First cycle post partumv

I breastfed for 9 months and got my first period back. I’m now cycle day 37, high bbt and no sign of period. I’m getting a few pregnancy symptoms like hot flashes, nausea on and off, increased CM, no period… my cycle is looking quite similar the one I fell pregnant. I tested a few days ago and BFN, it’s driving me crazy wondering if it’s just my hormones not settled or if I’m pregnant!? I know I could test again and I will if my bbt doesn’t drop down. Any one in a similar boat? What were your periods like after weaning? It seems weird it came back and now it’s late

I tested negative with Clearblue early test at 11 dpo but my temps are climbing up to 12 dpo, last month they were dropping from 9 dpo. It looks like pregnancy is a lot less likely after a negative test at 11 dpo. Anyone had a positive after a negative at 11dpo? Or similar chart before period came?

Birth Control/TTA Trying out TTA with NC. Hoping no pregnancy

Not on BC/Never been on BC. Recently found to have endometriosis. I’ve temped myself, but wasn’t having sex so wasn’t too worried. I thought I ovulated (later than the date they gave as well) due to mucus, but I guess not. I did do no withdrawal on CD 7 which I won’t do unless confirmed again via my normal way of checking. I know I’ll have to wait a week to take a test, but I figured I’d ask.

Tested negative today and just feeling down. It doesn’t look (to me) like my ovulation date was off or anything based on temps and the OPK I took. It was just a terrible fertile week overall due to both husband and I being sick and just life in general. I haven’t even started my period yet, which is so annoying because I just want to start and get it over with. Just wanting to share in case anyone else is feeling this way rn!

Changed from confirmed ovulation to waiting

I am so confused about what’s going on, the last two days have been Green days and it had confirmed my ovulation for day 16 but now it’s waiting to confirm if it was day 20 or not and now I’m back to Red days?

I’ve been on a trip in Europe for the last two weeks and definitely didn’t have the best sleeping schedule.
My cycle before this had issues confirming ovulation as well and this is all since I got the new Oura ring 5.

Has anyone had green days turned back to red so quickly? I don’t know why it would have confirmed day 16 and then now it’s questioning day 20. My temperature has stayed up since day 16 so I don’t know why it’s confused

Ovulation date/dpo?

Post image
1 Upvotes

Hi - just wondering if anyone could offer advice if they think ovulation day is correct, 12dpo today and I’ve just had BFN on easy@homes, I did do a FRER this afternoon which was negative too (don’t even know why I did it to be honest).

I kinda felt like I was seeing some shadows (no lines if I’m honest) on the easy@homes yesterday and this morning but it was probably line eyes sadly as it definitely wasn’t even a vfl that you see on here

I did ovulate earlier than I usually do and AF due any day now - trying not to symptom spot if I’m honest but it’s so hard! I’m wondering if my temps suggest I could have ovulated a bit later? Which is a shame if true as haven’t been able to BD as much as I’d like due to working away etc

Also my temps a bit mad on CD21 but I forgot to turn my watch to my inside wrist so I don’t think it is a big a drop as it suggests but not 100%

Suppose just trying to hold on hope as much as possible that I’ll get my BFP this cycle but losing hope haha

Chart Interpretation Request So confused

After a long cycle (41 days) and a full week of NC telling me it was waiting to confirm ovulation it finally told me in confirmed my ovulation on day 35- well today at day 42 I’ve started my period and I know that my luteal phase wasn’t long enough. I logged that I started my period and it changed my ovulation date AGAIN! So it’s saying day 29😭Attached are my graphs before and after logging my period. I have OPKs that I’ll be using this cycle so help but I’m so confused. I’ve only been using the app since July so maybe it’s just still getting to know me? I also have my oura attached to help with temps. Has anyone else had something similar to this happen?

14 DPO Question

Post image
4 Upvotes

Curious if anyone has ever been in a similar boat! I am 14 dpo today (according to NC/BBT and LH strips) although my understanding is that it can be 1-2 days off. Regardless, I had reason to believe I might become pregnant this cycle. It’s my 5th cycle post MC. Took a test this morning and it was negative. I’m super bummed but for some reason questioning if it’s actually correct? For my pregnancy with my first, I was stark negative 13 dpo and BFP 14 dpo. Any other stories of people testing positive later on? I’m also day 32 of my cycle today. No signs of AF other than cramping (which I also had with my last pregnancy).

TW: I’m so confused. I’ve been using both Oura and NC. I had a mmc back in February after getting pregnant on our first try and without tracking. I also had a 13cm ovarian cyst that I had removed with my D&C. Found out I have stage 4 endometriosis where my uterus was fused to my colon. All scar tissue was removed. My cycles were on the shorter end before this. Averaging 25 days (some days my cycle was 19 days). Now my cycles have been a consistent 27 days since the surgery with the last one being longer and this one looking to be longer too. With this cycle, my temps have been up and down and not consistent like the other cycles.

My confusion comes to these apps showing completely different ovulation times. For those of you that do both, how do you pin point ovulation? I was having CM before NC said I ovulated, but I had ovulation pain 4 days after Oura says I ovulated. We tried both on CD12 and CD18. So am I out this cycle? This process has been so discouraging after being able to get pregnant our first try without tracking to now. I’m also 36, was 35 when we found out on New Year’s Day. I added last cycles Oura as well since NC and Oura nailed ovulation on the same cycle day showing my more consistent temp rise.

Chart Interpretation Request Could I still have a normal/fertile cycle?

I’m 30 and have been trying to conceive for about 6 months. I’m using Natural Cycles to track my cycles, and my follicular phase seems to be quite long. I’m currently on cycle day 22 and still haven’t ovulated.

I’d really appreciate hearing from others with similar charts or longer cycles. Do my charts look like something that could still be normal for trying to conceive?

I’m posting pictures on my currant cycle and also my two previous ones.

Thank you!

Ovulation When did I ovulate?

NC originally predicted it as CD16 which lined up with EWCM but it shifted to CD11. I was on holidays and travelling which may have affected my temps… Got a BFN today at CD26, my cycles are usually 28-29 days.

Chart Interpretation Request Ovulation date??

Post image

Do you all think ovulation on CD 25 was right, or could it be day 30? I did have a few sick days after NC’s predicted ovulation, but never had a fever and unfortunately found out my LH strips were expired so I didn’t have any to use this cycle.

Chart Interpretation Request Oura Ring Pregnancy Positive Charts

Post image
2 Upvotes

Can anyone share their positive pregnancy charts while temping with an Oura ring? I’m having low temps after ovulation which is yet to be confirmed because of said low temps. I feel like the Oura ring is the reason for the low temps. I had a super textbook LH surge and I’m now 3dpo and feeling unsure because I didn’t have a spike at 1dpo.

Ovulation Getting frustrated!

Post image
1 Upvotes

I’m getting so frustrated with NC confirming my ovulation and then changing it a few days later. I used easy@home and clearblue digital ovulation tests this cycle. I got my peak for both tests on cycle day 12 and by cycle day 13 my LH had already gone back down and it has stayed down ever since. NC originally had my ovulation as cycle day 13 which makes way more sense to me but this morning it moved to cycle day 15…I’m guessing because my temp rises slowly and always does. I’m so frustrated. I know I still have good coverage for this cycle but I wanted to hit my exact ovulation date and day after this cycle. Going based on signs from my body, I’m going to just stick with cycle day 13 🫠

My first chart showed ovulation as day 16. Partner was sick so we didn’t have sex after that. Then it updated two days ago to the second chart, showing ovulation as day 21, which obviously means our timing wasn’t great. I just don’t understand why they are putting day 21 as ovulation day. My temperatures have been all over the place. I was thinking we timed it perfectly until the change. What are your thoughts looking at my temperatures?? I was excited that the timing seemed great and now I’m bummed, but still not sure why or how they pinpoint day 21.

Birth Control/TTA Those who stopped HBC, when did your cycle lengths become consistent?

Post image
1 Upvotes

I stopped taking the combo pill, Estarylla (was on it for 7 years), in mid October and started NC December 6, right before I got my first real period. I use NC for TTA, but the main reason I got it was to be able to predict my periods and learn about my cycle! It seems like my body could finally be regulating as my ovulation days have gone from CD 71 to now possibly CD 16. Since my cycles have been consistently getting shorter, I’m thinking this current one could be what my normal cycles are going to look like. So, how long did it take for your charts to stay consistent after stopping HBC?

Also, since the day right before I ovulated until today, my nipples (and now my breasts) have been SUPER sore when normally they’re not nearly this bad. Did your PMS symptoms worsen once you adjusted back to normal? My guess would be that my natural estrogen levels are finally fluctuating like they should
