hi all, i am feeling so down and fed up this morning. i'm on my 2nd cycle of using fertility friend i didnt use it at first. this cycle it said i ovulated on cd 18 i'm on cd 30 now so that made me 12dpo. i tested this morning i know i shouldnt and i new i got the results i expected yep bfn. i thought that my af would come wednesday. but i put my high temp again today my third one. and it said it was moving my ovulating date from cd 18 to cd 27 so last friday. which makes me 3 dpo, wondered if this has ever happened to anyone else before. i am so down now as it means a long cycle which means my af arent regular again. i am so sick of charting and ttc at the moment, so fed up with it never happening for us.:cry::cry:

feeling so confused :\? and sad:cry:

Hi Hun, can you add a link to your FF page so can have a look for you?? x

I had this happen on my first chart,i'll try to post a pic of it and point out where it happened!
I'm sorry you're feeling so down,maybe you need a month or 2 break of actively ttc just to take the pressure off a little..... BD when you want/feel like it and just relax, i know it's easier said than done!
I really do know how you feel x x
((((((((hugs))))))))

Right hope this pic comes up!!
As you can see my temp fell on cd14 and then shot up so it was telling me that OV date was cd16!
However it then dropped again on cd18 and shot back up so it changed it's mind on the OV date,now saying OV on cd22..... Which worked out to be right this month as af arrived 14 days after ov!! :\)
Like a lot of ladies on here have mentioned the luteal phase (time between ov and af) is always the same and it's only the ov date that can change and as you can see i'd been bd'ing at the wrong time!!! lol
This month i will know what to look out for!
Good luck with your chart this month x ;\)

I'd say stick with this cycle and have lots of nookie x x :lol:

hi girls, i am not sure how to get my chart up here???? how did you post your chart hun.
i can't believe i have only just ovulating on cd27, that is most ppl cycle length, my cycle last month was 32 days. but i have pcos and dont even know if i am ovulating. my temp for last 2 days have been 98.17

Hi GB.....
I did a right click on chart and saved it,then uploaded it to photobucket account then copy the direct link of it,then open a reply to here then press img button then paste the link then img button again,the same as posting a regular picture.

when you in FF your home page on the left hand side click 'my account', then click on right side of the box 'home page set up', now at the top it should give you your home page web address - copy it then paste it on here. xx

I too have pcos so if your chart is saying you could have ov'd on cd27 then thats only 5 days after i did on my last cycle,so it doesn't sound too wrong to me. You may just be having a long cycle this month.
I sometimes get cycles lasting 35 to 39 days.

hope this works

i copied and pasted the address at the top then click img then copy then img on here, so why hasnt it worked

hope this works did it by coping it and then putting it on photobucket

i'm guessing that your cover line is about 97.8....
Your temp seems to have stayed below it up until 2 days before it says you've ov'd,maybe that's why it's changed.....
I mean your temp got above your cover line then dipped down then rose again and will prob stay above your coverline now until af arrives!
Hope that makes sense to you,it's my second month charting so that's how i would read your chart.
The only way you're really gonna know if it's right is counting the 14 days back from when af arrives....
Sorry if i've not been too much help x x

thanks for your help glens angel. this is my 2nd month charting but it didnt do this on my first month. i dont get it this month as my ewcm was around the first ov date i got. and this week it has just been watery ????? i am getting to the stage of giving up on charting and checking was using cbfm but that never turned to peak just high so stopped using that,. now just bought a salvia microscope. but doubt that will work either, i just wished my hospital hadnt messed about and now got to wait another 3 months just to get first appointment. just feel so fed up

Oh no didn't realise you'd been messed around at hospital..... what happened?
i'm on my first month of using cbfm,how long did you use yours?
What is a salvia microscope??
Haha.... sorry lots of questions!
One more, have you tried zestica?
You do sound down ((((((((((((hugs))))))))))))
it's horrid isn't it,all this waiting and waiting and then more waiting,i've had 3 years of it and sometimes i feel like giving up but i always find my pma again and i hope you do sweet x

Hey, I charted for 3 months before giving up because it was stressing me out too much, I wasn't sleeping and once you have a pattern it doesn't really mean anything, however I would have to agree with flenns angel, I would read your chart in the same way. I am reasonably lucky in that I have a text book chart and cycle, my temps did more or less what they were meant to every month so it proved a point and ceased to be of use. Just wanted to send you a hug, you sound like you need it. Don't become a slave to your thermometer, beyond a couple of months it is actually not that useful xx

hi glenns angel and socks thanks for the hugs i really do need them right now. what happened at hospital was. i got told i had pcos following a scan i had in june, i then had cd21 bloods and that came back that i wasnt ovulating. so doctor referred me to fertility specialist, i had to wait 2 months for app. it finally came on 25th august, at 7.30pm, got there and the man asked me what i was there for, i told that i had pcos and wasnt ovulating and that we were ttc, he said oh you need to be referred to see fertility specialist, i said i thought that was who you was as i was sent to fertility specialist, some one had mix up at the hospita who i saw and just put me with a gynae. anyway i came away very upset. then just got the letter few days ago for new app with th fertility doctor and it is another 3 months wait, so i will have waited 5 months just to be seen for first time. so i started to chart in the hope that i was ovulating, but even tho it says i have, i still dont think i am. i have just bought some zestica lubicant spray, will try it next month, but wont know when to spray it cos dont have a clue if or when i do ovulate. i have asked doctor if i can have another cd21 bloods done next month and he has filled form out for me. the microscope is a little microscope which looks like a lipstick. no bigger than one. you put some salvia on the lens and then after 5 minutes read the results, if it looks like ferning on lens that is when you are fertile, but once you have bought the microscope there is no more expense unlike the cbfm with the test strips, i am going to sell my cbfm have few test strips left too, sell it on ebay.

i got a phone call today from pals at the hospital as they have been looking in to it for me. they have gotten no joy, and they dont think it should end there, so they have passed my case onto management, and they will be investigating it now i just dont see why i have to wait another 3 months, my new app is 27th november. i feel so tired and drained from all this. my poor hubby doesnt no what to say, he keeps asking me if i am ok and hugging me, but i cant move away from how upset and down i am.

hi, i can't believe it my temp this morning was 97.45 entered it into fertility friend and it has done it again, it has moved it from cd 27 back to cd 18 which it said in first place. and i am back to 13dpo.????? this is confusing the hell out of me

oh GB...... That is confusing!
Like i mentioned before i'm only on my 2nd cycle of charting but i'm sure i've read somewhere on here that us girlies with pcos tend to have temps that fluctuate and maybe that is why your chart is chopping and changing?!!
I'm sorry i can't offer you more advice on this,i'm gonna stick with charting for a couple more months as my specialist seems to think that i only release an egg from one ovary so need to do 2 or 3 months to see if things differ.
How long have you been trying now?
I notice you were diagnosed back in June but did your doctor prescribe you any drugs like Metformin or Clomid?
It's just that i had my Metformin,Clomid and my HYCOSY before i even saw a fertility consultant....... It was only when they didn't work that i went to the consultant and then had Ovarian Drilling.
I wish i could give you some better advice and i really feel for you, though i do think that it's a good thing that your case is being seen by managment,you really shouldn't have to wait again just because a staff member got it wrong..... Could you maybe call your consultants secretary every monday to see if there have been any cancellations?

I would be tempted to use the Zestica every time you BD that way you'll hopefully catch OV and fingers crossed it will help those little swimmers to get to where they need to go, remember that some ladies who OV sometimes don't produce enough EWCM at the right time so i'm hoping that this will help you x

Your microscope thingy sounds good and at least it means you won't need to have extra outlay like the CBFM x

I would keep pestering the hospital...... those who shout the loudest eventually get heard!!! :lol:

We can only imagine how difficult it can be for our hubbys and oh's.....
To see us upset so often but you're getting lots of hugs from him, by the sounds of it he's a good guy and loves you x :\)

hi glenns angel, i am so greatful to have my hubby i was with a violent man before him for over 10 yrs, and it was like he was sent to me. and i want so much to give him a baby of his own. i have 2 boys from that violent ex and he never deserved the boys. my youngest son is autistic and he would hit him for it. needless to say they dont see him anymore. their dad now is my hubby they worship him and he does them.
fertility friend switched back to cd 18 yesterday and then today i would be on 14dpo and my temp has dropped to 97.18 and so it has switched back to cd 27 that is the 4th time it has switched on me, i might give it 1 more month of charting if it does this again then i am not going to, as with the hospital and then this it is making me really down and depressed and stressed and i shouldnt be that.
i got a phone call last night from management at hospital i went through everything with her of what had happened and she said what would i like to happen, i said i want to be seen straight away i have waited long enough and i want the drugs to help me cos i dont think i am ovulating at all.
my gp's are not allowed to prescribed clomid or metformin as i asked for this and they told me they arent allowed. my hubby hasnt even been tested. all i have had done is 2 blood test to check hormorne levels, 1 came back 2 of them were high then the next one came back normal. i had a scan that showed pcos. and then had cd21 bloods and came back i didnt ovulate. and thats it that is all i have had done, havent seen anyone since june, as the app in aug nothing was done cos he wasnt a fertility specialist. all he kept going on about was my weight and i have been trying.
what is hycosy? havent heard of it

morning x to be honest i'm very surprised about your doc not being allowed to give you metformin or clomid!!! where do you live? the only thing i can think is that it is different in each area and if that's it then that's mad!! how long have you been ttc? god i feel mad and upset for you hun.... hopefully you'll get an app at hospital quickly now x i'm on mobile typing this so i'll get on laptop when i'm home and explain hycosy x your hubby sounds great with you and your kids,you deserve some good luck x
