Last cycle, my first using that defective monitor, the girl at customer service had mentioned that even though the monitor peaked, its possible that I didnt ovulate because I didnt have the usual cramping and sore bb's that I have every month. I remember how upset I was that she said that, and how mad you all were that she dared to say that to me as well! (Thank you girls!)
But, Im back this cycle, with the new monitor, peak readings and omg bad O cramping. So as much as I hate to admit it, I think she was right. I think I didnt O last month. (On a positive note, Im pretty happy to be able to confirm that the pains I feel are actually O pains!)
And as a result of that last cycle being bfn, I made the decision to take a break from ttc, as most of you know, so now I wonder if I gave up too soon. I feel really bad about it. Especially since I was able to totally convince dbf that taking a break was best for me right now. GRRRR!
It really freaks me out cause Im worried that if I didnt O last month, does that mean that menopause is right around the corner?
Looks like the stress from ttc isnt taking a vacation even though we are taking a ttc break!
I need a hug....
Thanks for listening to my vent girls.

Could you possibly just seduce him without telling him about it? I don't think the stress ever really goes away even when you're not doing anything to actively help it along.

Good luck honey. I can't answer the menopause question, but I do know that it can be normal to have a random annovulatory cycle.

HAHA Brittanie! Our sex life hasnt diminished in the least, but he's an expert at 'pulling out' just in time! Maybe Ill trap him so he cant?
You are right about the stress not going away. I think Im going to have to google about annovulatory cycles. Thanks for replying, and making me giggle!

[Brittanie]

well, you're welcome for the giggle. lol

I think trapping him is a good idea

Huge hugs Tobi! I also vote for trapping him. Maybe you should post that as a poll question and see what everyone thinks!! Good luck.

Update**
hahaha Ok so dbf got off from work early, so we dtd! I didnt have to trap him at all, after some friendly banter it was just agreed. So its peak day #2 on my monitor so I should O today. Hopefully ff agrees! Fingers crossed!
