Thanks . I'm planning on ignoring the crosshairs. I've also had a bit of a cough the past two days so wondering if that's affecting my temp. I generally also have fertile cm on & off for at least 5 days before o so to have none before or even day off makes me suspicious. Lol. I started temping because of that!

Also my alarm has been startling me awake lately and if I retake my temp 15 mins later (lying in bed not getting up or moving) its much lower (in 15 mins?). Also the weather is warming up. I wonder if I'm just super sensitive to my environment. That would explain my normal erratic temps too, right?? Lol

Oh the joys!

 

[Left wonderin]

The joys is right this is my first month temping but could do A phd on temping I've read so much lol...... I'm worried my temps are so low in the mornings ( now I am coming up to o/v soon ) but not sure I'm doing it right

I think it's fairly safe to say that TTC#1 after a Loss is really quite devastating. I felt so desperate all the time. It was awful. TTC#2 after a Loss has been very stressful and draining but no where to the same degree. It could change if I go through another m/c first (hope not...thinking positive!).

sunny - try bd' ing a couple days after your ewcm disappears too. Going by when I got my bfp, I must have conceived several days after mine dried up.

Good luck to you and to rayray!!

 

[Left wonderin]

Starry still smiling at your news ) have a great weekend with the family

 

[Sunnyleah]

Yeah I'm thinking next cycle will just be every other day except with fertile cm will be every day. Just stop temping and what not for a month. I'm definitely feeling the desperate feelings that you mentioned Starry. I think because I worry that I won't get pregnant again or if I do I may mc again. Also I'm turning 33 in a month and DH is turning 35 in the summer. We'd like 2 or 3 kids so the clock is ticking loudly.

 

[Carybear]

I completely understand Sunny... I feel the same way... I'm 37 and DH is 42... We've been trying since we got married over 2 1/2 years ago... Then, we get our BFP and lose it 4 days later... But I jut have to keep believing... I will hold my babies in my arms...

I'm saying an extra prayer for ya sunny...

 

[Left wonderin]

Cary keep the faith girl ) don't loose hope THERE IS A BIGGER PLAN

 

[Sunnyleah]

Left wonderin,

I was stalking! Lol. Do you know how long your luteal phase is? I'm just asking because sometimes low temps and a short luteal phase can be a progesterone deficiency. My temps used to be lower and a luteal phase of 10 days but that was my first few cycles off the pill. Over a year later my temps average higher and my luteal phase is now 12 days (but delayed o gives me 28-36 day cycles

Just a thought. You learn so much about your body temping and charting. It's wonderful. A great book for learning the ins and ours is taking charge of your fertility by dr Toni something... Lol

Good luck!

 

[Sunnyleah]

Carrybear,

Has the doctor helped you much at this point? 2 1/2 years is long . My cousin and a friend of mine have both started seeing a specialist but no answers yet. They are both older (one is 39 with 3 miscarriages and the other is 37 with one miscarriage but that's the only pg in 3 years).

Good luck to you! I hope you get your rainbow baby soon

Before m/c always had28/29 day cycles like clock work ! I never took much noticed but guessed I o/v around day 14-15 . Was only ttc for 3 months ( well only 2 months counting) before BFP . So I'm hoping my cycles has gone back to normal but not sure , that's half the reason I'm temping to try figure out when I o/v as last month with Opk tests got lots of +++++ from cd 9 to - 15 ran out then so gave up testing !!

 

[Sunnyleah]

Leftwonderin,

That a lot of positive opk's! Lol. I'm like you after BCP I was 28 days o on 18. (I started temping right away). After MC its much different. We got bfp on our 4th cycle the first time. Tis is now our 4th cycle trying since MC. But ff is confusing me!! First crosshairs at cd 14?? Never this early before... Long story. Lol and now this morning my crosshairs are dotted. Hmmm. Lol. Glad we didn't stop bd-ing! Perhaps I will get a true temp rise in a day or two.

Good luck with temping! I find my charts are hard to read until they're almost done. Lol. Not helpful in the moment. But long term they've helped me a lot.

 

[Left wonderin]

Thanks not expecting miracles but the information will be very helpful in terms of patterns for the future yes lots and lots of smiley faces !!!!

 

[anchor08]

How's everyone doing here? Anyone in the two week wait?

 

[tinyfootsteps]

Not me, only on CD 12 so just waiting.... Zzzzz!

How are you doing Anchor? Any new pregnancy symptoms?

 

[Carybear]

Hi all... Hope things are going good...

 

[anchor08]

Definitely feeling the fatigue, and some days I feel...like my stomach is off, not nauseous like I might lose it, just like mild indigestion, and it doesn't seem to matter whether I eat or not. Not horrible, just hope it passes soon! I'm trying to sort out the account with my insurance company from the miscarriage so they can settle with my gynaecologist so I can make an appointment to go in again!

 

[Starry Night]

That sounds stressful! Sometimes I take universal health care for granted. I mean, you get what you pay (or don't pay) for but chasing down insurance reps doesn't sound like my cup o' tea.

AFM - just really tired over here. Like anchor, I just feel a little off but it's still early. My nausea kicks in around 6 weeks or so. But I've never had it bad (never vomited).

Good luck to those waiting to ovulate! I hope it's your lucky month!

 

[anchor08]

Yeah, it's a pain. It's a two-tiered system here -- government hospitals and clinics are free, but long queues and not quite as good care if it's not a dire emergency. Private services are actually not too expensive if you have to pay out of pocket, but we do have insurance to pay for some things, so it's worth a bit of time to try to get them to pay first. I think I can still go in again if I need to, just don't want the embarrassment of phoning for an appointment while I have a 60+ days overdue account. It's not my fault, I swear!

 

[Starry Night]

We can get partial coverage up here too as not everything is covered (ie. ambulance, private rooms in hospital or dental) and you usually get that coverage through work but DH doesn't. We've looked into getting some in the past but it's just one more monthly bill. And you still have to pay out-of-pocket up front for a lot of things. You just get reimbursed for it later. However, a part of me still thinks it is worth it especially in regards to dental. I've avoided going for so long and good gum health is important for pregnancy! And I want DS to have good teeth too.
