Sunburn And Bbt Posted: 06-05-07 10:09am
Hi girls
I was out and about on the weekend and got
a wicked sunburn. I know, I
know...STUPID!!
I've noticed that my temps have shot up
and FF tells me I o'd on cd10...but I
think it's way to early to have o'd. I'm
now on cd 14, and I have been getting
negative opk's all along. Do you think the
sunburn may have increased my BBT?
I really hope I didn't miss my ovulation
date. That would really make me cry as I'm
scheduled for my second IUI sometime this
week...
HELP!!

Sorry to hear about the sunburn. Walmart
has some great spray stuff for it. Its
super cheap to. I think its burn aid? Or
something to that effect.
Anyways...I would assume that a sunburn
would raise your bbt. Have you taken your
temperature at any other time during the
day? Do you know if you are running a
fever otherwise? Because that is an option
on ff. Have you been using opk's since
before ff says you o'ed?

Hello!
Ok...I started using opk's from cd12. I
usually start on cd10, but thought that i
could wait a bit since I never get a +
that soon. My opks are getting darker as
the days go on...so I think I'm safe.
I am also getting a cold sore
(grrrrrrrrrr). Cold sores are also called
fever blisters...and I get them if I burn
my lips. So I think that both the sunburn
and cold sore are doing a number on my
temps. I don't have a fever durning the
day, my skin still feels burnt though.
I guess time will tell.
thank you

I think your safe too. I'd be willing to
bet money on your bbt being off because of
the sunburn. If your opks are getting
darker I would assume that means your
getting closer. So you should be fine.
What day to you normally o on?
Question: When you do the iui, do you call
them the day you get a temp spike/+ opk
and then they see you that day? What
happens on the weekend? I know these are
stupid questions, but, I've always been
curious.

KRISTY!! There are no stupid questions!
This is the IUI process my clinc has me
follow, and I think it is the same for
most clinics.
As soon as you get a + opk, call the
clinic. It has to be the 1st or 2nd urine
void, as I need to contact the clinic
before noon. When I call them, they make 2
appointments for the next day
1. For my dh to come in and give his
sample in the morning,
2. For me (I come back 2 hrs after dh and
they inseminate me)
They need the 2hrs to "wash" the sperm
sample. (take out all the dead or
misformed ones)
The reason they make the appointment the
next day after a + opk is because we
normally ovulate within 36 hours of a
+opk.
They also tell us to bd the same night of
the iui, and the following night as well.
I used to have regular ovulation dates
until we started ttc. Then they were all
over the place. But since I started
Clomid, I think it regulated things for
me. Honestly, I feel better on clomid than
I do without it! I must be missing
something naturally from my horomones
because on clomid I have no PMS, no sore
bbs, no spotting a week before af.
This is my 3rd cycle on clomid, and the
last cycle I o'd on cd 16. So that would
make it this Thurs. So tomorrow I should
see + opk. We'll see.
Thanks for your help girl

I hope that you haven't ovulated yet and
that it was the sunburn that raised your
temps.
Thanks for the iui info, I was wondering
about that stuff as well if we ever have
to go down that road.
We are on the same cycle day, so hopefully
we will get that positive the same day.
Not that it matters for me right now, but
you know what I mean.
Good luck and tons and tons of sticky baby
dust for this next iui
**hugs**

Thanks lady
I guess you will be ttc in a couple of
months!! You'll be an expert charter by
the time you can 'try' and have it all
figured out.
I will let ya know if I get my +opk
tomorrow.
ciao

Guess what. I just got back from the RE
and they did an ultrasound that confirmed
my suspicion. I already ovulated.
I missed it altogether. No iui for me this
month.
That means I o'd on cd10!!! That is
reeeeeeeeeeally early, especially being on
clomid.
I got another perscription for clomid to
try one more time.
Ugh...here we go again.

I know...it's almost a joking
matter....the laws of the universe are
laughing at me saying "ha ha...you can try
and control this all you want, but we are
going to do it my way... you can't force
it, It will happen when it's meant to
happen"
I don't think we bd'd at the right time as
I had no idea I was going to ovulatge on
Cd 10!! We bd'd on Cd8 and cd11. Who
knows...but I'm not going to hold my
breath.

dpressd...are you using the clear blue?
They ask to test on day nine and mine has
been really reliable.....I'd say if you
are doing it again next month to keep you
options open...meaning maybe you always
tend to ovulate earlier than even the
sticks are indicating...my obgyn says that
it's possible that peopel ovualte much
earlier and sometimes much later than teh
LH surges indicate and to have sex between
days 9 and 18 for a normal cycle...maybe
you and you husband haven't had luck
becasue you have been ovualting earlier
than anyone expected....I've read
elsewhere that people can ovulate even
earlier than day 10...maybe you should do
it starting on day 8???????????????????
