@curliegirlie I suppose it could be a slow/late rise 😕 I’ve read a bit this morning and it is possible/normal

curliegirlie · 18/05/2022 09:41

Looking back over my ancient charts, the rise sometimes took a couple of days for me…so +OPK, the temp dip, then a rise two days after the opk. But it was sometimes a bit more random (didn’t see a dip one month). Hopefully you’ll be up again tomorrow 🤞

LuckyMoonstone · 18/05/2022 12:04

@curliegirlie ah thank you, I hope so cos it’s stressing me out!

peachiekeen · 18/05/2022 18:12

So AF has arrived. My body is a prick for playing games with me! On the plus side it is cycle day 28 so hoping that my cycle is starting to get back to normal. Only 11 days after ovulation though so still a shorter luteal phase. Feeling all the emotions today. I'll feel them today and hopefully gear up for another month tomorrow 🤞🏼

LuckyMoonstone · 18/05/2022 19:02

@peachiekeen oh no I’m sorry :( good about your cycle length though, and 11 days isn’t too bad. Lots of people get on fine with 11 days. It’s totally ok to feel rubbish today xxx

peachiekeen · 18/05/2022 19:31

Thank you @LuckyMoonstone I had the sporadic bleeding on Saturday though so could have actually started then which would have been 8dpo which would mean my luteal phase is still at 8/9 days. Don't even know what to tell the apps as there's been nothing since then until today 🤦🏽‍♀️ it's gonna be fun to try and track next cycle.

Any luck with the ovulation lovely? x

LuckyMoonstone · 18/05/2022 20:31

@peachiekeen it’s a bloody minefield. I’d give anything to just be ‘average’. 28 day cycle, ovulation half way through, nice and easy. I used to be like that! 😞
Perhaps it was a chemical pregnancy? So the spotting was implantation trying to happen…
Hmm not sure, a bit of ewcm today but I think it’s drying up. Some mild cramps earlier. Boobs feels ok. It’s just that damn spotting yesterday that’s confused me so much! Theres no other explanation other than ov but I need my BBT to get on board!

peachiekeen · 18/05/2022 20:35

@LuckyMoonstone yes I used to be like that too! I didn't realise how lucky I was. I actually think it possibly was a chemical pregnancy as I had a faint line on a test at 9dpo but didn't count it as I didn't notice it until after the time frame and then didn't have any others the days after. I just hope that doesn't meant that my cycles are gonna be even more f**d!

Oh it's all so confusing lovely. Is there any chance your bbts are just wafty? I can't use them as I get too hot when I sleep and it makes me readings really stupid. Is there also any chance at all you missed ovulation and could possibly need to take a preg test? My friend just got a positive this morning while still waiting for ovulation. Turns out she missed it?

LuckyMoonstone · 18/05/2022 20:56

@peachiekeen ah it might have been then! Which is a shame but at least it shows ovulation is happening.

Well a tiiiiny part of me wondered if it was implantation… but there’s no way i ovulated a week or more ago! I don’t even think we DTD around that time 😂 I hope I’m just one of those people who doesn’t get a temp spike. I’ve done a lot of googling, it’s uncommon but it can happen. And I did have a throat infection all last week so that could be throwing it off… Only thing to do now is wait until tomorrow morning, check my temp, and may as well chuck in an OPK and a PT for the fun of it 😅

peachiekeen · 18/05/2022 20:57

@LuckyMoonstone I've got everything crossed for something positive for you! Whichever it is!!

LuckyMoonstone · 19/05/2022 08:20

no change to BBT this morning, and all tests negative. Still can’t confirm where I am in my cycle. I can only guess that I’m in the TWW, but not certain :/

theblueflowers · 19/05/2022 08:35

@peachiekeen sorry to hear AF turned up for you x

I'm 11dpo today and no spotting since 8dpo, but no symptoms either, so I think I'm heading the same way!

My temp is still high, so I will do the FRER tomorrow.

TheBirdintheCave · 19/05/2022 09:51

@theblueflowers Exciting! Good luck for tomorrow :D

What was today’s temp? Mine was 36.66, but unsure how ‘true’ it is as I had a disturbed night. Hopefully I can trust tomorrow’s temp and have ovulation confirmed!

Thinking forward a week, wondering whether to test next Friday the morning we’re off on holiday (hopefully 10DPO) or try and wait it out, with holiday to distract me until the Tuesday when I’m due on 🤔.

LuckyMoonstone · 19/05/2022 12:35

@curliegirlie 36.03, yesterday was 36.05. My lowest 2 days yet 🫤

peachiekeen · 19/05/2022 15:34

@theblueflowers that sounds positive! I've got everything crossed for you lovely! x

peachiekeen · 19/05/2022 17:58

@LuckyMoonstone I'm sorry all the tests were negative! I can't imagine how frustrated you must be feeling! I really hope you get a definitive answer soon in whichever form that is because the waiting and not knowing is literally the hardest x

LuckyMoonstone · 19/05/2022 19:12

@peachiekeen thank you hun, I think it’s just time to sit and wait now. Should have an answer either way within the next couple of weeks!

youngiesophie · 20/05/2022 09:18

Hi guys pls can u help me I’m going crazy I’m only 3 weeks 4 days. Had 4 ‘chemical’ pregnancies I cant seem to get past 5 weeks. I know I shouldn’t be obsessed w the line getting darker but I just wanna know if I’m gonna miscarry again I’m fed up. First test Monday fmu second test today fmu (tests r pinker in person and more visible lol). Had really bad vagina pain which I didn’t have in other pregnancies and I don’t have cramping 🤞which I’d normally have so hoping this time it’s different 🥺. Sorry for long post I feel so alone xx

@youngiesophie We can't tell you unfortunately, it's just a waiting game :( However, if you've had four chemicals you should be able to go to your GP who might be able to suggest and appointment with your local EPU (or similar) for tests. Fingers crossed you won't need to though and it will work out this time :)

youngiesophie · 20/05/2022 09:25

Thank you for the reply! Yeah my doctor is shite lol but waiting to hear back from consultant about if I should be on progesterone :/ Xx

curliegirlie · 20/05/2022 10:17

I had another temperature about my cover line so bbt confirmed ovulation - so I am now officially 3DPO.

Although now feeling annoyed because we didn’t DTD on ovulation day. Although we did (twice) the day before, and once 2 days before that. I’m hoping that gives us at least some chance?

Frida9 · 20/05/2022 12:23

Well I've just had my bfn for May. Started getting my hopes up because I've got sore breasts and have been getting really bad headaches the last few days like I did when I was pregnant before but bfn on frer today. No sign of af yet but I had covid 3 weeks ago which might have affected thing, couldn't figure out ovulation exactly this month.
Every month I feel so guilty telling my husband that we need to try again, he's as desperate for a baby as I am and I think he feels guilty about it not happening.

Good luck to everyone still waiting to find out this month x

curliegirlie · 20/05/2022 12:54

@Frida9 you’re not out until you’re out!

LuckyMoonstone · 20/05/2022 22:13

How has everybody been today?
No updates here. Temp is literally the same for 3rd day on the trot 😂 I think I’m 3 or 4 dpo
