Ok, so this long....
I have ovulated maybe 2-3 times since going of bc in December of 2013. I charted for just over a year, but as nearly ever cycle was anovulatory, I gave up and we have become sloppy. Hence the NTNP.
I went off bc not to get pregnant, but because I started to have really bad side effects. I LOVE not being on it, but now here I sit at possibly 8dpo and a bit conflicted. I swear for the past week I have had every symptom in the book - I fully realize that it may just be my body reacting to actually having ovulating, but here is what I've had thus far:
Super sore/sensitive nipples, which after 6 days switched to complete sore breasts. They have also been really "full" and heavy for about a week as well (I'm a solid 30FF to begin with )
Achy back and hips
Wake up with scratchy throat
I have barely slept and and have been waking up 1-2 each night to pee (I am a very solid sleeper, and rarely wake in the middle of the night)
Having charted for over a year, my temps barely ever rose about 97.45, however, it usually stayed closer to high 96's and low 97's. The past 4 days I have temped with my first wake up each night, just for the hell of it. 97.9, 97.9, 97.9, 98.19, 97.9 (mind you these time frames were as such: 3:30am, 4:30am, 5am, 2:30am). I know that means they aren't super reliable, BUT I am never that hot.
I have been having hot flashes, headaches, chapped lips, frequent urination, and have I mentioned how much by boobs hurt?!
In addition, my cervix has remained high (varying in texture throughout the day) and my cm has gone from wet to now being sticky, stringing and white (only there when I internally check).
SOOOOOO, my point.....
DH and I have talked about him getting a vasectomy and today he informed me that he called to make an appointment ( but they need to call him back). I haven't told him I could be pregnant because I didn't want to freak him out for no reason. That said, as we have no children, I would hate for him to get this done before we knew for sure as IF we had a baby, I'm not positive I'd want it to be an only child.
Any suggestions?!?!
Side note, we bd a lot, so even if I am wrong on how far along I am past ovulating, I'm fairly certain we would have bd'd more than once within in our "window".
