I've just recently started using natural cycles as a form of TTC and tracking my BBT. Does anyone have a copy of their graph please? I'm interested to see what others look like as I haven't completed a full month with mine yet. Mine for reference 😊

Hah! I will do. Still getting the hang of these charts 4 months in.

@monica3287 it's the multitasking, I'm the same 🤣 let me know what it looks like tomorrow!

Perfect, thank you. And don’t be sorry - I’m typing away at work and didn’t explain myself properly. Thank you.

I appreciate it!

@monica3287 oh sorry 😂 yes it does, if you have another high temp tomorrow it'll give you your cover line; that's what happens for me anyway

OP posts:

I did with OPK - had a peak on Friday.
Sorry I wasn’t very clear on my question - do you know if the FF app needs to record another high temperature before it changes to update the graph with the cover line? It hasn’t recognised ovulation as being yesterday… does that make sense?

@monica3287 did you track via OPK? Looks like you O yesterday to me 😊

Hello again - here for a bit more help. Do I need for another 2 x high temperatures for FF to record that ovulation has happened…? What do you think?

Thank you. I thought it would record it with the temperature this morning.

This is where I'm at, not really sure what I'm looking at as I only starting tracking BBT towards the end of my last cycle.

@Piratepants87 mine rises straight away the next day, but goes above cover line the second day after

Hi all,
How many days have you ladies waited for your BBT to rise after ovulation?

amy1313 · 30/06/2023 15:05

Hello, do you mind if I join? This is my chart from this month, a bit confused on when I ovulated, I have PCOS so long cycles. I think CD24 possibly which would make me 10dpo today. Negative test this morning, but I did test negative at 10dpo with my DD before getting a bpf at 13 dpo.

Ok that’s good to know thank you! I ovulate quick early at around day 13/14 so I’ll start assume my fertile week is from CD7… keep us updated on how you get on! X

@IGB3993 you really do!

My cycles went pretty much straight back to normal so I ovulated cd21 which was my normal, although I'm now ovulating cd19 which I think is due to the vitamins I'm taking

IGB3993 · 30/06/2023 12:42

I know what you mean, you notice everything so much more when you’re trying don’t you!

Sorry about your chemical, it’s so shit. How long after did you ovulate? My natural cycles is saying it has no idea so I’m a bit lost, just assuming it’ll be normal time?

Angelselevenx · 30/06/2023 12:02

Hey @IGB3993 I've been having a lot of pulling etc up until yesterday but nothing since, also I feel like I get those every month to be honest!

Oh no I'm so sorry to hear that; I had a chemical in April time and I read everywhere you were super fertile, didn't happen for me but I've seen lots of positive stories of it happening for others so hopefully, I've got my fingers crossed for you!

IGB3993 · 30/06/2023 11:56

Hey guys! @Angelselevenx your graph looks great! I ended up having a chemical this month, tested on 14dpo and it was a nice positive but but 16dpo no change and by 18dpo I had some bleeding.. temp finally down so we go again! Hoping the rumours are true that your super fertile post CP?! Who knows.. wishful thinking? Have attached graph, you can see the temps weren’t looking good anyway so I’m not surprised.

@Angelselevenx the chart is looking good! Later temps will generally be higher, when you record them on FF if you put the time in it will mark that on the chart as it could be important info later on. I sometimes use a bbt temp adjuster to correct them although Ff advised not to.
looks like you have a nice luteal dip going on!

Hi everyone! 7dpo today, didn't use preseed but I will next month! Current graph is sitting like this. Todays temp was about 50 mins later than I normally take it (7:15 instead of 6:25) so not sure how right that is

@Pumpkin80 that’s interesting about the BMI thing, they calculated my BMI as 26 at booking in appointment and they didn’t mention it? Let me know if you find out more! Congratulations on your scan, you’re so close to 12 weeks now!!

thank you @Angelselevenx and @IGB3993 Xx
I would definitely still use the preseed especially if you don’t get much EWCM!

Pumpkin80 · 22/06/2023 14:19

@Angelselevenx hello! I’m good thanks. I’m 10 + 6 🙌🏻 had a private scan on Monday as had some bleeding but all good. Have my 12 week NHS scan next week so will be a few days out. But don’t really have any symptoms and so far a completely different pregnancy to my son where I felt rubbish from 4 weeks and by 12 weeks had gain over a stone 🤣. I’ll find out today if I’m part of this BMI over 25 consultant lead new announcement. It used to be BMI over 30 - so we’ll see!

How is everyone this thread has really taken off! Lots of baby dust to everyone 🥰 xx

@sashastuck yay! Congratulations, how exciting 😊

We haven't actually used preseed this month 🤦🏽‍♀️ if O is tomorrow should I use it then or will that be to late? Xx

@IGB3993 oh I'm sorry 😔 I think wait and see if AF appears and then if not test, although when I see my temp start to drop I just throw the towel in 😅🤦🏽‍♀️

IGB3993 · 22/06/2023 09:01

@sashastuck Congratulations! Big milestone ticked off, so happy for you!

IGB3993 · 22/06/2023 09:00

@Angelselevenx Great news! Fingers crossed for you. Sadly think my temp starting to fall, it went back down to 36.22 today so only just above coverline. I'm CD 27 and normally 28 days so expecting AF tomorrow really. Not sure I can cope with disappointment of neg test so may just avoid doing it?!

sashastuck · 22/06/2023 06:44

Woohoo @Angelselevenx best of luck for this time!! Sending all the baby dust!

I’m all good thanks, at my 10 week scan I was measuring 11 so I’m now officially over 12 weeks! Starting to go by really fast, can’t wait to start telling people xx
