@MrsC2018 sending lots of love ❤️

@Chellooo how long have you been charting for?

do you temp at the same time every morning first thing? I.E you need to be laid down, and not have got up, had a drink, done anything at all.

mare you using a fertility thermometer, 2 decimal places?

do you do mouth or vaginally?

all these things will impact so just trying to get a better picture before I reply properly.

@Ttcpph so I've only really started charting again this month. I try to do it first think usually around the 7ish mark but it can be out by up yo 30 mins. I generally wake and toss and turn from about 5ish so could that be it? I'm using a bbt thermo an take it by mouth. Thanks for looking at it x

@Chellooo
i think you need to do a full cycle before you start worrying about whether you are or aren't ovulating, as there's no very many days worth of data there.
if you're temping first thing, then it should be fairly accurate but little things can throw it off. I find if I temp on the days I have to wake at 6 instead of my usual 7am, my temp is .2 lower, and equally if I temp at 8am my temp is .2 higher. To account for these slight deviations, you need a full month to spot a proper pattern.

keep going with it. My first month of temping was a mess, my second month was much easier to read and interpret.

@MrsC2018 so sorry to hear that. My last pregnancy was ectopic and I had the injections. I actually have a follow up appointment on Friday - 5 months after the ectopic due do staffing. My levels dropped quite quickly and I have been ttc since January as they kept rearranging the appointment and didn’t want to wait indefinitely. It’s hard to decide, mine was in my tube so I didn’t want to risk surgery and lose one, but I’m getting on and 3m feels a long time to wait to ttc. On balance I’m glad I did have the injections. It was good for me to take some enforced time out.

Chellooo · 15/02/2023 15:33

@Ttcpph thank you!!

SMG1992 · 15/02/2023 15:51

@MrsC2018 Wishing you stength in the next few days/weeks/ months and all the best in which ever option you choose.

Life can be so cruel :(

ChloeN · 15/02/2023 15:55

@bringmearainbow oh I hate the worrying in case it happens when they’re away, so fustrating 😡 I didn’t really do opks properly the last cycle I got so fed up of seeing low readings it pissed me off🤣

bringmearainbow · 15/02/2023 16:01

@ChloeN 🤣 haha that worked out well for you 🙊 atm I just can't be bothered but prob by next week I'll be more chirpy and want to pee on all the sticks 😂

Bubblemachiene · 15/02/2023 16:02

Oh right @TheBirdintheCave I only ordered them the other day, I've never used them before either so just thought I'd try one, it does say start on day 8 and I'm day 8
I've no strip ovulation tests to try but last one I had I used yesterday was almost positive

ChloeN · 15/02/2023 16:09

@bringmearainbow it was exciting the first month then I just get fustrated🤣 I have a really fast surge as well so don’t even get to see the steady rise. I only liked the clearblue for the flashy part made you feel like something was happening

bringmearainbow · 15/02/2023 16:12

@ChloeN I've given up on cbs I had a couple of cycles of like 9 days of flashies so I obv get a estrogen rise early and it did my head in 😂 I went for easy at home this time which I've never used before. Everyone seems to rate them so thought I'd try

Bubblesandballoons · 15/02/2023 16:19

@MrsC2018 so sorry to see your update 💛.
@Bubblemachiene did you look at the stick when you popped it out? I always had two very strong lines when the static smiley popped up, similar to a cheap strip.

Welcome to all the newbies. I’m just heading into the fertile window. Still waiting on my blood test form to redo the sticky blood test, the consultants secretary keeps ringing me to see if it’s been sent. It’s nice that she at least seems to care 😂.

2magpie · 15/02/2023 17:30

Sorry to see the sad news @MMrsC2018 . 😔
I've taken a test today (not pregnant, waiting for tests ti be negative following my mmc 3 weeks ago. Its getting fainter but still a line there. The Epu said to phone if still positive 3 weeks post d&c but its faint so not sure if i should phone or wait a few more days? I will attach test photo, test sensitivity is 20. Any opinions appreciated. Do you think it will be negative quite soon given its faint?
Having a bad day in my head with it all today.

@2magpie Sorry for your loss. The line is very faint. How far along were you?

Milamight · 15/02/2023 18:53

I was 8 weeks x

2magpie · 15/02/2023 18:54

8+2 this time. Last time 13+5 and it took 8 weeks to get a negative test x

Milamight · 15/02/2023 18:55

Sorry posted too soon. I was 8 weeks. Took 5 weeks to turn fully negative..

bringmearainbow · 15/02/2023 18:57

@2magpie sorry nothing worse is there 🙈 my first took 6 weeks to go negative and the second took 10 weeks. I was staring at faint lines what felt like forever. Def give them a call they will probably tell you to wait another week or 2 and test again

BudgetBuster · 15/02/2023 19:00

@2magpie 8 weeks would be quite high HCG. If you are comfortable I'd wait another few days. But you could always ring and let them know you have a very faint line and see what they recommend x

Mannymoomin · 15/02/2023 20:11

@2magpie mine took 6 weeks to go down after first mc at 8weeks.

@MrsC2018 so sorry to hear this news, absolutely devastating for you, even worse that you have to make such a difficult decision on top of it 💐 xx

Daniki · 15/02/2023 20:51

@MrsC2018 I'm so sorry to read your update 😫 you poor thing, hope you have lots of support. Take care of yourself ❤️

SMG1992 · 15/02/2023 21:19

@2magpie the line is very faint so maybe give a few more days but if it’s still not gone it’s best to be safe and contact epu
the worst thing I thought was if I got pregnant again and still had old tissue it would make the new pregnancy not viable so best to get it checked out

Ella31 · 15/02/2023 21:19

Bubblemachiene · 13/02/2023 14:54

@Chellooo @LMM91x do you wait for a static before u dtd or whilst it's flashing
How long after mc did u get a negative pregnancy test x

@Bubblemachiene it took about three weeks of my mc for the tests to be negative. I was about 7 weeks 2 days.
