Temp did rise! How could this be??????

How strange! HELP! I have never been so confused in my life! I usually know, to the T, everything about my cycles. I am about to CRY! I think I o'd on CD12, then I had a ton of EWCM from CD14-CD19. Now, I have clear watery and cramping for the past 3 days, but totally expected AF yesterday with that dip! Got the ++ HPT at 8dpo, in which the line disapeared 30 minutes later! Now, a temp spike (and a slight, small amount of brown this am, if I wasn't looking closely, I wouldn't have even seen it). Implantation? AF coming? No blood since... Any experiences or input appreciated. I've never had this happen before and I have had 3 pregnancies... Thanks in advance

That is pretty confusing! I would guess that you have your O day correct, since you used an OPK. It also fits with the temperature pattern. Have done another HPT yet? (I'm assuming it was 2 days ago that you tested.) That might answer your question. A temp dip and slight spotting at 8-10 dpo could coincide with implantation. If so, HCG production would be just starting. HTH, and keep us posted.

I think your temp dip deff could have been implantation. I would test agian @ 12 dpo. I think your first hpt was +. Just because it disaperes doesnt mean its -. Mine disapered and I was PG. Mostly you are just gonna have to wait it out. I know that sucks. But your chart looks good. Its just too soon to tell yet, sorry. But I think w/ that dip and the + hpt you have a good shot at it this month. Good luck!!!!! +++++++++++vibes!!!!!!!!!!! And patiant vibes############.

Hi Kellie!

I am no expert at charting, (this is my first cycle.)

Just wondering if you maybe did anything different. Did you take your temp at the same time as usual? Did you have anything to drink last night that may have increased temps?

(I noticed over the weekend that temps rise when you drink champagne the night before.) LOL

Or, maybe you are not feelig well? Do you take your temp one time and record it, or do you take it more than once to compare? I know you arent supposed to do that, but I cant help it - I usually take it 3 times to make sure. (luckily I get the same reading each time.)

Just curious - like I said, I am no expert!

Do you have any HPT handy? I would test if you do!!

Good luck to you!

I hope you get a BFP!!

Kellie...

First off, it would be a good idea to go back in and record that extra EW cm you had days 14-19...sometimes you can have a reappearance of it due to a second small surge of estrogen post O, but you can also have it reappear and then have a delayed ovulation...yes, even though you got a + OPK...trust me, happened the cycle I got PG with Hannah. Extra cm can also come before af appears. If you ever see EW, even though you think you ovulated already, make sure to BD, just in case. (and I assume you are tracking BD, just don't ahve it showing on your chart?)

That said, I really think there is a good chance that temp on cd 21 could have been a fluke, since it was way lower than the rest and went back up. Was there anything that would have thrown it off? Mouth breathing at night, taking it earlier, not sleeping well, woke up cold? Try not to stress over it, your cycle looks great...just make sure to record all your signs, even after O, it really can help to see the big picture.

The + you got on 8 dpo stumps me. What brand was it? Did you see two distinct lines and then one went away, or could it have just been the dye washing over the window? It's been a while, but I have BTDT with analyzing hpt's lol! The cramping can happen with implant, as well as a bit of spotting, although not many people get spotting at implant, it is over-rated, lol. As you know they can also be signs of af, but your temp is still very good.

What about those temps on cd 7,8,9,10? Were they taken at a different time than normal? It would have been good to have a correct cd 10 temp, since you had a big spike after that and a + OPK the next day. Keep watching, and test again soon! Good luck!

Thanks everyone,

Kim, The test was definitely done (pink was all gone except the lines) and the positive stayed for at least 5 minutes, because I stared at the test in disbelief! It was a First Response Early. It dissapeared sometime while I was getting my ds up and came back around 20 minutes later. I tested again this morning with an OPK (they pick up HCG as well) and the test line is darker than the control line. So, now I am really confused. I did note the EWCM in my chart, but just did not put it ON the graph. I can't think of anything that would have thrown the temp off and I take it at 7am, religously. I also do take it 3 times to make sure and use the first temp, as a rule, but might note in the chart if the temps are totally different from each other. That hasn't happened this cycle yet. My temps on days 7-10 were taken at the correct time, BUT, my ds was sick, so they might not have been 100% accurate because I did not sleep very well. I am not sick right now, no fever, etc. So, I know, I will just have to wait it out, but this is killing me! First, I see a +, then I resign myself to the fact that AF will be coming yesterday, now today's temp and the very + OPK (and no AF as of yet). I think I should just throw my hands up in the air! LOL! I am 10dpo today, so I think I will wait until Saturday and go get another HPT to test. sigh... I'm not sure what else to think..

Hi Kellie,

It sounds pretty good to me. Your chart looks real good. I think this month could be your month! Good Luck

Thanks for your input. Anyone get a negative test at 13dpo to go on to get a + later or have a healthy pregnancy? Still lotiony, if any, cm and cramping but no AF. No idea what else could be going on? Here is my latest chart..

Kellie, 13dpo, HPT negative so far (or very very faint).. Beta blood test on Monday if still no AF
