TTC After a Loss

Jumping on the bandwagon

This will be about the 4th "temping drives me crazy" post but I am about to go nuts.  I have been temping all of 2 weeks...and I'm bad at it!  I set my alarm for 8am as I work nights and i have to be up by 11am every day.  However, some days because of RE appointments or other people assuming I need to adjust my life for when NORMAL people sleep, I sometimes get up at 8:30 or earlier.  Then I work 4 days a week, 10 hours each day, and I do stupid things on my days off...like staying up until 7am to watch Grey's Anatomy with DH.

Also, I have dreams that I already took my temp and cant figure out whether I did or not.  Sometimes I fall asleep while waiting for my temp to read!  But the icing on top of the cake, other then getting inaccurate temps due to irratic sleep schedules or just not having a temp at all to put in...MY BBT DIED THIS MORNING!!!  After 2 WEEKS!  WTF that thing was suppose to last!  I think its a sign.  RE already does CD3 and mid-cycle monitoring, plus 7DPO p4 testing, I think I am just going to give up and let him handle the obsessing.

Vent over.  Thanks ladies!

Re: Jumping on the bandwagon

  • Wow...temping really doesn't seem to be working for you.  Might be best to give it a rest.
    3 ectopic pregnancies (EDD's 1/30/12-tube removed, 6/2/12-methotrexate and 10/2/12-methotrexate)
    IVF and Natural FET resulted in BFN's and a hole in our wallets
    Natural BFP #4 on 9/7/12 gave us our miracle on 5/18/13

    Ditto!  It might not be worth all the stress!

  • I'm sorry it's such a struggle.  I really found it difficult with my schedule as well.  Maybe try OPK's for a month or two and then add temping to the mix.  Hope you find a pattern that works well for you.  (((hugs)))
