Trying to Get Pregnant

You were right...

I'm not going to lie. I thought charting was nuts. I've been lurking for awhile trying to find answers to my stupid questions before actually asking them. Andy yes I LWI (lurked while intoxicated). All answers seemed to go the general, "are you charting? How can you know if your not charting?" route much to my annoyance. Well, 33 days into a cycle and three BFNs later I started temping--just to see. It couldn't hurt ;). Low and behold I didn't O until day 36 with a huge temperature shift on day 37...you were all right.  So I'm outing myself in thanks to all the snark-casm towards non-charters which I've come to love. It helps keep the ttc crazy in me in-check. cheers. 

Re: You were right...

  • I'd like to get this framed.

    Seriously though. While everyone may not chart, it's good not only for self ute-tilization (groan)  - but really the only vehicle we have to help each other past guessing.

    Welcome and GL. I only LWI when I am too drunk to BWI.

  • PS: It's very early to tell anything about your o' with so few temps. Keep it up.
  • wow, you started temping at day 33 and could tell you O'd at day 36?!  man, i don't think i would have been able to tell that during my first month (or 2 or 3) of charting.

    charting does help though!  good luck!

    Wait, so you're on day 37 now?  And you started at 33?  I hate to say it, but there's still a chance that you haven't ovulated.  Look at my previous chart for an example of what your temps look like when you're not ovulating.  I started charting after missing my period for six weeks, so that cycle was actually something like 100 days before provera brought it to an end.

    You need to chart longer to see an overall pattern.  Five days isn't enough to tell you anything, but keeping it up over time will provide you with invaluable information.

    I am fully aware (now) that it could still be an anovulatory cycle but my temps have been consistantly up for a few days. No I'm not on day 37 today.  And my CM was pretty indicitive of the O-deal goin down. I'm three cycles off BCP.  but the last two were pretty normal. so Its all messed up. I'm not holding my breath on any of it. watch and learn right?
