Anybody want a new Fitbit/resting heart rate &TTC thread? (Hr indicating bfp before tests)

Hello!
I know there are a few threads on this already but can’t find any recent ones.
There’s a theory that your resting heart rate goes up before you can get a bfp so a sudden spike/increase could be indicative of an upcoming bfp.
I’ve been tracking mine for months and have noticed that both times I was pregnant (both unsuccessful) this was true re heart rate.

For reference, it seems that a lot of people have a dip before ovulation followed by a spike around ovulation then it drops a bit and starts to climb a little, dropping again when af arrives. If it keeps climbing, it’s usually a good sign.

I think I’m out this month as mine is dropping steadily but I’ve had a weird cycle and am
Not sure I ovulated because I got multiple
Positive opks spread out over two weeks and didn’t see a heart rate spike as usual. I apparently ovulated around 23-27 (big window due to confusing tests) and AF is due in 4 days so I would normally see my heart rate climbing at this point - who knows what’s going on!

Anyone else symptom spotting and got a Fitbit so can share their heart rate chart?

Mines quite interesting this month....O day last month it was 65 this month today is O and it's already at 67 🤷‍♀️ April it was 65 on day of O. I know it's way too early to know anything but makes me kinda wonder if my body's willing to accept a change 😂

Watch this space!!!! Haha

@Bloodylegoeverywhere Shock Ohhh what does it all mean?!
🤞

Bloodylegoeverywhere · 21/06/2019 12:17

Good luck @mommtlato3 let us know. I have such a varied result to my rhr.
Oooh well its 50/ 50 GrinGrin but wonder if we will get the same result... when are you testing. I had niggling cramps last night but that can mean anything!?

Treaclepie19 · 21/06/2019 13:01

Ohh good luck @mommato3!

@Bloodylegoeverywhere I'm going to test tuesday. I've convinced myself I'm going to have a longer cycle and then will get a bfn tuesday and no period too 🙈

mommato3 · 21/06/2019 16:00

Thank you @Bloodylegoeverywhere and @Treaclepie19
Just hoping there's a better chance for us this month as we've managed to be really active through all the fertile week 🤞

Bloodylegoeverywhere · 21/06/2019 20:14

I'm not going to get any sticks, will wait for my temp to go up or down over the next few days etc. I did have 6 cheapies and used then all (idiot) when now would be more useful to pee on in the hopes for a line Hmm no cramps so far today, actually scrap that. I have just had a slight stinging pain on my right side. Hopefully not appendicitis BlushGrin I have been comparing my rhr charts from Jan till today. This month is the only good rise I have had.

Bloodylegoeverywhere · 22/06/2019 12:58

Hows your rhr today @treaclepie19?

coconutlatte44 · 22/06/2019 13:04

Good luck all, have my fingers crossed for you!

Treaclepie19 · 22/06/2019 13:08

@Bloodylegoeverywhere exactly the same as yesterday!
How about you?

Bloodylegoeverywhere · 22/06/2019 13:30

Mine went up by one again. It's making another m shape, I had this back in jan or December. It can still drop dramatically from tmrw onwards. Wink

Bloodylegoeverywhere · 22/06/2019 13:43

Not sure what's going on...

@Bloodylegoeverywhere gah! Fingers crossed it's just too early!

Bloodylegoeverywhere · 22/06/2019 19:03

I'd assume by now I'd have at least a shadow on that test or a squinter. Wink

mommato3 · 22/06/2019 20:23

Mine altered the other day. Went from 67 to 66 but today it's 69. Completely different to last month but only 1DPO....

@Bloodylegoeverywhere What dpo are you?

Bloodylegoeverywhere · 22/06/2019 21:52

That looks like a definite spike from ovulation @mommato3. My main spike was on the 7th where it jumped by 2 beats, and i also had a pain at the top on my thigh. (I've had that once before) so i think it was then? My app reckons I was due to ovulate on the 10th (which is only guess work) so I'm guessing 15dpo perhaps?

mommato3 · 22/06/2019 22:00

@Bloodylegoeverywhere I suspect if you're going to get a definite bfp it should be anytime now then. Good luck. Yes I'm assuming so as I've been using cb connected and got my peak in Thursday. If it stays elevated then chances are we've caught it. If it lowers I reckon I'll be out
🤞 for ya both

mommato3 · 22/06/2019 22:01

Us both rather 🤦‍♀️

Bloodylegoeverywhere · 23/06/2019 07:40

Thank you, dropped by two this am so am following my pattern for af. Good luck ladies Smile

Treaclepie19 · 23/06/2019 07:55

@Bloodylegoeverywhere agh I'm sorry :(

Mine has gone up by one. Doesn't mean anything though because it did this last cycle a few days before af and then started dropping.

Ah thank you. It's fine, need to stick with my two really. But fingers crossed for you though. That's not bad that it's still not dropped. Try that conceive plus gel and see if that helps!? This is me now.
