please help me with some advice. Have been taking my temperature every morning for several months now and although my cycles are regular my temperature has not risen at all indicating that i am not ovulating.
Is there anyway way that i am wrong?
Can you please give me some advice on what to do now?

Feeling really down about it obviously,
I already have six year old twins (so obviously did ovulate at some point in the past!) but desperately want another baby, have been trying for 18 months with no luck perhaps i now know why.

Thanks for listening,
Love and baby dust to all,
Emma

Hi Emma

I know how you feel, I have a 4 year old and decided last year I really wanted another. We got off to a false start last year and unfortunately ended up loosing a baby. So at the begining of this year I began trying again now my cycle is all over the place, I was told not to try too much but I understand you can't help it. Anyway the upshot of it was my ovualtion happened a week later than I expected, I did buy ovulation sticks expensive but for me one month and I've been caught!!! its early days for me. But I didnt ovulate till day 19.
I would recommend getting the ovulation sticks and try them every other day from day 12 it will be an expensive month but if you can pin point it and know your ovulating you'll feel better.
I felt the same I thought I wasn't ovualating but it could be happening early or late.

Good luck Jude xxx

Hi jude,

Thanks so much for your comments they have given me some hope again. I have bought ovulation sticks so will use them, already on day 18 this month so will wait til next month and hopefully will be as lucky as you!

Take care and really hope all goes well for you,
Love

Glad I could restore some hope for you again, I do remember going to see my doctor in a hystercal state wondering why I hadn't got pregnant yet and I asked the question....might I not be ovualting and she said if you're having period you're definately ovualting its just people do it at different times and its not always set at around day 14 like the average.

Out of interest how many days is your cycle???

I got caught on the first month so keep positve!!!!

Thanks again for your reply1 and positive comments!

my cycle varies from between 28 and 32 days.

Fingers crossed!

Keep us upto date with how you are doing!

Hi Emma

This website has an ovulation calculator - it did accurately point out the week I was to try, but I would still test every other day from earlier in your cycle to be sure.

try not to worry it about it, just go and see the dr and see what advise he can give you.

Your temps may not rise, but don't think the worst. try and stay positive. xxxxx

Hi Emma

The only thing I can suggest is that you see your GP. They will look into things if it's been 18 mths as I was in the same position and the first tests they did were blood ones and a scan to see if I was ovulating. It might be different for you as your periods are regular (mine were all over the place) but I would deffo suggest that and even though you conceived naturally before, having a baby or just being pregnant can apparently change your body and its hormone levels so it might be that one of them has been out of sync since then. Its quite common to have trouble trying even tho you've had natural pregnancy apparently.

Hope you get things sorted soon.

Take care
Bea
