Impatient, sorry to hear you got a BFN but those sound like promising signs. How long is your average luteal phase, do you know?
Sahrene, looking good for a possible ovulation on cd 7. Still need a few more days of high temps but looks promising!! Have a great time in Vegas, how fun!!
Sweetmama, so glad to hear the inspection went well, do you have an official move in date?
Foxy, glad to hear that your 2 year anniversary of ttc (this go around) is coming up soon, really hoping you get the attention and tests that you deserve. Can't wait to hear what you think of the SoftCups. Thanks for the well wishes. I had acupuncture today and she put 2 needles in my arms to help with that. I actually feel much better today, the white spots are still on my tonsils but I'm very prone to throat infections and usually time and extra vitamin c helps to clear them up.
Snuggs, so very happy that you are happy about AF coming and putting an end to the never ending cycle! Really hope this is a fresh start for you with a much earlier and definitive ovulation.
Nicole, I had a few words with your hormones and told them to play nice this cycle!! Glad you got some BD'ing in last night, always good to do whenever potential fertile cm is around.
Posh, glad to see you. Hope that the big O comes soon for you and then you can join us in the 2ww!
Jamie, thanks for the good thoughts on the chart. I let myself get excited the last few days so I'm really trying to ground myself to prevent disappointment in a week or so. I try to walk a fine line between hoping for a BFP but knowing that the odds are more in favor of a BFN. I really hope that gyn appointment turns into an OB appointment for you
So far your temps look great!
AreIn, sorry that the witch got you. But on a positive note you have your first complete chart and that will really help you in this next cycle. Looks like you have a nice long luteal phase, good high post o temps.
to you!!
Xshell, glad to hear that you're seeing some positive ovulation signs. A miscarriage can really throw things off so it's totally possible to ovulate before a proper AF. Fingers crossed for you!! Oh and regarding the cm and how to record, just make sure you're not confusing his swimmers with ew or watery cm. I know sometimes I have a very hard time telling the difference. What I usually do is run the cm between my fingers. If it starts to get tacky and sticky after maybe 10 seconds I assume it's the swimmers. If it stays slippery then I mark it as ew or watery.
Tierney, thanks for thinking of me!! Your temps continue to look really good and your BD schedule was stellar so you really have a shot this month!!
Welcome
Tessa! Link works great. I'm curious if the bleeding you experienced on cd's 30-33 wasn't really the start of a fresh cycle? That would put your ovulation at a normal cd 17 instead of cd 46 (which is considered late ovulation). Also, for your poll it may help if you include your BD schedule. I realize that's highly personal information but many women choose to include it on their public chart so folks can see if you hit your fertile window. If you want to include it I believe the option is under your Home Page Settings. Looking forward to watching your chart continue to develop!
Welcome
BabyDixon! It's totally normal for the temp to drop dramatically when AF starts. Some see a dramatic drop the day AF arrives, others a gradual ramp down over the course of AF. It's also normal for pre ovulation temps to be all over the place. Mine only level out a few days before ovulation, the first part of my cycle looks like a heart monitor.
Sticky glue to our recently pregnant ladies and those in the 2ww, baby dust to those approaching O, and PMA to those the witch got.
