Tracking your cycle and possible BFP using RHR - part 3

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!

@mumof23188 17 is the maximum although I think relatively rare. 12-14 is the most common length.

@mumof23188 it was 68 this morning and now 60! So weird! I've got cramps and think they feel AF-y. My boobs are still pretty veiny. Awww yeah I bet you do, I hope you find out what's going on soon 🤞🏼

mumof23188 · 18/08/2020 21:40

@Juno231 thank you! So I could actually be around 14dpo today instead of 16 as I may of released the egg 36 hours after the surge? So AF could actually be due tomorrow!

@Fran2020 wow that is a huge drop!! Has it ever dropped that much before? I hope it means absolutely nothing lovely

ambs1994 · 19/08/2020 06:45

Think I'm out now. Took a test this morning bfn and then just woke up now and had some blood Hmm

mumof23188 · 19/08/2020 07:27

Morning everyone. Hope you are all ok?

@ambs1994 sorry you got a BFN. Think those blue dye tests are really hit and miss. Has AF started now?

This is my heart rate today! No idea what’s going on!

ambs1994 · 19/08/2020 07:53

@mumof23188 not sure really. There was a bit of blood and then nothing since. I've put a pad on to monitor it.

2alreadywantanother · 19/08/2020 07:55

@mrsi2020 yes u adjust it.
If u wake early u add .1 for every half hour, if u lie in u reduce by .1 every half hour

Fran2020 · 19/08/2020 08:03

Morning everyone! Nothing during the night for me but more spotting when I've wiped this morning and my RHR has now gone from yesterday's 60 to 56. I didn't take a test this morning as I was still half asleep and don't think theres much point really. My cramps have got worse today too 😔

@mumof23188 I'm not sure really, it seems to be all over the place! Wow another big rise for you- will you test again soon?

@ambs1994 Really sorry you got a BFN. 😔 I hope it's not AF.

SarahTTC2020 · 19/08/2020 08:51

Aw @fran2020 @ambs1994 sorry to hear this this morning!
@mumof23188 can you just hurry up and test and put us out of our misery please!

I'm 17dpo, still no AF but did another frer and still bfn. Guess I just didn't ovulate or something this cycle so just want AF to hurry up so I can start again 😔😔

Kona84 · 19/08/2020 08:52

I am back on the HR monitoring for myself a new Fitbit- went for the charge 3.
I only got it a week ago so not much to see and it was after my peak LH.
I’m currently 8dpo and my HR has increased slightly

mumof23188 · 19/08/2020 09:40

@2alreadywantanother thank you! After looking at it again I think so too as it started to rise after ovulation. I’m so scared to test again!! I might try a blue dye test this time?

@Mrsi2020 how are you lovely? Hope you are ok? Ahhh I might test this afternoon if no sign of AF!

@ambs1994 how confusing for you!! Hope you get an answer soon.

@Fran2020 oh Fran I’m so sorry!! Sending you a big hug. I’m hoping it means nothing for you and AF doesn’t show.

@SarahTTC2020 Sorry 🤣. I might test later. I’ve wasted 20 quid already on bloody tests 🙈. Sorry you got bfn this morning. Any symptoms?

@Kona84 your chart is looking good so far 🤞

mumof23188 · 19/08/2020 09:42

Just had a look and it’s adjusted it back by 1bpm to 68bpm. Had a look at my chart for the last 3 cycles. It’s so different!

@mumof23188 yeah yours is a lot higher than normal!

No symptoms of anything, on CD 39 so just hopeful it turns up soon, long cycles suck

2alreadywantanother · 19/08/2020 11:38

@mumof23188 test will u lol we are all routing for u

mumof23188 · 19/08/2020 12:02

@SarahTTC2020 yes it is! It’s giving me false hope! Even compared the year and it’s the highest it’s been! Do you usually get symptoms before AF? Ah I’m sorry 😩. Hope you get an answer soon!

@2alreadywantanother haha thank you ☺️ . How are you doing? I’ve not been out to get a test yet!! I don’t know if I will either!

chrissagcat · 19/08/2020 13:04

2alreadywantanother · 19/08/2020 17:01

@mumof23188 that's so strange. When is af due. U could be one of those that dont have bfp until later on. I need to do a fmu pee

mumof23188 · 19/08/2020 17:06

@2alreadywantanother I have no idea what is going on 😩. AF is 3 days late today! Yes I have another, might take it tomorrow. Can you see the faint line? I’m going out of my mind.

ambs1994 · 19/08/2020 17:16

So my friend said she could see the slightest faint line on the boots test I took this morning. Now I'm home, I've looked at it again and there is one there but barely, pink in colour too but not sure if its an evap or not. It wont show on camera though

2alreadywantanother · 19/08/2020 18:07

@mumof23188 I cant but the lighting isnt great. Can you get a pic with brighter lighting
