Waiting to try:Totally confused....about my BBT
2005-12-23
Name: Hope



Hello all,
We have been TTC for 7 months now with 2 cases of chemical pregnancies. My OBGYN performed blood tests and found that I have MTHFR . My obgyn felt that the chemical pregnancies I had in the past could be because of this. I am now being asked to take 1.6 mg of Folic acid (folgard tablets) + over the counter pre-natals every day.
Also since I get a very late + ovulation test result (after 20 days in my 32-33 day cycle) I have been asked to take progesterone after I ovulate.
Now here's the confusing part this month. This month I could not take the ovulation test consistently and so I think missed the LH surge.
My pre ovulation temps are always between 96.9 to 97.3. My temperature rose from 97.1 to 97.4 on Wednesday and again rose to 97.6 on Thursday. I was happy when I saw this thinking i must have ovulation on monday or tuesday. However this morning it should have risen to 97.8 or 98.00. That's what happened in last month's cycle. But instead today it was down to 97.3. I am very confused .....Did I ovulate or not yet.. . I am on day 26 of my 32-33 day cycle. I'm not sure whether I should start taking the progesterone. I heard if progesterone is taken before ovulation it causes prevents ovulation from occuring. So now I don't know what to do.
Please help.....
I think I'll wait and check tomorrow's (Saturday's) temperature. If it's high above 97.6 then I think I'll start the progesterone. Any suggestions ... please advise.

Thanks and sorry for the long post.

Hope
