Looking for cycle buddy/ies, CD2! Let's get through it together!

Bee Bee what is the temp rise? I took my temp this morning and it went up but I've only gotten highs on cbfm and this morning I took my temp myself so I woke up and layed there moving around for about 5 minutes then sat up to get it myself around 8;00 where I've been taking it at 6am everyday with my fiance waking me up and putting it in right away, should I still count the temp or no? Sorry You just seem to know so much about temping and I'm no good at it lol! Thank you!

 

[Bee Bee]

I would maybe toss out todays temp since it was taken so much later than your normal time. BUT, you still have what looks like a temp rise going to me. Tomorrow's temp will let you know for sure! (Since you need 2-3 temps to be sure)

Really, when it comes to taking the temp late, I find that taking it up to 45mins/1 hr later doesn't make too huge of a difference, but 2 hrs certainly does.

Either way, if you look at my chart below, that is basically a textbook temp rise. And the temp rise occurs AFTER you've release your egg. So, that lowest temp that is marked by crosshairs was my O day

Also, I suppose I should say that the temp rise is a rise in your temp of around .4 and it continues going up fir a few days then peters out and stays high for he rest of your cycle until AF.

I'm having a very slow rise/plateau (3-4 DPO) and it looks totally different from my other full chart. Trying to stay positive but it's making me nervous/discouraged!

 

[Jsjskanamks]

Thank you so much! This temping is all new to me :/ hoping I get a peak day tomorrow so I can go to the dr for the post coital test but I'm kinda thinking it may be too late?

 

[Bee Bee]

If you are supposed to go before O, then yeah it might be. Cuz at the moment it's looking like you might have O'd on Friday

 

[Jsjskanamks]

Ugh I feel like I'm stressing so much about this Is it possible to have had a negative opk and advanced ovulation test Thursday then o friday?

 

[Bee Bee]

Yes, it's always possible to miss your LH surge. This is why I prefer POAS OPKs over digital. I'm not sure I trust the digis. But with POAS you can see the progress of your OPKs and get an idea of if you missed your surge or not.

 

[Jsjskanamks]

I've been taking poas opks too, ugh well we will see. If I did O friday do you think we bd enough? really hoping this is the month I'm going crazy!

 

[Bee Bee]

Yeah, absolutely! You BD'd on O day and the morning after (if it is in fact O day) and 2 days before O. Thats a pretty good spread in my opinion.

 

[Jsjskanamks]

Okay thank you I hops so We were gonna wait to bd in the morning to go to dr but I think I'm gonna say forget it. my poor fiance is getting overwhelmed and I'm with him I'm sick of planning bd If this month isnt it I think I'm gonna take a break on opk next month and just take a break, after 9 months of planned bd I think we will need a month of break :/ Gonna be positive this tww but getting discouraged

 

[Jsjskanamks]

Sorry I feel like I'm being so negative and whinny. Where else is everyone on their cycles/ how are you ladies feeling anything new anyone?

 

[Bee Bee]

Its alright! I understand! I have been trying for for 19 months so I understand how it feels. Its good to take a break every once in a while or just NTNP from time to time.
We've actually planned BD this whole time lol. But as we see it it's just for a week of the month, then the rest of the month is whenever we feel like it.

 

[Jsjskanamks]

Looking at my chart today do you still think I o'd friday? This is so confusing, still a high on both cbfm and cb ad o test

 

[Bee Bee]

Hmmm, it's another one of those thing where you just have to wait and find out! You are still BDing which is good just in case you haven't.

 

[LilMiss_91]

Wow, so many posts to catch up on since I last checked in!

How are you ladies all getting on? Where is everyone cycle-wise?

I'm on CD14, been using OPKs every day since CD3 and Clearblue Advanced Digital Dual Hormone tests since CD10. On CDs 12, 13 and today I've got a flashing smiley face on the CB test and not a lot on the cheapie OPKs. Starting to worry I won't get a "peak" on the CBs and have to buy a whole new kit as I only have 4 test sticks left.

I feel so bleh today, a bit teary, irritable and just generally not in a great mood. And I feel SO tired today. Feel like I'm waiting for something that's not going to happen.

 

[Jsjskanamks]

I hope you get your solid smiley soon! Thats what I'm waiting for too! I'm cd 15 not sure if I o'd or not yet! And if I did I missed the opportunity to get my test done at the dr

 

[Bee Bee]

Lilmiss- I am CD20 and 6DPO. Going to test either the 18th or the 20th.

Jsjs- I still def think you ovulated! Your temp is going up and down a little, which can happen, but it's on an upward climb.

 

[Jsjskanamks]

I just dont get why I didnt get a peak reading, and why I had a low on thursday and why I still have a high reading since then ugh

 

[Jsjskanamks]

Hoping you get your bfp btw how are you feeling?
