Tracking your cycle and possible bfp with rhr on Fitbit.

[Alicespring]

I saw a thread about this back from 2019, a few people noticed their resting heart rate started to increase steadily after ovulation and they got there bfp. (Although people did report it rose then dropped before AF)

Just wondering if anyone on here has tracked and got a definite bfp?

I'm currently 10dpo and my heart rate has jumped from 60bpm to 67bpm since ovulation.

Not sure when my period is due as they are irregular.

Attached my chart too!

Hi everyone esp to the girls who mentioned me specifically.

I think this is going to be another fail from me :(

My tests are getting lighter. I know for me this is not a good sign. Just waiting for next cycle to start 💔 thanks everyone.

I have inc my tests so yous can have a look but I know that 3 days between them they 100% should be significantly darker but anyways xxx

@SomethingAboutYou @biscuit13 - glad you girls are doing well! Great to see some positive news!! :) xxx

@BuffaloMozzerella I did have a period but it was two days earlier than I expected! I have PCOS so live in a world of 'my cycles could do anything'.

@Mrsi2020 I'm brand new to the thread and haven't been reading through properly but I'm very sorry ☹️ ❤️

@Mrsi2020 I’m so sorry 😩❤️ I have everything crossed for you!

@Mrsi2020 sorry it's not looking like your month 🥰

@Kona84 thanks for the tag I'm on week 9 now I can post my chart again if you would like to see it

Good luck to you all ❤️

@Mrsi2020 I'm so sorry! What number chemical would this be? Might be worth talking to your gp about it. I've also heard from a few on here that they get told to take aspirin daily from ovulation day as it is meant to help prevent early miscarriage?

Thanks everyone. @juno231 , 1 was 7 weeks, one was 6.5 and then last month was more of a chemical I was 4w4d or something I think. So that was 3 cycles spanning over 4 months from January to May and then this month who knows but its not looking positive. In one way I’m glad because I don’t want to get my hopes up.

I am v lucky to have two kids from a previous and dh has one so I know how lucky we are. But this is getting harder. We really would love one together. I’ve spoken to the gp and she basically said with having had healthy pregs and I had a colposcopy last year after a dodgy smear and all looked perfect down there so she seemed to think there was v little they would do for me atm with COVID. It’ll be a waiting game and even then we won’t get any help, (which I completely understand, any money in the nhs should go to people who need helping having their first kid!) but yes , that’s the current situation.

Thanks all for your replies. It’s always good having someone to talk to esp as we have decided we’re not telling anyone about any preg now until we know all’s ok.

Hope everyone in here is well today? Xxx

@Mrsi2020 I am truly sorry 💔 can’t begin to imagine how you must feel waiting for the inevitable. This TTC game is so tough.

I think I am out 😩. My RHR has not budged at all. I’m feeling very crampy and still nauseous. Had a strange stitch like pain yesterday on my lower left which was just above my hip. Think I’m just clutching at straws now. Tested this morning with an IC and it’s blank 😭

Just adding in April and May graph and June’s. June seems to be totally out of the norm!

@ls2020 @smileyt
...I don't wanna speak too soon but I'm guessing I'm 4dpo today and I've stayed up since OV 🤞🏻✨
How are you both getting on?

I’m super confused about my graph now.
Felt so sure about it yesterday.
I got my peak on Cd19 so assumed ovulated cd20 as usual on 16th June. My Hr has spiked since- rather than my usual dip after ovulation. I’m only 2dpo according to my app

No idea

Hi @mrswilso 👋 ooh I hope this is good news for you, does your HR normally drop after ovulation? I'm CD6 so just patiently waiting for ovulation next weekend RHR is slowly dropping now AF is done 🙃

@Kona84 hmm it's strange it's out of the ordinary for you! My RHR always rises the day after O so it's interesting to know this isn't usually the case for everyone else. I'd still assume you ovulated? But maybe it'll become clearer with your rhr tomorrow?

Morning! How is everyone doing? Still no change in my RHR. I’m expecting AF in 2-5 days time.

Hi all, how is everyone? Xxx

Hi @Mrsi2020 how are you? I’m out! Brown cm this morning 😭. Just waiting on AF making its proper appearance now.

@mumof23188 oh hon I’m sorry :( I hope this cycle is the one.

My af is technically due today, I got my first bfp on Sunday so I would expect them to be blazing today if preg was viable. I’m still getting bfps. Annoyingly if it’s not viable. Xxx

I am gutted @Mrsi2020 we aren’t actively trying. I just had pregnancy symptoms so took a test and got a faint line. Part of me is clinging on and hoping AF doesn’t arrive but in reality I know it will. I completely understand what you mean about the line. Still looks a strong positive tho? Have you tried a different brand of test? What about calling the docs or EPU for a blood test? Must be very hard being in limbo.

@Mrsi2020 it looks like cd29 test is stronger than the day before though! Got all my fingers and toes crossed.

@mumof23188 have you tested with a FRER since the blank IC? Hoping AF stays away for you too, I wouldn't be too worried about the RHR!

@Juno231 no I’ve not tested with a FRER. I really want to but now I feel it would probably be a waste of ten pounds after having the brown cm. might hold off a couple of days and see what happens. Just really hoping AF doesn’t arrive! I don’t usually have any brown cm before AF but I know that it’s a possibility. How are you?

@mumof23188 if it helps I just got 4 of them for £13 on amazon? I weirdly had brown cm/spotting before AF last cycle which I never do so I'm tired of how everything seems to be changing cycle to cycle!

I'm CD6 now and just patiently waiting for FW. Am feeling less enthusiastic about it this time though as it's hard to imagine it going any differently than the last 5 cycles you know?

@Juno231 wow that’s a good deal! They’re 10 odd pounds for two in the shops. Yes there just doesn’t seem to be any kind of normal does there. I’ve had so many symptoms that I don’t usually get. Nausea is top of the list 🤢.

Totally get you, just feels like a never ending journey. Nobody tells you how hard TTC is. Really hoping this is your cycle!

@mumof23188 that’s heartbreaking. Will you ttc now ?! Doctor told me you can get preg straight after a mc and it’s fine. Fingers crossed for you.

@juno231 thank you for reply. Both yesterday and this mornings were strong. Wee . Like I didn’t drink through the night or anything and todays was noticeably darker. I’m not holding out much hope. Can I add that you are an amazing poster in this forum? I find you so helpful and supportive !! I really hope you catch this month, don’t try dtd just on your fertile days , try having fun with it and actually enjoying it and not getting in a rut / that’s my advice!! I have everything crossed for both you lovely ladies xx

Sorry I posted that last message on the wrong thread!
