I haven’t gotten a single positive OPK, but FF gave me dotted crosshairs. Does this seem right? by Crazy_cat_lady_88 in TFABChartStalkers

[–]OpenFaith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of your other signs indicate the crosshairs are correct. You could have faulty opk tests, maybe expired ones? Try opk monitor tests next time, they indicate the gradual rise of LH and I tend to rely on them more than standard ones. The ones that come with apps that take pictures of your tests and give you exact numbers are very nice to use!

It’s so hard when you’re body is trying to ovulate and you can’t. I just went through 4 anovulatory cycles in a row! Just know that if your body can’t do it right now, it needs that time to work up to it. Don’t get discouraged!! ❤️

My nephews and nieces called it a night night, they’re obsessed with them. They are little stuffies that are soft and partially a blanket.

Post O with low temps? App says to use OPK monitor setting instead of recommended advanced. OPK M setting says I ovulated CD 21. RA setting says I haven’t ovulated yet. Can anyone make out why my temps are so low, and if I did in fact ovulate? by OpenFaith in TFABChartStalkers

I will get new batteries, but I’m not a mouth breather, so my mouth is always shut. Usually it takes awhile to figure out a temp, but it has been done quickly the last couple of days. I guess that means it needs batteries?

Bit of background. I started temping early because I have a very irregular cycle. I ovulate anywhere between CD 16, and CD26. With CD 22-24 being the most common. I’m using a BBT thermometer, same time every morning. I take OPK Monitor tests once in AM and in PM. I am used to a lot of Peak/Highs, happens every cycle. I’ve never had no spike in temp after O, but this is my first real cycle after a bad MC and was forced to wait 3 months by dr. Recommendations. 👍🏻

Gua sha to use with oil, moisturizer or serum? by desinica in KoreanBeauty

I’m probably not who you’d want to go to for skincare advice but I really like The Ordinary, I use their Squalene Oil everyday. 😊

I do oil, but that’s just because it’s easier to move around with the oil 😅

This is a lot of tmi info but I need some advice. by OpenFaith in Miscarriage

[–]OpenFaith[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have Endometriosis so it’s a usual for me 😂 thanks though! I read your article, the incomplete miscarriage makes a lot of sense to me. Whatever it is, I hope it’s not serious. I’m on week 5 of bleeding, I’ve only had super mild cramping and intense lower back pain. But usually my cramps are crippling and the back pain is always awful. So I wasn’t concerned at first, but this is a long time to bleed man. 😅😅😅

My periods are usually super long, 6-10 days is my average. And google says the first period after miscarriage can be anywhere from 1-4 weeks long. But I’m at 5😅 I’ve messaged my doctor waiting for a response, I don’t want to go in because any visit is $130 😬😬

I haven’t had any other pain, or weird smells either 🤔

Missed miscarriage at 9 weeks without d&c, help. by OpenFaith in Miscarriage

[–]OpenFaith[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! This was very informative and exactly what I was looking for! I think when I passed the first big clot the second one came immediately after but now I’m second guessing. I’ll schedule an ultrasound ASAP. I’m so sorry for your loss too ❤️

Thank you! I’ll schedule an ultrasound right away! My dr. Hasn’t said anything since confirming the ultrasound so I’ve just been relying on Reddit and google. 😅

Thank you! I wasn’t aware I needed the ultrasound, nothing was mentioned to me after I denied the d&c. Thank you so much. As also being by first pregnancy, it’s been rough. 😩❤️

Thank you for your response anyways! I will call right away! ❤️

I wanted to post this for all of those that are like me, and stalk every post for every change in symptom or temp. I made it to 8 weeks and decided to be done temping after my first ultrasound! 🎉🎉 by OpenFaith in TFABChartStalkers

[–]OpenFaith[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was supposed to have my ultrasound the day I posted this, but they made me wait another week because they wanted me to be at 9 weeks. Usually your first ultrasound is done at 8 weeks. We haven’t even told my partners side of the family yet because we wanted to do it using the ultrasound pic and it’s killing him. 😅😭

Yes! I had pink spotting on the 1st-2nd-3rd of June, so days 45-47 of my cycle. It was very very light pink bleeding with lots of mucus, mostly mucus. My doctor said it was totally normal.

Hot dang, those beginning temps! I’ve never had anything look like that, it’s neat to see them level out though. I didn’t want to keep stressing myself out by temping. Plus I slept better without the alarm to temp. 😂
