[candycrush2298]

continuation from thread AF due 20/06 and AF due 20/07

@Elakiya lol I know its just for records but I am really anal thats why these temps that are not matching up are bothering me big time hahah. And positive vibes for that April baby!!!

Awww that sucks that you're feeling icky. Hope you overcome it soon. Omg I still can't believe the timer thing 🤣🤣🤣🤣 you kill me.

Ahhhh thats so sweet of you, I think that will really help them visually understand the steps they can take to try and help. Well done you thats so nice.

Do your opks gradually increase or do they just go from super light to super dark really quickly?

@candycrush2298 no gradual increase for me. I just get a peak when I am least expecting it.

Yh my BBT’s aren’t tying up at the moment. How does your graph look now. Look at mine it’s rubbish!

@Elakiya oh wow OK so its a quick onset. I now understand what you mean about having to BD a lot more because it could be a week or 2 before your peak. Thats annoying lol.

Whaaaat??? I think your BBT is looking amazing!!! Its pretty balanced not too many fluctuations you are doing excellent.

Mind is still a bit wonky. It looks better on fertility friend because a cover line has appeared so you can see I have definitely risen in temps cant wait for a cover line to show up on femometer because the colours make it look so cute and girly lol.

How did your shopping go with your niece? Did you end up having a barbecue?

Oh wow..I've missed alot lol

My AF did indeed show up..on time too. My AF was really odd. Normally I get nightmare cramps for 3 or 4 hours and then they dissappear only to go on to very light cramping for the remainder of AF...but this time round the nightmare cramps went on for about 14 hours. My luck!

So the first attempt was very unsuccessful..so on to round 2!

AF has finishing up today :D so on to ovulation testing this week!

And @Elakiya...your timer story had me cracking up lol!

@Elakiya your timer story cracks me up too 🤣 my hubby thinks im not getting pregnant because we dont BD for long enough so not enough sperm comes out hahahaha.

@candycrush2298 my OPK looks the same as last night, so confused!

@ZonesAndBones sorry AF showed up sounds like it was a brutal one. At least you can start testing soon when is ovulation predicted?

@Kaybobx hmmm how bizarre... definitely a good thing that you are bd'ng every second day so you don't miss it.

My monitor has finally stopped requesting tests and its gone back to low. It doesnt ask you for AF information about cycle length etc so I think its going to guess AF based on the hormones. Quite interesting.

@candycrush2298 I've put both tests in the easy@home app and they read high. My actual easy@home tests will be here today so will test with one of those later. We BD this morning anyway 😊 check me out, thats twice this week already haha!!

I'm glad the monitor worked for you this cycle after the pickle last time. I looked into them the other day, quite pricey!! I refuse to spend anymore money haha.

@candycrush2298 Mine looks like this today. Yours looks good. We can see the rise and it’s definitely higher than the temperatures before ovulation. How exciting!

Mine range by about 0.3 so unsure how my rise will even look.

We had to BD this morning. We didn’t BD yesterday because I didn’t feel well at all and also had to go and see my niece and nephew for nephews birthday. Didn’t get home until 11pm. I couldn’t find any clothes I liked so I ended up buying her aquabeads. Bought him a polaroid camera. They both loved it 😄.

@Kaybobx I genuinely hope that he’s wrong. I clearly don’t let mine BD for long enough.

He definitely gets a lot of BD though. Looking at last cycle which was 29 days. He got to BD 10 times. I think that’s pretty good going given that he used to get to BD like once a month max.

@ZonesAndBones Rubbish to hear AF has arrived. Major positive is that it arrived on time.

@Kaybobx whoohoo you're becoming a BD pro now whahaha look at that!!! Whahaha. That is great. Let's see what the easy@home tests looks like. Will you test with one this evening?

Yes so glad the monitor and I understand one another better hahaha. Much more acquainted this cycle compared to last whahahaha!!

@Elakiya your cycle looks great think you really getting in the groove. At least you got a BD in thats great stuff!! Since you not yet high or peak its OK to still miss a day here and there.

Aww the birthday sounds like it worked out perfect!! Well done on the choice of gifts.

Whahaha once a month 🤣🤣🤣

Got my coverline on easy@home just waiting for femometer to catch up it probably wants at least 4 temps after ovulation.

@candycrush2298 How much is the temp ris?

rise*

From the line? The cover line is set to my highest rise in the follicular stage which 36.25. my temps since peak day have varied between 36.32 and 36.51 so far. We will see how it continues to vary.

@Elakiya but yesterday and today were 36.38 so we will see what it continues to do. I hope it rises again so I can see a nice dip LOL

@Elakiya 10 times?! Wow thats a lot 🤣
Yeah i hope my hubby is wrong too because he couldn't go all that long even if he wanted to anyway haha!!

@candycrush2298 yeah I'll test again once they arrive.

I don't know whats going on with my chart but it looks nothing like you guys? From AF mines just gone straight up! Am i doing something wrong?

@Kaybobx LOL mine also rose after AF then dipped and rose. Don't think you are doing anything wrong. If you are taking it exactly the same time every morning after at least 4 hours sleep and not moving at all other than to stick the thermometer in your mouth then no you are not doing anything wrong. The normal range is for you to be about 36.1 to about 36.4 in the follicular phase of your cycle. So yours looks perfect.

@Kaybobx what app is that you are using? Looks nice. These are the apps I use lol

@candycrush2298 yup i've been doing it as soon as i wake up or move. Been getting plenty of uninterrupted sleep too.
Im using the easy@home app. I thought this was the one you told me to get haha! Opps wrong one but i like it! Really easy to use, much better than the glow one I've always used.

The easy@home is powered by premom. LOL sorry when I searched for easy@home it brought up premom. LOL. Maybe it is the same app but just looks a little different maybe??

@Kaybobx if you look at the images of my apps you will see the purple premom one which is easy@home that is why when you look at the image of my strip tests it has an easy@home tab for the strips. Does yours look like that?

@Kaybobx just searched the playstore I see there is an easy@home app sorry should have been more specific LOL. I think that one works great with the easy@home thermometer because it pairs to the app and does all these wonderful things. But if you like it LOL keep using it by all means hahaha

Hahaha ops never mind i quite like it anyway 🤣🤣 i thought if i have easy@home opks and pg tests it goes together haha!!

Lol premom is the big brand of (it owns) easy@home lol if you like it keep it. They all do the same thing anyway 🤣🤣🤣

@candycrush2298 haha!! Yeah they all pretty much do the same thing, I'm sticking with it for now. My easy@home opks have just arrived. Will give one a go in half an hour or so

@Kaybobx thats great share your results want to see if you getting close or not eeeep so excited.
