picture and wishing you the most wonderful health & happy 9 months ❤️ Thank you for all your support - will miss you but so glad you’re getting your little one. Do come back and see us once in a while ☺️

Hope you’re all keeping well. AF has finished and just into my FW and flat RHR now so all looking positive that my cycles are regulating back after CP 🤞🏻

@mumof23188 I havent tested today. I stupidly thought boots out of hours counter would be open now and it closed at half 4. I was in the petrol station this morning and was going to buy one in there but didn't know the sensitivity of it 🤔. Will see how i feel tomorrow and if af shows during the night before i buy some tomorrow now
