when i thought about this i realised that dtd at positive OPK has never worked out for us, weirdly with the 3 sways ive done ive only got pregnant off dtd the day before +opk which i assume is O-2, so its not too far out!!Quote:

So I think I may have finally ovulated!!!!!
Just not sure when. This is the progesterone test and it is positive when there is basically one visible line and when the test line is darker it means progesterone is 5 or below.
When taken in the past the test line was always dark!!!
Finally at least it seems to show I at least ovulated!

everything crossed for you!!
Nice! So glad you got those! :)
Nice temps but negative test :tissue:

If you can see my chart ok, Do you have any thoughts on O day? The first temp rise was same day as peak smiley then a couple days of low temps and the second temp rise was followed by.consistent temps.
I suspect it's the day of the dip AFTER the crosshairs. Not convinced the crosshairs are right, I think that one high temp confused it.
I'm operating on the assumption that the most recent dip is SES and count back 7 days to that dip. That's most likley.
Ok so instead of 10dpo I am most likely 8dpo?
That makes.more sense to me to. And you are referring to the dip the day after the first temp rise?
Attachment 41450
Yes that's right. That's my suspicion anyway.
Ok thanks. It makes more sense! Here's hoping for good news!
Ok just wondering if implantation cramping is such a thing? I know you have said many times that you can't feel implantation and I'm probably grasping at straws here but yesterday I had mild cramps like all day. I kept thinking AF was totally starting but haven't had bleeding yet. My temp is still up. Then I'm thinking UTI is back so I'll get some strips today. I just can't figure out what's up. I don't remember having cramps like that before any pregnancy. I'm still not 100% Sure when I ovulated so dint want to test again. Sigh.......
Here is my chart.

Djmommy I do not want to get your hopes up but wowsers your chart looks amazing [emoji7] I have been fooled by awesome looking charts in the past though.... but only on the odd occasion. Just wanted to add that my final pregnancy (which I wasn't expecting) I experienced the Exact same af cramps I always do only they were 2-3 days earlier than usual. Was 100% expecting af and believed I was having a shorter cycle (not uncommon for me) I hope so very much this means your bfp [emoji1696][emoji1696][emoji1696]Again, don't want to give false hope but I'm feeling very optimistic for you [emoji847] when are you testing??!!
2 love of my life boys followed years later by my miracle daughter [emoji173][emoji173][emoji173] so blessed [emoji847]
Thanks so much PBN!! I'm just so baffled and so nervous because this cycle has been so long that I just feel like I can't endure the process anymore and I just don't have the time to either at 43 (yikes) and every month I convince myself Im pregnant and I always disappoint myself for thinking I am. I tested about 2 or 3 days ago and it was negative so I will definitely wait a bit to see if AF shows before I even buy any. My temps are usually never this elevated but maybe just good progesterone this time.Quote:

You can't feel implantation but you DO absolutely have uterine cramps in very early pregnancy. When I say "you can't feel implantation" I mean that you cannot tell where in your uterus a baby has implanted or IF it has implanted. But what does happen is, once you're pregnant, a huge chemical cascade occurs that causes massive blood flow to your uterus and lots of hormonal changes that can cause cramping, sometimes very severe cramping. I had massive cramping with my 4th pregnancy.
Thank you for explaining that. It wasn't painful per se but definitely noticeable. None really today? Strange...Quote:

My temp is still up but I took a progesterone strip and I can see a line so maybe it is starting to decrease:(.
Boo.
I just can't do a HPT.

No matter what, you've almost certainly ovulated so it's still good.
Yes absolutely!!!!Quote:

Do you think there is any benefit to take the myo instiol?
Just out of curiosity, can AF cramps happen 3 or 4 days before? I just wonder what they were from. It was literally the whole day! This cycle was so just so different. My temps.were so nice too.
Yes, let's give it a try.
Yes you can have uterine cramping at any time of month. Many people will notice cramps a few days before AF starts (I sure have).
Let's hope this was a reset cycle and things are going back to normal now.
Ok if I can remember correctly you told me to start off at a thousand mg? Correct?
Yes 1000 mg thru the follicular phase, then 500 or go to every other day on teh 1000 in the luteal phase.
I keep reading the recommended dosage is 4000mg. I'm taking only 1000mg. U think it will have any benefit? Should I take at least 2000mg?
Yes, it will still have benefit. The higher doses are for people with severe PCOS (and to be honest I don't trust it at that level even for them). I never have anyone use more than 2000 and I prefer anyone without severe PCOS to do 1000.
Ok I will stick with 1000mg
What would cause a flashing smiley on CD 4?
please don't let me have a super short cycle. Remember I have had O on day 7 or 8 before!!!!
Just a natural variation.
Yes I hope and pray this isn't a short cycle! Be having attempts just in case (although anything before CD 8 will be unlikely to end in pregnancy)
It's only flashing thankfully . So hopefully it won't be solid for a few days at least!!
Maybe I should wait a few days to let the holder clear itself to test again because it'll probably keep giving me flashing smileys.
I actually tested this morning with a new holder to restart it and it was open circle. So hopefully this will be a good normal cycle :fx::fx::fx:
Oh good I'm glad! FXFXFX for a normal, predictable cycle!
CD 11 today , open circle.
Had a little pink spotting..tmi pic
Normal?
Sorry to be such a pain but if this cycle ends up like the last Im really done. Hoping the Myo instiol would help.

Fixing things take time. I wish it didn't work like that but it seems to. And things fix themselves over time, too! So go ahead and as per my suggestion cut back to 500 or 1000 every other day and see what happens.
I'll do that. And thanks for always putting up with my craziness!! XOXO
