UPDATED: Why 😩 😢

After 20 months of cycle monitoring, timed intercourse, IUIs and tons of medication we made the decision to move onto IVF at the end of March. With the worldwide pandemic, COVID threw us for a loop when our IVF cycle got cancelled just 2 days shy of starting. So you can imagine the sadness that ensued. I figured oh well we can just try this month for fun since everything is closed and we’re both not stressed and off work.

Everything was looking SO promising - symptom and chart wise. And then this big drop happens this morning. I’m 12DPO and usually have a 30/31 day cycle. So AF could be here in 2-3 days. It’s odd though cause I usually have really bad pre-af cramps but nothing...

UPDATE #1:

Here is my chart after the bbt drop. I’m too nervous to poas 🤦🏼‍♀️. I had a horrible lower backache yesterday, I was finding it uncomfortable to bend over. And the sides of my breasts are really tender and sore, still this morning. I feel like AF is coming but at the same time there’s a little bit of hope 🙏🏼.

The only thing that makes me weary are my other months charts kind of do a similar pattern where there’s a big drop then 2-3 days of raised BBTs then AF shows.

UPDATE #2:

Two of my apps say I was only on CD13 yesterday and today should be CD14.

FF calculated my O day incorrectly and has since updated after I input my bbt this morning.

Had spotting yesterday evening.

Middle of the night I had HORRIBLE AF cramps. My bbt dropped to 97.23 this morning and AF arrived with a vengeance.

Oh well 😔.
