@BakingAlly09 I've taken mine abroad, left it in my hand luggage and got through security without any issues!

BakingAlly09 · 09/04/2024 05:19

Hello, I’m due to go away for the weekend but, I have carry on luggage only. Does anyone know if I can take my OvuSense through security without taking it out and declaring it as an electrical item? I’m anxious about needing to explain what it is in front of strangers or being told I can’t pass through security with it. Thanks in advance.

So it looks like I didn’t ovulate this cycle! It’s my first month using Ovusense in over a year and a half and just ordered my replacement sensor. I used it for 2 weeks, 30odd days into my cycle (I’m having really long cycles) one 38 days and one 49. And well i got my period 2 weeks later and it didn’t look like I ovulated!
my temps stayed pre ovultion temp. I’ve attached 2 charts ones from when I conceived and one from this month!

@BakingAlly09 hows it going for you?

@BakingAlly09 yayy! I’m glad it’s sorted itself out! Frustrating when it doesn’t work properly!

That will be a relief for you😁 Fingers crossed for a positive test🤞🏼

BakingAlly09 · 11/12/2023 18:55

I heard back from them:

Thank you for your patience I have now heard back from the technician.

The recent dip has created a little uncertainty over the ovulation day, hence the window going, but if you continue to track your data it may yet provide a confirmation.

However, when I logged into the app today the ovulation window was there along with a message confirming when I’d ovulated 😊

Peonies94 · 11/12/2023 18:39

@BakingAlly09 thT chart looks good to me, and it should confirm ovulation, I’d say those temps look like you did indeed ovulate! Let us know what the support says though!

BakingAlly09 · 10/12/2023 19:35

I thought the same but, because it’s my first cycle and I have pcos I was questioning myself. I’ve contact the support team at OvuSense who have told me they’re sending my data to the technical team to reviews. I’m hoping it’s a glitch.

it’s good to know I’m not the only one this has happened to. Not ideal when you’re a nervous wreck as it is.

RL1991 · 10/12/2023 12:32

It looks like you have ovulated by the way the temperature has dipped and then started to increase. When I used OvuSense this would often happen where the window would disappear and then take a couple of days to register it so I think it looks like this could happen for you.

BakingAlly09 · 10/12/2023 08:59

Hi there,

I’ve been lurking around mumsnet for over a year now and I’ve finally plucked up the courage to post. I have PCOS and we’ve been TTC for 1.5 years. It’s a rollercoaster of emotions. After reading threads on mumsnet, I bought ovucore and I’m in cycle 1, day 23.

Up until last night graph was displaying an ovulation window and now it’s disappeared. I’ve gone from being super positive to anxious and upset. Does anyone know why this has happened? I’ve added images of a graph with the ovulation window and an image of it having disappeared.

amazing to hear lots of you had positive stories! Im back here again with my new sensor purchased, patiently waiting for my periods to return, but going to use the sensor for a while to see what my baseline temp is before hopefully ttc in the new year!

@overthinkersanonnymus I almost felt like, even tho is gross, it kept the sperm up there lol! I know some people bought cups or similar that keeps the sperm up there so what's the difference 😂

I'm the same as @theblueflowers (hello!) and would really recommend it!

theblueflowers · 28/03/2023 18:23

@overthinkersanonnymus yep! I won't lie, it is slightly gross taking it out in the morning, but I like to think that it might have helped them stay up in the right place!

overthinkersanonnymus · 28/03/2023 18:21

@theblueflowers thank you! Also one more question 😂

If you have sex at night, do you you pop it in before going to sleep? Like, even though there will be semen in there? Which sounds stupid now I've written it out lol!

theblueflowers · 28/03/2023 11:27

Hi @overthinkersanonnymus yep that's right- as soon as you stop bleeding you're good to go, but in the app, you would still log your period so it can get your ovulation date correct. It's easy once you've done it once!

Would really recommend it, I found it so useful with irregular cycles especially. It would have taken me so much longer to conceive.

overthinkersanonnymus · 27/03/2023 23:23

Hey I know this thread has tailed off a bit as so many of you have babies!!! But if anyone could help me with a dump question, that would be great 😂

What cycle day do you use this from? Is it first day after your period perhaps? I'm thinking of investing in one xx

Peonies94 · 25/12/2022 21:32

@Katie2021 awww how lovely! Congratulations! Another baby girl💕! I can’t believe my baby will be here in 2 months time! I’m just ready for her now!!

Yes I’m in the june thread!

We had the gender scan there this Christmas Eve! We got our gender balloon from them too whilst they kept it a secret from us and we’re having a Baby Girl!!! 💗💗💗💗 I was convinced it was a boy after the scan because they said “ok we’ve got the gender” really fast 😂 so was so pleasantly surprised!!! Our first baby and I’ve always wanted a girl our family is full of boys haha xxxxxx

Peonies94 · 10/12/2022 14:26

@Katie2021 i did a gender scan there, they were lovely and it was nice to find out a little sooner! I was soo keen to find out!

OP posts:
Peonies94 · 10/12/2022 14:25

@Katie2021 hey baby I'm not too sure, I have felt popping sensations sometimes, it was like that with my daughter in the beginning! I'm finding out on 30th! I have a strong feeling it's a boy! I'm also horrifically sick! Have been since week 6! I've been on cyclizine xx

Katie2021 · 09/12/2022 16:54

@Moosh18 aww Yayy I wanted to find someone with the same due date!! Hope everythings been ok for you so far! ❤️ I’ve had such bad sickness I’ve got some tablets yesterday so I’m hoping they will kick in soon!

have you felt any movement or anything? This is my first baby so I’m not too sure what to feel out for, I’ve noticed like a bubbling feeling a couple of times but could be nothing 🤣

I’ve booked a private gender scan with window to womb! You can do it a little earlier than waiting for the 20week one on the nhs, they also do them gender reveal balloons for you there too! So I rang to book an appointment and its booked for Christmas Eve! So going to do the balloon with family after it on Christmas Eve , so excited to find the gender out be a nice early Christmas present haha 😍😍 aww I hope your right! I don’t mind what I have but I kind of hope I have a girl one day! 💜💜xxx

Moosh18 · 08/12/2022 08:28

@Katie2021 awww we are due the same day!! Congratulations! I can't see a nub but would guess girl!! I think I'm havjng a boy x

Katie2021 · 07/12/2022 19:55

Hey guys, had my 12 week scan today and turns out I’m 14 weeks! 😍 due 7th of June now xx

loved the scan seeing the baby wriggling around arms and legs moving too 😂😍 my baby was upside down at the scan though and they had me shaking my hips going up and downs stairs to get the baby to turn over haha but wouldn’t budge the right way, so they had to flip my picture in the end 😂

any guesses to the gender, seen all the different theory’s online and been trying to work it out hahaha xxx

@MO22 im taking 11 months! What about you? I’m finishing quite early though so I’m hoping I don’t go overdue as I was hoping to work to 38 weeks, but I’m now finishing at 36 weeks and I work in a place where annual leave isn’t an option, as we have set hols, so I could be off for 6 weeks before she arrives! I’d love to rake a year, but we’ve been saving fo try and manage the few months unpaid and I think 11 months is the most we can stretch to!
