Good afternoon all.
I've got that stinky cold that's going round so not sure I'm making much sense, but I'll try...
Sookie, hope this is ov for you - looks like it could be! Go jump your DH!
Chrissie, I'm not sure either. Looks like FF could be right, and it's a slow rise chart... but either day, you have it pretty well covered!
ROM, glad you're feeling better. Hmm, your chart is... interesting. It's difficult to tell, because of course your 'pre-ovulation temps' for this cycle are not really pre-ovulation temps but ectopic pregnancy ones, as far as I can work out. When was your hospital appt that you found out? And do you know roughly when the ectopic pg ended? I'm just thinking that whilst that was happening, presumably there was still a certain amount of progesterone being released, which would have kept your temps up to some extent? Also the missing temps, whilst obviously understandable, don't help, cos we don't know if the CD33 temp was an anomalous spike, or if the previous week's temps were even higher... I would tentatively agree with the FF date, and FX you get AF in the next couple of days - but I'd still be cautious about BDing in case you haven't actually o'ed yet. And for once, I'll pray that if you did o then, you missed the egg!
Loola, FX for the promotion!
Chrissie and babydust, hope your absence means you're otherwise engaged
CB23 - the FRERs do have a higher rate 4 days in advance. I bought the Clear Blue earlies before, but when I saw it was only 50% accuracy I decided that they weren't worth using until Af was due, if there was only a 1 in 2 chance of getting an accurate result. Poor you though, you must be on the edge of your seat... FX for you that you get a strong line when you test!
to everyone else and my brain is now mush. If anyone wants me to stalk their charts, and give them the HUGE benefit of my wisdom let me know!
As for my chart, I'm still waiting. Temp went down today, but the spotting has completely stopped for the day. I'm hoping that my period will start properly tonight or tomorrow, otherwise I really don't know what to make of it. I had a play with my chart, and I wonder if perhaps I ov'ed on CD21, with a coverline at 36.05? If so, I'd expect AF later today or tomorrow, which would fit better with the spotting. If I ov'ed on CD24, then I'm getting weird spotting pretty early... and if I didn't ov, then maybe this cycle is still continuing which I really don't want. But right now, all I really care about is snoozing on the sofa with a hot water bottle, a blanket and an eye mask... and a big box of tissues!
