Hey! Is it too late to join in?
I'm actualy a bit head fried, so I'll give you some context. My first pregnancy and misscarriage was in Feb 2020 - we weren't TTC at this time, but it was a happy accident and made us realise how ready we were for a family.
Fast forward to May 2021, we've bought our first home and we have a 8 month old puppy. I was religiously tracking my cycles using Natural Cycles - temping and ovulation tests, and I learnt so much but it upset our love life, as we weren't ready to TCC again and the red day/green day thing took the spark out of it. So I came off NC and started the pill again this summer... but it made me so sick and our love life was in the dirt haha - like the biggest rut you could image... so I just stopped everything.
Fast forward again to Nov 2021 and I'm still not on BC (stupidly haven't mentioned to the partner because we still weren't DTD at the stage.. and I don't know I just haven't brought it up). BUUUT, last weekend (Sun 24th) we had the chat about starting a family and have agreed the New Year!! The following morning ( Mon 25th) HE INITATED DTD and I just went with it.. unprotected.
(Sorry this is so long a rambly). Because I haven't been tracking I can't know for sure, but if I look back and compare older cycles when I was tracking.. I think we DTD a couple of days before ovulation this month.
I've done OTKs every day since Friday 29th to try and find my peak to figure out if I've ovulated yet this month.. but they're getting weaker every day which makes me feel like I've already ovulated.
Anyway... my current situ is that I think I'm 4/5DPO and a terrible person for not communictaing with my partner better.
In terms of symtoms, I'm having frequent dizzy spells, I'm very tired and I have cramping on my left.
Trying to fight off my POAS addiction!!
