CD 50

Well, it happened again. The crosshairs that indicated ovulation disappeared due to my temps. I'm ready to give up!! I could have sworn I ovulated this time, but I thought maybe yesterday I did, not last week, so maybe I will get a spike tomorrow or the next day. The games my body is playing are wearing me down.

CD 50:

BBT: 36.09 C
CM: Possibly EW
CP: Medium, slightly open

CD 49: 36.09 C

CD 48 ~ 5 DPO

My temperature was down a bit today, but I didn't have much restful sleep, so I'm not too worried about it. Ovulation is still showing on my chart, so we'll see how it goes the rest of the week.

SD2 came over today! He texted me right before I left work, so it worked out well. I doubt there was much point to it, but it certainly can't hurt!

CD 48:

BBT: 36.09 C

5 DPO Symptoms:
  • Fatigue (probably the lack of sleep)
  • Stressed/anxious
  • Bloated big time
  • Increased sex drive
  • Sensitive nipples
  • Headache

CD 47 ~ 4 DPO

I don't have a lot to report this week. I haven't been getting accurate temperatures thanks to my little kitty who likes to wake me up 2 hours before my regular temp-time. Thanks babe. I still put in temps when I get them, and put the correct time so that I can keep track, and after I did that today, my chart pinpointed ovulation on CD 43! I don't believe it, because my temps are unreliable, but I'll play along for now. So this puts me at 4 DPO, but unfortunately I haven't been keeping track of symptoms, or checking my cervix. I would start checking it, but my sex drive has been through the roof lately (which is what made me suspect ovulation in the first place) and it affects the position of the cervix, making it pointless to check.

I emailed SD2 asking him to come over this week and next week to increase my chances before my vacation, but he isn't sure if it's feasible. It won't matter if I've already ovulated, but just in case, I'd like to try. We only got together that one day last week, which was great timing at two days before ovulation, but doesn't give me much hope. We will see though.

CD 41

Over the last few days I have been checking my cervix and taking my temperature sporadically, nothing interesting to report there, but a couple days ago I realized my sex drive was through the roof. I went to a party on the weekend and it was difficult to behave myself!! I took an OPK the next day, and it looked either positive, or extremely close to becoming positive. I freaked out and emailed SD2, but unfortunately he couldn't get together until today.

I took another OPK yesterday (less than 24 hours after the previous test), and it was quite negative. I'm not sure what that means; it could be that I missed my surge, or it was another fake ovulation, or my urine wasn't concentrated enough.

Either way, SD2 came over today just in case.

I am hoping to have a temp spike tomorrow or the next day to confirm ovulation. If not, I will buy more tests and keep watching for ovulation.

CD 41:

BBT: 35.88 C

CD 40:

BBT: 35.95 C
CM: EWCM!!

Not many symptoms for now, I will update soon.
