Am I Ovulating?
Posted: 09-10-07 03:57am

Hi all,

I've been frustrated lately at interpreting my own body.  I am trying to conceive and has tried all the measurements for fertility, such as BBT, cervical mucus and position.  I have an irregular periods and basically relies on these method to look for signs when is the right time to have intercourse.

Btw, my case is I have been experiencing HIGH, SOFT, CLOSE cervical position for > 10 days already.  Is this normal? Is this a sign of ovulation? I can feel I'm ovulating by having soft tender (but not swollen), mood swing, tummy bloats however when i check my BBT, it's been quite erratic and doesn't show much obvious difference from the period time and it can be extreme, like one day high and the next day low.  My mucus never shows a clear egg white symptom during this time as well (white mixed watery, poorly stretchable, tacky).  What does this all mean? Even though it's sign of ovulating, but how come my period never comes? In previous periods, I just had those signs for few days only, not like this time (>10 days).

Regards,

Frustrated

are you taking your temp at the same time everyday? if so then it is possible you are not ovulating correctly. do the charts for a few months then if there is never a definite ovulation time take your charts to your Dr and have them look at them. that is what i did because mine were screwy and i had to go on clomid, but it worked! cervical mucus to me was hard to go by... i only had the egg white right at ovulation and that made it hard to judge anything! i never did the position either, so i don't know about that.
good luck!!!

Yep..I have been taking the measurement at the same time and they really looks like rocky mountain..

Funny things is I can feel the bloaty, crampy, heaty feeling just exactly like pre-PMS symptoms but the temp didnt go hand in hand. That's why I'm not sure whether I have ovulated. Even though I have ovulated it's impossible to have rise and soft cervical position for so many days rite?? I'm wondering whether this is normal. I heard from somewhere that if you have this cervical position > 12 days then you have possibility to be pregnant, however when I took pregnancy test yesterday it turn out to be negative. E'thing like goes haywire and it's been worrying me.
