Hi Hun. In April of last year I was just charting Hun and we weren't attempting to conceive. Any BDs that I had marked we had used a condom. And then in May I tried one insemination attempt and by the time we BD without a condom I had already Oed so was it was too late. That is why I said I got pregnant last year in the first try, because it literally was the first try. Last June I also had 2 BD attempts in my fertile window also, instead of just the one. On CD13 of that cycle I got a pos Ovuplan OPK (but neg clear blue)and we BD that night plus again on CD 17 (this day I Oed). I wanted to do a 3 day cut off plus a O+12 attempt you see, but I Oed a day later than expected so it became a 4 day cut off plus O+12 attempt. I don't know. Next time I think I will start BD the day before a pos OPK and just keep on BD once a day all the way through til after O. I'm just soooo bummed. My chart had been looking soooo good. I haven't tested again today and I'm not going to again now. Just going to assume that AF will be here in a few days. :(Quote:

If implantation isn't till 8 or 9dpo, and hcg can't be detected till 2-3 days after implantation, then it wouldn't even be possible to get a BFP till 10-12dpo. You still have a chance. Personally, I try not to test before 11dpo and even then it's only with a FRER.
Thanks Essnce. I keep feeling pains as if AF is on its way, but I know you can get that any time before AF actually does arrive so not a reliable pregnancy symptom. Yes I def won't be doing any more tests for a few more days. Will even try hanging off for as long as possible. When I think about, back in 2011 when we were overseas in Sth America, I didn't test until the first day of my missed period (or the day after) and I only had a faint second line then. That was with DS2 (my 3rd child). If I don't get a BFP this time I will def do more than one attempt in the fertile window next cycle and see what happens.
I forgot to mention that this morning when I first took my BBT it was only 36.55. I thought it was too low and that maybe I hadn't inserted thermometer in far enough to get an accurate temp so I redid it straight away and the second reading was 36.82 and so I recorded that one. Did I do the right thing or should I have recorded the 36.55? If I put in 36.55 it's nearly touching the red line on my chart.
I would use the 36.82 temp. It wouldnt make sense for you to have such a huge drop at this point in your cycle....unless it was an implantation dip? Kinda late for that i think...those usually show at 6-8 dpo on a chart.
I had stark white BFN at 9-10 dpo and i thought i was out and had wine...next am I had a squinter bfp!
One day's temps can be misleading. We are registering tenths and hundredths of degrees here and it is absolutely possible to have one day be off for a variety of reasons. That's hwy we don't put any importance into one day's temps and instead look at the overall pattern to tell us if we ovulated and roughly when and if we may possibly be pregnant.
Do not read anything into one temp. You should put down the FIRST one you took because just the activity of worrying about if the temp is right or if you inserted therm. far enough can make your temp go up a smidge, and smidges on temps change evrything when charting.
9 DPO is TOO EARLY to test. I strongly urge against anyone testing that early.
This is today's chart. BBT went back up this morning.
