TTC a Rainbow Sibling Check-in

sergeantb44 · March 2014

Thank you for the check in, I am finally on my PC so it is a bit easier to post.

My name is Jamie I am 29 my SO is 38. He has 3 children from a previous marriage.Noah 11, Owen 9, and Natalie 7. We found out with a HPT on 12/26 after I hadn't been feeling well. At my first appt we had no heartbeat. I had a d/c 1/21. We have been cleared to TTC now.

My first cycle after MC was 32 days. I started temping and charting because I am inpatient and waiting. I am a nurse so the science behind this is somewhat fascinating for me. My temps spiked a bit on CD 10 but I got = OPK up until CD 14 when I had +OPK. My schedule is kind of crazy I am a nurse and I rotate between days and nights so my times are not the best (and I am not trying to be OCD) about the whole thing.

FF naturally had given me an O date but took it back with the =OPK. My temps are still a bit higher than they were prior to the +OPK but it still has not given me an O date. The calendar is now predicting CD 19 will be my O date. I am already hating the 2WW.

I would simply link my chart but I have no clue how.

GTKY: I was born and raised in Northeast Ohio. The only time I have left was for the military. It seems that there are a few of us from the area. I PM some of you but please feel free to contact me if you would like GTG.

Guess who got crosshairs yesterday? [FF said 5dpo, but I'm still not convinced. :P Especially since they got moved ahead a day with today's temp.] <--- strike that. 6dpo. I'm blaming not having a 2nd cup of coffee and DST for this.

@rmpar29 gets a gold star for her optimism and chart reading skillz.

YAY! I'm glad that you finally got crosshairs! Hmmm...I would say either CD16 or CD18 could be your O date. I'm glad it's not anovulatory though!

@sergeantb44 - Welcome to the check-in. I'm sorry that you are having problems charting. At the top of your Home page in FF it says Share This Page. Click on that and then copy the Simple Link. Then paste it in your message here. Without seeing it it's kind of hard to interpret what you are saying.

Yep, I can see it. Can you tell me why the open circles the last two days?

I'm not convinced you've ovulated yet. What is your OPK like today? Any EWCM?

sergeantb44 · March 2014

Opk is still pos.. no ewcm that i have even noticed at all. Open circles i think simply because i am bad about setting an alarm clock to temp at the same time daily.

Did your doctor track your betas to 0? It's possible it's just a wonky cycle and your body's trying to O but hasn't been able to yet. Usually, you get a negative in between surges though. What OPKs are you using and what time of day?

Neary2011 · March 2014

Morning Everyone! I hope that everyone is doing well, I am doing good but I am still on the bench until March 19 and hopefully my OB will give us the go ahead to try again. I am not a fan of the waiting game at all, it is soooo hard to be patient.

Have a Wonderful Day Ladies

!

We did not track my betas but d&c was 21 January. I have used both the dip sticks which have been very positive as well as the target brand that is similar to hpt..This have had faint pos lines but the insert says if it's not as dark as the control that it's negative. I have done at all times first morning void mid day and evening before bed.

rmpar29 · March 2014

@sergeantb44 - It's possible that you still have HCG in your system that's turning the OPKs positive, although I don't know you would've had one that was negative. Those can take awhile to come down. Different OPKs have different times that the urine should be collected. Most of the digital ones are FMU, while the Wondfo's and other brands are better in the late morning/early afternoon. Have you taken any in the last couple days that you didn't record on FF? Are you still getting positives?

sergeantb44 · March 2014

I took one yesterday it was still positive but lighter than it had been. I am having some increase in temps so we will see what ft gives tomorrow. I will repost my chart in a minute if I can get it to work.
