October Sticky Beans!

[cupcake.]

Good morning had a weird night, OH was snoring quite badly and at about 2:30 i was up because i felt super nauseous (spelling? Haha ) so when i took my temp at 5am it was super high at 36.5something.. but since i didn't have full three hours of sleep before and was up feeling sick i didn't even record the temp. But i hope it's not a new start of roller coaster temps...

Todommy- im doing good! Testing in a minute. 16 dpo.

 

[cscbeth8421]

Yep. That is some progression. Ok. Officially done testing. Bloods on tuesday. 😀

Nice beth!

On AF watch here (due today) Had some light pms type symptoms (light cramping, sensitive nipples) but that seems gone this am. Temp drop does not seem promising. I've not paid tons of attention to my period except in the last few months as ttc is uncharted territory, so no idea if that is normal for me!

How nice beth! What a pretty line

MsRipple, FX AF stays away for you

Out of curiosity I just took my temp and it was 36.01, so definitely more pre O territory and so i guess my weird high temp this morning was definitely due to not much sleep and feeling sick during the night. So i'm glad I didn't record it

So happy for you Beth, what a nice line!

Ripple - sorry about your temp drop

Cupcake - I don't know Celsius and I just woke up so I don't want to convert anything lol but that would make sense to have a higher temp when sleeping cruddy. Hopefully you are feeling better!

Gutted. My temp dropped back down again this morning. Which was weird since I was sweating under all our covers, but it was chilly last night. Still no AF. FF predicted Thursday but the last 2 cycles have been 34 days, so that would be Monday or Tuesday. HOWEVER. Last night I craved steamed green beans with melted butter and salt, so that's what i ate for dinner. Then DH heated up some leftover pizza and I got nauseous from the smell of it. Had to light a candle! And for the past two days I have crazy dry mouth and lots of watery/creamy CM.


That's such a lovely line Beth! So excited for you!

So sorry about your temp drop Ripple. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that AF stays away anyways!

Cupcake - I'm sure that your high temp was def due to crappy sleep. I hope you get better sleep tonight.

todmommy - Don't tempt me! I have a stash of IC in the bathroom that are calling my name, but with all the crazy and conflicting symptoms I don't wanna upset myself more by potentially seeing a BFN.

Well here is my tests from this morning. Did an opk just out of curiosity. I made sure I dipped the IC first. I can definitely see a shadow line that is sticking around this time unlike yesterday when it disappeared, very hard to see in the pictures though. I am taking it as a good sign though as these haven't ever given me a shadow line unless preg like last cycle I did one at like 3dpo and no shadow or hint of anything.

todsmommy the poas addiction is real

 

[PnutProtector]

Todmommy you poas enough for us all!

So, out of curiosity, do you guys usually find that your temps during AF are below your coverline from the previous month? Because this new cycle I haven't really dropped below my cover line from last cycle yet (except yesterday's temp which was just below) and that feels odd to me. Especially combined with the light bleeding.

I know....I feel like I'm in denial that AF has come. And I know that. Mostly I just think this is being weird and I want to know why. I don't like when my body acts odd. I'm having an emotional sort of day.

Yep. That is some progression. Ok. Officially done testing. Bloods on tuesday. 😀

That is a gorgeous line beth!!!!

The OPK is pretty dark, I can't see anything on the other, but what does that mean. I'm hoping the dark OPK is a sign!!

I wish I could offer some advice on temps, Angel5, but we all know FF doesn't like me much. but looking at your past charts that does seem a little odd.

 

[Angel5000]

That's what I thought. :-/ Out of curiosity I decided to take out my AF on FF and see what my chart would look like if I mapped the temps for the last several days on my chart from last cycle. If it wasn't for the little dip at 13DPO below the cover line, (and the fact that I am bleeding, although very very lightly) I'd think I was still in my previous cycle based on my temps. I've attached the pic because I did go and fix it on my actual chart.

I'm going to see what tomorrow's temps do. Maybe they'll drop tomorrow

 

[MsRipple]

angel have you tested again? Possible this is just spotting?

 

[todmommy4568]

pnut I really do

I'm with ripple, have you tested again? My pre o temps this month were close to my post o temps this month so I know it is possible.

 

[Blackrain90]

Hmm Angel I believe some months it would take a little while for my temp to drop all the way back down. But if AF continues to be sparse I would test just to rule that out.

 

[Blackrain90]

Oh. That said I just checked my chart and they actually would drop the second day of AF for the most part.

 

[cscbeth8421]

Todmommy- maybe the start of something!!!!! Fingers crossed!

 

[Angel5000]

That's what I expect is a drop the second day of AF - and so they did drop the 2nd day of AF but back up today.

I tested on the day that AF was due (Wednesday) and BFN. I thought I saw a shadow of something on the test strip but it has dents on it so I can't be sure. That would have been 11DPO. If tomorrow's temp doesn't drop maybe I'll test again to be sure. All I have left is a FRER. At 14-15DPO that should be enough to tell if it is, right?

Today I have had bleeding but I've used an incredibly light liner (think the lightest liner you've seen - it's paper thin, and small) and only changed it once (and its 5pm). The blood I'm getting now is very light red colored with some brown. For 3rd day of AF this is unusually light. I really want to test right now but I imagine my urine would be too diluted.

 

[MsRipple]

I'm still waiting out af (due today). Had one spot of brown cm earlier today but nothing since. I guess my luteal phase may go a bit longer? Last two cycles are the only ones I charted/opked and each time my lp
Was 11 days.
