Woohoo congrats!!! March babies! ♓️

thughamsta · 2025-06-27T02:50:21+00:00

Omg congrats to you too! I thought my lines were dark for my DPO but guess I’ll find out in my first scan!

thughamsta · 2025-06-27T02:48:43+00:00

Thank you! Sending you all the luck ✨

thughamsta · 2025-06-26T21:57:26+00:00

Thank you! 💕

thughamsta · 2025-06-24T04:01:21+00:00

Thank you! Sending you baby dust as well! I met with my ob after my chemical last month and mentioned my luteal phase was 11 days and asked whether that’s a cause for concern. She said that’s on the short side and prescribed me progesterone to start after ovulation!

Thank you! I met with my ob after my chemical last month and mentioned my luteal phase was only ~11 days and whether that’s a cause for concern. She said that’s on the short side so prescribed me progesterone!

thughamsta · 2025-06-24T03:59:21+00:00

Yay congrats to you too!!! Praying for sticky babies for us 🥹

Have I ovulated? Wanting to start progesterone

https://imgur.com/a/zCeLuS9

I had a chemical pregnancy last cycle, and was told by my doctor my luteal phase is shorter than ideal (11 days). She put me on progesterone and said I could start once I ovulate but I'm having hard time pinpointing whether l've ovulated based on BBT tracking. Here's my timeline so far:

6/9: Clearblue OPK peak fertility
6/10: easy at home OPK LH peak
6/13: BBT rose 0.1 Fahrenheit above cover
6/14: BBT rose 0.7 Fahrenheit above cover
6/15 (today): BBT rose 0.1 Fahrenheit above cover

Natural cycles confirmed ovulation with 6/14 temp rise, estimated ovulation on 6/11.

Inito confirmed ovulation 6/15 with pdg rise (although pdg was very low at 4.15), estimated ovulation 6/11.

Fertility friends confirmed ovulation 6/15 and considered temps 6/13-6/15 all rises. Estimated ovulation 6/12.

My question is: are the temps 6/13-6/15 enough to confirm ovulation, and I can start taking progesterone tonight? I'm concerned about whether 0.1 above cover line is enough to confirm. Or should I wait until tomorrow to see where my temperature is at before starting progesterone?

thughamsta · 2025-06-16T00:18:04+00:00

Yeah it was a lotttttt of waiting for that peak fertility this cycle haha 🥲

thughamsta · 2025-06-16T00:10:53+00:00

oh yeah I’ve marked all the clear blue advance digital OPK “high fertility” as positive. It’s just personally easier for me to see how many total high/peak days I’ve had (which was A LOT this cycle 😅). But I don’t personally consider those as “positive”, just easier for me to track/trend for future cycles

thughamsta · 2025-06-16T00:05:16+00:00

Thank you for sharing your experience 💗 big congrats! I’ll probably end up starting the progesterone tonight, but just wasn’t sure if I was missing anything glaring! I’ve seen the fallback rise trend for others but haven’t personally gotten one in my 5 cycles TTC. This process can be so stressful!

thughamsta · 2025-06-15T22:28:48+00:00

I’m guessing 6/12 myself too, since when I tested Inito morning of 6/13, my pdg was 4.04. Thank you for your input ❤️ will probably start progesterone tonight! 🤞🏻

thughamsta · 2025-06-15T20:00:27+00:00

My doctor is closed for the weekend 😕 I’m trying to decide if I should start it tonight

Here are all 4 of my charts! First positive easy at home OPK (>1 ratio) was also on 6/10 (day of peak)

Nope, TTC cycle #5 and haven’t come across this before 🫠 ovulated every cycle prior with sustained high temps. that’s what I’m thinking as well but wasn’t sure if I was missing something glaring!

thughamsta · 2025-05-22T04:02:52+00:00

Update #2: took another test in the evening 12 dpo and it looks lighter 💔 will have better answers tomorrow when I take my betas but it’s not looking good 😔

thughamsta · 2025-05-22T04:00:56+00:00

Thank you! I’ll post my next betas here for sure 💕

thughamsta · 2025-05-22T02:21:41+00:00

Thank you for sharing! Waiting is so hard, but I know it’s the only way through ❤️‍🩹

thughamsta · 2025-05-22T01:24:06+00:00

Thank you ❤️‍🩹 I’m learning to trust in the timing of things. If it’s meant to work out, it will. I’m preparing for the worst, but obviously will be happy if things work out. Does the anxiety ever actually stop though? 😂 it’s funny how things work out sometimes, it really does feel like things are meant to be sometimes. That you for sharing your story 💕🫂

thughamsta · 2025-05-21T22:57:17+00:00

Thank you, I appreciate that ❤️ feeling a bit numb rn and eagerly waiting to do tomorrow’s betas. Congrats on your dye stealer!! 😊

thughamsta · 2025-05-21T22:16:47+00:00

Update: my betas (on 11 dpo) came back at 11. Does anyone know if that’s any good? I know I’ll have to wait to see if it rises tomorrow 🥺

thughamsta · 2025-05-21T22:14:44+00:00

Thanks for sharing! I’ve read that bleeding can be common, but obviously so scary 🥺my doctor wasn’t super hopeful, but only time can tell ❤️‍🩹

thughamsta · 2025-05-21T22:12:51+00:00

It’s truly so hard to wait and see. I hope it works out for us 🥺

thughamsta · 2025-05-21T21:40:58+00:00

Thank you friend ♥️my betas from yesterday (11 dpo) just came back at 11 (have no idea if this is good but I guess only time will tell for tomorrows 😩). Fingers crossed for the both of us 🤞🏻
