I asked a temping question last time there was one of these, but I still have another! I'm definitely over thinking this whole process. This morning, my husband woke me up to tell me goodbye. I was awake less than a minute, but I didn't temp then. I woke up a little later and temped. Could waking up, but not getting up and moving around, just waking up, mess with my temps?

I guess it's possible that it slightly affected your temps, but if you didn't get up to walk around and give a Shakespearean soliloquy, you're probably fine to count the temp you got.
Whoops! I should have just held my question for a minute and then I wouldn't have been that girl that starts her own thread... fail. But my chart woes bring up another question I have. How important is checking CM? I have just been doing OPKs and now temping... If I had been checking CM would my chart have been easier for FF to interpret?
Ok ive actually been wondering this for awhile...
Is it better to have sex in the morning or at night? Does it matter?
I have no flipping idea, so I would just say "yes." Have sex!
But honestly, I have no idea if there is some scientific rationale for one being better than the other - you should just make sure you are enjoying it!

I think it is helpful to FF to have that information (depending on the method you have it using to analyze your chart). I find it helpful because the different CMs can help give you an idea of where you are at in your cycle - but, like OPKs, it isn't a guarantee that anything has actually happened. But it's another piece of the puzzle.

The more information you have, the easier it is to interpret normally. You can get fertile CM throughout your cycle, but it can be a good clue that you're in your FW. You don't have to check internally if you're not comfortable with it but I would try to get into the habit of charting it in case you end up having another cycle.

You wanna come to Sonic with me then? I plan to eat a hot dog. I'll even splurge and get you a limeade. Ya?
You really know how to spoil a girl! I am so there.
I'll play. I'm looking for a chart stalk of last month, I put my CD1 as June 12. I'm still BFing my son and hadn't had a period since July 2012 so I just picked June 12 as CD1 so I could start charting. Otherwise FF wouldn't let me see my chart because I was on like CD300+ or something. Anyway I got CH on CD25 and felt O pain on CD28. I'm still not convinced I O'd. What do you think? I have a lot of open circles because DS wakes up anytime between 5-7 and doesn't always STTN. I had spotting once on CD33 and then very VERY light flow for 2 days and another day of spotting. So I'm assuming I did O. I just hope I'm Oing and my cycles get normal again without having to wean DS because I'm not ready to do that yet.
A little back story, I had DS in March 2012. I had 2 full heavy periods, 1 at 3 months PP and 1 at 4 months PP (June and July 2012) when my supply was very low. Once I started taking domperidone and my supply picked up my period went away for almost another year until I had that light flow/spotting ealier this month.
Anyway I'm rambling and this is way longer than I wanted it to be, sorry.

Well damn, my husband and I reenacted the final scene in Romeo and Juliet. Discard this temp! Just kidding. Thank you for answering. I knew I was way over-thinking it, but it was an important temp!

It could, but there have been plenty of nights I woke up looked at the clock and went back to sleep and it never messed with my temps. I say you are good.

FF does best with the more information you give it. Is it necessary? No, but it will certainly help FF.
Stupid question: I've never used OPKs before. When should I start testing? CD 10? I guess earlier is better since I don't know what's normal?
My last 8 cycles have been 27 days long (I haven't charted a full month but I had to keep track for the last year for other medical reasons).
With 27 day cycles as your norm, CD10 is a good place to start. I usually start on CD14ish because my cycles are a little longer (30-35) although today is CD14 for me and I got a positive OPK.

I have been using ky jelly forever. We used it up until my second and last positive opk day. Did I screw up our chances this month? I totally forgot we were going to go without until that second positive opk.
KY isn't sperm friendly but I know people that have gotten KU using it. Try preseed if you're still looking for lube. Its fertility friendly. That being said, when you get a positive OPK, thats an indication that you'll O in 12-48 hours. Best to keep HIO in that time frame.

Well, both charts I see look to be annovulatory. The bonus is your always O before your period. There is no harm in temping and/or OPK use. Plenty of woman are breasting feeding and get pregnancy. GL to you!
I am coming up on 1 year TTC (Aug 4 is 1 year). Today is my annual and plan on discussing this with my OB. What should I expect? Is she supposed to refer me to an RE right away or will I go through any tests/anything with my regular OB?
That depends on both your comfort level and that of your OB. Personally, mine is very up-front with the fact that she does not have training for fertility testing and wanted it done by an RE. She was willing to order my HSG (but one of her partners did it) and a few other tests so that we'd have the results in time for my RE appointment. If you do begin testing with your OB please be sure to educate yourself on what needs to be checked and be aware that some REs prefer to repeat the tests themselves.

I started with my OB. At the time, I needed a referral to get to an RE per my insurance company. My OB did CD 3 bloodwork and a saline sonogram. She ensured that we got my DH a SA. When all of that came back normal, she referred to a RE since whatever problem was out of her league. He ran all of the tests again, and found the MFI diagnosis and later on the NK cells. So you can certainly start with your OB, but many will not recognize their limitations like mine did. If they start prescribing you drugs without monitoring or doing proper testing, ask for a referral to a RE immediately. Good luck!

More information is always better, but it's not required. Though when you start seeing fertile CM it's a great secondary way (along with OPK's) to know O might be happening soon and you should be having regular sex.
Love your pups!
Looks like I'll be starting to track CM too! The more I know the better... Thanks to all who replied.

I will play!! I am new to the world of OPKs I just ordered some off of Amazon. I think I saw on here its best to test twice? Then once I get a postive that means I should get it on? I feel like that seems fairly obvi but I just wanted to double check!!

Yes. It's better if you temp too so you can keep HIO out until you see a temp shift and get O confirmed. But if you're just using OPKs then have sex for a couple days after that positive test.

Newb here. DH and I have a DD who is 13 1/2 months. She still BFs at night before bed. We were not TTC when we conceived her, though I was charting my temp (so yes, if you have sex within a day or so of your suspected O day, you could get prego! charting is def. not 100% lol)
So my question is - what are the earliest signs of pregnancy? I have been BFing LO since day one, so Aunt Flo didn't come back until she was 10 months old... then I didn't get another cycle for 3 months (first day was july 1). DH and I are kind of TTC (would be nice to have a spring baby!) and lately I've been super tired and feeling a little bloated.
I don't want to run out and spend $20 on a pregnancy test quite yet since I haven't even missed a period yet, but I can't help but wonder. I just don't have a strong intuition this time though b/c BFing just makes fertility and cycles all screwy so I don't have a regular schedule to go off of.
Thoughts??
FWIW- I have an annual well-woman exam next week. Can they tell just from a normal exam whether or not pregnant?
How can I get the Bump to save my freaking signature??

Not a newbie, but maybe a stupid question. Does the day you get your period count towards the length of your LP?
Hypothetically say O is CD 20, and then you get your period on CD 30. So CD 30 is also CD 1, then is the LP 9 or 10 days long?

Newb here. DH and I have a DD who is 13 1/2 months. She still BFs at night before bed. We were not TTC when we conceived her, though I was charting my temp (so yes, if you have sex within a day or so of your suspected O day, you could get prego! charting is def. not 100% lol)
So my question is - what are the earliest signs of pregnancy? I have been BFing LO since day one, so Aunt Flo didn't come back until she was 10 months old... then I didn't get another cycle for 3 months (first day was july 1). DH and I are kind of TTC (would be nice to have a spring baby!) and lately I've been super tired and feeling a little bloated.
I don't want to run out and spend $20 on a pregnancy test quite yet since I haven't even missed a period yet, but I can't help but wonder. I just don't have a strong intuition this time though b/c BFing just makes fertility and cycles all screwy so I don't have a regular schedule to go off of.
Thoughts??
FWIW- I have an annual well-woman exam next week. Can they tell just from a normal exam whether or not pregnant?

Hit save 8 times in a row and shake your iPad. It worked for me.
Were you TTA and having sex within a day or so of O? I'm so confused.
