First month charting.. Confused!

[Chelsie]

I thought I was out this month, my temps dropped for 2 -3 days below coverline. Those nights I was not getting very much sleep either and I know that can mess with temping. Today I got up and my temp skyrocketed again. I am 9dpo (but my AF was due 3 days ago-- My cycles are only 21days long). I have been having headaches and some more preg. symptoms but I'm not sure if that is in my head or not. I also chart on FF and once I added my temps from yesterday and today it said it can no longer tell my OV. date and has no coverline or any info anymore. I am so confused!! (oh and I temp at the same time everyday and it's before I do anything!) Anyone seen this before?

Do you have a link to your chart hun? Might be that you ovulated later than you thought xx

I originally thought I O'd a few days sooner than FF said I did (FF said it was CD 15 originally before they took it off) In August I stopped taking BC and ever since my cycles have just been nuts! Making it exremely hard to get a BFP! I'm hoping the fact that I am 3 days late and my temp rose again this morning is a good thing.. but because my temp was below coverline (FF said coverline was 98.4 before they just took it off) for a few days !

Chelsie, I couldn't open your chart for some reason? You might want to put in the "specific" tab that you were sleep deprived for those days that you got your low temps, or just click the discard button to get rid of the temps all together. Sleep can definitely mess with your temps, so if you get rid of them it might recalculate your O date. Good luck and I hope your symptoms are pg symptoms! I also think I have some symptoms but I'm trying to stay calm!

Thank you!! I had already put sleep deprived and it did not do anything so I just discarded two of the temps and now my O date and coverline are back!! Hopefully we both get BFPs I am really impatient and will probably test tomorrow although it's only 10dpo and probably still too early

I'm totally testing tomorrow, its my birthday and I'm hoping for a birthday BFP, but 10dpo is probably too early, we'll see! Glad you got your red lines back, and good luck!

 

[Chelsie]

That would be an amazing birthday present!!! Good luck!!!

Hun if you are 9 dpo and AF was due 2 days ago, that makes you only have a 7 day luteal phase, thats REALLY short, and hard to get pregnant b/c implantation usually occurs right at that time and wouldnt have enough time to implant. You should look into taking a B complex or some form of b-6 to lengthen your LP.. Not saying its impossible, you could totally be preggers and i'm rooting for you, i hope this is it for yoU!

Yeah I was worried about that and I did start taking B-6 at the beginning of this month, so that could maybe be why I think I am a few days late too and it's actually just the B-6 working. I am on CD24 and assuming 9DPO because of FF and Ovulation tests. Or maybe my body is finally getting back to normal after being on BC for 3 years and my cycle is going to start getting longer. If i'm not pregnant and actually getting a longer cycle (so my LP is longer) I guess I will still be happy hah
