Waiting

Ok, so I am waiting to O. Yeah ovulate. I did the two week wait to get confirmation on a pregnancy but it was a negative. I basically had the prettiest chart ever. Totally helped that I was halfway through my cycle when I finally put the numbers in FF. The cross hairs popped up perfectly. I had that elusive dip before O and then quickly rising temps. There also happened to be some beginners luck on the BD timing. I had high hopes! I also think I had a fertilized egg that bounced its way down my uterus and found its way out. Why? Just a few things that have NEVER happened makes me believe that something different did happen. I went back and forth and back again. Poor hubbs.

So now I wait. I wait for that pretty dip to happen again. I'm sure it won't this time, now that I know what to look for. I thought I had done something wrong to regress in temperature but alas my body knew what to do. After temping, learning how to actual temp, and reading more about the female body I am a mess. All this knowledge is mind boggling.

I don't know how this cycle will go. To be able to tell Hubbs at Christmas would be great. But that would also mean I would have to keep it a secret for two weeks which is just not possiable. I barely can keep the idea a secret! Oh well here is hoping.

Temping

So for the month of October I started temping. I used a Basel Body thermometer to check my waking temps every morning. Falls and rises can tell me when I ovulate and need to get busy. I might have recorded my start day later then necessary, but I think it was good. Then it was a perfect ovulation then 18 days of high, higher, and highest temps. Also just happened to get busy right before ovulation so my hopes were up. Then with the temps so high my hopes rose and rose. I tested, negative on 14 DPO, and thought I would hold off testing again. I was a big ball of confused mess. Turns out I'm NOT pregnant the tail tell sign did show regardless of the elevated temps. But it did have me pretty curious. Lots of discussions with the Hubbs going with "I am pretty sure I am pregnant" to "nah, don't think so" and back about every half day. Poor guy!

Went out to get "Figuring out Your Fertility". Its been an interesting read so far and I am only 30 or so pages. I have managed to seriously gross out the Hubbs more then once! We'll see how this goes!
