Disco Derail! - TTCAL/PAL Discussion and Support!

5+6 is super early and even 2-3 days makes a HUGE difference at this point. I bet you'll have good news in a week!
 
yes, stay away from google Lucy. I think it is just too early and that when you go back, you will see more. :hugs:
 
Here's my thinking Lucy - if you know when you ovulated and BDed and LMP that's a good start but then honestly what happens once the sperm get in the uterus etc. who knows...maybe it took a day or two to actually conceive and then implantation from then can take another 6-12 days apparently so even though you might be 5+6 ideally...there may be some give or take on that number and more likely take. It's super early to see lots of stuff so don't worry too much right away. :hugs:
 
Lucy - I am sure everything will be fine and it was just too early to see anything xxx

Sorry i have not been about as much i have been reading but just not saying much. Feel a bit adrift at the min being in limbo land. Good news though Ela is pregnant and puppies are due in early feb :happydance: The scan was amazing and you could see the scans with the ickle puppy inside and the heart beating away. Was very much like my scan at 6 weeks!

Going to try my doppler on her over the week end to see if it will pick up puppy heart beats :thumbup:
 
Luce im sorry but i think its wrong that they booked your scan so early! I had to beg my doc to get seen at 7 weeks! So early on in a pregnancy so many things can alter what is seen on the scan. Again i went in when i thought i was 7w3d and i was a week behind at 6w3d. If i had gone in earlier i would have seen jack and been a wreck. Please dont stress about what is seen so early on. Give it at least a week. In the mean time feel free to express any lunacy, we will help you through it!
 
Thanks girls you have calmed me a bit which is a good thing.

Vicky I was expecting a scan for the beginning of Jan so was surprised when I had a message left for me saying it was going to be this week. Guess this is the problem with early scans I'm going to keep myself busy this week Steve and I went and bought our Christmas present today we got each other little things and agreed to buy a joint main present we've got ourselves a little tv with DVD player in it for the kitchen I can cook and watch a film or play a cd which will be nice.

I hope the week goes quickly. Thanks for letting me express my lunacy :wacko:
 
Lucy, I reiterate what the other girls have said, it is really early and I'm sure that you'll see far more next week.

Try and stay positive if you can poppet
:hugs:
 
Chart Question! :)

So FF is saying I ovulated CD16 which is a little late for me but not unheard of (it's only 2 days later than my average day 14). However I had one spot of blood on day 12 (I get that every once in awhile when I ovulate and specifically got it the only time I conceived - so I consider it a lucky spot!). Is there any possibility that FF is wrong and I ovulated earlier?, say, Day 13. I know my temps don't support it and since my M/C my CM has really dried up hence the fact we are using Conceive Plus to help me out so I don't track CM and honestly cannot for the life of my determine CP. Just wondering what you all think.

Merci :winkwink:
 
Grandbleu, yes FF can be wrong sometimes. I'm pretty sure I ov on xmas eve, but it hasn't picked that up as I've been a bit erratic taking my temps this month.

You can always play around and try and override it if you're not happy with it.

Good luck!
 
Lucy I'm glad you got today over with. It sounds like a great start to a sticky pregnancy in my opinion. I like what the others have said about dates being a little off and the fact that a couple of days make a huge difference this early on. If the doctor were concerned, she would have said so What day is your next scan?

It's super early in the morning here. I just wanted to check in with Lucy. I'll read and respond to everything else later.

Nato and Mel also have appointments today.
 
Good luck Nato and Mel! Wishing only good news for the both of you. Thanks for the reminder Amanda :winkwink:

PS. It's hard to keep up as the thread flies...is there a central place where all appts/scans/etc. are written down...:shrug: just wondering.

PPS.
Thanks Sugar - I always feel a bit naughty trying to override the FF fertility gods. Also I sort of know in the back of my head that they are probably 90% right and I just want an earlier O day because it just fits better with my BD action and that damn spot that is confusing me??? Can you spot and have ovulation 4 days later???
 
Bleu, I've come to the conclusion that anything is normal in a cycle:haha:

I've just been playing with my FF and I don't get why it hasn't picked up ov. I had one temp, tip, but the rest of them are high :shrug:

good luck to those who have scans today:thumbup:
 
Sugar - just peeked at your chart and I see what you mean. It must be Day 14 for ovulation from your CM/positive OPKs/and major temp increase. I assume that dip was just a freak temp and you could even "ignore" it and maybe then FF would be happy to put CD14 as O day???
 
Liz I don't want to rain on your parade but I've found FF to be extremely accurate as long as I'm temping properly. I've even gotten false positive opks and my temps didn't confirm ov. Then I would get a temp rise later and sure enough I always got AF 12 to 13 days later. If you look at my chart 3 cycles ago where I ov'd on CD 32 you'll see an example of that. The opks I use are the smiley face ones so I wasn't reading the lines wrong.

You also can have a spot of blood several days before ov. There are a few theories about why this happens. One is that the egg is bursting through the follicle causing a little blood. But if that were the case you would see a temp rise shortly thereafter. Another reason is that the change in estrogen can cause a little spotting as well. This can happen several days before ov.

Honestly it doesn't look like you ov'd on cd 12. But you bd'd plenty to catch the egg. Even if you change your chart to make it look better, it isn't going to change what really is happening inside your body. Don't worry too much about it. You did everything right this cycle.
 
Thanks Amanda...for your honesty. I was grabbing at straws a bit there. As much as I hate to admit it FF is actually amazing and always has done a good job for me (even if I feel like a petulant child and want to rebel against its facts and figures). OK I concede...O day remains day 16.
 
Thanks Amanda :hugs:

Good luck to NATO and Mel hope all goes well for them both.

I am so :sleep: watching tv curled up on the sofa trying to stay awake as I know if I fall asleep I probably won't sleep tonight.
 
Thanks girls....I will update later once I am home......just finishing my cereal and then I am going to hit the road
 
Hmm, I've just tried to discard that low temp on FF Bleu and it's still not showing ov. I've also tried adding a few high temps for the next few days, and it still won't give me a coverline:shrug:

Hearty, charty expert:haha: have you any advice as to why it won't pick up ov?
 
Raz that's great news about your dog, and so cute that you are going to use your dopler on her. I can't wait to see pics of the little puppies when they're born:happydance:
 
PS Raz, it's a shame we can't all be like dogs and get knocked up so easily! They seem to BD once, and that's it!:haha:
