Time to play the waiting game

in TTC after 35
So my period has been a little silly lately and not sure what my cycle is anymore. I tried to calculate things going by a 28 day cycle which was always  the way it was and also by a 33 day which is how it seems to be the past few months. So now if I am 28 days I am due for my period on the 8th and if 33 dys due on the 13th. So now I just have to wait and see. I really think I am going to have a very hard time getting pregnant naturally. I have been off birth control since nov but no luck yet. I really love this website!!

    My cycles are really irregular when I'm off the pill and I have found that charting my BBT has really helped me to pinpoint when AF is gonna show her ugly head.  It took a little while to get used to taking my temp every morning and I still miss a day here or there.   But it has really helped me the last two cycles because they ended up being long ones. If I hadn't pinpointed that temp shift I would have been driving myself crazy over analyzing every little phantom symptom and thinking I was late when really it was just a long cycle.  The charts are also good info for the doctor should you need some medical help getting the BFP.

    Hang in there and maybe your waiting game will end with a BFP this month :-)

    Me 39 & suspected PCOS, DH 42. Went off BCP when we got married in 11/11, seriously TTC since 3/12.  Six cycles of clomid = BFNs.  Suspected endometriosis & HSG showed both tubes blocked.  Sept 2013 IVF 5D transfer of two perfect embryos = BFN.  Started acupuncture and taking time off to drop some pounds & get healthier before FET in April 2014.
