TTC June 2024 ✨♥️

[RW269]

Thought I’d make a new thread for those of us Ttc in June 2024. I know some of us will cross over from end of May to June ! Wishing everyone all the luck ✨❤️

I've just been getting on with the day. Ovulation was only based on CM no tests but fitted in with an app I have that estimated ovulation. But then about 2 weeks after that I had the same type CM again. So no idea what's going on. I'm just going to wait now until next Friday to test again if AF doesn't arrive. I've got no pregnancy symptoms though so think it's probably a later ovulation.
Thanks for checking in x

the waiting game is a killer! Keep me updated if you feel comfortable ❤️

I’d be taking the tests to work with me 😂 but good that you’re holding off. Would that make you 8/9dpo?

Famous last words, I’ll no doubt end up packing them in my handbag and doing them 😂. I did that with the OPK’s as I didn’t want to miss the peak 😅.
Yeah should be 8/9dpo on Thursday.
With DD I got my first vvvvfl at 10dpo, but that was very diluted afternoon sample.

Have you (or anyone) ever checked out resting heart rate in correlation with ovulation? I’ve just looked at my stats from my Apple Watch and it started rising with the same pattern as my BBT! Could be a coincidence but it’s interesting

I’ve also been looking at this and my heart rate also increased when I hit my LH peak and has been slightly elevated each day since. I’m 3DPO today. X

So interesting isn’t it! Never thought of it before but was just looking at my health app and noticed the pattern. Then of course I googled it and there were quite a few threads about it.

Eek similar DPO! So nice to have people to talk about this stuff with and not feel like you’re going crazy 🙃 x

I would love to join you ladies, wish I didnt have to. Just on the end of bleeding from a chemical, sadly. Second loss so will be starting low dosexaspirin this time. Good luck everyone.

Hello all. I'm coming over from the March thread, had a MC at just over 5 weeks and thought as it was so short I could just keep trying and get straight back on the horse. Never thought it would take 5 weeks for my HCG levels to finally return to normal and weeks of bleeding. I had a period last month but the bleeding went on for 12 days and I didn't pick up a positive on OPK, I think cycle predictions on the Flo app are really out of whack because cycle has been so haywire since. Today is cycle day 2 and I have a better feeling about this one

Hi all, joining you for the first time on here. First time TTC ended early in a chemical last month but my LH seems to be rising since yesterday, so I am hopeful that my cycle is returning to normal.

Nice to have found people to share this journey with, wishing you all the best!

Question: When would you say is the best time in the day to test for an LH surge? Thanks

@Simplespell27 sorry to hear that. Sending baby dust your way and hope you have a positive cycle this time round x

Hi @LeleMR , my LH has been rising since yesterday too and was almost at its peak this morning so we're probably in a similar boat 😊 when my LH starts rising I test throughout the day personally, but I find it's always darkest first thing, probably because I'm less hydrated. You could peak at any point throughout the day and it comes and goes quite quickly.

So sorry to hear you've both had a rough time @Carportforme and @Simplespell27 🩷 sending you lots of love and luck for this cycle.

@Carportforme @Simplespell27 @LeleMR sorry to hear you’ve all had a rough time with the mc’s 😔. Such an emotionally draining time and wishing you all sticky beans.

I think I’m out before it’s even properly began, BBT dropped to below the cover line today

I started to use the cheap easy at home strips from 1 dpo and I will use first response and CD digital on 10 dpo. What about you?

I started since last October however didn't test LH daily but did measure BBT daily until I found out I was pregnant this Jan. Then I had a MC in March and a CP in May. So I started properly this Feb...I am also not symptom spotting : ) I used the Conceive Plus Fertility Lubricant and got pregnant each time.

Currently I am feeling calm and don't feel pregnant. Today is 6po and what about you?

I am interested in the resting heart rate in correlation with ovulation. I would like to buy a watch to monitor RHR however which brand is the best?
If it is possible, could you share your RHR chart ? I am really curious!

I also had two losses including a CP which happened last month. I hope your hormone levels will return back to normal! It took me 22 days to ovulate. Fingers crossed for yours!

If you don't drink water from 6 p.m, your pee will be more concentrated so FMU/SMU is good for testing LH. Normally people say SMU is the best. Normally you get LH surges in the afternoon normally so it is advisable to test it in the afternoon.

Maybe you had interrupted sleep which could cause a drop in BBT?

I have an Apple Watch, I’ve had it years so it’s not the best but does the job. I think any of the tracking watches will do it. The latest Apple Watches track BBT too.

This is my chart starting when I got my peak. I’ve just noticed today’s has also dropped along with my BBT! How funny that it’s coinciding with temping!

I did an OPK today to check (as normally it would be today I’d see my surge in my longer cycles), and stupidly did a HCG too. No helping some people 😂😂

Here is mine. My LH peak was on Wednesday.

My hubby got me the Apple Watch specifically because it has a built in bbt tracker.

@Marie1990x and @ScarlettSloth may I ask how up get your watches to automatically track BBT? I've struggled to get mine to do it. I can set a time for it to take my temp via sleep schedule, but it goes in as wrist temp and not BBT. It also doesn't give me a graph or anything for my resting heart rate, just takes snapshots and lists them, but only for the last five minutes.

I have a Series 9 Apple Watch, I'm wondering if it's a model issue. Many thanks!

Hi!

It uses your wrist temperature yes and then I’ve set mine up to import that into natural cycles and fertility friend automatically each morning so that I can compare it to my base with my other symptoms etc. Make sure it’s always in sleep mode and at least 30% charged and I wear it on the inside of my wrist at night (I think sometimes external factors like a fan/disturbed sleep does impact the readings)

I ordered the natural cycles thermometer too & thinking of switching to that at the start of my next cycle if I get a bfn this cycle.

If you go into the health app on your phone and look at “show all health data” then click on “heart rate”, then “show more heart rate data” and then click on resting rate at the bottom and toggle it to a weekly/monthly setting, it will display as a pin pointed graph instead of a range.

I think mine is also the series 9 watch. X

@KittyFantastica mine doesn’t track BBT, it’s just an old basic SE model, but looking at the RHR it could give you an indicator? I just do my BBT manually

@Marie1990x @ScarlettSloth Thank you both!

I also wear it on the inside of my wrist and did find the readings settled down a lot once I started doing that. I do have it set up to send the data straight to Fertility Friend, I think I might have misunderstood that it tracks BBT automatically.

I'll definitely play around with the toggles. Thanks again! :)
