Hello! (New to the Bump)

danieleandwaynedanieleandwayne member
in TTC after 35

Just introducing myself; I'm usually on the Nest. 

Anyhow, I'm 37 and MH (also 37) and I have been TTC since we "pulled the goalie" back at the beginning of October, but only have been charting for 2 months now. This month has been wonky because I switched to a night shift schedule at work; I thought keeping on a night shift sleep schedule (i.e. sleeping from 7am-2pm or thereabouts) would help keep things consistent, but apparently it hasn't worked. 

So that's about it, I think. No children yet, so this would be our first.

    Welcome and I hope your stay is short. I use OPKs instead of temping. I don't sleep very well and was getting stressed about sleeping enough to make temps useful.

    I use OPKs too, but the temps, the OPK, and my CM don't all match up. So what can one do with that? LOL 

    Thanks for the welcome, Kat! I hope my stay here is short, too-- for all of us!
