oh Zee-
I totally feel for you.........I feel that way on a regular basis let alone can imagine the stress of IUI and being so hopeful it's worked but scared and depressed it mightn't have. I'm pretty sure tho that kind of thing can take a few attempts though for most people so don't give up hope, even if you don't get pg this cycle!!!!!! FX'd really tightly for you that you are!
Well I took my v reading this morning and it was low, when I still had a touch of ewcm, but then took it this afternoon and it confirmed ovulation for today. My EWCM disssapeared sometime between then and now so I am feeling pretty confident that I did ov today. I am really not using the ovacue at all as directed, taking so many v readings in one day but I'm throwing to the wind and hoping this way I can really pinpoint ov tightly! We had one last bd as soon as I got confirmation-just in case.
Also-I think that was my last "bd"-for a while anyways. I'm done for this cycle and if we don't get pg than I am going on semination vacation. The plan is to give up all charting, monitor, keeping track of cycle, etc. and only try and have a healthy regular sex life without paying any mind to the date. I'm going to try very hard to give this a go at least through the end of Sept.
Besides the issue that maybe something truly does happen when you "relax" (I'm sorry-I hate that too!!!!!!!), I think at the very least, maybe it's not the relaxing part that works for NTNP but wondering if when TTC for some people you get so focused on the target dates and maybe if one thing is off a hair, you miss the target but don't know it. Like maybe I really need to bd cd 14-16 to get pg, but since I always think I ov on cd11-13 and try so hard to bd five days before begninning window and am tired and done at the end that we miss it? IDK.....just a theory.
