Seriously driving myself crazy this month

205f96 Ovulation Charts

Okay, so just to let you know if I am not pregnant this month I will be doubly devastated. I had an incredible dream a couple of nights ago that I was pregnant - extremely vivid. So now I am for the first time in months convinced that I am.

If my chart continues at the new higher temp (which this pattern is very different than my usual) is that an indicator?

For the first time I am grasping at straws and hope that I am not jinxing myself.

That is one fine-looking chart

! If your temps stay up at this new level, then it will be a triphasic chart. While it's not a guarantee of pg (you can be triphasic and not pg and you can be pg without being triphasic), it may well be an indication of increased progesterone .... which is great to have if you are pg

!

GOOD LUCK and please let us know how things go!

Maura - you know how to soothe my crazy. I wish I had started charting AGES ago. I wish when we started this TTC journey I started charting then - I did not. I now compare the few charts I have with one another.

My post-O temps have been really jumpy and by day 7 plummeting down, etc. This one just looks different and the dream...

**BC-Maura** · 11-06-2009, 03:00 PM

Well, it IS a gorgeous chart

.

I wish more people knew about charting! I don't know how I would have managed without it during my ttc time. Because of temping, I knew that I was ovulating and so when my OB wanted to put me on Clomid, I was able to really question her and ask why (I didn't end up on it).

Well, I'm glad you found it now and maybe you won't need it for too much longer

.

Good luck and keep us posted++++++++

I am a huge fan of charting now and have been selling others on the concept. It has told me more about myself than anything else.

Well ladies - I started spotting today and it was bright red so I am guessing AF is going to rear her ugly head tomorrow. Very bummed. I was convinced that this month was different. It just felt different. And, my chart was so different.

The emotional highs and lows of trying to get pregnant are painful.

**BC-Maura** · 11-08-2009, 08:02 PM

Oh, no! I'm sorry about the spotting! I hope it stops and your temps stay up... I see no signs of AF coming in your temps ... perhaps it's just implantation spotting or breakthrough bleeding ... I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you still....

Good luck and let us know how tomorrow goes++++++++++
