Thanks everyone for your kind wishes.
Sorry I haven't been very active. Things have been super busy here. A couple of quick updates, though:
I give up on temping. I seem to chronically sleep with my mouth open - especially since I've gone from being sick directly to suffering from allergies that keep my nose stuffed up constantly, so there's just no point in temping anymore. They fluctuate so wildly, I know they can't possibly be accurate, and they never tell me when I'm ovulating. It's guestimate starting from CD 1 and CM from now on.
I'm currently on CD 17. Don't know whether or not I have ovulated because I didn't feel the ovary pinch I normally feel (unless I didn't notice it. I've been pretty preoccupied this month), but the CM is moving right along and has become egg whitey for the last few days or so. Just to try desperately not to miss the window, we're doing every other night this week and probably through the next 4 or 5 days just to be thorough. XD
I DO notice something though, and wanted to ask what you all might think...
For all I know, I did ovulate this week, but I suddenly noticed today that I am bloated in a strange way. It's like pelvic sensitivity, but I can't say that it's exactly uterine cramping. If anything, it feels more like maybe muscles being pulled somewhere around the uterus...It's not something I normally feel, and to be totally honest, the last time I bloated up like this was right before my chemical happened. It was a lot worse that time, but it's the same sensation of tension...
Just a shot in the dark, and perhaps a grasping at straws, but do any of you think this might have anything to do with implantation? It's too early, I'm guessing, but then again, I don't know when (or if) I ovulated yet. All I know is that I have this sensitivity because it really smarts when I sit down. I just went for a bike ride to run an errand, and yikes did it hurt when I sat down on the saddle!
I'd love to know what you think. It feels awfully sensitive down there...
