[jaydensmumzy]

Hi there :wave:,

I know i am being extemelly impatient!! But can someone please have a look at my chart and give me any ideas as to if it is good or bad??:confused: This is my first month of charting my temp and Im due for AF in next couple of days. http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/23f5d4

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!:yes:

Thanks!!

Just an update..............I just had a tiny bit of spotting, plus did 2 ebay cheapie preg tests - one was very very faint positive and the second one was a negative?!!! WTF??!!! Any ideas??

Hi Jaydensmummy,

I too am new to charting. From what i can see, it would help if you had CM and CP signs to help determine O a bit better.

Heres my chart for comparison.

Sorry i couldnt be of more help. Maybe some of the other ladies can help you.

Hi,
Basically it's not possible to tell from a chart whether your not your pregnant until u've gone past ur LP and ur temp has remained high (which is pretty obvious cause it means ur AF is late as well :laughing:)... Some charts will be triphasic, meaning ur temps go up a notch again once implantation occurs, but this can also happen to women who haven't conceived, so not overly reliable... cervix position and CM are also different between women and there isn't a tell tale pattern that means u are UTD. The idea behind charting is getting to know whats normal for u, such as spotting, cramping breast tenderness etc, and knowing when these things occur normally will help u identify when things are different to normal.

BUT in saying that,u got a positive HPT this morning which is a pretty good sign! I would def test again in the morning!!!!! The second may have been negative as it may have been a different brand and had different sensitivity or ur pee may have been more diluted the second time... Provided that the line came up in the correct amount of time (evap lines can occur outside of this period of time and evap lines are not positive results) then congratulations may be in order...

Do you normally spot? Implantation spotting can occur around now

Thanks for your replies girls. Oooo :fingerscrossed: i so hope it is a positive!! we have been trying for a very long time:no:.

The tests I did were both the same brand - ebay cheapies, which i suppose is another question in itself - are these accurate and reliable?? I went out and brought a pregnosis clear test but that one came up negative (tested in the arvo so maybe pee too diluted?? - wishful thinking!!)

I do normally spot but this was extemelly light and i have also been getting weird light cramps the last two days so has me wondering:confused:. I am too scared to get excited yet coz every other month turned out in tears:crying:. Guess I will just have to hang out another couple of days and if my AF doesnt arrive test again.

Goodluck :hugs:, I hope its a bfp for you! Let us know how you go testing with FMU :babydust2::fingerscrossed:

[jaydensmumzy]

Another BFN :bfn:this morning and also some more spotting so tipping that AF is on its way :crying:

Oh well guess will have to wait and see wat the FS test results are and go from there:hissy:

[jaydensmumzy]

Ok now im getting confused :confused:!! I still havent got AF and have been spotting for 3 days now (only ever spot the day b4 AF arrives) and its brown with really dark almost black small clots and a little pink?!! mine is normally always pink and red.......:hair:

[Craftymum]

Oh honey, hang in there.... fingers crossed its implantation for you.

If what you are experiencing is different to what you normally get there is still hope.

Is your temp still up??

Goodluck with your appt on Wednesday! We will have to confer notes afterwards considering we both ahve our appts with teh same FS same day lol...

Thanks Sweety :hugs:,

I so hope your right and its implantation :fingerscrossed:!! It is so out of the ordinary for me very strange, thats why im so confused!! still only getting brown blood and like stringy small brown bits (sorry for tmi!!). Although my temp has started to go back down:confused: (check out my chart http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/23f5d4) but i have been sick with the flu and have been getting fever and hot/cold flushes so i suppose that would stuff up my charting??

I am just too scared to "hope" as it makes it so much worse when/if AF does show up:crying:.

How are you anyway?? I see you cant keep away from bubhub!! For someone who is supposed to be taking time out i notice your on here ALOT :shame::laughing:!! Hope you are well and yes we will compare note after wednesday!! Speak soon xoxo

[Craftymum]

LOL yeah I know I'm still floating around here a bit :laughing: cant keep away!

Yeah the cold might of been giving you some higher temps than usual. Bummer about the temp drop today too, fingers crossed she stays away for you :hugs:
