TTC Girl - June 2012

Suregena, fingers crossed, your temp is above cover-line this morning!!!

AF showed for me today so it is officially cycle day 1...our 1st TTC cycle! Hopefully everything will go as planned. It does seem that my cycles are getting shorter. I usually have a 28 day and it went from 27 days now to 25 days so I think I am O'ing around CD12 or 13 so I am going to plan for that.

Ha, baaarely! My cervix is confusing me. It feels VERY wet in there... like, a crazy abunance of CM. I don't get it.

I drank RRL tea yesterday (don't ask me why) and it gave me twinges just after consuming it. Er, I'll not touch it just in case. I don't know. I feel like I should go to the doctor seeing as it's 18dpo and no AF yet... maybe to see if they can fill in a blood test form for me (I work at the hospital so it's easy for me to hop over to get a blood test!)

:/

And for the record--all previous symptoms have now ceased to be! So I just have zero hope that this was ever healthy and sticking.

Yes - do that, get a blood test. I still think its odd that you havnt had AF turn up yet.
ANd as much as it seems incredibly unlikely that you o'd on cd 34, it not entirely out of the realm of possibility.
You're best best is to rule things out one by one. So i would definitely get the blood test.

The frustration I feel right now is immense. This sort of *insanity* only happens whilst swaying (it's what it feels like to me because, seriously... the one other time I attempted to sway Dec/Jan cycle, this exact confusing nonsense happened... it's like my body just cannot *deal* with it. But I'm stubborn and will carry on and hope that the soy isoflavones is my ticket to get the show on the road. Sigh...)

My day in and day out normalcy never made me have a weird cycle. I had no cycle due to breastfeeding then I slowly weaned *myself* (not my son) from pumping at work and that brought my cycle right back (because I wanted to get ready to TTC #2.)

First attempt was Dec/Jan attempt. I just didn't seem to be Oing after being on the diet + vitex. And we gave up (so I don't technically count that as a TTC cycle in the end.) My AF showed up CD55... when my cycle was 28 days the month before.

Same thing this time... my last cycle was 29 days. Now since diet, we're heading into CD55+ territory again! It's really making me want to bang my head against the wall......

I'm so sorry suregena! How frustrating. I also find it odd that it's carrying on like this, but cautiously optimistic that it means something good... an absence of symptoms does not necessarily mean it isn't viable. I was going to suggest a blood test too... that should def. give you some answers. And if you felt like the RRL tea was causing any trouble, it's best to steer clear... I never felt anything like "twinges" so who knows...

[suregena]

I really hope I didn't ovulate on CD34 (even though it'd be pretty impossible to get pregnant from then, anyway, since we last BD'd CD28) because I know I probably put on 2lbs. Urgh.

I don't know, sigh...
