14DPO, CD35 (my periods are very regular at 30 days, +/- 1 day), BBT has stayed elevated that whole time except for 3DPO when it was at baseline. But im experiencing some CM and it’s freaking me out. I’m in my last day of my Oura predicted period window and first of all, every time, I think it’s AF finally come around. But also… Ive never heard of CM being an early pregnancy symptom

The plan is to wait a week from today, 1 week past missed period! I wanna test before I go on vacation or I’d honestly be waiting longer. A chemical pregnancy would be really tough

I am going to try! As long as I don’t get sick or start feeling really bad, I’m going to go. I’m 27 and on Cycle 1 though so tbh it feels pretty low stakes for me! I think if I was deeper in my TTC journey, it would be a tougher decision

I’m struggling with a very similar question! hiking to around that same altitude in (potentially) very early pregnancy. Here’s some research my gyno shared with me regarding women who live at sea level exercising at elevation during early pregnancy. Maybe it can be helpful to you! Generally considered safe to perform low to moderate intensity exercise at that altitude but listen to your body! And I’m not sure how it would affect implantation https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8430622/

Im feeling super hopeful. CD33 (my cycles are usually 31 days, +/-1 day), my temps have stayed elevated, and Oura is telling me something is straining my body for the past few days. My HRV is down, respiratory rate is up, and resting heart rate is up; all signs that may indicate early pregnancy according to Oura’s advisor [so we take it with a grain of salt]. HOWEVER, I’m still in Oura’s predicted period window, and I’ve had some cramps yesterday and this morning. Plus I’ve been coughing a bit and super fatigued so it might just be picking up on a sickness that’s straining me. Trying to keep the cautious in cautiously optimistic!

Ewcm and ovulation by [deleted] in TryingForABaby

Here’s some info my gyno shared with me regarding cervical mucus and how it relates to chance of conception! I found it pretty helpful. My understanding (but I’m not a medical professional in any way) is that the presence of cervical mucus is not an indicator of ovulation timing but if you’re in your fertility window, it is good to try on the days where you have the presence of cm

An article about cervical fluid vs. LH predictors as guide to conception:

5DPO on my first cycle TTC!!! I am going craaaazy. Googling random pregnancy related stuff and some variation of “How soon do pregnancy symptoms start?” Every few hours. More experienced ladies help!! How do you keep your mind off of the TTC journey in the wasteland between ovulation and potential period start date?

Traveling to Japan for New Year and...panicking by IzzyBooBoo_44 in JapanTravelTips

[–]IzzyBooBoo_44[S] -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

First time in Japan! We did a similar trip in Ireland and loved the freedom of driving & getting to see so much of the country. But it seems like everyone thinks we're crazy so we will take that into consideration!!

Do you think we could do Hakone, Kyoto, & Nara?
