thisisouryrfx18 I somehow have myself convinced that the more involved I am then the more likely I will get pregnant haha! Bit like how I kid myself thinking I am being fit when I just read about how to exercise

Right... chart advice:
@thisisouryrfx18 looks like your high temp on cd11 could be out of whack if you were drunk, didn't sleep well, or maybe took temp at the wrong time? Have you temped the whole way using the same method (eg vaginal or oral) I know you mentioned about switching. And have all your opks come back negative? I'd say you haven't ovulated yet. But the if AF is due on cd 33 you probably have 3 more days or so to go. At a totally random guess I'd say around cd20-cd22 you'll ovulate (guessing by LP) so get naked and get those BDs in!!
@Englishpetal89 I would tend to assume you haven't ovulated. But you had an LH surge. Keep doing opks. You may find you get another positive in a few days because your body will gear up to go again. But with the odd missing temps and questionable temps it's quite hard to tell. But get a few more BDs in. Your temp may jump again tomorrow in which case you may have ovulated with a fallback rise. But I think yours is yet to come. How long is your standard cycle?
@TwittleBee oooh id say any day now!! Great cm and a temp dip this morning!! Can you DTD one more time?? 🤞🏻

pulls up chair for Cakelaur's much anticipated chart advice whilst sipping tea

Cakelaur thank you chart guru! I don't think we will because 1) DH is on nights and 2) he actually thinks we should wait until we have results from the investigations I undergoing in regards to my pelvic pain, heavy periods and general bloating, back ache and toilet issues.

Cakelaur · 02/05/2018 14:35

@TwittleBee hahaha. You just made me chuckle. well that's defo a lot of things to get looked at. Are you hoping for a bfp? Or really chilled this month? I found I had odd pains after mc and back pain is crazy. So know the feeling. When are your tests starting? X

TwittleBee · 02/05/2018 14:39

Cakelaur Well I still haven't got my scan letter through but the tests are on the 11th. I am still hoping for a BFP as we have DTD twice and the last one would be within fertile window if I do ovulate today. I don't really feel like we should stop TTC but DH is too level headed

Hope you get on ok @TwittleBee

Englishpetal89 · 02/05/2018 18:41

Thank you all for the chart reading! Yeah, my temps are a little all over the place, but mostly within half an hour of each other (later ones at exactly the same time though after I realised what a mess I was making of it). Cycle was 33 days last month - begs that was coming off the pill so didn't expect anything stable!

I will keep doing opks and keep my fingers crossed lol.

thisisouryrfx18 · 02/05/2018 19:46

@TwittleBee and @Cakelaur that was fucking hilarious😂 @Cakelaur @TwittleBee is right you are the chart guru bows at feetcd 11 was all 3i think i was drunk the nite before i didnt sleep great and i did my temps later lol i started off doing them orally then switched to vaginally but im sticking with that and temping at the same time everyday. Neway hows u whens ur hols? @TwittleBee hows ur bubba is he better? I think ur OH might b right u might have a cyst or sumthin but taking a break from ttc is the worst!

TwittleBee · 02/05/2018 19:53

sophi22 thanks lovely x

thisisouryrfx18 haha glad you liked it. He is a lot better now thank you! I suppose at least DH is working tonight so I can't jump on him. Have you started cutting down on working late or having early starts yet? Make sure you do get some rest in whilst doing all this TTC!

OP posts:
Cakelaur · 02/05/2018 20:09

@TwittleBee well I've secretly got my fingers crossed for you that you get a nice sticky bfp before the results!!
@thisisouryrfx18 mark that temp as questionable and you may find your chart appears more 'normal' (if there is such a thing) I'm on holiday right now!! Just got in from a hilarious night with OH. Crashing out now. Ready for a day of sunshine tomorrow. I'm a little anxious about my approaching scan as I cannot imagine anything other than bad news. And we haven't gotten past 8weeks yet. So I'm just convinced we won't this time either. But trying to forget about it until after the hols.

TwittleBee · 02/05/2018 20:28

Cakelaur thank you, hopefully as long as tests are all clear! Glad to read you're having a lovely time away. Certainly use it to relax and not think about the scan just yet. I'm sure it will be fine and you'll see a lovely little baba there. Sending you hugs x

SassehMonsta · 02/05/2018 20:39

Twittlebee - probably right about the odd ovulation. I get ovulation pain (mitterschmit? German for middle pain I have been told) and can usually pinpoint it. But then I also usually forget to mark it on my app!!

Oh well. I was overly hopeful this month. I'm very grumpy and just cried trying to order an Indian takeaway on JustEat. Given up and ordered pizza for the husband as I cba to cook. I am having chocolate and painkillers.

thisisouryrfx18 · 02/05/2018 22:51

@TwittleBee im not doin anymore overtime atm so that should help me thats gd that ur DS is better x @Cakelaur enjoy ur hols u deserve it! Ul b fine i have a gd feeling bout it try and not worry(easier said than done I know). @SassehMonsta thats a shame treat urself to sum booze aswell only bonus to af i always say..tell OH hes to pamper u ❤

MrsV2018 · 03/05/2018 08:01

Did another test this morning and it's still BFN but I'm not out until AF arrives so still keeping fx Hmm

thisisouryrfx18 · 03/05/2018 08:33

@MrsV2018 the waiting game continues eh im still waiting on positive opk uuuggh

MrsV2018 · 03/05/2018 08:49

@thisisouryrfx18 best of luck on your positive Opk

Getting really frustrated about it all at the moment... thinking about going for acupuncture to see if that might help. Never really done anything like that before so not sure. Just want to wait for AF to arrive just in case.. used my last FRER this morning but getting some more through the post today.. might try and resist doing a test tomorrow though.

TwittleBee · 03/05/2018 10:18

I give up! My chart makes no sense this month haha! It dropped down again! so confused. Maybe today I will ovulate and that is actually the Ov dip. Did have horeendous shooting pains on right side on way to work. Think I am gonna cave and get some OPKs on way home from work.

MrsV2018 when is AF due again? FX still

OP posts:
MrsV2018 · 03/05/2018 10:27

Due this weekend so should wait until Monday before I test again I guess...

lolacola13 · 03/05/2018 10:30

@TwittleBee ....I got a high reading on Cb digital today and pains too today so maybe we're in sync again I usually have a few days of this then ov prob at weekend . What about giving the temping a rest n just using opks ? I found temping drove me mad .

thisisouryrfx18 · 03/05/2018 10:50

@MrsV2018 thanks hope u get a bfp soon it is a nightmare when all u get is bfns but no af drives me bonkers @TwittleBee maybe ur coming down with sumthin u said bubba was not well have u got a bug from him maybe? @lolacola13 is right id use opks instead of temping if i were u just for this cycle whens ur doc appt again?

TwittleBee · 03/05/2018 13:38

MrsV2018 yeah save yourself a bit of money and just wait till AF is a no show. FX for you xx

lolacola13 haha we actually might be!! I'll report back on my OPK tonight. You getting in lots of DTD? Temping has been good past 2 cycles, just this one is being so odd! Maybe that be a good sign.

thisisouryrfx18 Potentially could be coming down with something, have a banging headache today. But I'm also wondering if it is because DH hasn't been in bed keeping me warm as he is on nights? Dr app is on 11th for the tests, still no Scan letter through though!!!!

OP posts:
lolacola13 · 03/05/2018 15:40

@TwittleBee bless us and our synchronized ovaries lol. I have such bad back pain during ovulation . Yes dtd last night not sure wether to go everyday over the weekend ? Kip tonight and do it every other day ? I did get like six days of high readings before my peak last month so might not ov til mon

lolacola13 · 03/05/2018 15:42

Also forgot to say I never ever ever get a positive opk until at least dinner 6/7pm at least. Does that mean I ov during night? time using the ic so check this evening after holding ur urine

TwittleBee · 03/05/2018 15:51

lolacola13 I'm not sure actually but I know it is recommended to take them in the evening as that is when is best to detect LH surge. I had my major shooty Ov pain on way to work this morning in the car though.... no clue! Great you got it in last night! I never know what to do with timings. Some cycles we have been every other day, others every third day, then we have also done it every day over fertile window.
