Anyway, days later I got +OPK, more O pains that ended up lasting for days (totally unusual for me) and my temp eventually spiked saying I O on CD18 (the latest I have ever O). I try to plan some things in advance for when I think I will O, as DH works away. So what I had ended up doing was having him around when I didn't O, and having him away when I needed him.
This month I am trying not to pre-plan and just go with what my body is doing. There is a very small possibility I could get pg from our Feb attempts, but as we have BD much closer to O before and got BFNs I am not expecting anything to come of it. I still have no idea why I got O pains for so many days. Was going to ask the naturopath if I could have had a cyst? Once I did eventually O the pain went away, but it had been quite bad for 4 days.
I have some new words under my siggy to make me remember it will all work out in the end. I just need to stop being a control freak!
