Don't even worry about your chart, my chart looked shitty to me and don't forget when Flava got her BFP FF didn't even give her an O date

Thats why I gave up charting Pop was too stressful!
POP dont worry about the chart, you know your body, FF is just a computer program, like Dloui said other peoples charts have not been perfect and ended up in BFPs. My chart is not normal/textbook either. Hang in there hun.
POP- forget FF it told me the first time ever I did not O and yeah Im pregnant haha. You need lots of sperm up there to get a bfp not a stupid program!
Me too! I just keep a chart so I know when my days to dtd are. I don't temp, and lots of women have wonkety pg charts where temps go up and down....it's just not a good indicator unless, of course, you are at like 20dpo and they are still relatively up and you are not bleeding.
POP i see you had a temp rise, do you think you Od on cd21?
Nope not sleeping but I wish haha!
Sorry I have been flat out at work. I'm not sure Cinss...I am confident that I did O on the weekend without a doubt but it was totally over by monday. Either 20 or 21....still unsure exactly when though...because I know you can get the pains but not O yet. So although I had cramps saturday arvo and evening...I may have O'ed sunday some time.
I am just not feeling it this month and don't have my usual desire to start testing lol. Gotta say though I have been bloody starving!! Waking in the middle of the night thinking about food!! And my nipples are SORE when I take off my bra or bump them when I shower...started yesterday. Way too early for symptoms though I would think.
I think I am gonna stop temping now until AF is over because it is disrupting my sleep...I wake a million times a night cause I am excited to see what my temp is!! LOL
I have a bit of a dilema... It is my BFFs birthday on the 24th, she is turning 30, we are going out for dinner then out dancing afterwards, it should be a really fun night..... but...... i am in the 2ww :( I would really like to have a few drinks with my buddy, i am going to test at 10dpo, and 11dpo (thats her b'day) to make sure if i am pregnant this time i wont drink, but i am most likely to get negatives anyway if i am or not.... i just don't know what to do, she only turns 30 once, but i wouldn't drink more than 1 drink if i knew i was preggers....urgh :(
POP you can have pains before, during or after O, at least you know within a few days, are you going to temp the next 2 days though, just to get FF to give you the crosshairs or are you going to stop now?
Won't FF just say I Oed yesterday which I know I didn't. Because today was first day above coverline?
PoP, I think you O'ed CD21 as well. If you look back at last month your coverline temp was 35.9 so if you go by that then you have three temps above that. I know each month is different though. The temps you took when camping, could you exclude them from the data? That way FF might change the coverline and make it a bit lower, hence more accurate?
Cinss, it's always hard with drinking and the 2ww. I have had a few drinks in the 2ww before (a few times actually) but I was never pregnant at the time. I think I would give it a miss though, but that's me.
Perfect! You can actually leave the temps on there and just tick the 'discard' button next to the temp and FF won't use that temp.
I think I am just going to temp in the week leading to O and till I get my crosshairs from no on! It disrupts sleep so much because I have to wake up earlier than I need to or I risk waking early some days on my own and stuffing it up anyway. But some days I can't go back to sleep so end up awake an hour too soon....or like after O when your excited to see temps I wake up an hour before that and end up awake 2hrs too early!!
I know what you mean. It gets very frustrating. I just temp as soon as I wake up though, whether that be 5.30am or 7.30am. I haven't really noticed any difference between temps. This month my temps are all over the place though, apparently that's normal after a m/c though. AF should be here within a week as I'm taking primolut now.
A couple of drinks are fine :)
So excited that you are getting closer to TTC Bec!!
cinss- I would drink in the 2ww no problem at all. First of all you not pregnant yet second I would drink some red wine which is actually good for you you can even have some pregnant! Go have fun!
Cinss, I get nervous about drinking in the 2ww too, but I don't think a glass or two of red wine is bad like Flava said. That being said, I would take a FRER that morning and see what it says.....at 11dpo, you will likely have an accurate reading, although many women don't get positives till later, but hey. I remember when I had my second pg/loss last year, I had to go to a function that night and was 10dpo. I was like, well, I'll just take a test to make sure I'm not pg so I can have some wine without feeling guilty, and lo and behold, I got an unexpected bfp. Hopefully that will happen for you this month!!!
POP, I will do the same thing- wake up early because I know I am temping! That is the main reason why I quit temping. I think it's a solid plan to just temp until you ovulate as long as it's not stressing you out. Do your boobs always get sore? See, mine do just from progesterone in my system, so I can never trust that, but if yours never do, that might be a good sign!
Bec, what med is that? I'm excited for you to try again, hopefully you will be lucky like so many of these ladies who have gotten nice sticky bfps after losses!
Cniss, I agree I'd take a test to make sure, but I think 1-2 drinks (maybe even 3 will be fine). Before I knew I was pregnant with DS1, my husband and I took a stay-cation. (He's such a house troll!) and we wasted our week by watching tons of TV, movies together and then playing video games together, going out to eat, and well, drinking. I didn't even remember us having sex that month so pregnancy was the LAST thing on my mind, but lo and behold, I was pregnant and he is perfectly fine. I think it was just I was so "newly" pregnant that it didn't seem to have an effect.
but definitely do whatever your heart tells you, and for sure I think 1 drink would be OK, esp. of course if you get a BFN. You did drop the BSF this month? you used preseed?
Your chart looks great now POP, i didn't add my temps in on the previous Sat, Sun, Mon as you can see because DP was home then and we slept in for an hour on all of those days, and with him spooning me it was really so hot i knew my temps would be way too high to record. I guess i am lucky that he gets up so early for work that is when i put my thermomoter in and it is the same time everyday before DD wakes up.
Thankyou everyone for the advice on drinking in the 2ww, i think i will actually have 1 or 2 red wines over the course of the night, i just wont get drunk, i am getting too old for that these days anyway and i am sure my friend will need looking after too, so that is probably the best idea.
Auroara i never did the BSF, i did drink Ural for my first couple of cycles, but droped it fror the last 2, and yes this time we used lots of preeseed. I am having 0 symptoms so far, i know it is early, i just wish i had something going on though.
Lola, primolut is a synthetic form of progesterone. So I take it for 5 days and then a few days later I should bleed, which will start my cycle off. I have had to take it a few times when TTC because my cycles used to be all over the place. I had some left from a few months ago so decided to just take it. HPTs are negative too now, yahoooo.
I have everything crossed for you ladies this month, Pop, Cinss, Bec, Lola and anyone else ~ baby dust~
Hi ladies, I haven't been here in a long time .. How's everyone? hope you are all doing well :HH:
Good luck Lola, Bec, Cinss, POP and everyone else :) Sending you lots of baby dust :)
OOOhhhhhh Cinss is that a day 5 implantation dip hehehehehehehehe I think you might be knocked up!!!
PoP-now that you have stopped temping how am I suppose to stalk your chart:) You're knocked up anyways so it doesn't matter
Cinss-your chart looks awesome, FX this is your month
Bec-Im glad your getting the ball rolling, FX that it doesn't take long to get a BFP :)
Pop your chart looks good!! ;)
Both charts look promising. There will be only a few of us left in here in a few weeks!
Hope the appointment goes well today, Lola. Looking forward to hearing some good news :)
PoP, obsessed with temping? Who knew?!
Yeah me too Cinss!! Because a fair few people who are reputable psychics all said April I guess the previous BFN's were all ok because I was going to fall pregnant in April, if that makes sense?? If I get a BFN is April I kinda feel like giving up...but also not...I just don't know!
I have a few things happening that is totally different this cycle....but it seems you only get a BFP when you are sure you are not pregnant!! So makes me think I'm out!!
Hey ladies! I am optimistic for you gals, POP and Cinss! DH's appt went well, he said he could not detect a varicocele, and said the fact that he has impregnated me before means that his junk is working, that is may be from the dancebelt or maybe just a "stress pattern" or whatever that means. He's got an ultrasound and another SA scheduled for next week. The doc said that we shouldn't think it won't happen and we have to do IVF, which is good news. I am happy with it all. I am curious to see what the tests next week show.
that is awesome news Lola!
Great news lola! I also said before maybe it's the belt? But now he got 6 months off the belt right so maybe it will happen before he have to use it again.
