Waiting…

So – we’ve been trying. And after the first couple of times the excitement is wearing off of HAVING to have sex tonight because I may be ovulating. My cycle can be irregular – sometimes its 30 days with ovulation as predicted, other times, like last month my cycle was 6 weeks with spotting when I should have been ovulating, followed a few weeks later by an actual ovulation. This month, when I need that gross egg white goop, nada, but on the other hand I haven’t had the spotting either, so maybe with the sperm etc I just didn’t notice. I had the crankies last weekend which could have been a symptom of ovulation.  

Anyway I’ve been feeling tired all week and I’ve been all ‘ooh! I hope this means I’m pregnant’ – feeling extra tired yesterday and today. Then today I got a really high temperature – on my stomach and forehead.  I don’t know if it means something hormonal, or if I’m sick or what.  I’ve had a bit of forehead temperature through the week though too. I read that after ovulation you have a rise in temperature and also if you’re pregnant your basal body temperature remains high. So…fingers crossed.

We’re still having teh intercourse every couple of days though, just in case.

So we still haven’t started trying. Do you know why?? Because my freaking period is almost 2 weeks late. So it could mean we have a miracle baby made from sperm strong enough to penetrate latex, or my body is just punishing me for eating crap over Christmas and not exercising. Given my current cramps, bloating, mood swings, I’m leaning to the latter.

We’ll see.
