Its sods law.
For the last 10 years or so I have pretty much had 28 day cycles and, based on EWCM, I pretty much ovulated around day 14. This was all I needed to know to get pregnant first cycle with Matilda when I was 37. We have had a few relationship and job issues that have delayed the decision to have number 2 and now, at almost 41, we are ready to try and in the last six months my periods have gone a bit haywire. They are averaging at 31 days but this can be anywhere from 27 35 days meaning that I could be ovulating a week later than usual. At the same time my cycle started to change I also noticed changes in my complexion I was getting bad spots on my forehead, neck and jaw around ovulation and usually my skin in fine.
I have just invested in a Clearblue Fertility Monitor but am too late to start this month so I have bought some Boots ovulation predictors as I was due to ovulate last Saturday on a 28 day cycle or up to next Saturday on a 35 day cycle. Ive also ordered Preseed for good luck.
Have any other 40 or so year olds noticed that their periods have changed? What could this mean? Is my fertility diminishing? Please no!!!!
Why now?!
