Tracking your cycle and possible BFP using RHR - part 3

[Juno231]

Hi ladies,

This is for all of us with heart rate monitors who wish to help each other analyse the RHR patterns throughout our cycles.

Early research shows there's a correlation with increasing RHR and BFPs - so let's try and spot some together!

Just getting my place on the new thread. I’m only cd8 atm so not much to report. HR is currently at its lowest like it always is at this point.

Thank you @Juno231 💕

Jumping onto this thread, hope that is ok, as I'm spreadsheet nerd. Currently 8dpo. My HR has been on a crazy increase since ovulation but not sure if that's heat related or not as it's starting to level out.

@fran2020 @mumof23188 @sarahTTC2020

Sorry trying to remember what you all wrote to reply to you all 😂

@mumof23188 I can see a squinter on your test 🤞🏻🤞🏻

@fran2020 you still have a bit of time before Thursday so could just be a bit early?

@sarahTTC2020 any update? Nothing from me yet but managed to push day 3 bloods back at least.

Got my day 21 blood results from doctor - confirmed I ovulated and all levels look fine. Apparently I’m slightly low on Vit d but still in normal range. My only worry is that I take a supplement which is 3 x NRV so not sure if I need to take an extra supplement?!

Thank you @Juno231

Hello, will catch up on the old thread when I get chance, they move fast don’t they!

Positive opk yesterday (circled in green) so I think that means I’m 1dpo? Rhr jumped a bit but I’ve also just been prescribed antibiotics for an infection so might be due to that.

Oops, forgot the chart

@mumof23188 I can definitely see something!

@mumof23188 yes that big dip a few days ago would definitely fit with implantation!

Fingers crossed for you. I think you’ll see a nice clear bfp in a day or 2!

I'm gonna test either tonight when I get home from work or in the morning. I've got tesco own but they're notorious for dye runs apparently? We'll see

@Littlebee1990 I wouldn't take too much from Fitbit readings tbh in general when I look at mine it's above 60 which is normal, but my resting comes out a lot lower.
I'm 3/4 stone overweight too and walk 10-15k steps daily with a couple of exercise classes but not fit at all.

@LS2020 yeah that's true and my RHR has dipped all over the place so who know when implantation would've happened if it did! That's good you definitely ovulated and most things are ok. Maybe double check with the doctor about vitamin d.

@HopefulHopper you more likely ovulated today instead. As the opks indicate the surge which happens before ovulation.

@mumof23188 I'm rubbish seeing things! But definitely test again in a few days 😊

I'm going to wait and see if I get any of my usual pre AF spotting in the next couple of days. Maybe test again on Wednesday if I've not had it.

@Fran2020 well my RHR has taken a dive but I still have no AF and my boobs are killing me and finally started being veiny so you never know what’s going on 😂
I don’t like how excited I am but this has never happened before! I did get the smallest bit of blood an hour a go, tho like so small I’m not even sure was a speck of discoloured toilet paper so trying not to get too excited 😞 been back to toilet twice tho and still nothing and not really had any cramps

Hmm just got a BFN on a morrisons pregnancy test but I had the smallest amount of pee as literally went half an hour ago so that may have not been the best idea 🤣

@LS2020 I've never dipped for O before so fingers crossed it's a good sign...doubt it though, my chart is so boring this month 😭
I did bang through a literal tonne of fruit and veg the past two months so maybe my diet improvements have lowered the HR - my cardio fitness score shot up to 47-50 and I'm the most unfit skinny girl in the world haha! 😂

Forgot to stick mine on!

@mrswilso it is very up and down though isn’t it, how strange! Haha I thought I was doing well at the 38 mark, can’t dream of the 47-50 heights of cardio fitness 🤣

@LS2020 haha you melon, hold it in for a few hours or wait til morning ☺️

@SarahTTC2020 see this is why I don’t test because I always do the daftest times 😂😂
Tbf cramping pretty strongly now so thinking AF is on her way. How are you doing?

I feel like its a faint line here?

@LS2020 amazing news about the bloods! Ah you nilly 😆. Test in the morning if no sign of AF. I’m crossing everything for you!

@HopefulHopper thank you 🤞☺️. I’d say today for ov too. Good luck for this cycle.

@Moominmiss thank you! That’s what I was thinking. I’ve never had a graph like this so its hard not to get excited.

@Fran2020 I’m going to test again in the morning! Good idea about waiting to test. Good luck lovely 🤞.

I think I’ve got a squinter on a boots strip too. The tests are 25mlu tho!

I have a chart to add if I may? I'm currently 11 weeks pregnant and thought my chart fits what you are checking for. I had an initial rise at what looks like implantation, falling rates by 6 weeks, a big dip around 8 weeks and its back on the way up again now. I've had a previous mmc so around 8 weeks I was studiously not looking anymore. We had a good scan last Monday at 10 weeks so fingers crossed for my nhs scan in 2 weeks time.

Lmp: 2/6
Ovulation: 14/6
Bfp: 25/6

Get a frer and try in a day or two. Try changing the colours too. This was my 25/6 in normal colour and negative and my frer 2 days later

@Esssa thank you for sharing your graph! Interesting to see. I’ve had a go and tweaked mine.

@mumof23188 omg!!!! That is a bfp!!!! ESP on the frer!!! Woohoo! Buzzing!

@ambs1994 do not trust Tesco , I had a strong line last week and it was false, soul destroying :( xx

This was my false positive , do not buy tesco

@Mrsi2020 ah do you really think so? I just don’t believe it! How are you doing? I hope you are ok? Any news?

God that Tesco test is just shocking 😭. I’m so sorry!
