Tracking BBT - TTC

Angelselevenx · 26/03/2023 13:25

Hi everyone! It's our second cycle TTC and first cycle tracking my BBT and I find it all so interesting, I'm learning so much about my body that I didn't even think of before. I'd like to see others graphs that are TTC and how their graph reflected a BFN or BFP. I'm 5DPO and temperature dipped yesterday but back up again today.

Feel free to share your graph so we can discuss all things TTC and BBT 😊

@Ttcsecond don't forget that HCG levels double every 48 hours so it may not show more progression until tonight/tomorrow. Plus there is still a line so at this moment you're pregnant! 🤞🏼

@Angelselevenx that’s great news about the lines. Got everything crossed for you!

I don’t know if I drank a lot before bed. I feel like I’m just trying to find excuses though whereas in my head I know it’s not good news.

I went out this morning and got another FRER and did it with SMU (after not drinking much). And the lines still there and darker than 2 days ago but about the same as yesterday. I’ll post the picture (top is 10dpo, middle 11dpo and bottom is today at 12dpo)

@Ttcsecond I'm sorry to hear that! Although I've been googling and not sure how well line progression works on the IC. Do you have any other tests?

I'm 10/11dpo today and have faint lines on the boots early tests, waiting for the FRER to arrive

I found that taking temps orally isn't very reliable so switched to vaginally probably should have waited for the next cycle but this is what it looks like

Another chemical for me I think. Not pregnant on a digital today and lines fainter on my cheap tests. Was going to tell my other half today.
hope you guys got your positives xx

Hi both. I didn’t manage to record my temp this morning bcos I kept waking up too many times and took ages to go back to sleep so it was too late to record an accurate temp 😮‍💨

i was looking at my graph the time I fell pregnant in 2018 (which was a straight forward successful pregnancy) straight after my chemical pregnancy. The line just keeps going up and down. I’m not even sure what the line is supposed to look like! I thought if you were preg it would show a steady line going up. I would have to step away from bbt when I get a bfp as my anxiety wouldn’t cope 😂

I had slight cramp in my vagina today (sorry tmi), I’m hoping it’s implantation as I’m 6DPO but I’m prob just trying to get my hopes up 😁

Period due next Thursday. 😮‍💨🕰️

We all become POAS addicts 🤣

Yes 10miu/ml can be sensitive, try again tomorrow or the next day and should hopefully be clearer. Think first response as 6miu/ml.

@Ttcsecond did another with smu, why do we do this to ourselves 😅 this one wasn't fully dried out yet

@Ttcsecond 10miu/ml which is think is quite sensitive isn't it? I could be wrong though.

Ah okay so it could be that my temp starts dropping more tomorrow although it dropped by 0.02 today 🤷🏽‍♀️

OP posts:
Ttcsecond · 30/03/2023 12:09

I’m 10dpo today.

I see a shadow on that test, what’s the sensitivity of the test you’re using? Fingers crossed there’s something there.

This was the end of my chart last month. My temp dropped over a few days before AF. But that was my first month charting so not sure if that’s the norm.

@Ttcsecond aww amazing I'm so happy for you. How many DPO does it make you?

I tested this morning, couldn't see anything to the naked eye but played around with the colours and seen this. Probably an evap or something/just the shadow of what would be a line so I'm not holding out hope.

Do you know when temperature drops if AF is coming? Is it usually the day before or day of? I'm due on Saturday so 2 days to go and still 8/9 DPO depending on which app I look at.

That’s great that it’s still high. Do you know when/if you’re going to test?
My temp went up slightly again today. Got a faint line on a less sensitive test today too. Praying it sticks.

@TTCnumbertwo2 haha that's so funny! I'm at the gym at the moment and feel as though I'm going to pass out! Don't know if it's cause AF or something else 🤞🏼🤞🏼 don't normally feel faint at the gym!

@TTCnumbertwo2 I'm just impressed you managed 8 days in a row of DTD 😂😂

I did the same this morning, it wasn't as far back and mine was 36.38 but literally two seconds later I did it properly and it was 36.68. I went with the higher one because that was the test that I did properly

TTCnumbertwo2 · 29/03/2023 11:17

Congratulations @Ttcsecond ! ❤️ those cramps ended up being implantation then! good luck with the pregnancy , yes keep us updated

@Angelselevenx this is my graph. I found out something annoying today. This morning I was trying not to wake my toddler and somehow I accidentally didn’t put the thermometer right at the back of my tongue properly and it read 36.11… then I did it straight away again at the very back of my tongue and it read 36.32 😫I then though what the hell so I did it again to see if it would be consistent and it went up again to 36.54! how can it change so much straight after each other! I ended up logging it as 36.11 as that was the first test I took but not far at the back of my tongue 🤷🏻‍♀️

@Angelselevenx
my graph went down at 8dpo. And then had gone up again today so I don’t give up hope.
Also took another test today and there is a definite pink line!

@Ttcsecond my graph today, not feeling very hopeful I thought it would've raised again if I was going to get a BFP. 8dpo today though and AF due in 4 days

🤣 bless you. No that photo was taken later but I thought I saw a line within the 3 minutes. I’ll do another one tomorrow and see. AF due in 7 days. On the first response website it said not to test until Thursday so very early.

@Ttcsecond I've been staring at your test for the past 5 minutes because I have no test of my own to stare at 😂😂 I'm sure I see a vvvvvvfl you know, did you take the photo within the timeframe?
