Bfn again this morning. Not surprising. With a chart like mine, I clearly didn't ovulate, and since I didn't ovulate, I'm clearly not pregnant. So now I'm just waiting for AF to show herself and the way I'm feeling, it should be immanent (which means I need to buy more tampons).

I told DH this morning, and he said "Oh well.....that means more sex!" Is that not a male response or what?? I seriously nearly smacked him. Sex is the last thing on my mind right now.


The thing that has me down the most is that I didn't even ovulate. It's like trying out for the soccer team, but you have to bring your own ball and mine was flat, so I couldn't. So not only did I not make the team, I couldn't even try out. I didn't have a chance.


I'm frustrated that I thought going on bcp for those 2 months was a good idea. The last 2 times I was on it my body bounced back like it was nothing and I was on it longer both those times. But that was 4 and 5 years ago and while I don't feel any older apparently my ovaries do.


So I'm bummed. Could you ladies send AF my way please? I know none of you want her around. I'm just ready to be done with this cycle and try again and hopefully my body remembers what it's supposed to be doing this time and it's not screwed up for longer than I was actually on the bcp.

Men!! I've gotten that response too!!

And you can have all my AF dust!! I was anxious for her to appear last time but now would be very happy if she stayed away (but only if it means one thing).

My DH actually asked me this morning if we could bd to see if it 'feels different'. He said maybe he could tell me if i was pregnant - seriously. LOL

Could you have ovulated on the 15th? Like they say, it's not over until she arrives...

LOL I frequently ask him "Wheres my cervix? Up high? Down low? Can you feel it? lol


Brittanie, I really think you should have your P4 checked to see if you are ovulating. Good luck! Hopefully everything becomes clear soon.

Well if it makes you feel better I did ovulate and A/F showed yesterday
I am having a horrible A/F really heavy and tons of clots

Hoping your A/F shows too so you can get a fresh start.

That was a coffee spitter!!!

Brittanie, I'm sorry Did your charts show ovulation clearly before you went on the bc? I only ask because this cycle you did have fertile CM and ovulation pain, so I wonder if maybe you're one of those people who have a hard time with oral temping?

[martilynne]

I'm sorry Brittanie, I hope AF shows soon and that you ovulate this next cycle

[Brittanie]

Nicole, yeah I did. These are the 2 cycles before bcp


and the first cycle on bcp

second cycle on bcp

and the two since going off (including the current one)



Tobi: DH has told me that he's not willing to have me do any sort of testing until it's been 6 months without me Oing. Even a simple blood test. If I don't O next cycle I'll call my dr. I'm not *really* worried, not a whole lot anyway. I want to give my body time to figure itself out. I'm mostly just frustrated that my body is so different now.

Brittanie, I'm looking at the August 3, 2010 cycle... you didn't really have a super clear temp shift and to my eye (without the benefit of the overlay tool ) it looks similar to this cycle. What I'm hoping is that you are secretly O'ing and get your BFP when you don't even think it's possible And I can't have that wish for you come true, I hope you get a clearly ovulatory cycle next month. Our bodies can be so frustrating. I hope yours starts doing what you want it to.

Nicole, I was thinking the same thing. I don't know though. I did take tylenol instead of ibuprofin after massacring my finger at the store today just in case, though. This month does look more ovulatory than last, so hopefully it's a step in the right direction.
