Hi all, I didn't get much ewcm this mth,a first for me too!! Was bizarre!
I'm 9dpo and got a bfn, also my temp lower this morning, so still not very hopefully. Although, Fx still as no-ones out till the witch shows her face! xx
Doula, I agree heard of lots of bfp this past 2 wks, so lots of May babies!!!
Grrr...I'm so frustrated with temping! I've been avoiding doing it since my nights are so variable with waking kids it's hard to get consistent temps. I decided to try this month to see if I was wrong about my O signs and that's why I keep getting BFNs. I was doing ok - I was showing a distinct rise after my suspected O date and today would have been my third day of high temps so FF would have given me my crosshairs. Then...this morning at 5am ds3 woke up crying. I quickly popped the thermometer in before getting up and got a temp as low as my lowest pre-O temp! We're talking a nearly 2 degree drop from yesterday's temp. What's going on? I usually take my temp around 7, so it was 2 hours early, and it was entirely possible that I was sleeping with my mouth open, but is that enough to account for that temp dip? ALL other signs point to me ovulating on Tuesday - cervix is firm and tightly closed, cm is creamy. I just want to get those crosshairs so I know how many dpo I am!!!
mocha if you are good at determining your cervix position ecc. and it is firm and closed then the low temp is probably because it was 2 hours earlier. could you take an opk just to be sure? i have really stabile pre-o temps now, the exact same every day, one day Ds2 woke me up 1 hour earlier and my temp was a lot lower then the other days too.
I love it too when the crosshairs show up!
I've been taking OPKs every day since my + and have gotten clear negatives. I haven't taken one today, but I will a little later. I just hate that the wonky temp is throwing doubt on something I would feel very confident about if I wasn't temping.
Mocha-use the temp adjustor on FF if you can.
I think I'll just assume it's a wonky temp and wait until tomorrow. If I get another low temp then, I'll start to worry. I think if I have to go another cycle, I may take my temp vaginally. I wear a mouth guard to bed to stop me from grinding my teeth, and as a result often sleep with my mouth open (gee, don't I paint an attractive picture of myself?:sigh:), so I'm constantly doubting the accuracy of my temps. I also have a non-BBT-specific thermometer that is a quick-read type (sometimes in as little as 10 seconds), so I doubt it's the most accurate option.
OH SNAP! That is a very common pregnancy symptom, I always get it too!Quote:

If your opks are negative, I would say you o'ed already for sure. Sometimes temps dip down post-O anyway, so don't worry about it!
Ok warning TMI!! :bigsmile:
Ok so I was wondering if anyone else has experianced this before...it is not new for me but just wondering if anyone else has had this when O'ing.
For about 4-5 days I have had cm that is stretchy like eggs whites...then for a day or so nothing....then this morning it is back again.....also my lower back aches around O time and I get an achy pressure like feeling in my rear area. Anyone else ever have that during O? I get it sometimes around O and right before AF sometimes...but AF is not anywhere close to arriving yet. Sorry for the TMI but I am just wondering if anyone else gets that or if I am just weird! :rofl:
Well I haven't seen anymore yellow cm today. It's just the white color. Not as much either so it may be turning to sticky. So I guess that's not good for a BFP!! :(Quote:
