OVUSENSE (ovucore) thread 2

[Peonies94]

Ready for when our current one fills up, only 100 messages away!

Thanks everyone! So glad to finally see a rise!!

@MO22 haha thanks, my partner is away for the next week so timing was great. I'll be glad to have a week off 🤣🤣🤣

@theblueflowers how did the appointment go?

@theblueflowers yayy! Glad you had confirmation! Lots of you ovulating this week it seems ☺️! Sorry I’ve been so quiet, covid has just wiped me out!

@Loz365 even better that you have nailed the timing!

The appointment was fine thanks- what I expected really. Everything was fine in terms of bloods. I'm to stick with the metaformin for 3 months, and if I'm not pregnant, we will go from there. I already have progesterone capsules if I do get a BFP, and he has advised 150mg aspirin, just in case. The blood test ruled out sticky blood issues, but he said that aspirin causes no harm, and there are other blood clotting issues that we didn't test for, so might as well be safe.

To be honest, his confidence that I will be pregnant within 3 months has made me feel more positive. I can't quite imagine it yet!

It's quite nice a few of us will be in the TWW together!

Hi Ladies
Just wanted to share.. FINALLY, sent my private fertility test results to my Dr and he has phoned to book me in for a face to face app next week, finally I will hopefully get a referral for the fertility clinic local to me rather than the one that's 3hrs away private hopefully get this ball rolling💗 great start to the weekend x

Temp has stayed up, woo! This month has felt impossibly long 😅

@theblueflowers glad the appointment went well. That's good that they're positive about it all, it really helps to have some positivity from the doctors!

@RMS0209 more positive news! That's great!

@Peonies94 hope you start to feel a bit better soon x

@Loz365 yayyyyy 🙌 charts looking AMAZING!! ☺️

@theblueflowers - that sounds really positive! Definitely help pick you up a little

@RMS0209 - ahh how exciting! So nice that the ball is finally rolling!!

exciting times ahead ladies! Lots of you in the TWW together too! It definitely helps pass the time a little!

Morning all!
Charts looking good all round ladies! Yours must be confirming soon surely @Loz365 ? I've had a big jump today, woke up feeling headachey and sore throat so praying it's not covid, have no tests in the house either 😬

@RMS0209 I'm so pleased the ball is rolling finally for you! Let us know what they say next week, knowledge is power in this journey!

@theblueflowers I too am reassured by your doc and metaformin ha, I do think it's a good mix with the other supplements we are taking so 🤞🏼🤞🏼 for us both.

Weirdly feeling ok today given it was my due date... I think I did most of my crying at the start of the week! I've booked myself a massage and having a chilled day with DH. Hopefully that there are better things to come.

@Peonies94 is your scan soon? Hope covid hasn't made you feel too bad! X

@MO22 thinking of you today 💗

@MO22 thinking of you today! Enjoy your massage and look after yourself today ❤️

I’m CD16 and ovusense thinks I ovulated over the weekend because my temp went up twice, but it’s totally wrong. All opk tests neg, and no ewcm. Bit silly of it to assume ovulation off 2 rises especially when it’s dropped back down to normal now. I’ve attached a pic. Hope it corrects itself when I do actually ovulate.

@LuckyMoonstone the ovulation should disappear in a few days if it stays low!

how’s everyone feeling in the TWW? What DPO are you all? Are you feeling any symptoms?

Morning!

Hope you all had a good weekend?

@LuckyMoonstone mine did exactly that a few weeks ago- two rises and it put me in my ovulation window when I knew I wasn't. It disappeared the next day and didn't affect confirmation when it actually happened.

7dpo here and chart is looking okay, although a little rocky! Trying my best not to read into symptoms. I've got tender boobs, and I was in the verge of tears all day yesterday for no reason at all, but I know that this can also be PMS so trying to ignore!

Last cycle I had some spotting at 8dpo, so I know I'll be on the lookout for that. Bleeding is never ever good news for me!

@theblueflowers your charts looking really good!

Hi all!

My chart went pretty high a few days ago (I've never hit 36.8 before!) and has stayed there a a bit although dropped slightly today... Maybe that means AF on the way in a few days? I usually come on at like 12/13 DPO and I'm 8 today so let's see. I'm going to have to test on Wed at 10 DPO against my better judgement, as go to Glastonbury on Thursday and if I get a positive test will need to decide what to do!

Trying not to symptom spot but have been crying at the drop of the hat and cramps but that Def is probably just usual progesterone stuff.

So odd that it's done that @LuckyMoonstone but good you're tracking otherwise and know it's false, how long have you had ovusense, maybe it gets more accurate with time?

When do you reckon you'll test @theblueflowers ? X

@MO22 it is only my second cycle to be fair. And if I remember rightly, I’m sure it gave me a false ovulation window reading last time too. I’m sure it will figure out soon that O hasn’t happened!
OPK of 0.18 today so it’s low but it is rising. Last month I was on the same level the day before my peak so hopefully tomorrow or next day I’ll see something good!

@LuckyMoonstone to b honest I found Ovusense so useful in confirming that I have a really quick LH surge and ovulate v quickly after that. My OPKs were a state this month, impossible to read even tho I was doing twice a day (I think maybe I was too diluted in the evenings also to get a clear read) and ovusense saying OVULATION TODAY made me and DH get our shit together this cycle (he had covid so was v resistant in the fertile window lol). Then it was confirmed day after and OPKs were a fat lot of good, so I think trying for the first few cycles (this is only my 3 too) a few of the options is the best bet... Hoping to get to a point where ovusense predicts a window but think that might take time? I mean also, hoping to get bloody pregnant as a priority ha, but if not at least getting accurate ovulation!

@MO22 yeah I know what you mean, it will take time to get an accurate prediction each month. although my cycles are all over the place, I don’t think ovusense will ever get its prediction right, I’ll just keep surprising it 🙈 but on a positive note it’s nice to have confirmation that you have ovulated, helps me feel less broken lol

@LuckyMoonstone honestly I'd pay the money for that alone... I was wary of BBT making me more obsessed but it's so reliving having it confirmed each month!

@MO22 i agree!

Hi everyone! 👋🏼

OvuSense confirmed my ovulation on CD27 so 4DPO for me. It's the latest I've ovulated in the last few months which is frustrating but hoping we've covered enough with DTD so let's see what happens!

@LuckyMoonstone totally get the whole 'not broken' feeling!! I'm like 'at least my body eventually does what it's supposed to' hahaha

@MO22 @theblueflowers both your charts looks great! Fingers crossed for you both. We need another positive in this group!

Last month I started spotting at 9DPO so I think it I can make it to 11DPO with no signs I'll start testing then. So far I've managed to avoid symptoms spotting but I swear the TWW feels longer and longer each time 🙃

@Loz365 i feel your pain, last cycle I ovulated on something like CD35 😩 i can’t go through that again!

@MO22 your chart is looking great! The changes in those temps are so tiny, I really don't think you can tule yourself out yet.

I think I'm going to try to hold out till Friday, which will put me at 11dpo and should be pretty conclusive. Had a mad moment yesterday where I almost tested at 7dpo but talked myself down. Ridiculous!

I am having the same symptoms as you, but am doing my very best to ignore and remind myself that it's just progesterone.

Last cycle I had some spotting at 8dpo, which obviously turned into AF, so I'm on alert for that today, as if my body is actually going to follow some sort of pattern 😂

@theblueflowers how are your temps today? I woke up excited and got this horrible drop :( not sure I can deny that's probably a sign that I'm out at 9 DPO! I usually don't spot until 10/11 DPO (and I say spot, it's usually me doing a dig around for CM up there ha, TMI) so it feels a bit early but when I wiped today I saw a tiny bit of pinky stuff so think that's my answer sadly.

I'm gutted as felt quite hopeful this cycle. I think I'll still test Thursday AM just to be sure (if AF hasn't turned up full flow) before I go to glasto but I think I'm out and July is the next focus.

Really hope you dont spot today, got my fingers crossed for you!

Also how do we stop this bloody spotting before AF?! I never had this pre miscarriage? Is it vitamin b12 etc? I just worry that will make my cycle even longer!

@MO22 that sucks, but you are not out till AF shows! That seems really early for a pre AF drop, could possibly be an implantation dip? At least you will get an answer tomorrow.

Mine seem okay, but they do look like they are on a slight downward trend, so I'm trying to be realistic about my chances.

Re: the spotting, I have no idea, but like you, mine only started after my MC. I can't help but think I don't have the right environment for implantation if I'm spotting so early?!
