July 2WW

[twointow83]

Almost freaked out this morning! Woke up and took temp at same time and it jumped up! Then I realized how hot I was covered up with the dog laying on me. Kicked blankets off and let the fan blow/cool me off for 15 mins, took temp again and it was already .1 lower. So I marked today questionable and I hope tomorrow it's back down (at least until I can get more attempts in!)

I had the opposite happen. My temp plummeted today by .2 degrees from Sunday's temp, I disturbed yesterday's temp but it was down .5 from yesterday! When I first took it I was like "No way!!". So, I decided to confirm it. Went back to sleep for another hour and that one was even lower (used the first one on chart, the second was just to make sure it was actually low today). Not sure what to make of it. Normally when my temp takes a dive like that it is because I wake up REALLY early and take my temp because it is less than 3 hours before my normal temp time (and you are supposed to take it after a minimum of 3 consecutive hours of sleep) or I am surging and about to O. I haven't tested yet but it has me wondering if it is a drop before the rise... It is not uncommon for me to get a temp drop a day or two before ovulation. Plus, I posted on the main forum about this, after DH and I DTD (protected, not want to ruin our one attempt), there was a bit of EW in there. Practically nothing compared to my norm but it was definitely there! I'll post... or maybe just update this post after I test Just waiting to need to use the restroom.

ETA: OPK still -

I agree I think the clomid may be something to do with it, I'm not sure how reliable opks or monitors would be with clomid - are most of the July TTC mommas taking clomid? Seems a lot are

Um 5 of us are for sure- me, mamamia, TaytumJ, hitmebabyonemoretime, magical22. Not sure if there are others. My memory isn't the greatest, lol.

This is what I am dealing with OPK-wise. The lines never went away completely, so I have no idea where I am in realation to if I am nearing O or not. The last one is very close to + but CD 10 AM's test is nearly identical Anyone else seeing the same problems with their OPKs? Note: Above the red line are tests taken before CD 10.. when technically I shouldn't have been testing but what can I say I'm a lol. I don't remember having this issue the last time I took clomid... I know you are having issues Momamia, but is anyone else?

I forgot to OPK this morning, but will tonight. I hate that the Clomid seems to be messing with OPKs. I also really hate when temps don't line up as it feels like I wasted a whole morning without a solid temp! Ugh! I do feel confident though after 15 minutes my temp went down so fingers crossed it was a fluke today!

Let us know Taytum. I'm rooting for you to get the couple more days you want!

[emoji35] I took another, since it was so close. I figured if it was a legit surge it should have gotten darker. It didn't. In fact the line practically vanished (identical to CD9 PM). *sigh*

A few hours ago, I started to get tingling in my bbs which I only get either the day of or after I have o'd. Do you think I could have o'd and never got a true +opk? I was having a lot of cramping the last 4 days and yesterday and today I've been bloated. I'm wondering if I o'd today? Should I keep testing to see if I do get a true positive? Why does everything go to hell right when we need it to be predictable the most? Ugh....

I don't think you are charting momamia? There is of course a chance you may have ovulated without picking up a +opk but without charting to confirm we won't know. I would continue to test with opks and DTD ever 4 days (or whatever pattern you have chosen) to be sure just in case.

[momamia4]

No, I'm not charting. I'm definitely going to next month though. This is nuts!! I got another high today but it didn't look as dark as yesterday's. I'm just going to keep testing and bding for a while and see what happens. Thanks True!

Momamia: that's what I would do as well. I think XX last time missed her surge as well, but still got a BFP! Hopefully you get some clear answers soon!

Big time temp drop for me this morning! Had an almost +OPK last night, so hoping O is just around the corner for me! We're leaving for vacation today so I'm going to pack OPKs and my thermometer but if I don't get to test then no biggie, just sticking to EOD until Monday!

Edit: clearly negative OPK this morning with FMU. Ugh, OPKS. ���� but maybe this is a true negative and now I can watch it go positive without worrying Clomid is messing it up.

[momamia4]

FX for a +opk!!! Have fun on your vacation!

The part that bugs me the most is not knowing if I'm actually in the 2ww or not. I am pretty sure that I o'd yesterday though. I am not as bloated or crampy today but maybe as the day goes on that will change.
