TTC After a Loss

Chart Stalk Request + Temp Q

O wise and generous women of the board....prepare strap on your ute googles (just kidding).

But seriously, I am confused: I thought I was on track to O 6 days ago with the temp dip.  And then it kept dipping.  But then it went up.  And then it dipped again, and then it went up.  This morning it dipped, but only slightly. 

Its driving me insane.  

I'm not asking you to peer into my ute, I'm just wondering if you have an input?

Also, I've been extremely stressed recently and kind of sick (with a cold).  Any clue how that could affect the temps? 

Thank you ladies.  I hope this Tuesday is treating you well.  Hugs to those that need them.

Re: Chart Stalk Request + Temp Q

  • I'm definitely not very good at reading charts, I can barely even figure out my own. But I just have a question, are you taking your temp at the same time every morning? I was looking at your last chart and it looks like you're temps were up and down quite a bit too. Hopefully someone will come along and can actually help you.

    thanks for the input.  My first charting experience (last month) was a wreck because I wasn't taking them at the same time every monring.  But this month I am and it still has the same rollercoaster effect!

  • Doesn't look like you've O'd yet, sorry. Are you using OPKs? Are you taking your temp immediately when you wake up?

  • Stress can definitely mess with your cycle and can keep you from Oing.  Hopefully your stress levels will go down post-finals.

    Only other thought is do you sleep with your mouth open? That might throw your temps off.

  • It does not look like you O'd yet, there's no sustained rise. A dip doesn't necessarily mean anything (some cycles I have a dip with O and some I don't... some people never do.)

    Stress and illness can definitely throw off your temps and cause O to be delayed. Are you being sure to temp at the same time every morning, before you get out of bed? Just wondering, because it does seem to be jumping around a bit.

  • Thank you all for your advice.  I just got done performing a wedding (for some super deserving folks) so I'm a bit off kilter.  But I'd just like to say that I appreciate all the feed back (and I am taking temps at the same time every day, however sometimes I drink more than others).  

    I <3 all my fellow ALer.  I know we'll have ours soon.
