Tracking BBT - TTC

Angelselevenx · 26/03/2023 13:25

Hi everyone! It's our second cycle TTC and first cycle tracking my BBT and I find it all so interesting, I'm learning so much about my body that I didn't even think of before. I'd like to see others graphs that are TTC and how their graph reflected a BFN or BFP. I'm 5DPO and temperature dipped yesterday but back up again today.

Feel free to share your graph so we can discuss all things TTC and BBT 😊

@Angelselevenx No flashing smiley today. But good news is no more pink.

I don’t think I’m going to ovulate early this month as think I would have a flashing smiley by now if I was.

how are you?

xx

Angelselevenx · 16/05/2023 07:41

@Ttcsecond what CD are you now? I lose track of my own days 😅 I've got my clearblue research study call at 0930 today.

Glad there's no more pink! i wonder if it was the aspirin?

I'm okay thank you, CD12 for me so 9 days til O day roughly, unless it comes earlier but like you I don't think it will.

What approach are you taking this month? OH said last night to DTD every other day and then soon as LH gets darker everyday until the day after it drops down. Xx

@Angelselevenx I’m CD12 and predicted to ovulate in 5 days but it moves around.

I’m going to wait for my flashing smiley and then DTD every other day which should cover me hopefully. Everyday doesn’t work for us, get too tired 🤣🤣

xx

emmatcc1 · 16/05/2023 08:46

We’re all on cd12 how funny. This is my test from just now probably getting a positive today.

@emmatcc1
Yes today looks like it’s going to be your peak day, exciting!

emmatcc1 · 16/05/2023 09:36

@Ttcsecond so I should be expecting to ovulate tomorrow?

Ttcsecond · 16/05/2023 09:45

@emmatcc1
I think the test is nearly positive so yes would expect to ovulate tomorrow. Unless you LH rises slower and you get a peak test tomorrow. How’s your temp doing?

emmatcc1 · 16/05/2023 09:51

@Ttcsecond temps are low right where they should be. I also noticed yesterday quite some ewcm and cervix is open so I’m almost 100% sure ovulation is tomorrow. It feels nice to know when the day is since doing opks. With only bbt I was so anxious missing the day.

Angelselevenx · 16/05/2023 10:12

@emmatcc1 yay get DTD!

My natural cycles app has brought forward my fertile days but not convinced yet. Temp dropped again today so will see xx

emmatcc1 · 16/05/2023 14:18

I checked my cervix and it felt a bit more closed than yesterday so I panicked and did another ovulation test and got a positive!

Ttcsecond · 16/05/2023 16:34

@emmatcc1

Whoop!!! So happy you’ve had to confirmed. Hope this month is baby month for you 😀

Angelselevenx · 17/05/2023 08:44

No idea what's going on with my temps this month in comparison to previous months, it's having a wild time trying to stay stable 😅

@Ttcsecond I wonder if it's the b6 messing us around? I might stop taking it next cycle.... xx

Angelselevenx · 18/05/2023 08:05

@Ttcsecond how you doing? My temp seems to have stabled itself out a bit now, LH still low on CD14 which I guess is expected as don't normally start to rise until CD20. Xx

OP posts:
Ttcsecond · 18/05/2023 08:13

Morning @Angelselevenx
glad your temps have stabilised. you’re in your fertile week now aren’t you?

My LH is still low but got my flashing smiley today so my Estrogen looks to be on the rise so ovulation can’t be too far away. Xx

Angelselevenx · 18/05/2023 08:14

@Ttcsecond yay to getting your flashing smiley!!

Not yet, few more days I think. CD14 and don't O until CD21 usually so still going to DTD every other day until probably CD19 and then go every day until CD23 🤞🏼

How're you feeling? Xx

@Angelselevenx Thanks, I thought it was going to be another day of blank circle so was a nice surprise. Not going to get a chance to DTD tonight but definitely will tomorrow.

I go through stages of feeling really
hopeful for this month and then I just think negatively. It could go either way. How are you feeling xx

Angelselevenx · 18/05/2023 08:25

@Ttcsecond good idea, hopefully you get your static smiley soon as well. I guess with the digital ovulation it's good to see when other hormones are making changes so you can really pinpoint O.

I know exactly how you're feeling, I'm the same as you.

I'm just forward planning our D days and I've got a family member staying with us on my O day and OH is on nights, not sure how I'm going to manage a day D 😅 xx

Angelselevenx · 18/05/2023 18:24

@Ttcsecond are you having ovulation pains at all? ive had them on and off all cycle which I don't usually have so I'm wondering if my vitamins are doing something. That or I'm overthinking 😂 xx

OP posts:
Ttcsecond · 18/05/2023 20:54

@Angelselevenx
i don’t think so for me just feeling quite bloated. Forgot to say I also got pre seed to try this time. Will let you know what it’s like xx

emmatcc1 · 19/05/2023 09:39

My temps are rising later in the morning I usually take my temp at around 6 am and then go to sleep so this morning they were the same as yesterday and then when I woke up again at 9 they were a bit higher. I also didn’t ovulate during the night like always but rather in the late morning. Could it be the vitamins?

Angelselevenx · 19/05/2023 10:17

@emmatcc1 I'd always take your first temp so the first one you took this morning. It'll be higher the later you wake up as your body is waking up/body temp rises naturally.

OP posts:
emmatcc1 · 19/05/2023 12:18

@Angelselevenx Yeah that makes sense my temps went up yesterday after my cervix closed so I did log in the lower temps which makes me 1 dpo today.
