Fitbit & TTC

[dangle90]

Does anyone else use there heart rate monitor on there Fitbit to monitor when they have ovulated? Saw a post on here recently where someone was but can't find it now. Been reading up on it thought it would be interesting to see how many of you guys did?

When are you due to ovulate?? Are you able to notice in last months when you ovulated?? My hr is just continually raising now......

My HR seems to rise after ovulation unfortunately. I don't know if I'll ovulate Tuesday or Friday as the last few months it's been day 12 or 15! Nightmare!

Is the rise not a good thing??

I'm starting to look at heart rate during my cycle. What do you think of my chart? I think I ovulated on 7/8 which would correspond with the spike but now has dropped....not looking hopeful is it? 😢

Mmmm have you looked at other charts? Here is mine..... I think I ovulated between 2-4th June..... not sure when I would have implanted cause there isn't a noticeable dip apart of 1 here n there! Are you sure you have ovulated??

Well I'm fairly sure, had some cramping and got positives on OPKs but then again I suppose that doesn't mean anything. AF is due Tuesday/Wednesday so I guess it's the waiting game. X

Sorry I meant so I can't use it for timing DTD haha

Any one still here?

Hello! I actually searched for this thread earlier! I've just got a Fitbit and trying to track my hr! The graphs and explanations are really helpful.

Are you getting on ok? I was going to poas tomo....!!

I'm 9dpo today and hoping I've implanted today hoping to see my heart rate go up tomorrow!!

Snap!!! Mine has dipped today abs I've had cramping for 24hrs, when are you testing?!?!

I've already tested twice as I thought I was further along but I fiddled with my chart today and now I'm 9dpo. I'll try again tomorrow!!

Eeeek! Fingers crossed! Are you using frers?! Is this your first??

At the moment I'm just using the cheapie strips that came with my opks.

This is my 8th cycle but TTC #1

What about you?

Also ttc#1 10th cycle. Gone all out this month.

Keeping positive! ☺️

@juneybean bfn this morning at 9dpo.... on a frer though.... hr stayed the same.... if no rise tomo I fear I'm out.

Fingers crossed for you!!! 😘

Oh wow. I did think wether my cycle was effecting the change but I'm not sure. I can see it dips and rises but I'm not sure if it coincides with anything.

9dpo is still so early EMH

My heart rate has stay the same too!

Mouse do you temp at all? I chart my temperature too and I can see my heart rate increases when my temp does i.e. after ovulation.

Thanks @juneybean did you test today?

@MouseLove hiya! I've gatecrashed your guys thread!

Think I'll hang off until Friday if I possibly can!

Juney I stopped temping last year as my charts were random. I have a thyroid problem that didn't really help at the time so kinda gave up. I'm not tracking anything at the moment (apart from CM) but I think if we go over the year mark next month I'll get back to charting things.

I didn't test today I couldn't face the disappointment if it was negative :(

Around the time of EWCM do you notice any patterns in your heart rate?

Anyone still here? I've created a graph tracking last month and this month. Am I looking for a dip at the end of this week when I'm around 9dpo and then a steady increase?
The vertical axis is hr, horizontal is cycle day.
ta.

I just checked my fitbit chart after reading this - it's so fascinating! I ov'd around 17th aug

Are you sure you ovulated on the 17th? I thought you were supposed to dip at ovulation, but maybe I've gotten it arseways!
Are you temping? I'm not and I'm torn on whether to start next month for a more accurate reading.

Hi @Holyshmoly nope I'm not sure!! I don't temp or anything at the moment I'm just using a fairly basic app to track everything and I'm going off that. I also got the usual sore boobs around 18th/19th which I thought happened after you ovulated?
After reading this whole thread I've been questioning my expected ov date too...
