Hi!!!!
@ItsAnna I hope in a couple of days is bfp!!!
Yes @Confused!!!! Lets chill and try relaxing a bit
General question, do you think ia better to keep tracking in general and testing with opk or should I just let it go and not obsses about it? Since last month all 3 systems (OPK, AVA & Temps) gave me different readings for my O date... ahould I do a full month of opk just to know if I have multiples LH surges?
Ussually after I catch a surge I test the next day and when its low again stop testing.... should I follow up the whole month?
Also, last month I went to see my doctor he checked everything, my blood, hormones, ovarian reserve, antimullerian etc... so he told me everything was perfect
Im very millenial like, I have been trying since July, sooooo have to wait is anoying ???? and getting to me (in a bad wait) ????
I will follow teh general advice
Tomorrow I will travel to see my mom and just spend a couple of days with her chilling ??

@becky I'm hesitant to be a believer in the Ava bracelet because it uses skin temperature which can fluctuate even just depending on where the sensor is touching. I think temping and opks are your best bet. Opks will give you a heads up and temping will confirm when ovulation actually happened. It's necessary to do both because a positive opk doesn't guarantee that you O'd and you can O up to a few days after a positive opk. I would temp for the entire cycle, but if your temps confirm O at some point, I would say you can stop opk testing at that point. Good luck! I'm impatient too!
Hope everyone else is relaxing. I haven't gotten out of bed yet, but I've been awake for over an hour.

@itsAna definitely for you. We need those for these holidays. I am on cd 9 today i believe. The witch left about 3days ago. Feeling weird cramps. Waayyyy too early for ovulation but i have heard that first cycles postpartum usually have a short Lutheal Phase. So i am opking like crazy and will try when we can as well.
@Becky im just like you very impatient but i think the key word is in not letting go. Personally i mostly opk, check cm and used to temp. Like @katie said those are the best and most reliables. But it is better to use a thermometer than those bracelets I believe. Either way keep on trying. It can take many many cycles before getting comfortable in knowing for sure when and if ovulation has happened. But in doubt, baby dance.
Will y all be dressing up for halloween?
everyone.

Ugh guess what happened at the most crucial time?? I accidentally knocked my thermometer off my bed side table this morning and ended up having to get out of bed to look for it. It's nowhere to be found!!! It just disappeared into thin air. I looked everywhere it could possibly be. At such a crucial time too!! It's supposed to be the day after O and I was hoping to see a temp rise. So infuriating. I have to vent about such a stupid little thing. How does it fall and disappear?
