BBTing our way to a BFP in September 🎉 cont.

[CatiaR]

Hi @hotmalibu94.

I’m good thanks, still bfn today at 11dpo but temps still high so we’ll see what happens.

@Ncl31 how are you today ?

the other thread got full so I started a new one 😊

I’ll add now all I can remember but keep adding who else I missed!
@pinkmarshmalloww@Huriya @thejollytrolleydolly @ginny93@MorningsideMaisie@Myna13

@hotmalibu94 sounds like you’re getting into your fertile week soon so that’s exciting! Fingers crossed for you this cycle.

@etaketak1991 just hopefully not too quickly, hoping for a longer luteal phase at least this month 😅

@CatiaR ah fair play! Hope you get an answer either way soon, the waiting is the worst.

6dpo and I've had really sore boobs and felt a bit sick on and off but I just don't think that means anything. Only time will tell! Don't really get very excited by these things anymore 😂😂😂

@Hotmalibu94 finally had a temp drop so will expect AF today or tomorrow at the latest 😊

cycle 4 starting soon!

6dpo already! Half done. And I get you. Exactly the same not excited at anything cause it probably means nothing 😂 fingers crossed for you tho and that maybe you get a longer luteal phase this time

CD16 today, with a big temp rise this morning and positive OPK Saturday so looking like I ovulated yesterday. So, onto the next TWW! AF is due Sunday 22 but I’ll probably test on Saturday 21. Going to try not to symptom spot, have quite a busy week this week so should keep me occupied.

Feeling more hopeful this month as I know we covered some key timings thanks to OPKs and BBT. I have to say I thought the OPKs might add extra pressure but it was really helpful to objectify the process and just plan to have sex when the stick overlords demanded it.

I might even skip BBT except in the fertile window until O is confirmed, just so it’s not the first thing I have to think about every day. Good luck to everyone else going into the TWW ☘️

Morning ladies. Can i join?
First month temping and 9DPO with a stop today. But also woke up an hour earlier due to sleeping earlier.
Using FF app which says my chances are 67% based on the data. Staying hopeful. I had a chemical last month. So that's why i wanted to bbt to see if my charts could be helpful and give some insight.
I had flu just before ovulation just my luck. 😔

@MorningsideMaisie eeeek welcome to the TWW! Best of luck 💕

@MixedCouple welcome! I had a temp drop last month too midway, then it came back up for a bit before AF came. I read a second surge of oestrogen can cause that to happen. Hopefully it comes back up tomorrow 🤞 and so sorry about your chemical 💕

@Hotmalibu94 ooh interesting. Thank you. I only seen people talk about beauty spot / implantstion dip.
Coundown to pregnancy says 9DPO likely implantation. But I need to stop foinf on that website. Curse it. 😂

Thank you. Staying hopeful but realistic.

I come from the medical field so I know statistically the facts about chemicals vut still...it upset me more then I thought it would.

@MixedCouple yeah I read a lot of things saying you can have a dip on charts whether you're pregnant or not so I don't get my hopes up about it!

@MorningsideMaisie welcome to another tww! Fingers crossed for you 😊

@Hotmalibu94 AF already showed! Cd1 again finally 😊

@MixedCouple welcome! I’ve had bbt drops in my last two cycles as well so I second what @Hotmalibu94 said above 😊 sorry about your chemical and sending all the baby dust to you this cycle ✨✨

@CatiaR Sorry about AF but glad it finally showed for you ❤️ Best of luck for this cycle.

@MorningsideMaisie and @MixedCouple Best of luck for the TWW!

@etaketak1991 thanks! I expected it to arrive this month anyway so glad its finally here albeit a day late 😂

you must be in tww soon no? Fingers crossed for you too 😊

@MixedCouple @MorningsideMaisie Good luck both of you! Fingers crossed for you!

@CatiaR Exactly that, it's a new start and a new chance! The best way to look at it!

@Hotmalibu94 how are you doing? AF is due Saturday for me, I think you said for you too? I've been getting a lot of cramps and the odd sharp pain but tbh that is probably just AF gearing up!

Hey @Hollie1802 just pootling along not paying too much attention 😂 my boobs are really sore, I've felt sick a couple of times but nothing dramatic. I keep feeling sick just before AF so might just be that. Hoping AF will be delayed at least 🤞

Thank you ladies 😍
I been keeping myself busy with LO and going put while this weather is decent..helping me loads and distracting me from symptoms.
Waiting super patiently.

@Hotmalibu94 It's so hard isn't it as so many pregnancy symptoms align with AF! I've also had sicky moments but tbh I had the same last month so not reading into that!! Hopefully your cycle will be longer, that would be a huge win for you!!

@MixedCouple it definitely helps to have a distraction! We have a litter of puppies at the moment that are going to their homes this weekend and so are full on! It's taking up a lot of my time and brainpower!

@CatiaR Yes, hopefully just a few days away, I've got the usual pre-ovulation symptoms so definitely in fertile week now. Not pinning my hopes on this cycle, but you never know!

@Hollie1802 Congrats on your puppy litter! Sounds adorably chaotic haha.

@Hollie1802 gotta try and keep it light otherwise we go crazy 🤪

aww puppies! Hard work, definitely keep you busy! Mine is almost 1 and still bonkers 😝

while we keep TTC thinking of applying to be a puppy raiser for guide dogs as well (when I can get my chosen reference to give me his details so I can finish my application!) so we’ll see what the future brings!

@Hotmalibu94 fingers crossed! It would be great if you luteal phase is longer at least!

@etaketak1991 exciting! Sending baby dust for you ✨ maybe this will be the month who knows!

@CatiaR Yeah it's hard work!! We have 10!! They are adorable but I would be lying if I said I wasn't looking forward to them going off to their new homes this weekend! Soooo ready to get my house back in order!

Aw that would be an amazing thing to do, and would definitely provide some distraction whilst on this TTC journey!

@Hollie1802 that is a big litter! What breed?

I know its insane but I probably don’t understand the full extent 😂 we puppy sat a coworkers pup for a night with my puppy back in May and it was nuts! They would not stop running around and being loud playing until they crashed.

@CatiaR Yeah it's mental tbh! It's a big litter and now they are at the age where they are big enough to go to their homes they are just not happy to be in their playpen anymore and are continuously desperate to be out in the house which just causes havoc as they aren't toilet trained! 🤦🏻‍♀️ they are sweet little things though and I will miss them!

@CatiaR oh and they are whippets!

How is everyone feeling today? I still feel really crampy, but my temperature went up to 37.1 this morning 😱 I seem to run hotter than you guys anyway as my cover line is 37.56 but 37 is high!! This time last month my temps had started coming down...not getting my hopes up but definitely different this month!

@Hollie1802 Oh that's a very good sign!! I've got everything crossed for you 🤞

I feel like my temps are back to normal now but I only got 4 hours sleep last night from coughing 🙄 so probably not very accurate. Managed to get in a very quick BD yesterday so at least I'm in with a chance this month, ha! Premom tells me I'm two days off peak, so not long now.

Sorry I meant my cover line is 36.56 😂 I'm losing it!!

@etaketak1991 oh no, poor you, lack of sleep and sickness are the worst!! Fingers crossed it's on its way out now! Hopefully you'll be in with a good chance this month if you are only a couple of days off peak!

@Hollie1802 oooh whippets! They are adorable and fast little things! My pups playmate when they stayed over was a lurcher so just a bit bigger 😂

my cover lines both cycles since I’ve started bbt have been at 36.70 and 36.72! But haven’t gone to 37 temps yet tho 😅 I think I run generally hotter since my temp drops in AF now are 36.52

luckily I don’t feel much during AF so I’m doing well! Waiting to get this cycle going but both apps disagree as to when they think I’ll ovulate so we’ll see 🤪

fingers crossed for you, high temps is always good sign! They say if its 18 in a row then you’ll be pregnant!

@etaketak1991 sorry you’re poorly, but glad your temps going back to normal, fair play managing to BD despite all that. Still in the running despite set backs 😊

@Hollie1802 ahhh exciting. How many DPO are you now? Hope it's still high for you this morning 🤞 my cover line is 36.34 usually and I've been mostly around high 36.4s so far. Definitely not as high as usual but hopefully it's going to last longer 😂

@CatiaR hopefully won't be long before ovulation for you 🤞

Temp still high today. AF still due Saturday. Tomorrow's temp might give me an idea, sometimes it starts to drop a day before, sometimes on the day so who knows!

@Hotmalibu94 @CatiaR I am 11DPO today, temps have stayed high and I took a cheapie yesterday morning after the high temperature and then immediately had to run out and get some more tests as there was a blooming line! I actually can't believe it, I really didn't think this month would be my month, especially to have these lines at 10DPO! When I had my miscarriage, I found out at 10DPO but I've looked back at the pictures and the lines were so so faint they are so much darker this time - I've got everything crossed for a sticky baby! 👶🏼

How are you feeling? Temps are still above cover line which is good, everything is crossed for you this month!
