Any time now would be great

Today is CD 36 and after I put in my temperature on my chart it took away my cover line, so it is painfully obvious that I did not ovulate. I took a pregnancy test today as well and it was blaringly negative. I don't have any signs that my period is on its way. I feel fine, albit a little tired since I haven't been sleeping well. I hate waking up around 3am every night.

I started taking my medication I had left over from a few cycles ago to induce my period and I started with the Vitex. So hopefully third times a charm.

I will be sending prayers up for everyone who is dealing with infertility. Let's pray this cycle is the one!

Interesting

I woke up this morning and temped. I was shocked to see my temp had jumped to 98.05. I am wondering if the temp jump was caused by the BCP or I really ovulated. I was hesitant to take the BCP today. What if I did ovulate? But it’d be too late to do anything about it. My husband and I haven’t baby danced since Sunday. I’m mostly worried about what if I did ovulate and conceive and that taking these BCPs to bring on my period will abort the fetus. But I am taking the BCPs for medication to bring on AF and not to contracept. I still feel horrible. I’m hoping it was a fluke because I wasn’t feeling well yesterday with the migraine I got. I only have 4 more days of the BCPs. So the 28th will be the last day I take them and it can’t come soon enough. I hate being on them because the artificial hormones really mess with my system and I always end up feeling sick. I took BCPs several years ago before I converted and was very happy to stop taking them.

Tonight is my first night of classes and school will be a nice distraction from this trying to conceive rollercoaster.

Obsessive

I've noticed that when I start a new cycle I get very obsessive about my temperatures and every little thing that I think could be a symptom of ovulating.

For instance, today I've been nauseous most of the day and have had mild cramping sensations all leading me to believe that I'm ovulating today. I did check and nausea can be a sign of ovulation.

I've been spending most of my waking hours pouring over posts at Fertility Friend and staring at my chart hoping to gain some insight that really isn't there.

Hopefully I don't drive myself crazy before my consultation on the 22nd.
