I know I ovulated 9/26 (lh and bbt tracking) and we timed intercourse perfectly this cycle. i’m really sad to see this negative today, i’ve been crying all morning. my temp is still elevated, my resting HR is also elevated and has been for a couple days now (per my oura ring), super bloated , intermittent cramps, vivid dreams and have a sore throat. should I count myself out this cycle or still a chance I test positive in the upcoming days? thanks girls

CD20-21, or did I miss another LH surge later on CD20 and ovulate CD23?

I’m posting this in hopes of giving someone more hope about continuing to keep trying!

My husband and I started trying to conceive in September of 2024. After six months we decided to go to a fertility clinic since we weren’t getting results. They did blood work and checked my husband’s semen. After we got confirmation that I have lean PCOS (which I already figured, growing up I didn’t have regular periods and I was quite overweight before I met my husband and lost 80lbs). After losing the weight, my periods became quite regular with being between 28-35 day cycles. We weren’t gutted, but just knew that I would have to track with LH strips to catch my surge. I became obsessed with tracking and my bbt. Mind you, the fertility clinic wanted us to do IVF right away, without really checking what was wrong.

Anyway, we continued and with that still no results with no pregnancies. When we got my husband’s semen analysis back, it was said that he had low volume but good mobility. The doctor told us, there’s no way to conceive naturally and we would need to do IVF. I even asked for an IUI but the doctor said there was no point if I wanted a baby. I did do an HSG to make sure my tubes were open and I went for my first one. Hurt like a b***** and because of that, they couldn’t check one tube. It didn’t matter, because next cycle of September/October 2025 (cycle went between the two months) I became pregnant and we were so excited. 5 weeks later tho I had a chemical and that’s when we were gutted. The fertility clinic told us it wasn’t a real pregnancy and I’ll get my period. I asked them to send me for an HSG again, since we weren’t able to check both tubes. I went ahead and got it done and again, the very next cycle of November 2025, I had fallen pregnant and I am currently snuggling my 8-week-old baby with a contact nap!!

I am just posting this because, doctors don’t know everything and some doctors push you into things just to play with emotions!!! If you’re reading this, please never give up. I always had hope we would fall pregnant naturally and now I know that doctor just wanted us to pay for having a child. I know for some people that’s the case, but for many it’s not needed either. Please have faith that it will happen for you. Even with PCOS and low sperm count, anything is absolutely possible 🤍🤍🤍

I know it took us over a little a year to conceive & for others it has been much longer that, but I just really hope this gives some type of light into someone struggling with trying to conceive!

ok so I’m about 12-13 DPO with a possible implantation dip and a fairly clear triphasic shift. I have no other symptoms other than an extremely fleeting second of nausea in the AM today And just feeling “off” or “weird” yesterday and today.

im hitting my limit of freaking out and I’m wondering if at this point taking a clearblue test in the afternoon would be a stupid idea. I know I know, morning pee. I know I know, 14 DPO. because of meds I’m on it’ll either be now (+the next couple days if negative now)— or else tomorrow morning at 13dpo. if it’s positive now I’ll be so glad I tested early. if it’s negative it will probably spark some anxiety or sadness.

someone talk me down, or else hold my hand as I go off the edge.

any afternoon testers Out there?

edit to add: that I had one other symptom which is getting so hot/cold at night and sweating to the point of sheets being damp, which isn't a common luteal symptom for me but also my cycles are all over the place.

I thought I was out for this cycle when my Frer was negative on Tuesday (13 dpo, about 4 dpi according to ff). However my temperature has stayed steady, and I started feeling nauseous last night/this morning.

This is my first cycle after a chemical pregnancy in August, so I might be reading into this too much. Last cycle at 13 dpo/6dpi my free was a squinter positive, but the next day was completely blank when I tried again (same circumstances, first morning pee with no water before bed). Then unfortunately I went on a trip and couldn't test again till I got home. I was throwing up most nights on this trip... when I tested 20dpo frer was positive.

I currently don't have any more frer at home, and am ONCE AGAIN flying out tomorrow for a few days for a wedding. Is it worth buying another one at this point? Am I still in the running for this cycle?

Am I out? Two dips below the luteal line within three days. Yesterday I was awake for 20 min scrolling on my phone before taking my temperature

I was thinking I was going to start my period today, randomly decided to take a test and these are my results! Can someone tell me what the actual heck is going on?! 😂 I BD this morning, yesterday, and day before.

First photo is this current cycle. Second photo is last cycle where I ovulated on CD21. I thought, maybe that was a fluke. But, now my temps are totally plateaued and I’m worried I’m going to ovulate again “late” which will put my luteal phase again at 8ish days. I am a year and a half postpartum. I looked back on my old cycles and I’d ovulate earlier, 15/16CD or so. Has anyone else experienced this?

Like the title says.. confused about when I actually ovulated.

I noticed my cervical mucus becoming more wet and abundant earlier than normal this cycle and started taking OPK’s a few days earlier than typical because of that. I’m usually an ovulation on CD 13-14 person.

And my hunches were right on the early intuition because I got a clear as day positive opk on the afternoon of CD 10! (Never had one that early before). It stayed positive for about half of CD 11.

Anyways. Can anyone tell me when they think I may have ovulated based on all my data I’ve logged!?

The temp rise delay compared to the opks is confusing me!!!

My guess was cd 11… but the temps I’m not sure confirm that.

All negative tests so far 🫩

I know a negative at 14dpo is pretty definitive but this temp jump threw me off as typically my temps drop by now. Has this happened to anyone?

I have PCOS so have experienced anovulary cycles for years. This time cycle I got a very good positive opk which I almost never get but my bbt didn't reflect ovulation.

Do you think there is a chance I could have ovulated?

Like the title says, first time charting. Is it possible I ovulated later than cd16?

Has anyone else had temperatures like this after ovulation? Should I be concerned they’re not getting higher?

I am mostly 24 to 27 day cycle. This month I started BBT charting and I am very new to this. I am lot more confused here. Can someone help me interpret this chart? Have I ovulated or not yet ovulated?

Should I be worried about my chart trending downward. It’s not a deep spike like what happens when AF comes but it does seem low though above coverline. Google says it’s normal to have an estrogen surge that lowers temp but as long as it’s above coverline my body is still doing what it should. What are your thoughts

That would have been 6DPO I believe on that Saturday dip.

I've been feeling really confused by my current cycle. It's my second cycle after an MMC back in mid July. I think my ovulation is delayed since my last period started 9/15.

I finally got a positve OPK two days ago, none yesterday, and then another positive one today. My CM has not been very consistent, but I had EWCM two days ago and now I do not. I know I haven't ovulated because of BBT, but I guess I'm wondering if it makes sense for me to expect ovulation tomorrow based on the OPK today? Or should I consider that I may have ovulated yesterday since my temp rose today?

Hi all, this is my first time using FF and my first month TTC. Of course, for some reason, my temps went all mad this month.

This is my Sep chart, and I've included Aug and Jul for reference.

I use Oura for temp tracking and it keeps changing my Ovulation day, going back and forth between the 23rd-26th. I personally think I O-d on the 23rd-24th purely due to symptoms, but that would make my 12 DPO temp quite high still. Also not entirely sure why Sep doesn't have a cover line.

What do we think?

(Apologies for all the symptoms tracking in Sep, I just wanted a baseline for future months)

This is my 2nd cycle off birth control so I expected my cycles to be a little wonky for a while, but last cycle, my temps were exactly as I’d expect them to be, had a temp rise right after positive LH test and then dropping back down right before my period. So this cycle, I started LH testing the day after my period ended and was surprised to see a dark positive. I know LH surges can happen outside of ovulation, but my temps did start coming up right after. However, now they’re dropping back down, so has anyone had this happen? Is it possible it was a false surge and I should be looking out for a second one? Or could I have ovulated and am now having a secondary surge of estrogen? So confused😭
