Cheers to BFPs in 2-0-1-6!

Abe, sounds like you have everything thought out there. Good luck on the weight loss (I'm trying to lose about the same as you at the moment), I know how hard it can be.

Good luck and I hope you still check in from time to time

 

[dancingnurse2]

Great plan Abe. You have to do what is best for you!

 

[Angel5000]

Good luck Abe. I'm sorry you're taking a break but it sounds like you've thought it all out and getting healthier can't be a bad thing, and I would think it would be more helpful in TTC. Peek in every now and then though and let us know how you're doing!

angel i would go for the 4d for $130 for 15min. it gives you enough time to see baby gender esp if she is playing hide and seek. you get time to see baby so nicley and see all features at your own time.

Abe im sorry you taking a break but maybe its good for you emotionally and i have found its great to take a step back and collect yourself before going at it again. possible start your own thread if you not going to stay here so we can still keep in touch. im ntnp and i still have so much that goes on in my life that i refer to my thread more as a blog. i am sending you love and i hope that losing weight may help you too in getting a bfp. less stress does help.

sheece i never know what to say to you when i look at that chart. i have read alot of ff helping to chart and yours just boggles me. i wish i could say you had your O and now its just waiting but a HPT would have been + by now. i wish that silly AF would just come already and you can go in for the scan

 

[Sheece]

Funny you should say that Whimsy - I got my crosshairs this morning! For a week ago!

I've had a weird slow rise in temps it seems, they still aren't very high but I'm pretty sure I did ovulate when it reckons I did. I had period like cramps all day & my skin broke out and I had horrible moods all day.

I never usually get any of that, so I'm thinking the Vitex has done its job!

 

[broodymrs]

I hope the vitex is working Sheece. Must be so frustrating how wacky your cycles have gone 😟

 

[Sheece]

Thanks Broody, me too! I'm a bit cautious about it being ovulation because my pre - o temps are higher than post o hmm.

At any rate, I booked in for my ultrasound on the 25th so hopefully I'll be able to go in and get it sorted then.

 

[Angel5000]

Sheece - I really hope that things get clearer! Your temps are a little crazy. The Vitex might help (I hope so), the Vitex can take some time to work but it worked well for me.

 

[Sheece]

Well FF took the crosshairs away - I knew the temps were too low

The last three days I've had lots of ewcm though, way more than I've gotten before, so fingers crossed this is ovulation. Who knows!!

I booked my ultrasound in for the 25th of oct, and that was the earliest she could get me in, so if this doesn't all time out well, I might have to wait another cycle for it :/

 

[dancingnurse2]

Hope the vortex works for you. It caused break through bleeding the two cycles I took it.

 

[Sheece]

Yeah Ive had a bit of that too. Not much though, one or two bits of spotting for 2 days, but i had 8 days of light brown / tan tinted cm on top of that. Figured it was just my body adjusting to it :/

 

[Whimsical88]

sheece...... i just dont know what to say. maybe you dont Ovulate. because there has been no temp rise and its going on alot now so you should have had a temp spike to get to AF. maybe you dont have enough progesterone too.

fx that you get some answers on the 25th. if you do get i AF, i hope she can squeeze you in earlier

 

[Sheece]

Whimsy - I definitely didn't ovulate last cycle. This cycle is just wierd. I had a slight temp rise on CD28 but I wouldnt think it was enough to say its ovulation. However FF has now twice given me crosshairs on that date!

First a few days ago, then it took them away, then my temp went up a bit this morning and it gave me them back!

Who bloody knows. Im pretty sure I didn't ovulate though but at the same time, I did have some ovulation like symptoms there.

Whatever it is, my cycle needs to sort itself out by the 25th as thats my ultrasound and I need to have had AF by then!

 

[Whimsical88]

when i look at your chart i say CD28 also but the temps after have not been significantly higher than after you had your last period so may or may not be O.

i recently have joined FF, mostly to learn about my body and because i always am seeing charts here and people throwing so many blessing at the app so now i have it and i did sign up for the lessons thats why i can comment bravely on charts now.

come on Sheeces period. get her already!!!!!

 

[Sheece]

haha Whimsy, love it

Twist - ive had 5 days of EWCM, more than ever before and the last two days my temp has shot up. hmmmm. Now im thinking I could have maybe ovulated either 2 days ago or 4 days ago.

Whimsy what do your chart skills tell you looking at mine now?

 

[broodymrs]

If temps keep going up I'd say you've ovulated recently. Day 40 would be my bet

 

[Sheece]

Broody - Im thinking the same. Temp still high this morning so I'm thinking CD 40 for sure. Better late than never

 

[Whimsical88]

i honestly think AF is due soon for you but i do get what you are saying and that would be my second opinion that you did O on the 40 because you are having much higher and better temps post O.

but to be so very honest, no one ever knows and can predict your cycle Sheece, its all just guessing. and you got some bding in both around 28th and 40th so thats great in getting a bfp. i wish that you just get it as a surprise this cycle.

 

[Angel5000]

Your chart is such a crazy all over the place kind of thing this month, Sheece! I can't even begin to pinpoint where O might have been. Hopefully you'll find out soon. But you got in lots of BD so I think you're bases are covered regardless of where you O'd.

 

[Sheece]

It is really crazy! but pretty sure I ovulated CD40 , 6dpo today and temps are still high, yay! Was convinced I wouldn't ovulate at all this cycle (like last) so im happy.

Hopefully the vitex shortens my cycle even more next time! I will have to reschedule my ultrasound though, I won't be far enough into next cycle for their liking.
