Intro and question

saralu82 · January 2014

Hello ladies! My name is Sara and I am 31. My dh and I have been ttc for a couple months now and just started temping this past month. We have a 2 year son and an angel baby that we lost to SIDS at 7 months. We are hoping for another little miracle in 2014! So, as I said this was the first month that I started temping and I had something unusual in my chart and was wondering if anyone else experienced this. I ovulated late... not so late... on day 19, but then 2 days before my period my temp dropped. I have the Taking Charge of Your Fertility book and looked all over for an example of this and found nothing. I did read about short luteal phase problems as I only had 7 days with higher temps over ovulation. I started temping again this month so I will wait to see if this pattern continued and I will contact my doctor if this continues to happen, but I was just wondering if anyone ever had this. TIA and have a wonderful New Years Day!

Did you come off birth control recently? Your cycles might be out of whack for a few months if you did. Either way I would continue to temp for a few months and if you notice your LP is continuously less than 10 days I would call your OB. The newbie blog at the top of the page is a great resource along with the fertility friend website.

I am so sorry for the loss of your 7 month old. Welcome to the board and good luck. Hope your stay here is short and sweet!

Thank you everyone for your quick responses! I haven't been charting on the computer so I will have to start that. My LP was only 9 days this month, so I will def keep track of that. I haven't been on birth control since ds was born 2 years ago, but I did start some new medications for Crohns disease. I thank you for your kind welcomes and look forward to learning from all of you.

That must have been very difficult to go through. Welcome to the board! I am still learning about temping so I have no advice other than to temp for a few months at least before you call your doctor that way you have clear data to show him.

Welcome! And I second what wickedsugar said. If it happens 3+ times in a row then talk to your doctor, but sometimes they just happen.

My LP has been 10 days since going off BCP. No clue what it used to be bc I never temped. Keep on tracking your cycles through temping to verify how long your LP is, like you said. And welcome!
