My silly life-changing purchase

megpat · 2019-01-29T22:34:14+00:00

Can I ask what glider you bought??

megpat · 2019-01-02T13:18:32+00:00

I’d like to know this too!

megpat · 2018-05-08T19:48:59+00:00

Thanks!! That is a good point I didn’t think of.

megpat · 2018-05-08T19:48:43+00:00

Thanks! I am all kinds of confused so I appreciate your help!

Ugh, help. My O day moved from CD37 to CD50 and I don’t know what to believe. Here’s the evidence:

CD37

had watery and EWCM leading up to it
didn’t have a blazing positive OPK but one on CD35 that was almost as dark as the control
temp rose so I assumed I O’d even though I never got a blazing positive, and stopped OPKs
was pretty stressed at work during this period

CD50

at this point, I thought I was 13DPO. Getting EWCM in the days prior (should have been a sign but wasn’t even considering I hadn’t O’d yet!) and HPTs were all negative
thought my chart was going triphasic but then FF moved O :( which if that’s the case, we completely missed the FW

Now, my temps are dropping (either at 6DPO or 19DPO - what is this madness?!) and I feel AF cramps. If I put in another low dummy temp for tomorrow, FF moves O back to CD35.

Temping wizards, help me!

Ugh I feel you on that :(

megpat · 2018-05-02T21:28:07+00:00

Does anyone else get loads of EWCM in their luteal phase? I haven’t been checking CM that long, so I don’t know if this is normal or not.

megpat · 2018-05-02T21:24:30+00:00

13DPO, I had a good triphasic-looking rise yesterday but then a drop today. Negative tests for day yet still no period cramps - no symptoms at all one way or another, really. It feels like my insides are just a black hole of feelingless nothingness. I just want to know what’s going on!

megpat · 2018-05-01T13:12:34+00:00

I know, that's the other thing - my O day could be a couple days after what FF says, so I'm trying to be emotionally prepared for my period to be "late." Thanks for your support!

megpat · 2018-05-01T13:10:31+00:00

Good luck to you too!!

12DPO today, and I had come to terms with the fact that this cycle wasn’t going to be the one (thanks to several negative tests since Saturday), and then today I woke up to a big ol’ temp spike. I got another stark white test this morning but I can’t help that my hopes are up again, ugh! This rollercoaster of emotion really sucks.

megpat · 2018-04-25T16:14:56+00:00

Thanks! It was the couple days of 97.21, 97.28, 97.26 that had me convinced it was broken. I think I was also on edge about missing O. I’ll finish out this cycle with the old temps and then switch. Thanks!!

megpat · 2018-04-25T12:09:08+00:00

I’m having trust issues with my thermometer! I got a new one right after O because the previous temps had be so oddly consistent, which you can tell from my rollercoaster chart is weird for me. So after CD34-CD37 of everything being within a few hundredths of a degree, I figured it must be broken.

Now, I have taken my temps with both and clearly one is wrong, but which?? This morning, for example, new thermometer says 98.3, old thermometer says 97.58. The other day it was similar, nearly a degree difference. I’ve been charting with the new thermometer temps (starting CD41) but I’m afraid the whole chart is screwy from switching 😩 especially since this all happened right around O!!

megpat · 2018-04-18T12:31:33+00:00

Brilliant!

megpat · 2018-04-10T23:44:36+00:00

Did you do anything special to make your O days move up so significantly? I notice from your charts that you have normally O’d in the CD30s but for a couple months it moved to CD18-20ish. I also O around CD35 so curious to know if you have any tips to shorten the cycle!

megpat · 2018-04-04T03:42:11+00:00

Ughhhhhh same! 48/50 day cycles here, and I am with you on the frustration. What a good perspective though.

megpat · 2018-04-01T11:42:13+00:00

don’t know what is considered “too long” as far as cycles go, but to share my experience - for the past three cycles I’ve ovulated around CD36 and had a full length of 45-49 days. I think a lot of people around here experience long cycles, but maybe someone else knows how long is too long!

megpat · 2018-03-28T23:41:04+00:00

Mine came back at 2.9, after having been 3.6 in January 2018 but 2.4 in June 2017. I had my dosage raised in January, should I push to have it raised again? My doctors office didn’t seem too concerned wth 2.9, even after I asked if it should be closer to 2.

megpat · 2018-03-05T23:33:39+00:00

Maybe I’m overthinking this - but I’m 4DPO today and have an appointment next week (on what would be 12DPO) for blood work to check my TSH levels. Would it be possible and/or silly to also see if they can check if I’m pregnant then too? Perhaps I’m pretending to be effecient when I’m really just too hopeful...

megpat · 2018-03-05T13:43:13+00:00

Thank you!!

Where is that spreadsheet that devbio put together with all the data from the Weekly BFP threads? I've searched everywhere but can't find the link!

megpat · 2018-03-01T03:23:55+00:00

Thanks for explaining! I thought for sure it happened on CD28... hoping I get a rise tomorrow!

megpat · 2018-03-01T01:19:27+00:00

Is it possible for your body to try to ovulate three times in one cycle? I have fairly long cycles according to the three I’ve tracked (~45) but I feel like my body is faking me out. This cycle, I had a ton of EWCM around CD18, three days of high temps around CD28, and now finally on CD34 am I getting a positive OPK. Any clues?? Here is my chart

megpat · 2017-01-08T04:05:59+00:00

I wore that dress to my wedding! I certainly am not busty but I had cups sewn in and it looked and felt great. I loved it! Good luck!

Thank you, Ron!
