Age 28
TTC #1
Cycle 3

Started tracking my BBT this month, temp seems pretty high to me, but I could just run warm. Had a tiny tiny bleed on 19th Jan, so playing the waiting game. Doing BD every 2/3 days.

AF due 10th Feb ish. Still not totally settled after implant out last July.

@honey that’s a beautiful line! How do you feel?

We haven’t been able to dtd since mom because I’ve been ill. Hoping to manage tonight...still not feeling great, don’t think I’ve ovulated yet. Decided to start using ov tests...only once a day though. Should I do it more?

@winterwarmers I dont think so

@HoneyCake86 eeeek look at that line! CONGRATS😁

I doubt it winter :)

Thanks, im feeling pretty wiped out atm, but i think thats just the manky cold my son brought home from school. 🤧 atm pg symptoms wise its just hot flushes and sore boobs. Nausea usually hits me at 6 weeks or so x

Has anyone read anything about eating pineapple core being good for implantation?! I just bought one to try it and I'm literally shaking my head at myself for believing this stuff... The things we do when we're TTC!

Hey @MrzE ! How high are your temps out of interest? X

sorry for the random question just want to keep things interesting whilst dtd

Congratulations @HoneyCake86 !!!

AF is due on 3rd Feb for me. Determined I won't test before then but can see myself Amazon-priming some of the super early tests by next week, this is the first month we've felt like we have given it a really good chance

@HoneyCake86 hope you get better soon! I know my friend had a cold when she got caught pregnant and I can't believe there's soooooo many things you can't have whilst pg!!!! You basically just have to suffer!

I too keep getting hot flushes and I've had sore boobs for about a week - all BFNs for the past 3 days and I get sore boobs before every period anyway 😔

Only cycle #2 for me and I already feel like it's never gonna happen!

Hii @felicityheather

My temp has been 37.1-37.2 for a week so far. Before that they were 36.3 - 36.6

X

@MrzE. My temp always runs about the same as yours :-)

@LookAtTheStars89

I thought it would probably be that I'm just a bit warmer than average I suppose. Thanks ☺

Thats very true 😂 i remember getting pg with dc1, i had a bad cold and was using a sudafed nasal spray. Had my booking in with the midwife and she was like, ‘nope you cant have that now’. It was literally the only thing that helped me breathe lol

Tbf im making do with home made honey n lemon tea. Its helping my throat loads without needing painkillers. One lemon squeezed into hot water with 2 big teaspoons of clear honey stirred in. So soothing, even more than lemsip x

@sophherts lol not heard hun but I don't think you can eat the core isn't it a bit hard?

@Owlpatrol I always used to eat the core as a kid! It's ok, a bit hard but definitely edible. Apparently they contain bromelain which sends blood to your uterus and can help beans to stick. Apparently...

@sophherts I vaguely remember hearing something like that! It's also something people eat to try and bring on labour! Must be the only times people eat pineapple core

Read the same @sophherts please report back! Maybe blitz it into something with a juicer !? TTC cocktails anyone... tries desperately to forget notion of blitzed pineapple core, grapefruit juice + preseed etc

@colourful86 how're you feeling today? Slowing down here thank goodness. Hope you're OK x

I've definitely heard the pineapple core thing too lol. Never tried it!!

@NoseringGirl @felicityheather @PassTheAfterEights I'll let you all know in a couple of weeks when I test! I also drank grapefruit juice up to ovulation so if nothing comes of it, at least I've had my vitamin C dosage for the month 😂

@MrzE @LookingAtTheStars89 - that's much warmer than my temp! I'm usually around 36 pre ov but can be as low as 35.8 and then after ov I'm 36.3-36.6ish but never higher than that. Is that too low? I suppose everyone is different!

I've heard about the pineapple thing too!

I'm CD9 today so just a bit bored and wanting things to hurry up a bit!

i’m also drinking grapefruit juice, also drinking green tea as that’s what i did when i conceived dd in 2016

@sodababy2 my temps are like yours. But I think they're a little under average. Like you say everyone's different. I'm also mildly hypothyroid which can affect temps.

It's not too low though don't worry. I used to be like 35.0. When I'm feeling my best they are 35.8 - 36.1 pre ov and up to 36.4 post ov.

Need help with OPK
They seem to be getting lighter today and before these ones the line was barely noticeable,
The top two are yesterday and bottom two are today
Am I to think that I probably ovulated today and it was picked up yesterday?
Had a few tiny cramps and breasts have been feeling a bit heavier today?
