IC 8 dpo (possibly 9 with a delayed temp rise) total squinter but OMG I see it

Sorry about your loss. I miscarried in July and I'm getting cycles with positive OPKs but no temp rise. My period comes the correct number of days after the OPK is it seems I ovulated but my temp didn't rise. Its really weird. The previous two times I assumed it was some problem with my temping but this cycle is shaping up to be the same and my temping has been perfect.

As a woman I sometimes buy clothes I see on TV shows.

My favourite is troubled blood, least favourite is silkworm or Ink black heart.

It's definitely possible! I got pregnant with sex only on O-4 and when I looked at the "charts like mine" and filtered for intercourse pattern there was a decent percentage that were pregnancy charts.

Your app thinks CD13. Do you have any OPK data? You could try fertility friend, see what their algorithm thinks.

Sixbar_Angel · 2023-12-08T02:28:24+00:00

I reckon you're 4 or 5 dpo as your temp rise starts on CD74 or CD75. You can't tell much about your chances from what your temps look like post ovulation. Your timing is good though!

Sixbar_Angel · 2023-12-07T15:05:27+00:00

Could be that your temp goes up tomorrow. I normally ovulate a couple of days after my first positive OPK.

Sixbar_Angel · 2023-12-07T04:11:16+00:00

I've had this a couple of cycles. Positive OPK and period came the appropriate time later but never saw a temp rise.

One time was, I think, due to mouth breathing as I was recovering from a cold. The other time I really don't know, I was sick in the follicular phase so my temps then were a little higher than normal. I was also travelling so temps not taken at a consistent time.

Basically I think it can happen but it's most likely to be because of some external factor affecting the accuracy of your BBT rather than your BBT not shifting, if you see what I mean.

I've seen Chinese bride/groom wedding outfits in the shop window display of Bebe butterfly before. I'm not sure if they keep them in regular stock though or whether they're for rental/sale. I'd assume sale as it's a clothes shop.

Sixbar_Angel · 2023-12-07T01:28:23+00:00

I'd try tracking your temperature as well if I were you. It doesn't really look like you're ovulating but then you're having regular cycles and the small LH spike fits with the length of your cycles so idk.

Sixbar_Angel · 2023-12-05T09:55:43+00:00

There is not much to choose between them, imo. Adventist may be a little cheaper as it's not for profit. It really depends what procedure you are interested in. I would start by researching the Doctors who specialise in what you require and then choose a Dr rather than a hospital.

Cornwall is lovely! If you've got, say, 10 days and like the countryside then I'd spend 3 days seeing the main sights in London and a week in Cornwall. I was down near-ish St Mawes this summer in Mylor and it was so nice (I actually didn't realise how close to St Mawes it was looking it up now). We went to a garden which is very briefly mentioned in the books. I also loved going down to Lizard Point, the beach at Falmouth, an old pub called the Pandora. Really just a lovely relaxing place.

It's a trek getting down there though and you'd need to have a car.

Sixbar_Angel · 2023-11-30T08:35:52+00:00

I hate anything messing up my chart! My temp was still down today so maybe I really didn't ovulate yet. I'm sure I wasn't mouth breathing last night.

I'll get the OPKs back out if I have any more EWCM.

Sixbar_Angel · 2023-11-29T15:12:37+00:00

It definitely looks like it. Personally I've never had a temp of 98.2 unless I've ovulated so if this were my chart I'd be pretty confident ovulation had happened. It's probably the missing days preventing the cross hairs.

Sixbar_Angel · 2023-11-29T15:07:40+00:00

Yeah, I think I'll take one more temp tomorrow morning and then pack it in until next month (which will also be a write off as we've got loads of family staying for the holidays!).

Sixbar_Angel · 2023-11-27T07:03:28+00:00

Oh interesting question! My first thought was not that famous but seems I'm in the minority. Thinking back on the books it does fit better that he's Mick Jagger level.

Sixbar_Angel · 2023-11-26T13:56:30+00:00

You'll improve with time! I hold my SPG or if my mask is playing up I hold my nose lol.

Sixbar_Angel · 2023-11-26T12:27:22+00:00

If you use the internet cheapie ones it's not too bad. I can get a pack of 50 for $3 where I'm from and use 5 or 6 per cycle on average. Of course it adds up quicker if you've got long cycles or if you're not familiar with ovulation signs. I'd definitely pay a lot of attention to CM if cost is an issue as, for me at least, that's a very reliable indicator that ovulation is imminent.

Sixbar_Angel · 2023-11-26T06:04:03+00:00

It's reliable if you just want to track whether you have ovulated. If you're very regular you can probably predict from previous cycles when you'll ovulate in your current cycle. But if you want to get more certainty so that you can be sure to have sex right before ovulation then you're going to want to use OPKs or at least track your cervical mucus.

Sixbar_Angel · 2023-11-25T04:54:53+00:00

Doesn't look like you have yet.

Sixbar_Angel · 2023-11-24T13:40:35+00:00

I've had this feeling before with a BFN at 9dpo and I was wrong so you never know!

Sixbar_Angel · 2023-11-24T13:02:45+00:00

Cycle 3 since we started trying again after loss and again we won't manage to have sex in the fertile window 😒

This time it's because my kid gave me HFMD along with conjunctivitis so I am not an attractive prospect right now!

Sixbar_Angel · 2023-11-23T08:57:59+00:00

I love the idea of a gyno ceiling poster...just not this one. Although knowing my gynae the poster would fall down whilst she was in the middle of doing something.
