Re-Intro and chart stalk

in Trying to Get Pregnant

Hello! I'm Jessica - some of you may recognize my SN - I was active on TTGP from January - June of this year. DH and I started TTC #1 in January, got pregnant right away and it ended in a chemical pregnancy a few days later. We tried another 5 months and were stoked when I got pregnant again in June. My EDD was March 2012...at 9 weeks, I went in for an elective ultrasound (due to my CP in Jan..just to make sure everything was on track) and there was no heartbeat. DH and I were devastated and are still healing. I've posted a little on TTCAL as well. 

We were ready to get right back to TTC and when my first period came 30 days post-m/c, I started tracking my cycles again. I'm not really glad to be back to this point, but am happy to look forward to the future.

Anyways, my chart this month is stumping me! I usually O on CD 17 - 19 and have 31 - 33 day cycles. I had a temp spike on CD 20, leading me to believe I O'd. BUT I took a OPK test last night (CD 20) and it was a clear +, confirmed by a digital OPK test. I got another + this morning.

Why aren't my OPK tests and temps lining up? I haven't gotten CH yet, so I know the best answer is to wait and see. I'm just stumped though! I take my temp at the same time each morning. CD 20 I marked sleep deprived b/c the last hour before temping I was tossing and turning.

Gosh - sorry this was so long! Thanks for the responses. :)

    I think it's looking like O on CD19 as long as the temps stay up. Do you PIAC 2x a day or only in the morning? Any chance your surge could have started in the evening?

     

    I test with OPKs twice per day. My first + was at 9pm last night, and another + with fmu today. I'll test again tonight. I'm just confused that my +OPKs came after my temp rise...

    Theres nothing wrong with 2 or even 3 days of OPK+ in a row.  You can catch yoru surge early or just have a long surge.  (My previous charts are a good example).  Stick in a few dummy temps and see if you get CH's on CD 19--I bet you will, but they might be dotted.

    Check this website for OPK FAQ.

    ETA: tracking CM will help a lot, too.

    Thanks for the advice. I had charted and used OPKs for 4 months prior to my pregnancy and always had multiple days of + OPKs. That's totally normal for me as well. I just don't get why I got the +OPKs after my temp rise.

    As far as CM....I don't have much and it's hard to tell CM from semen since we've been on a BD marathon...!
