Club OvaCue!

[AreIn83]

The only thing I can figure out is that I have creamy mucus almost my entire cycle, somewhat dry for a day or 2 after O then right back to creamy. I don't know if that would throw it off?

 

[AreIn83]

never- I keep forgetting you have the newest version of the OvaCue though, I think Moo and I have the Classic.

 

[nevertogether]

arein - i have the classic too. it's titi that has the new one. same here i have creamy CM for almost my entire cycle except for right around O

 

[nevertogether]

titi - i don't think *** v reading has to spike after *** low..it just has to go up and stay up. kind of like *** opposite of *** o reading. how it has to go up but ***n stay a certain percentage down for two days.

 

[AreIn83]

What's with blanking out tee H eee?

 

[AreIn83]

Oh, ok, I get everyone confused. Maybe I should post that on the first page? What monitor everyone uses?

 

[nevertogether]

that would be cool!! not sure why it's blanking out T-H-E- LOL

 

[Lauren82]

gah! The ovacue is driving me bonkers. I have the newest version and it has incorrectly "verified" O with the pink square and the purple square. I am just wondering what I am looking for now in the numbers?
I thought someone said something about a V low?

 

[AreIn83]

Lauren-your lowest V day is the day of maximum fertility and you should O (I think) one to two days later but I just started using vag sensor yesterday so Titi or Never may have to verify this.

Whit, honey, I can't remember which monitor you have.

Everyone else report in and I'll put it on the first page.

 

[nevertogether]

arein - whit has the classic too.

lauren - do you have your readings on here? arein is right, after you identify your v low.. you should ovulate one to two days after. mine was super confusing too!

 

[AreIn83]

Thanks lovey.

 

[Lauren82]

Here are my readings. I normally have 33-35 day cycles and am almost positive the Ovacue told me I ovulated way too early so now I am trying to interpret the numbers instead of relying on the colored squares. I am starting to think I would have been better off with the older model! ^_^

cd 1: 80
cd 2: 120
cd 3: 163
cd 4: 188
cd 5: 108 336
cd 6: 101 264
cd 7: 147 264
cd 8: 190 207
cd 9: 223 219
cd 10: 144 255
cd 11: 147 174
cd 12: 113 278
cd 13: 116 154
cd 14: 104 282 (the cue said that was my highest OV confirmed pink square)
cd 15: 110 154
cd 16: 159 111
cd 17: 145 170 (got the purple square on this day)
cd 18: 143 262
cd 19: 129 224
cd 20: 108 152
cd 21: 160 82

lauren - your cue peak is CD11. reason being, the two readings after that are more than 10% less than CD11 making it your peak. you should ovulate 5-7 days after that, but on mine i ovulated 8 days after my cue peak. so not sure what i think about that. once you get your cue peak you need to look for a vaginal low to confirm O. CD21 looks like it is definitely your vaginal low compared to the rest, however you will need CD22/23 readings to confirm that. you should O either on the day of your vaginal low, or 1-2 days after. i would suggest today/day of vaginal low, tomorrow, and the next day to cover your bases.

if you O on CD21 it should set you up for a 14 day LP if you have a 35 day cycle this time around or a 12 day LP if you have a 33 day cycle. this is good.

if you O on CD22 it should set you up for a 13 day LP if you have a 35 day cycle this time around or a 11 day LP if you have a 33 day cycle. still okay, but kind of short.

i'm pretty confident it's going to be one of these two days. is this normal for you?

 

[Lauren82]

nevertogether,

It's hard to know for sure what is normal for me since I don't take temps.
The only thing I do know is that the last time I was pregnant and m/c, I conceived 10 days before AF was due (we only BD one time that cycle). Which leads me to believe I could possibly have a LP problem.
I am also using the CBEFM and it still is giving me a low reading.


Thank you for your help! I guess all I can do is wait it out and see.

 

[nevertogether]

i suggest temping next cycle, if this one isn't successful, because that alone can help you determine your LP hun, i would today, tomorrow, and the next though just to be sure. perhaps you will get an instant peak on one of those days like you said happens a lot with CBFM? 10 and above is considered a normal LP. 10 is considered short, but it's not considered an LP defect until you go below that.

 

[AreIn83]

Never and Lauren-what about CD16. It is higher than the 82 however, it's lower than the rest and corresponds to the right days for O according to the cue peak day that Never identified and the fact you got a purple for CD 17?

 

[AreIn83]

Plus the 111 shooting back up to 170 fits also for O.

 

[AreIn83]

Lynn told me to disregard my high fertility I got last night with my V reading. She said it was too late to start using it in my cycle. Boo.

 

[AreIn83]

I think I'm just going to keep using it anyway, just to see what happens.

 

[emilyjean]

Am I the only one that stopped taking my readings after O?

I have the classic by the way, I wish I had gotten the Cue 2, I'd be much less confused!
