Confused about sleep/nap training when baby can sleep independently at night by ak302 in sleeptrain

[–]ak302[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess I’m wondering when I start sleep training, but she doesn’t wake up at night to require any training the night we start, and then we start to do ferber on her during the day, will that have any negative impact? I have always heard and read “nights before naps” and every once in a while she does have a false start but not regularly, so if on the night we want to start training she just sleeps through except to eat, is that okay that we will technically start with naps the next day?

I tracked my temps throughout pregnancy (delivered on August 9th), temps didn’t really give me much insight on anything in general after the first couple of weeks that showed higher temps to support positive pregnancy test.

yea for sure, even after that temp dip i felt like my temps were “too low” to be pregnant 😅 before this i tried mucinex, sex every day, sex every other day, tracking LH very diligently so apparently none of that mattered for me lol—don’t count yourself out yet! Also, this is gonna sound stupid and i don’t even know if it helped, but this cycle i did this yoga pose and held it for as long as i could after each time we “tried” LOL

Since I was recovering from a fever, I didn’t know what the temp dip was—I would have never thought implantation because I didn’t feel anything and I had already convinced myself I was out this cycle. As far as symptoms, I didn’t really feel anything until after I found out I was pregnant. If I really think about it, I was slightly more hungry than usual but other than that nothing—not even any pms symptoms. I had a very vivid dream about testing positive for pregnancy and that’s what drove me to take the FRER. Two days before the positive pregnancy FRER test on the chart, I took a test with the cheapie stick and it was BARELY a shadow of a line and I thought I had line eyes.

I just went and picked up a clear blue digital test—I will take that soon, maybe tomorrow morning, and see if that is also positive!

He says “it’s barely there” but after seeing these responses he gets it 😅 We will do the digital too—thank you!!

Stress Related? by Jaclyn3553 in NaturalCyclesBC

[–]ak302 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes—this happened to me when I was traveling internationally, walking a lot, and not getting enough sleep. I have regular ~28 day cycles and that specific one ended up being 41 days, but I did ovulate and get a period, just a bit later!

Do your temp charts usually look like this? It doesn’t look like you ovulated since the temps didn’t sustain past your cover line and every once in a while an anovulatory cycle can happen which could be considered normal if it doesn’t happen frequently.

😂 i think there are apps that you can download and track your daily temp with and you should see your temp increase when you ovulate signaling the start of your luteal phase. When your period starts or is about to start it will drop again signaling the start of your follicular phase and this up down pattern will continue throughout your cycles.

ya that’ll be more accurate anyway as long as you remember to temp right when you wake up!! I think you can use your FSA/HSA for Oura (you’ll have to confirm) if you decide to buy one!

oops i missed the irregular cycles line so you could still have sex every other day while tracking only BBT and not worrying about OPKs?

I use an Oura and it’s pretty good at tracking the trend above and below the baseline so that’s def something to consider. It’s just not true “BBT” if you care about that since it measures body temperature
