Gone Awhile and Need Help

MamaAnna · #1 May 5th, 2008, 07:43 AM

I've been sick for about a week now and I'm pretty sure it's bronchitis/pneumonia. I've had a fever every day that is throwing my chart completely out of whack. Being so sick I'm sure we didn't catch the eggie and even if we did by some slim chance I'm sure that nothing would come of it. At this point my real concern is trying to figure out when I O'd. I took the fever marks off of my temps and put them in the notes section for the time being so you can see what they've been doing. I don't chart my CM, but I had a LOT of it for several days between CD 12 and CD 14 and some of the worst O pains I've ever had. I'm sure that I O'd early, it's just a matter of when. The reason I want to know is so that I can better anticipate AF's arrival. Since my cycles range from 29-39 days knowing can take a lot of the stress out of it.

Thank you in advance!

without knowing what kind of CM, how long, how it changed, I can't even hazard a guess with a fever and everything. Sickness can throw off your cycle too.

Thanks. I couldn't really say what kind of CM it was because it always gets weird when I'm sick. I'm not temping again until I've been fever free for 24 hours, when ever that is. That way at least I can be confident that it's a normal temp. And here I thought my second month of charting would be easier!

The first month of charting for me, I got soooo sick. I had such a high fever all day, and it was just horrible. My chart was so messed up during that. It's really hard to tell anything from your chart when you have a fever. Good luck to you!

I'm sorry you got sick! It is SO frustrating when you're charting and temping and boom, you get a fever! Especially when it messes with your CM!

Good luck hon! Hope you get everything back on track soon, and that you're feeling better!!

Thanks. They diagnosed me last night with bronchitis and possible pneumonia so I'm now on a TTC medication. My fever broke and I know I O'd early, I'm just not sure if it was CD 14, 15 or 16 since I had a fever on CDs 15 and 16. Still, at least I know roughly when to expect AF so we can start cycle 7. I was hoping this cycle would be it for us, but being sick I highly doubt it. It has just been so hard to BD feeling this way.
