Not Knowing Whether I'm Ovulating or Not is so Frustrating :'(

[cmarie33]

I hardly had any lunch yesterday. Half a slice of pizza last night. A bit of buffet food for lunch today and a tiny plate of tuna pasta tonight. I just feel like I can't stomach anything xx

It could be an ov symptom unique to you, ya know? I wouldn't worry about it as long as you eat something. Even if you don't want to eat it or it makes you queasy. If you're holding it all down it should be ok. It could be just one of your ov symptoms, everyone's different.

 

[cmarie33]

I think it's prob just ov symptoms. I'm really tired tonight too so it makes sense xx

 

[ImSoTired]

Looking back when I was younger, before dreaded bc ruined me, I used to get ov symptoms like sensitive nipples, ovary cramping etc. It's funny because I didn't even know that's what it was. Now a days I'd kill for those symptoms and a more regular cycle like I used to have. I don't even get discharge anymore. I'm very dry on the outside. I still have cm inside just not overly abundant. I wish I had symptoms of ov again! I'm hoping the vitex I'm taking will help with that.

 

[cmarie33]

I don't have a clue which are of symptoms and which are nothing to do with it! I just assume most of it is my body regulating after bcp! xx

 

[cmarie33]

And I'm the same with cm, I've bought some preseed to use this cycle xx

 

[ameeann]

I'm deffo the same with cm!! It's so hard to bd over the right time so much!! haha


and cmarie, I'll post your pic now, I think yesterday was your peak yes! lol

fingers crossed you caught the eggy! a bump buddy would be amazing! I hope you all get it in the next month or so! oooo imagine how good that would be!!!

I have the not wanting to eat thing now I'm pg, not so much that I don't eat, but it takes a lot to totally put me off my food

 

[ameeann]

ohh try bd tonight too . . . just to cover all your basis! hehe

 

[ImSoTired]

I bought preseed also but I haven't used it yet. I decided I'd start charting and trying hardcore after this cycle because I tested the day I thought my period was due and it was neg. Well like 50 days later here I am so I haven't used anything else. It would be my luck though to get pg after I have bought all of these things and not be able to use any of them. lol. I guess we will hafta see.

 

[cmarie33]

We used it last night and we will bd tonight too! Poor OH is having to be ready on demand hehe! Maybe it would be typical ImSoTired, but it's definitely be a good thing if you didn't need them! thanks ameeann xx

 

[ameeann]

I honestly would advise temping, opks, checking cp and cm!!

opks give you the idea of when you're ovulating and temping confirms it, my body geared up twice before actually ovulating on the third go! lol

just take it in your stride though, don't stress over thing's too much, like cm and cp, because they can take a while to get used to! they still confuse me . . . haha


I was going to use pre seed this cycle!! lol

 

[ameeann]

cmarie, your welcome! I sure hope this is it for you!

Hi ladies! How is everyone today? I'm about to go grocery shopping so I thought I'd drop by for a quick post. I am tired...very tired and a bit irritable.
I have sensative nipples and my boobs are a tiny bit sore. The last two evenings I've felt like I was getting a cold between my nose and throat but the feeling then goes away by morning. Last night I had some cramps and I was sure af was coming but she's not here yet. I have sore shoulders probably from lifting the child I babysit 3x a week. I'm still a bit nervous to test but at least I'm having symptoms now, so I'm not worried anymore. I'm kinda confused actually. Anyhow, I'll talk to you girls later!

 

[cmarie33]

Eek when will you test? I got positive opk on Monday, so assume I ov'd yesterday, which puts me at 1dpo today. I may be able to test on nye!

 

[ameeann]

Yay for 1dpo! And yay! For being able to test soon!!

 

[cmarie33]

Hmm my ov symptoms aren't as intense as last cycle. Got slightly sore nipples and had pain yesterday but that's it. last cycle my boobs were sore and I had cramping...

 

[ameeann]

well tbh, I didn't have any signs of OVing other than temping opks etc, bit extra cm and a bit of a weird belly ache for like 10 mins but that was it!

I figured, I didn't know what it felt like anymore because of being on the BCP for so long! lol

 

[cmarie33]

Yeah that's what I'm thinking! Lol. Just hoping I have ov'd and it wasn't just a surge! xx

 

[ameeann]

well if you don't catch the eggy this time round, deffo temp and use opk's next, it sets your mind at ease! or did mine anyway . . .

 

[cmarie33]

Yeah I will be doing. A bought a thermometer but didn't bother using it this cycle! x
