Does anyone know what this could mean. Last month I started bbt and my temps were very consistent but this cycle it’s different. Could it be low progesterone maybe?
I’ll add last cycle and this cycle graphs.

This was mine this month, was a bit all over really, but I got a bfp yesterday! Have also noticed my resting heart rate has risen by 20bpm too, don’t count yourself out until af arrives, literally anything’s possible :)

My chart literally looks different every month, i think a lot of things can affect it so it's really hard to say anything definitive. Mine always looks a lot more like @Sottishmamaof4

Wouldn't say it's low progestogen as usually that means less variation in temps (so not as much rise after ovu) and yours looks fine, and your Luteal phase looks fine too, so doesn't seem to be any issues to me

My temps ended up stabilizing I’m 11 dpo today.

@emmatcc1 your temps are so much more stable than mine are! mine are like zig zags, but probably inconsistent waking time for me!

emmatcc1 · 02/05/2023 10:42

@suz2285 I don’t measure at the same time everyday it’s around 6-8 am but I do vaginally that’s why it doesn’t fluctuate as much.

Are you using a BBT thermometer to 2 decimal places? 1 dp isn't really accurate enough.

emmatcc1 · 02/05/2023 10:44

No I don’t but it works fine to give me an idea where I’m at

Definitely looking promising- you have what could be a triphasic chart there! (And you're right, although 2dp is best, there seems to be enough for FF to work with there....)

emmatcc1 · 02/05/2023 11:52

That’s what I was thinking but ff hasn’t detected it.

I think it only does the fancy things like extra lines when you have the full version. Everything crossed for you though!

emmatcc1 · 02/05/2023 12:58

I’ll update tomorrow if it dropped. Af is due on Friday and so far I haven’t had any cramps only slight left side pinching yesterday.

suz2285 · 02/05/2023 15:45

Interesting @emmatcc1 you're right i think temping vaginally seems to produce much less fluctuation! Chart does look very positive so far... i've looked through a lot of charts on fertility friend and it's interesting to me how different they all look by the time they are BFP!

emmatcc1 · 03/05/2023 10:06

My temps went down a bit today so fully expecting af in two days.

OP posts:
curliegirlie · 03/05/2023 10:45

Don't count yourself out yet - my chart with my soon to be 5 year old wasn't looking brilliant just before I got my BFP... Fingers crossed for you!

I know but I feel very bloated and annoyed at everything so it’s most likely af.

I’m out temp dropped to cover line.

Hi everyone,

Can someone please help me
make sense of my chart? Do I still have a chance?
I have regular 30-32 days cycles.
I swore I wouldn’t symptom spot this month as I felt like I had all the symptoms before and nothing happened so I’m just charting.
I take my temp around the same time everyday, I just input the info in the app at different times.

Could my 8dpo drop today be implantation?
Other than some breast sensitivity or heaviness I don’t feel absolutely anything.
The months I had all sorts of cramps and pains and spottinngs and also way bigger boobs.

@alexalexalex18 I get a temp drop around 7/8dpo every month. Ive read it’s due to a second estrogen surge. Also it’s not much of a drop on your chart, so I wouldn’t really pay much attention to it. Trends are more important than individual temps.

As you’ve mentioned, symptom spotting is a waste of time. In my 12 months ttc I’ve had every combination of possible pregnancy symptoms and not one bfp, so I don’t bother any more. It was a waste of my time and caused unnecessary stress. The symptoms of PMS are the same as those of pregnancy until you’re far enough along to get a positive test.

Fingers crossed for you this month!

alexalexalex18 · 11/05/2023 11:07

Thanks @omgz
I wish someone would open a spa where you go and get sedated for the 2ww and you wake up after they did the test for you 🥹

omgz · 11/05/2023 11:09

hahaha @alexalexalex18 I think there would be a lot of demand for that, you should set it up!

alexalexalex18 · 11/05/2023 12:03

@omgz I’ll start a business plan when I’ll get my BFP 👩🏻‍💻
