BBT graphs causing concern

Me and my fiancé want to start TTC our second baby after our wedding in September. I am still breastfeeding our 16 month old son and sleep is still disrupted. My past three cycles have all been 26-27 days long. For the past two cycles I’ve used Natural Cycles to track ovulation using bbt (with the natural cycles band). And each time it has confirmed ovulation around cycle day 19-22. I feel like I’m ovulating on day 14 due to an increase in sex drive and egg white mucus around then. But if the algorithm is correct then I am having a very short luteal phase which makes me worry about it limiting our chance of conceiving.

Confused!

last few days I’ve felt off, my Flo app said ovulation was 5 days ago and I’ve had horrendous insomnia last 2 nights, mild lower back ache, feeling sicky,
Headaches and quick crampings. Not a clue if I’m just overthinking or what!
These symptoms were what had me pregnant with my first baby and we’re trying for number 2…
Could this just be late ovulation? Or could this be something!

Im an idiot and somebody needs to stop me please

Ladies, I’m 4 days past ovulation and like a fool I’ve been testing already. Of course there’s no line and it made me sad. I’ve definitely had the eye lines too pretending to myself that there’s something there. But really I’ve just made myself cross eyed.

I have a little girl already and I did the same crazy behaviour of testing way too early and then getting upset. I need to stop this crazy behaviour. I forgot how hard the TWW is.

Pregnant at 3 months PP ?😬

First off; I know what unprotected sex leads too. I’m a mum of 3.

I had unprotected sex last weekend (early hours of Sunday morning 🫣)
It was stupid, I’m a single parent with no dad on the scene and an old friend come over for a catch up and one thing led to another..
obviously being very freshly postpartum I’m quite erm, fertile shall we say 🫣😅

I’ve had 2 periods since having baby and last one I believe was very beginning of may. I have PCOS so they’re a bit all over the place usually and just having a baby doesn’t help either.
But, I’ve had some quite mild cramping and an increase in white (I hate this word with a passion) discharge.

I know it’s too early to test right now but when should I be testing?
According to my Flo app I should have ovulated on 10th June. 3 days after I danced with the devil.

We listen and we don’t judge so if that’s what you wanna do, kindly go elsewhere.

Thanks!!!

Did I not ovulate? TTC

Hey there! This is my 2nd cycle after my first miscarriage. Had my cycle June 1st and My app said I should be at peak ovulation today but it seems to be getting lighter, does that mean I did not ovulate? Or maybe I am ovulating later In the month? Trying not to get discouraged 🫤 thanks for your help ❤️

6dpo or 7dpo

I’ve noticed my cm is slightly sticky but in colour wise looks creamier. I thought you dried up after ovulation.

Ttc

So for the past year I haven’t been on any contraception, however the past 4 months I’ve been tracking my ovulation and nothings happened as of yet… When I was younger I got told I had pcos, I was never put on anything but assume that’s because of my age back then. I had my daughter in 2022 and I never tracked my ovulation, it just happened and came as a surprise. I don’t know if to book a doctors appointment or if they won’t even see me for it? Any idea on what to do?

Ovulated?

When would you say I ovulated based on these tests? I don’t understand why they have been high for such a long time?

Missing a day throughout fertile days

My ovulation was yesterday. We had sex this day and the days before. I have work today til 10.30 and won't be home and settled till 11pm. Would this matter about being so late? Or even if we miss this day? I don't like to pressure my husband and don't tell him the days we need to BD so has to come naturally 🤣 tia

Ovulation

So my partner and I are planning on having a child. He’s very keen and I already have one. We started trying last month but haven’t been successful yet. I’m tracking my ovulation. Says tomorrow I ovulate. We are very sexually active as a couple but he’s struggles to finish when he knows I’m in green days. He says it’s that the added pressure of knowing he needs to finish makes it difficult for him. Has anyone else experienced this? Please comment opinions…

Egg white discharge

If im getting clear egg white discharge does that mean i am currently ovulating or ovulation is coming? It only started this morning. Im also getting a little cramp on my right side abdomen. Would this be ovulation cramps? We BD last night at around 1am and my husband and I are working today until around 11pm on different shifts. Could we miss our window? Tia

Should I be worried about secondary infertility?

Just posting this here to see if anyone else is in the same boat or can offer any advice. My partner and I plan on starting TTC baby number 2 in the next few months. My cycles have been more irregular since having my first, they now range from 27-37 days. I’ve also been taking ovulation tests and they are always coming back negative despite having physical symptoms of ovulation. I’m really starting to get in my head about it and worrying I’m not ovulating or there’s something wrong etc. Can anyone offer any advice?

Endometrial biopsy and hormone profile blood test

Can anyone tell me if endometrial biopsy is cycle performed. I was asked by the clinic to call on day 1 of my next cycle and thought I would need to come into clinic this week for my hormone profile and then again 21 days after for hysteroscopy and endometrial biopsy. I called the clinic today as I came on my period on Sunday and she’s given me Friday 5th June. Why would I be asked to call at my next cycle if timing didn’t matter? Can anyone shed someone light on their experience.
