Christmas bfps

[dreamer1316]

Welcome Chloe

My temps are still in the higher range this morning but FF will not put in crosshairs for cd19. I think it's because of the dip on cd 22. Even if I discard cd22 it still won't!

 

[mrs unicorn]

Hi Chloe, hope you get your Xmas bfp!

Emma's your temps are high though which is great, so I wouldn't worry about FF, frustrating as it is. When is af due? I'm due mon/tues, or Friday if FF is right but I think it's wrong. I spot the day before so I'll know soon enough, and my temps are going down.

 

[dreamer1316]

Thanks Mrs unicorn FF is very frustrating! Af due Saturday for me so got another week of obsessing to get through! Stay positive about your temps your still in!
What mode do you use FF in? Advanced of FAM? I've just switched it to FAM and it gives me ov on cd 17!!

 

[mrs unicorn]

Ooh what's FAM? Mines on advanced. I'm ok, I've accepted af is coming this cycle. If there was a cycle for it not to happen I'd rather it be this one so I don't have to try and hide it from family over Christmas. Next cycle no temps or opks for me, just bding every other day around o time for a week or so. None of my temps would be accurate with getting up at different times, drinking, staying at others houses so I'm not bothering. And getting the timing right with opks when you're busy is such a pain!

 

[mrs unicorn]

I just tried FAM and it moved o to cd18! No! Still think it was cd13/14 but I guess I'll know when af arrives as I have a 14/15 day l phase

 

[dreamer1316]

I think it's called fertility awareness mode it takes everything into account, cm, opks and temps not just temps alone.
I like your thinking on the "au natural" method next cycle. All this is too stressful isn't it!

 

[mrs unicorn]

Yeah I'm so looking forward to the next cycle. We'll both be off work for a couple of weeks so we'll be much more relaxed (and have more time for bd) But busy doing nice things with family etc, I need to be kept busy!

 

[dreamer1316]

I bet that will be your bfp cycle X Gd luck x

Welcome Chole1026...tell us a little about yourself

Well ladies, I'm back from my hernia surgery. Everything went well, although it gives me a whole new view of what I can eat during the holidays since I can't really exercise at all right now. I don't know why having a slice in the middle of my abdomen would be a walk in the park to recover from but it sure sucks!!

Good news? We got a lot of BDing in before surgery (and my DH didn't even know I was fertile...just a happy coincidence this time!) and I ovulated the day before surgery so it ended up being perfect timing! Poor DH though, can't BD for the fun of it for another week at least!

Finger's crossed for a BFP. I will start testing 13 dpo since that's when I got my last bfp. Mrs. Unicorn, did FF end up being right? What CD did you O?

 

[abennion]

Tweety your chart is looking great! Yours too Emma!

6DPO for me. My temps are all over the place post-o, already discarded one because it dropped way down to my coverline (DH woke me up early because he couldn't sleep so I ended up temping early too). I might try switching my chart to FAM and see what it says, although I don't think it will change all that much. How is everyone else doing?

 

[Ltweety]

Thanks abennion...not that I actually had anything to do with it, lol. That one really high one was three days after surgery and a couple hours later than I normally temp. Probably should discard it but I don't want to until I have more data on my chart. I'm really excited today because I've had two days of tons of creamy CM which I had in September when I had a bfp. Obviously since I'm only 7dpo I can't read too much into it but fingers crossed!
Re: You are only 6dpo so you are getting into implantation days now...don't worry too much about your individual temps. Just jot them down as impartial data and they will reveal what they have to reveal after it's all said and done! I know it's harder to do than it is to say but it has taken a lot of the stress out of temping for me.

Mrs Unicorn, enjoy your holidays and your break from our militant TTCing, lol.

Emma, your chart is looking much better now that we can see the pattern. Just a slow rise this month...It will be interesting to see how long your Luteal phase is. Didn't you say this is your first month temping?

 

[wishfulbaby]

Just tested and got my BFP round 1 ttc!! cant believe it!

 

[ButternutBabe]

I'm out �� AF came early. Good luck to the rest of you, and congratulations again to all the BFPs.

 

[abennion]

Congrats wishful! Sorry, Butternut, hopefully next cycle will be it for you. We'll see in a week if I'll be joining you or not!

 

[mommy_atHEART]

Me me!
I'm testing christmas day!
I have a 26 day cycle (for the last 3 months) I'm on cd20 - LMP 11/28/15 - Next AF should be 12/23/15 - OD was somewhere between cd14-cd18

 

[dreamer1316]

Glad your surgery went well tweety and u times your bd well! Thanks - yes my chart was a slow rise like you said, and t is my first time temping so just happy I did ov! 11 dpo today - my longest lp so far and AF due Saturday x bfn today x

Did u switch your chart abbenion? I did and it made a big difference and suddenly it all made sense! FAM is better I think.

Sorry Butternut

Congratulations Wishful!

 

[abennion]

Emma - I did switch it to FAM - no change. I think my post -o temps are just going to be wonky this cycle. Usually they're not this all over the place. 11 DPO is still early! FF did a study and found most women who got their BFPs didn't get them until 13DPO

AFM - 7DPO and still wonky. At least temps are up again. The wait for Wednesday is too long. I bought some ICs that I may use when they get here.... should be here Monday at the latest

 

[dreamer1316]

Looks like FF has is right at cd17 anyway for u. Despite being a little up and down your temps r still up overall so that's great.

Thanks for the info about testing at 13dpo - hope I make it that far in order to test!

Emma, I second that 13dpo. My last bfp was negative 12dpo and positive 13dpo.

I'm not sure what's going on with me. I have loads of creamy cm...which I don't usually have this much of any cm, but my temps are on the lower side of post O and I don't really have swollen bbs or tenderness or anything, which I usually do about this far into my cycle...hmm. I guess I'll just have to wait and see. I did have some really weird cramping and pulling on my V and low right side yesterday which was weird...and terrifying since that was the side of my ectopic. I had a vision of it implanting in my tube again

 

[dreamer1316]

Thanks that gives me some hope to cling to!
Sending positive vibes to u x
