BBTing our way to a BFP in August 🎉

[Hotmalibu94]

Hi all!
My body has begun a new cycle in its quest to torture me with cycles that are getting a day longer at a time 😅 so I thought I'd see if anyone wants to join me in BBT charting this month!

DH and I are currently TTC #1, we started in June so are on CD1 of cycle #3 now and I wanted to start doing something a bit more to track without feeling like I'm constantly peeing on some kind of stick 😂 I've previously tried charting in April and May to prevent pregnancy but I hadn't quite got the hang of it yet so the charts were a bit all over the place. My chart since restarting BBT on Sunday already seems a lot more stable than it was last time so hopefully it'll give me some more info this time!

Please feel free to say hi below and introduce yourselves 😊 looking for as many friends as possible in this crazy world of TTC 💕

@Biscuitbeann your other half is right. And when your little bundle of joy comes, it will be perfect! But TTC can be emotional and stressful and hard work. And hormones all over the place don't help. So don't beat yourself up over this.
Yup! 8dpo today. I had a few cramps yesterday so hoping that was implantation, but who knows really! I've woken up feel hungry - like I haven't eaten in ages! This is strange for me because my whole life I've never been a breakfast person, and lunch is usually my first meal of the day. But I want breakfast and I want it an hour ago 😂
I also was super hungry yesterday, I just kept eating through the evening. Luckily we didn't have many snacky things in the house so I had to munch on relatively healthier snacks like fruit with plain yogurt & hummus with crackers.
Am I just a greedy glutton suddenly? Or is this a sign? Time will tell I guess.

@ginny93 thanks ❤️ glad things are starting to look like they're getting back to normal for you 🤞

@MorningsideMaisie good luck! I hope AF stays away 🤞

@Myna13 eek hopefully it's implantation 🤞 fingers crossed for you!

@Biscuitbeann eeek fingers crossed for your test! I think BFP just depends on when you implant so shouldn't be affected too much by the luteal phase length. My LP last month was 11 days so even shorter 🤦‍♀️ hope you're ok, I think a bit of jealousy is quite normal but I totally get that's not how we want to feel at all!

@CatLadyH hey welcome back! Hope you're doing well! Keeping my fingers crossed for you this cycle 🤞

On cd3 here! Hoping only have a 4 day period so I can enjoy my anniversary properly 👀😂 going to have to start thinking about BDing rota again soon 😂😂😂

@Hotmalibu94 fingers crossed you have a short period 🤞🏽🤞🏽 do you have any fun anniversary plans?

Can't believe you're already onto the next cycle. We all started this cycle (your previous cycle) together, but everyone has gone their own separate ways. It's kinda cool how different each of our cycles are. How our bodies work never fails to amaze me.

@Myna13 we were going to go camping but never booked 😂 so tomorrow we are going to our village fair, then Sunday we are going to the village fair the next village over 😂😂 and out for dinner in the evening. Just a slow weekend of pottering about, probably in and out of the pub as I can have some drinks 🙌

@Hotmalibu94 that sounds like quite a lovely weekend! Have a lovely time and enjoy your anniversary 🥰💛

After some awful backache yesterday and the EWCM the day before I got a temp rise this morning.
this is my first time using Ovusense so let’s see what it does or doesn’t do.
Kinda saying it’s a positive thing though.

@Ncl31 that's so exciting! Keep us updated

@Myna13 i will do.
this could make it break our Florida honeymoon trip though.
We fly in 15 days time! Eeeeeeek!

@Ncl31 lots of exciting times! i hope you get the outcome you're hoping for!

Ooooh @Ncl31 maybe ovulation then? Let us know what happens next!

Good morning everyone! Hope you’re all well.

Not much going on here still 4DPO with the occasional light cramping and feeling a bit tired although that’s probably just work being so incredibly busy lately 😊

hope to see more bfps soon if I remember correctly there’s a few of you that planned to test over the weekend or soon after 🤞✨

@CatiaR morning lovely! Hope you have a relaxing weekend. I was meant to test tomorrow but might be spending the night with the in-laws tonight. So will probably test Monday morning (11dpo). Will keep you all posted. I was really hopeful yesterday, but not hopeful at all today 😅

Morning everyone,
Sorry ive been awol. Ive been feeling very unwell past few days. Alot of cramping/pulling tugging on the right side. Also nausea without the vomitting and waking up with headaches. Just generally been feeling bleurghh 🤢

@Myna13 fingers crossed for you 🤞 have lovely weekend 😊

@Huriya aww sorry you’re unwell but all positive signs considering! Hopefully you’ll have a smooth pregnancy 😊

@Huriya aww! Sorry you're feeling bleh. I hope you feel better soon and your pregnancy is smooth! ❤️

@CatiaR you too! Keeping my fingers crossed for you! When do you plan on testing?

@Myna13 next weekend. I’ll be about 11 dpo then 😊

@Huriya so sorry you’ve not been feeling great! Hopefully your feel better soon 🤍

My temp dipped down this morning, still above cover line but this is usually when I see it dip down before AF (due Monday) another BFN this morning but trying to stay positive!

@Biscuitbeann how many DPO are you today?

@Myna13 10dpo today!

@Biscuitbeann it isn't over until af arrives. Don't worry about the negative you got today just yet. Keeping everything crossed for you 🤞🏽

@Myna13 AF due tomorrow still testing negative keeping my fingers crossed you get your BFP!!

my BBT rose up this morning from yesterday so hoping that’s a good sign as it usually falls below cover line the day before AF arrives!

@Biscuitbeann fingers crossed for you! You could have implanted later, a small dip of BBT can indicate implantation but heard it doesn’t happen for everyone.

you’re not out till AF arrives 😊

@CatiaR fingers crossed, I will keep you all updated! How are you feeling? How many DPO are you now?

@Biscuitbeann 5DPO today, been feeling good, only occasional cramp here and there or rather a tighter feeling in my lower tummy sometimes and today had one sharp pain down there but then it went away. Still early days but BBT stayed nice and high confirming ovulation and giving me my cover line so yeah. One more week and then I’ll probably test next weekend at about 11/12dpo. Originally AF was due on Tuesday but since I’m having a longer cycle I already know its not going to be then so will be expecting a week after that most likely 😊

keep us updated and hopefully you’ll have a bfp soon!

Ah and woke up in the night to wee which is unusual for me and needed to go pee a little more than my normal but trying to not symptom spot yet as its still too early 😂
