Any temping experts fancy having a look at my chart?

[Vap0]

Hi

Thanks for taking the time to look. Would this suggest I ovulated? My opks say no as they only went about a third as dark as the control line. I definitely didn't miss it with the opks as I checked each time I went for a wee on the important dates. This is my 1st month charting and am struggling a little.

[Sunnydays321]

Ooo snow it all looks and sounds really positive! You've got a great temp shift there and the bleed sounds exactly like implantation. I've got my fingers crossed for you!

Vapo, I would say your dates sound more accurate if you saw a heartbeat, you usually don't see that until after 6 weeks. The early scan measurements are pretty inaccurate in terms of dates. X

[Vap0]

Hi snow your chart looks very good! Will you be testing or just waiting for af? Good luck!
Symptoms here are sore boobs, tiredness, insomnia, nausea today but not sure if that was fear of scan, will see tomorrow. And ridiculously hungry this morning when I work up, so much so I was feeling sick until I ate.
Looking forward to an update.

[Snowdog37]

Thanks sunny and Vap 😊 I'm going to wait for af I think. I hate seeing a bfn.

[Sunnydays321]

Are you testing Thursday if AF doesn't arrive? Il been keeping an eye out for news.

Il attach my current chart for you ladies to look at. I had a weird temp spike on the last day of AF and my temp has been steadily going back to lower temps since. No idea what this means, but it seems less rocky than last month. It only been charting for 3 cycles but the three charts look completely different, different cover lines shape etc. I know when some people overlay their charts they are similar. Don't know if that's just cos my cycles are still random and settling after pill. 1st photo is current. X

[Snowdog37]

Here's my current and last cycle overlaid. It's pretty interesting how similar some things are, like the temps I ovulate at. Other things are way different, am hoping that's a good sign and not just my body being schizo each month. No 2hrly peeing last night, or cramps or anything. Just woke up hot. 😜 But I see a downward trend starting now so maybe af is on her way. I just don't get why I'd have the pink spotting at 8dpo for no reason if af does arrive? That's never happened before.

[Snowdog37]

Feeling like af is on her way... 😓

[Seacrown]

Hi snow when is af due? Sending positive thoughts your way X

[Snowdog37]

Thanks 💐 She will be here tomorrow probably.

[Snowdog37]

Or maybe she won't... 😜

[Seacrown]

That's a promising looking chart! When are you planning on testing?

[Sunnydays321]

Oooo snow! Test test test! :) day 14po and temps still high! Was AF due today? Xx

[Snowdog37]

Af was due yesterday... 😜 Still no af. My temp went down 0.12 to 97.77 this morning. The fact it's heading south means af is just running a bit late I think. I've got nothing going on downstairs. Cramps stopped yesterday, I had a wicked bad headache and felt rough most of the day yesterday, feel pretty good today. I don't want to waste a test so I'll just see what happens.

[Snowdog37]

Looks like the witch arrived just as I was getting my hopes up. Oh well, on to cycle 3!

[Sunnydays321]

Sorry snow, Iv only just seen this. Sorry about AF, I had high hopes for you this month! Good luck for next month. At least from looking at your chart you have lovely regular cycles and great pre ovulation and post ovulation temp rise! Good luck xx

[Snowdog37]

Thanks 😊💐 I'm actually relieved as I would have been about to pop right when my nursing program starts. Would rather pop around Christmas maybe. Although we are keeping trying as uni can always be deferred for a term if needed.
I like that my charts look like everything is behaving as it should. I don't like that I spotted 8dpo last month. That really excited me. 😝 It just goes to show that normal progesterone gives all kinds of pregnancy type symptoms. I have to remember that and not get excited!
How's your ttc going? My memory is awful, I can't remember what cycle etc you're on, sorry

[Sunnydays321]

Aw well at least you are seeing the silver lining! I'm ok, got a positive opk yesterday and really really positive opk today! Yay. Cycle day 19 today. My previous cycles since stopping pill have been 98 days, 48 days, 36 days and now this one should be about 29/30ish if I don't get a bfp before so all looks like cycles are settling more now which is good news. X

[Sunnydays321]

Hmmmm ladies, I'm not sure what's going on. I had a positive opk on Saturday AND a big temp rise... Temp sayed up since BUT opk really really dark on Sunday and still positive today (not quite as dark) which would suggest on opk that my peak was yesterday but LH still high enough for positive opk. You are supposed ovulate 12-36 hours after LAST positive opk, So why has my temp been high since before my 1st positive opk?? My temps sat Sunday were possibly unrelieble as I had been drinking the night before and temps taken a little late, but don't want to disregard them completely as they were such a big rise.. Almost a whole degree. This has happened previous months too. What's going on with my hormones?

[Snowdog37]

No idea... I'm confuddled every month! Have you had any blood tests for progesterone? That would show if you ovulated I think?

[Sunnydays321]

Hi ladies. How are you getting on vapo?

How about you snow, has you AF disappeared yet?

So I'm still equally confused! My temps were ticking along until this morning and I thought I was on 7dpo, but ff changed my OV day this morning based on this mornings temp and now thinks I'm 3dpo (grrr! It's going to be a long tww, and means we didn't really carry on dtd log enough, lesson learnt!). So my question is, which looks more accurate to you guys?

The new OV date fits better with the opks as you are supposed to OV AFTER positive opks and te first OV date on cd 17 would mean OV was before positive opks. Just odd that I had such a big temp rise then. Oh well, will just have to wait it out. Pretty sure I have ov'd tho at some point as got sore nipples which I usually get post OV (although not last month which makes me think t was maybe anovulatory).

The cross hairs on the 1st one were solid until I added and then removed the temp. Xx

[Snowdog37]

Yet another wacky cycle! Does it look like I'm not going to ovulate this cycle? Look how much higher my temps are this month?

[Vap0]

Hi All

Sorry I disappeared for a while.

sunny great to hear about ov and your cycle settling down.

snow your charts are pretty mad. Do you use opks too? May well be worth a trip to the Drs for a day 21 blood test to see if you're ovulating. Tell them you've been ttc for 12 months (can't remember how long you have been trying sorry) if you can as they are unlikely to test you until you've tried for a year.

I had a scan today at 8+2, she dated me at 8+3 plus or minus 4 days. All going well and it is actually starting to look like a baby . It's starting to feel very real and exciting.

Oh and ic hpts I thought I'd share with you how these pissy sticks don't work for everyone. I almost never had a positive opk and look at the attached hpt at 8+2 which is supposed to be the peak of hcg and no where near like the positives some ladies get at 4 weeks.

Best of luck to you both! I hope you get your bfps soon

[Sunnydays321]

Aw baby vapo!! I'm so glad it's going well for you! So exciting, are you starting to feel a bit better about it all?

Snow your previous cycles definitely show a sustained temp rise! It looks like you ovulate. I wouldn't worry about your temp being different each month. Mine are hugely different.. I can't overlay as don't pay for vip but il post my last 3 charts. The 1st the cover line is 36.25 (really low) then 36.5 and this month almost 36.7!! But still do get positive opks and temp rise so looks like I ovulate. Iv googled it and there are articles on fertility friend that say it doesn't matter if your cover line changes each month. Xx

[Snowdog37]

Alrighty then... Looks like I'm 1dpo now? Will wait for FF to give me crosshairs in a day or two I hope!

Vap your little jellybean is amazing! Can't wait to have one of my own 😊

[MrsPCR]

Aww Vap0 massive congrats!! Keeping everything crossed for you over the next month!! .

I am 33 weeks and beginning to get quite fed up, but at least the end is in sight!

Sunnydays I used to refer a friend, who was my other email address and sign myself up with a new account, then you both get is a week free VIP which I'd use during dpo. I would instantly close second account ready for next time but my original account still got the free days . This definitely worked a good few times before I got my BFP.

[Snowdog37]

Highly recommend FF too. It's perfect for being all ocd about tracking everything. Plus I love all their analysis tools.
