My Ovulation Chart

Here's my chart if anyone wants to have a look. This morning when I took my temp i really thought i might be headed towards a triphasic chart, which i think made seeing the BFN even worse. Let's just hope for late impantation!

Oh, Blackrain, I really hope your tests turn into BFP! so exciting

Ahh that looks nice, hopefully you implanted 10DPO!!

Jesus....now i have someone elses pregnancy test on my phone.
I have officially lost my mind.

Delete.

Hahaha! I feel like I maybe see something in the right spot, but also feel like I see a couple other lines in the wrong spot too so might be going crazy haha.

Whoa! This thread went nuts after I left for school yesterday.

to all!

My line eye is developing quite nicely, thanks to you lovely ladies. And I caved again and tested this morning. BFN. But still absolutely zero signs of AF and still having that weird crampy/pulling sensation in lower ab and lower back pain. And I swear my nips were sore last night, but i was checking them all day... so maybe I did that myself.

Get your line eyes ready. I'm trying not to over analyze these myself.

So hard to say, I can't see anything but it won't let me get it big enough on my phone to really analyze it.

Omg I have been absolutely exhausted since I got to work. Like fall asleep at my desk exhausted. I also feel Like AF is about to start (crampy ache but not cramps). I am a bit shaky today, but I specifically remember feeling that way 10DPO last time we conceived. Little bit of heartburn too, and a tiny bit of brown in CM last time I checked CP not long ago, put in a tampon so will see what comes of that. I feel both in and out simultaneously haha.

@ Csc - your chart looks great!

 

[todmommy4568]

Blackrain I thought I could see something on the invert. I inverted and couldn't figure out how to post from my phone so I'm glad csc is more savvy than me haha. I see something in the right spot but only on the bottom

I think I may actually see something! Could be Line Eye, but definitely fingers crossed that you get a BFP in a couple days!

@ Csc - your chart looks great!

You think so? I just hope i see a rise and a BFP ! People always say when you have flat temps it must be your thermometer is broken. But this is the same thermometer that shows my shift with Ovulation....so who knows!

 

[cscbeth8421]

my latest this afternoon with a 3hr. Wicked line eye....

 

[Blackrain90]

Oooh oooh Beth I think I see the faintest something!!

 

[lvksa]

@cscbeth8421
I'm seeing something very faint too!

 

[cscbeth8421]

Fingers crossed!! Im off work till Tuesday for the holiday weekend. Ill be less cray cray while away from work. I just have too much time to obsess and a computer in front of me while at work. Ill be checking in just once or twice a day, but ill keep you updated on my silly hpt's! Fingers crossed for everyone!

 

[PnutProtector]

@cscbeth - I totally see something very faint!!

@blackrain - I was going crosseyed trying to analyze my pics and the actual stick.

@cupcake - I hope your line eye is better than mine, haha.


I talked to my mom today (like I said I wasn’t going to do) and she admitted that she always had trouble temping but that the OPKs worked the best for her. So i’m thinking that’s why she was telling me not to worry about temping that one time. So i looked up OPKs on amazon and found a super good deal with great reviews and it comes with HPTs. I’m going to ask DH when he wakes up if I should go ahead and order them, or wait longer.

I agree, generally the only months I knew for sure exactly when I ovulated where when I used OPK, Only because so many things can affect your temp. Are you looking at the 40 wondfo opk/10hpt pack? That's what I got.

Csc, keep us posted, hoping your tests get more positive!!

I absolutely hate to say this, but I really think I am pregnant. All the aching and pulling in my stomach reminds me of being preg last time. But then I get crampy and start to question it and think AF is coming, but I remember lots of cramps the first 8 weeks last time. I also don't like thinking I for sure am, because I'll be really bummed if I'm not, I feel like I'm jinxing it.

 

[cscbeth8421]

Cant wait to see your test tomorrow morning!!!!

 

[PnutProtector]

@blackrain - OMG I know what you mean. Part of the day I just feel it, and then other parts I don't. It's really weird. My mom is all "don't think about it and just relax, that's how I got you and your brothers" and I'm like, but you had regular cycles and started way earlier than I am. Relaxing and not thinking about it are so much easier said than done.

I'm going to keep temping, because maybe I am just starting to get the hang of it now, but I also think I'm going to order those OPKs. They are the Clinical Guard kind. 40 opk and 10 hpt. for $11.99

 

[todmommy4568]

So excited to see tests in the morning! I dipped an OPK for myself tonight because it has been 3 or 4 days since I have peed on anything and I knew my OPK would show a faint line no matter what

I am almost positive that I am dying Tuesday night I woke up coughing a couple times and in the morning I felt decent with the occasional coughing throughout the day yesterday. Now when I woke up this morning it was pretty constant coughing and super congestion. Now the angel and devil on my shoulders are totally fighting. On one hand I am going "maybe my body is getting ready for implant and that is why I am getting sick" and on the other hand I am saying "it is a cold you idiot, knock it off!"

You ladies are nuts. This place blew up today! loL!

So, 9DPO. Went ahead and tested after work today with IC (about a 5 hr hold) because todmommy is a bad influence. and it was stark white negative. Tried inverting and nothing. But I expected that.

I did freak myself out checking my CP/CM though. Mid-morning my CP was high/soft and CM was creamy + that creamy/ew consistency I mentioned earlier.

This afternoon (a few mins ago) CP was a little lower, probably Mid level. And because it was lower than I expected (and kind of tilty) I scratched the edge of my cervix with my nail a little (OW!!!). My cervix is already pretty sensitive, whenever my dr does my pap I always bleed, so I'm not surprised that there was blood on my fingers. I'm a little worried it's AF on her way, not just from a scratch, but the blood was bright red/pink and usually when I get blood in CM for before AF it starts out brownish and then turns to reddish. REALLY hoping that's what's going on. I'm a little nervous otherwise.

todmommy you are a horrible influence and, I went ahead and tested. lol BFN, as expected. Blah. My boobs are sore too but on the sides, not around the nipples at all. Which supplements are you taking?

Pnut I do that too- check my breasts so much, I think I'm making them hurt! LoL!

 

[cscbeth8421]

Pnut- i use the clinical guard opks! I get the 50pk for like $11.99. My co-worker just ordered them too. 😉

Fx'd it is not AF on her nasty way!! At this point I can't even tell where my boobs hurt, they are just big achey sacs that I no longer want lol. I am taking fertilaid, fertilecm, and ovaboost....basically I have some B6, red clover, vitex, coq10, some other fertility herbs, and the fertilaid also contains everything in a prenatal. They say take them up until you get a BFP and then stop and switch to a prenatal so you must not have to taper off at all. I think I am just worried like what if I stop taking them and it messes things up? I think I am just going to switch back to my prenatal, I am so sick of all the pills!

As for me being a bad influence, I think I will keep that up But when my turn to test comes next week I give you guys permission to be a bad influence on me lol

 

[todmommy4568]

yup!

Wow, that's a lot of stuff. I know that with Vitex by itself, you are supposed to taper, but I don't know about all that other stuff. I would follow the directions on the bottle I guess, or just switch back to prenatal. lol. I'm taking vitex, b6 and b-complex with my prenatals, so I have a multitude of pills I take every day.

 

[todmommy4568]

Yea, they basically put a little bit of everything in it seems haha. The dosages of these things like vitex though are in smaller doses than what you would take if you were taking it alone.
