TTC after loss - over 40 - any takers? Our lucky thread - 9 rainbows and 1 BFP

[Oasis717]

I just tried googling it and half and half results, some sayin pregnant others saying its common to get a surge of oestrogen right before af which can cause ewmc and temp drop which I think is what's happening with me. Af will be a relief as I can't stand these cramps much longer they're awful Gunna try sleep if I can now. Hope you're watching something good night hunni xxxx

 

[Oasis717]

Ok so now I am at a complete loss with my cycle. Tons more ewmc streaked with red blood last night and this morning. Temp shot up and one v positive opk. This has never happened to me before I've never got ewmc or pos opk right before af. Xxxx

 

[Soanxious]

That's strange hun.... I have no idea why this would happen, hopefully someone else here may possibly know today... and for it not to of happened before also is odd... have you thought about getting a saliva microscope? I am going to order one.... as I am not sure those opk's I buy are great, but will use both together... and for £17 if the microscope does work then will save money as its only saliva you have to use not more items to test.

I do NOT feel pregnant in the slightest way.. I have negative ic's and have No racing heart/sweats/sore bbs nothing... but my temp is still up and I had this pop up on the VIP part of FF..

THE FOLLOWING IS COPIED AND PASTED EXACTLY FROM FF JUST TO SHOW WHAT VIP HAS SAID ON THIS TOPIC

Implantation Signs: Possibly Triphasic on Day 23
What is a triphasic chart pattern? Does it mean I am pregnant if I have a triphasic chart pattern? Do I have to have a triphasic chart to be pregnant?

A triphasic chart shows three levels of temperatures: pre-ovulation, post-ovulation, and then a second rise around 7-10 days after ovulation. Some women with charts that show this pattern turn out to be pregnant. But many do not. Likewise, your chart does not need to show this kind of pattern for you to be pregnant. Whether or not you are pregnant, progesterone, the hormone responsible for raising your temperature after ovulation, generally peaks in the middle of your luteal phase and this can cause this kind of pattern whether or not you are pregnant.

A triphasic chart can be promising, however, because progesterone levels generally increase after implantation (7-10 days past ovulation) in conception cycles, and sometimes this results in a triphasic pattern. If your chart shows a second significant thermal shift that begins 7-10 days past ovulation, Fertility Friend will indicate a triphasic pattern in the Pregnancy Monitor. A triphasic chart, however, is not a definite sign that you are or are not pregnant. It is just increasing your probability if you also have well-timed intercourse. Likewise, you can be pregnant and not have a triphasic pattern. Like all signs of possible implantation or pregnancy, you can really only speculate about it once a pregnancy has already been confirmed.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I copied and pasted that so anyone else new like me to charting that does not have the VIP will know what to look out for.
So If I did not Implant until 3 days ago that wouldn't start releasing HCG till implantation? so would that mean I would start off 1 then Day two - 2 Day three - 4 Day four -8 Day 5 -16? or am I totally out here?? like I said I am new to all this so rather get it all out there... just so I know for future
On FF My Early pregnancy signs are at 53 but im not feeling it lol im prepared for AF this weekend... I have a headache from hell feels like a migraine coming..

I hope you find some answers today Becks I will try and read up too

Becks - I've had EWCM the day before AF because of progesterone lowering and estrogen rising, so that is a possibility. However, they say opks will be positive when you're pregnant... Do you have any more tests?

 

[crysshae]

Tanya - Having a triphasic pattern is not a guaranteed sign of pregnancy. It can happen on any chart, but it can happen with pregnancy too after implantation. This being your first chart, you don't know if that is something you do on a regular basis as your progesterone spikes. Who knows? Maybe you are pregnant and not feeling it is a good sign since it's different from the others.

I met DH when I was 23, and he was 35.

My mom, aunt, sisters, and I had gone out to a dance club. DH stopped in after the stockshow. The first time I saw him was when I was headed to the restroom, and he was in my path and said hi. I said hi back and went on to the restroom. Shortly after I went back to our table, he came up and asked me to dance. He was a great dancer. Like the gentleman he is, he walked me back to my table and he went back to his. But he came back a couple songs later and asked again. Then he bought me and all my family a drink. (After we knew each other for a while, he told me the first thing he saw that night was my butt lol. Then when I turned around, he knew he wanted to meet me, but worrying I might be stuck up he wanted to see if I would say hi first.) When he bought us drinks, I asked him if he'd like to sit with us. We danced all night, went to eat breakfast after the club closed, and then went back to his house and talked until 7 in the morning. I went back to my mom's house to shower and get DS and DD, and he called wanting to know if we would like to spend the day with him. The kids loved him. We've been pretty much inseparable ever since. He tells me he knew he was falling for me when we were eating breakfast. We met on January 18th and were married on March 15th.

Good luck Tilly! It could've been implantation spotting, like Tanya said.

 

[Soanxious]

I have never heard of this before Crystal thats why I posted it here as Im not sure if Tilly will ever start charting along with other newbies, and Becks does not have the VIP membership as it was showing up in that, im trying to pinch all the VIP info whilst its there as I am not sure I will be purchasing it in a few days time when it ends .. I know im not pregnant.. I have No symptoms what so ever so I know for me it maybe something to do with me changing my thermometer? Im just waiting for AF and eating healthier... I just wanted to know if after it how many Days past implantation it would show a + on HPT and it would of by now and I am still Neg.

Becks hey take another HPT lol

Crystal that is such a lovely story.. and was defiantly love at first sight too aww it's so nice getting to know how everyone met..

Tilly... Im so thinking this maybe good news

 

[tillyttc]

Soanxious iam thinking that if I dont get my bfp then the day af comes will start that day been on to fertility friend and had I look! and also looking at other peoples charts lol to get a feel for what I need to do ! I think the first day of af would be a good place to start as it will give me a full month ! Heres hoping I don't need it . Xx

I am hoping you will not need it at all but I started it on day one of my cycle last month I was hoping I would get pg and not have to keep charting lol.. oh well.. something for me to do whilst waiting for a baby..

 

[crysshae]

I have the VIP membership. I like having all those helps, and they always have a coupon on the site when it's time to renew and sell it to me for $25 per year, so not bad at all.

 

[Soanxious]

Wow thats cheap!! wish it was that cheap for me.. its on offer but at around £36 for me at the moment.

 

[crysshae]

Is that in the chart area where they tell you how much everything is?

If so, look above it and see if there is a spot for you to click on that is a special offer for you.

 

[Soanxious]

[Soanxious]

All I get is this..

Becks - Danny Dyer - SWOON I'm not allowed to watch Eastenders any more now he's in it

Will catch up with the rest of you ladies later - I've just got in from work and as usual no house cleaning fairy has been here so off I go again

[Left wonderin]

If ya find that housecleaning fairy and where they are hiding will you send them on to me when they have finished with you

 

[Oasis717]

Crystal I only have a dear one and I'm loathe to use it as I too think it's just a lowering of oestrogen before af. Strange though cause I tried opks when pregnant and never got a positive! Plus I did another opk tonight and it was neg. honestly I'm clueless. What a lovely story. I love hearing how everyone met xxxxx
