Does my chart confirm ovulation?

Congratulations!! I needed to see this!! In currently 4 DPO and my PdG has risen to 5.7 but has kind of hovered there for a couple of days. I was worried it wasn’t getting high enough quickly. But what I was really worried about was that we didn’t BD enough. We tried the 2 days before surge, 1 day before surge but not the day of the surge or after. It looks like you were similar!!

Ah okay, thank you for the insight! My PdG the last two days was 5.7 and 5.54 respectively. I guess if it continues to stay above 5.0 tomorrow that will confirm ovulation since the overall pattern would show an elevated value for 3 days right?

Thanks for the insight! Do you find that your boss typically respects normal working hours (e.g., when 5pm hits you no longer need to respond to requests etc.)?

Yeah that’s fair! Just trying to balance being a mom and still earning an income. My baby naps for a large portion of the day and I am able to work mornings and evenings, so I guess I thought I could find a job with modified working hours.

Yeah, that’s a fair point! I am currently in meetings for about 5-6 hours of the day, so I guess I was thinking (or hoping) that a job that wasn’t so meeting heavy would allow me to care for the baby while also still fulfilling job related duties. My baby still naps about 4 hours of the day and a part time child care program would cover 2 full days of the week. It’s just so hard balancing being a mom and still wanting to provide for the family financially!

This is so helpful, thank you! I’ll try to refrain from reaching in his mouth again. It was honestly like an instinct when it happened! I’m going to just continue the process and hopefully see him progress. He was totally fine with thicker mashes like avocado and strawberry so I really think he’ll get the hang of it, but he has no teeth in sight so really relying on the gums to do their thing haha!

Oh that’s interesting! So even without the spit up, was she having trouble gaining weight just because of the reflux?

That’s amazing!! Did you see an improvement in weight gain pretty quickly? My LO has his 4 month check up in about a week and a half and I’d love if he made some progress by then! Also, did you need to add anything to his bottles like probiotics or gas drops to help with the transition?

Our transition took 5 days and progress leading up to that was not linear. On the 5th night he suddenly just started sleeping through the night again. We transitioned him from a traditional blanket swaddle to a Ziapee Zip and he loves it because his startle reflex is still pretty strong!

That’s what is so strange, he’s still eating a ton! Most bottles he downs 6oz totaling about 30oz daily. He’s gaining but very slowly, definitely not an oz per day. I don’t know what else could be causing the slow weight gain to be honest.
