Let the Charting Begin - Again!


YEAH!!!!!!!!!! Ok.....fun is over. AF (otherwise known as Menses) arrived today. Time to get back to business. Broke out my personal calendar where I keep all my exciting TTC info. You know exciting stuff like Cervical Mucus, Cycle Days, LH hormones, OPK results, Any cramping or Ovary Discomfort, etc. Looks like I will need to focus on at LEAST 3 cycles very thoroughly charted, PRIOR to my first AI with Donor Sperm. I may need 1-3 after that but I will take it month by month. Hopefully 3 will do it to my personal satisfaction. I used to input my info with Fertility Friend (FF) and then I just stopped about 4 months ago. For now, I don't want to use FF but I may later. One thing I never do & that is Temp..for me that is a LAST resort only. I have erratic sleep patterns so, temping wouldn't be accurate for me anyway, even with adjustments. Plus, sometimes I am fine getting 5 hours a sleep a night for 10 days straight...temp taking wise that doesn't make for very accurate readings. I am Happy to be going forward....bring on the diapers folks.....I'm ready!

Oh, yes! Let the fun begin!! My mom who was just here was cracking up at my temp taking, ov watch wearing, CBFM checking, etc., etc. She, of course, got pregnant all three times the old fashioned way - by accident!

Cheers to being a SMBC! Best of the best wishes for you on the shortest possible re-journey to conception!! (hope that makes sense...)
