@Tryingforno2 Me too!! 🙈 This month has been my first month of charting - my chart is quite rocky due to timings, if ds has been up in the night etc, but even with that there's a clear difference in average temps before and after day 32 when I apparently ov'd (was thinking charting was a complete waste of time up until that point and had long given up on OPKs!). It's helped me focus on the fact that I probably did ovulate, just late, and that's why things are dragging on so much. Have you tried fertility friend app? Makes it very easy. I was using Ovia but it's long since given up on me and just says '?' where it would normally give any predictions 😂🙈

Tryingforno2 · 12/03/2019 13:39

Hi @TheatreMumma I will take a look at the fertility friend app thank you! Well I think the fact af hasn't turned up yet and you haven't yet had a bfp totally backs up what your app is saying and late ovulation would be the obvious reason for a longer cycle, ooooo gosh I so hope you get that bfp 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 yeah my temps are weird but I will download the app next cycle and input all my data and use opks and see how accurate it is at guessing ov! What time of day do you take your temp? X

TheatreMumma · 12/03/2019 13:48

Aw thank you ❤️ I have my thermometer ready on my bedside table and take my temp when I wake up in the morning - usually between 6am -7am - and always before sitting up / getting out of bed. The ideal is same time and after 4hrs continuous sleep, but mine seems to still give a clear enough indication. Definitely not worth setting a 4am alarm as some people suggest imo - ds is actually sleeping well at the moment and I want to make the most of every single second of it 😂

Tryingforno2 · 12/03/2019 13:57

@TheatreMumma thanks for the info I take mine about half an hour after getting up so will try it before I get out of bed from now on! Ha and yes I'm totally with you on that one there's no way I'd be setting at 4am alarm! 😂 xx

TheatreMumma · 12/03/2019 14:05

Oops, yes definitely as soon as you wake and before moving about! Have you got a bbt thermometer, too, as it needs to be accurate to 2 decimal places? It's really enlightening and a lot cheaper than taking lots of pregnancy tests too early, as you should see a final dip in temp before af or no dip/ a rise before bfp. Good luck!

Waiting2bMum · 12/03/2019 14:22

@Hannah192 thank you😊😊good luck and fingers crossed for you! Let us know xx
@TheatreMumma @Tryingforno2 I really do hope you get your BFP very soon. Still so strange and such a long cycle. Have you both ever used the app Flo? I use that I think it's great xx

@TheatreMumma yep I've got a bbt thermometer :-) how many days before AF do you normally get a dip!? Xx

Tryingforno2 · 12/03/2019 14:32

@Waiting2bMum no I've never used an app I will take at look at that one too! Xx

MrsP4 · 12/03/2019 15:01

@Tryingforno2 Oh great it's always good to have a cycle buddy! When is AF DUE for you?

@Waiting2bMum I'm so happy for you! I'm ok just been busy with work the last couple of weeks so kind of taken my mind off the whole thing, DH should get results back this week from Sperm Analysis, and I'm going on Monday for day 21 bloods to check to see if I'm ovulating so glad that we will have some idea of what's happening soon.

Tryingforno2 · 12/03/2019 15:15

@MrsP4 well I normally have a 28 day cycle with a 14 day LP but I ovulated later this month on cd 16 so I THINK I'm in for a 30 day cycle 🤯 wow it's all so confusing 😂 which means I would be due 23.3 what about you? Xx

Lottiepink · 12/03/2019 15:37

@Tryingforno2 I do bbt too, and have done for around 8 cycles... I used to get a drop the day before, but last 2 cycles I've had a rise one or 2 days before, then a drop when af has already arrived... so it's really not easy to guess it 🙈🤣

TheatreMumma · 12/03/2019 16:31

Agh that's just like it's teasing you @Lottiepink!

TheatreMumma · 12/03/2019 16:31

Not tried Flo @Waiting2bMum - will have a look at that, thanks 😊x

Tryingforno2 · 12/03/2019 16:33

🤣🙈 what with opks cm bbt hopefully between all of that we might get lucky one month! Wouldn't it be great if we had some sort of ovulation alarm built in 😂 x

TheatreMumma · 12/03/2019 19:13

@Tryingforno2 Wouldn't it just!! I've been flirting with the idea of the Ava bracelet for the reduced hassle factor...don't think it works for long cycles though unfortunately so that's saved my bank account somewhat!

ChloePD · 12/03/2019 19:19

I just got my flashy face! CD11, feeling hopeful that my cycles will be normal so soon after stopping the pill! FX for all of us, I'm feeling very positive!

ChloePD · 12/03/2019 19:21

My OPKs for this month!
