We are TTC. My trip is from tomorrow to April 7. If nothing changes I am supposed to O on April 24. I think I might just skip temping during trip. I can start temping and OPKs when I get back. Hopefully my cycle won't be thrown for too much of a loop, I already have long cycles and they don't need to get longer! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/temping-on-an-international-trip#post-676094 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 21:08:23 +0000 Happygal 676094@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hi @Mrs. 65: I read this earlier and was trying to think of an answer for you! I you charting to avoid or achieve pregnancy? I honestly think I would just pause from temping for the travels b/c things will be so off.</p> <p>And yes, air travel threw off one of my cycles. I asked my doc about it, and she said the pressure when flying can delay ovulation! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/temping-on-an-international-trip#post-675181 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 19:04:59 +0000 AprilK 675181@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was temping a couple years ago when I went to Australia and just temped at the same time as I would normally at home - but in the new time zone. It was a TOTAL mess for a few days but then went back. I was there for two weeks so it might not make sense to do it for four days - once you get back to normal it'll be time to go home :( Maybe just opk twice a day while you're there? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/temping-on-an-international-trip#post-675170 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 19:04:01 +0000 Shutterbug 675170@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. 64: I think the biggest factor on your temp is the hours slept, so I wouldn't worry about the time zone. That being said, if there's no risk of ovulation time happening during your trip I wouldn't bother. I never start temping until a few days before usual O anyway. Have fun on your trip! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/temping-on-an-international-trip#post-675067 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 18:54:26 +0000 mrs. 64 675067@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Anyone? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/temping-on-an-international-trip#post-672264 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 06:53:48 +0000 mrs. 64 672264@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm getting ready to go on a week long international trip (from the east coast to the UK) and I'm wondering how to handle temping. Is there a way to account for the time zone difference or should I just not bother with it while I'm there? It will be at the beginning of my cycle and not close to ovulation.</p> <p>Also, do you notice that travel makes you have a longer cycle or messes it up in any way? The last trip I went on was only 4 days and within my time zone, but I had a super long and weird cycle that time. I know that travel can affect things, but I didn't know if it was due to that or just a coincidence. </p>
