I'm turning into a crazy person

in TTC after 35
Okay, I would like to start by saying that I know that I am being completely and totally irrational. But with that said, I would love for someone to reinforce that I am being crazy....
My cycle is very regular -- almost always ovulating between 14 and 17 days. I got a positive OPK on Saturday, but my temperature has not gone up. Now I am on day 21 and in a panic thinking that I am entering peri-menopause and will never ovulate again.
Like I said, I am turning into a crazy person.

Re: I'm turning into a crazy person
Flukey things happen with cycles. Don't panic.
I can't call you crazy because I've been known to throw myself into such panic modes over stranger things.

Haha....This here!
Funny!
I have had the perimenopause paranoia myself before. I guess it means we are normal?
ME:46 MH:44 DE IVF 2014
Met with RE 4/11. 2 IUI's BFN. DE best option. Switched clinics to do "shared" program. Had to retake all tests and a mamm that put me behind and then on a DE waiting list for 12 months. Picked a donor!! (10/13/13) Got matched. Estimated transfer in December. After 2.5 years of patiently waiting I will finally cycle....can hardly believe it. DE cycle got cancelled. One of her tests came back positive. Waiting for another donor. Donor picked!! (1/18/14)
DE IVF #1 (4/26) BFN DE FET #1 (6/4) BFP! Beta 1=339 Beta 2=852 Beta 3=9957 EDD 2/22/15!!
Are you between treatment cycles by chance?
Before IF treatments, my cycles were always like clockwork. Today I got AF after a 23 day cycle. WTF?
TTC since 10/2010
IUIs # 1-5 = BFFN
IVF # 1(July 2012) = BFN
IVF # 2 (November 2012) = BFP (MIssed MC D&C @ 8w3d on 1/10/13)
Thanks ladies! It is good to know that I am not alone. Some vigorous housecleaning and baking for my boss's party tomorrow also helped calm me down.
I am away from my doctor for my final few weeks in Philadelphia, so I'll just tough it out without a blood draw.
We were both probably googling perimenopause at the same time yesterday!
I spoke to my older sister and she was saying her periods are starting to get lighter and much shorter, she's 45 and she was saying she thinks the beginnings of menopause are showing up..so I started freaking thinking I have 5 more years to make this happen.. and the googling ensued..
Me 41 DH 46 Not actively ttc, surprise BFP on 1/6/11! 4/1/11 m/c our sunshine at 16wks after complications from CVS test. TTC #2 **5th cycle 12/6/11 BFP! Missed m/c at 9 weeks 1/21/12, trisomy 14. Two Chemical PG 3/12&7/12

LOL - I always think about this. The worst part is that my mother had a hysterectomy in her 30s, so I have no information on when I might go into menopause (if such things are hereditary?)! I really hope I can squeeze at least one baby in before I do!
