The big bad charters gang! Lol - Page 178

I decided to use one of my old brand opks and one of the new with the same urine this morning and this is my result. The new one shoes a positive and the old one doesn't. So I'm starting to think that the new ones must be more sensitive and I'm actually still not having an LH surge, just I have enough LH normally on a morning in my concentrated urine to show a positive. So my plan is to see what my temp chart does over the next 3 days, if the LH surge is actually real then my temp will go up. If it doesn't I'm going to book a docs appt to bring on AF, I'm on CD58 now so I think that's long enough to wait to go and speak to someone.

Urgh, never thought getting my cycle back would be this annoying.

Eurgh, still nothing. I have a bit of a cold though and am wondering if it's related to that, or if I have been open-mouth breathing or something as I noticed I was breathing through my mouth a bit when falling asleep last night

Good morning everyone. I've pretty much given up on temping right now, or OPK'ing because, I guess since my cycles are anovulatory anyway. I might temp here and there to see if anything has changed. I just finished bleeding on CD7

so I might temp tomorrow morning if I remember.

In the meantime I'll probably just lurk on this thread. Well, I say that now, lol. Who knows.

What is going on with everyone ATM! My temps have been al awa the place

I'm pretty sure I didn't ovulate the other day now. I was hoping I did coz that would have meant that my cycle would have been nearer a "normal" length. Oh well

Cheska, how strange there's such a difference in results. It sounds like u have a good plan tho

I'm currently sitting on hold to the tax office...17 mins and counting......YAWN!!!

I started to temp vaginally a few month ago to avoid any problems with mouth breathing. Maybe try it after this cycle?

It's normal to get erratic results due to this.

I would have just thought that it would be positive all the way through the day if it was positive on the morning and the morning after. Am going to do another one around 11am today so will see what happens with that one!

Often you just get a surge, so won't see the positive throughout the entire day - hence why it's easy to miss it!

We used withdraw during my fertile period (I know not the best form of birth control) and my temps have been elevated for 18 days now. I didn't have any O pain though when the thermal shift happened, although I did get constipated (happens every month). Then between 7-10 dpo I had what felt like O pain, but (TMI) really thick snotty CM, not fertile CM.

Do you think my ovulation day is correct and I actually am 18 dpo? Or do you think I ovulated later?

I don't feel pregnant, and I took an hpt yesterday with FMU and it was negative, so I don't think I'm pregnant. But then what's going on?!

Urghh charting is awesome, but sometimes it makes me obsess a little too much!

(ignore the chart overlay... I don't know how to get rid of that or even why it's there)

Looking at your chart, it does appear that you ovulated when it says you did. Have you been off BC for long? I would keep watching those temps, and test again if they don't go down. Generally 18 dpo is a good indication of pregnancy, if your temps are still high.

I haven't been on birth control in 3 years, and even then it was only for brief periods of time (it never really agreed with me). Usually my lp is around 13 days, give or take a few, so this is definitely unusual.

I just have a feeling I'm not pregnant though. I am more worried about what would cause 18 days of an elevated temp if it's not pregnancy.

Have you tested again? I would - try to use a FRER.

Have you been sick, or had an infection that you know about?

No, not tested yet. I'm going to wait until 21 dpo on wednesday and use a superdrug test i already have with fmu. Regardless of results I'm figuring I'll just call the doctor.

I wasn't sick at all, but I did fly from europe to the us on the 18th, and then from the us to the uk on the 7th (red-eye flight) which is why I'm missing temps on the 18th and the 8th. I figured that would mess with my temperatures for a few days maybe, but not enough to mess up the overall cycle.

I fly across the atlantic a lot and it's never done this to my cycle before so I don't really think it could have such a massive impact

So, 13-day LP in the end, very pleased!

CD1 today, and the most hideous AF I've had for a while

So painful and heavy, having (sorry TMI) clots and big bits of tissue. I even tested earlier today just to make sure I hadn't fallen pg and had a very early mc

BFN, thank goodness, but I hope it calms down overnight. I am going to bed with a hot water bottle and some codeine now. Back on the feroglobin from today as well, I imagine my iron stores will be taking a bit of a hit with this amount of bleeding.
