Re: TWW Friday 9/7
CD/DPO: 23/9
Timing: -1,0
Typical LP length: 15
Testing: I tested this morning because I’m a dummy. I was awake at 5am when DH got up so I thought what the heck. BFN. I will hold off to test again until Sunday like I originally should have.
R/R: I haven’t been sleeping well and I am not sure why. I tried some baths with magnesium salt and feel zero difference.
CS/Q: I plugged my numbers into FF instead of a kindara. It put my O date ahead by one day and lowered my coverline. I also plugged in a few other charts. I haven’t liked using FF in the past, but maybe I didn’t give it a good chance.
Month/Cycle: 4/4
CS/Q: FF still doesn't like DPO5's temp, so I'm leaving it discarded for now. It keeps taking my CHs away when I put it in. :ne:neutral:
@marebear15 FF still doesnt like my temp from 2DPO either. I think FF should go home this month... It seems drunk
CD/DPO: 18/4
Timing: -5,-4,-3
Typical LP length: 12-14
Testing: WFAF
R/R: Got my 3 F's ready for the weekend! Football, fun and FOOD!
CS/Q: nothing out of the normal on this chart except for 2dpo temp and being discarded.
CD/DPO: CD23 / 8DPO
Timing: -2, -1, 0, +1
Typical LP length: 14-15 days
Testing: I tested this morning but it wasn't exactly with FMU. I woke up early because I had to pee really bad but my H was in the bathroom and I didn't want to take all my testing stuff (cup, Wondfo) and have H ask me questions. So I peed. Had to pee again 30 mins later, I tested this time and it was a BFN. No big deal. It's still super early. I wasn't supposed to test before Sunday anyway
R/R: I got the Wondfo HPTs for free because the Amazon vendor messed up my order.
CS/Q: Chart in spoiler
10/2018: MFI (2 SA under 9 million/ml)
11/2018: HSG shows right Fallopian tube slightly damaged
1/2019: Husband diagnosed with grade 3 varicocele
4/05/2019: varicocele repair surgery
6/13/2019: BFP!!! EDD: 2/22/2020
7/18/2019: Total Motile Count at 3 months post surgery = 51 millions!! (number must be >20 millions to conceive naturally).
TTC #2
9/07/2021: BFP - CP: 9/10/2021
10/07/2021: BFP - CP: 10/23/2021
12/23/2021: BFP! EDD: 08/31/2022
@klmcguire What is your fave football team and food? Man I could go for some beer cheese dip right now.
@marebear15 Your timing looks spot on with FF. I bet you are glad the wedding is over. Weddings can be so strmuch awful when you are in them as opposed to just going as a guest.
I am an Auburn Fan... I cheer for Bama when we aren't playing each other, but I am mainly here for the food and beer!
This weekend I am doing wings, spinach dip with pita chips and some smoked sausage.
CD/DPO: CD 21, 9 DPO (I think)
Timing: I got ewcm super early on which was strange, so I think we timed it well. Stupid of me, but I didn’t take OPKs during that time, I only took them when my app said I was supposed to ovulate and they were negative.
Typical LP length: 13
Testing: I no longer test until day 40 ever since my chemical.
R/R: If it doesn’t happen this month, fingers xd that our vacation next month will help out.
CS/Q: Really sore bbs, but I know that means nothing for me
CD/DPO: 17/1
Timing: -4,-2,-1,1
Typical LP length: 13
Testing: I’ll wait until late weekend - maybe Sunday? I usually start to spot Monday/Tuesday before AF shows up. If I can hold off until we go away the following weekend that’d be nice but unlikely.
R/R: I’ve been tracking my cycle for about a year using an app called Clue but never did my BBT. Turns out my ovulation pain occurs a day prior to ovulation at least that’s what my temp indicates. So I’m kind of regretting not getting another BD in on O day but Whatever. Rave: last night my DH felt my head and said “you better take your temperature, it feels like to have a fever” so I did (no fever). Turns out he interpreted me explaining the importance of a sustained temperature spike after ovulation as it being a good thing if I had a fever. Bless him. Seriously. He was so excited that it would be an indicator of conception.....
CS/Q:
@julfiastro temp spike can happen up to several days after ovulation in some women, but what it can tell you from a full chart is that you did ovulate, if you are sustaining a temp and approximately when your most fertile days are. The cramping pain can sometimes indicate ovulation is occurring but could also be the fallopian tubes after ovulation. Are you tracking CM (cervical mucus) too? That would be a pretty pertinent puzzle picture because in most women you experience super fertile eggwhite-like mucus in the days leading up to ovulation, then after ovulation the mucus dries up quickly, often returning to creamy, sticky, lotiony in small amounts. The eggwhite mucus is optimal for both transporting and providing energy/nourishment for sperm as they make their journey and can keep them alive for several days while they travel to the egg. So if you see that mucus start up, it's usually a good indicator to BD/HIO.
Thanks for the info. Just thought it was sweet that DH was trying to do his part (outside of the obvious contributions)
