Going for betas today. I won't get the results until Monday but it's something. I'll probably repeat on Monday or Tuesday and we'll go from there.
My doctor didn't seem too concerned and said it could simply be implantation bleeding. But because of my history she also said she can't rule out it being a non viable pregnancy. So going for betas and then just waiting.

Sorry it's so frustrating:( But -1 is still good timing! If the OPKs aren't working for you don't use them. Especially if you're not getting positives. That would drive me insane! It is. And I’m so sick of it. So I think going forward we will be doing EOD starting at CD10. I’m just irrationally mad that H was out of town. Even though it’s not his fault. The good thing being we won’t have to try to sneak away this weekend to DTD. So I don’t have to worry about us sharing a room win DD and a small cottage with 9 other people. Silver linings:) The EOD is a good plan. That way you cover all the bases no matter what. I also get irrationally mad at SO when the timing doesn't work out. It's not always his fault...but I feel like it always is:)

sammysam your lines look great, but I understand being guarded. I've had bleeding in 2/3 of my pregnancies. Dd1 I had spotting that went away and she's now 3. Pregnancy two (miscarriage) I had pink/red bleeding that just continued to get worse. M was nice to me and I didn't have any bleeding, but she's been giving all sorts of other scares since she's been here.

The spotting ended up being very minimal (no red at all...just light pink) and only lasted a few hours. But as I've never had any spotting in pregnancy except for when I started to miscarry I'm still wary.

I really thought I had O'd and now my temps are staying flat and it looks like maybe not. I'm so bummed out. FF only shows me anovulatory charts when I look at "charts like mine" and I'm wondering if anyone here can tell me if it always shows that if you look to compare charts before getting O crosshairs or if that's because it can tell this cycle is a bust.

Ok, so I got my crosshairs today. When I look at charts like mine I see only ovulatory charts. When I delete today's temp it shows me only anovulatory charts.

That allows me to hold on to a small grain of hope ☺️🤗

OPK interpretations wanted: A is CD 22 and B is CD 23... this is about as positive as I ever get, do we think either one counts? Since those days the test line has faded out.

Tlex I think B is darker? Have you tried the stick analyzer in Glow? It plots it along a gradient and has been helpful for me to determine if it is getting darker or getting closer to positive.

Tlex, I'd be tempted to call CD 23 positive, especially since the afternoon one is pretty dark.

Tlex If those were my OPKs, I would not call any of them positive. But it’s probably different for each person and depending on brand. Sorry your temps are being jerks.

I'm so frustrated with my BBT. I'm getting totally flat temp readings orally, but when I've tried vaginally (for science!) I get temps that much better reflect what I'd expect to see if I had O'd. I know I can't switch methods at this point in the cycle so it's making me crazy. It's a new thermometer battery, and when I try at other times of day I get different readings. Wish I'd been vaginally temping all along. 😤
