Its my first time posting in the parenting section! Me and hubsy got married recently and we have just started TTC so were very excited!
I started taking pregnacare conception and charting. I dont want to get too obsessed with it just yet as its early days but I think the charting will help me understand my cycles if anything and the tablets have some good vitamins so win win!
Does anybody have any ideas of were in my cycle I could be right now from looking at my chart attached? Have I passed OV or is it coming up?
Thank you ladies and good luck to you all currently TTC
the only thing i know is start trying on the 9th day of your periods tilll the 19th day and every alternate day .... counting ur first day of periods as day 1 .... forget about ovulation dates
i got pregnent the third month of trying in first 2 months i was only aware of ovulation stuff .... it wasnt successfull as i was more stressed out in my ovulation dates .... the month i got to know this formula i got preg straight away
^ not always true :) some women ovulate a lot later than they think... once one starts charting, they realise their bodies are working a lot different to what they thought
distinctiveflair, im no expert with charts, but i have started charting cus we're trying to have our second... looking at ur chart, theres not enough data to indicate whether you have ovulated.... if you notice ur temp rise, and stay up 3 days consecatively, you may have ovulated... if your charting, you can also use OPKs which will tell you when you;re about the ovulate... using the chart, will tell you, that you have already ovulated... if you use them in conjunction, you may have a better idea..
having said all of that, you may have several patches of temp spikes... but if you monitor your CM, as well as use OPKs to detect the LH surge, and record temps... you''ll get an even better idea..
some women, only use OPKs... cus this tells them when they are about to surge... Others temp till they know they ovulated and stop temping after that..
Like sadzz said, there is not enough data to suggest if you have ovulated or not. You need to take your temp at the same time each morning for a full cycle.
