TTC after 35

Nope

My h is on his way home from Florida and I woke up super early, anxious to hear from him. I went ahead and temped since I know I'm not going to get back to sleep. PLUMMET. I know I'm temping early but there's no way my temp would be this low if I had a bfp. I'm now laying here feeling like crap. Everything had seemed to just fall into place this cycle, I really wanted it to happen. I will join the rest of you kissing this stupid cycle goodbye. I'm going to drink a giant cup of coffee when I get up. I just want to cry. :(

  • Sorry. That sucks.

  • Thanks everyone. I'm so confused now. I don't know what my body is doing. I had the huge drop but then it came back up. It was actually back up to a normal temp later the same day. I know that isn't an accurate reference but when my temp drops for af it always stays lower until I start.

    This morning I woke up feeling cold again but my nightshirt was damp from sweat. So it felt like I had been hot and then the dampness from the sweat made me cold. Could that have messed with my temps yesterday? Ugh, I don't know. Today is CD26 and I couldn't get an accurate temp this morning because my h woke me up in the mood. (Maybe he finds sweat attractive haha.) But my temp has been consistently higher this morning so I'm definitely not in a drop.

    I've had feelings that af was imminent, then the opposite, like yesterday for just a little while I thought I felt a very subtle hint of almost queasiness. Then I completely overreacted and broke into tears over something. It's really messing with my head. This is either a crazy bfp or PMS from HELL. I've never tested pos before CD28 so I'm at least waiting a couple days to see if af shows and puts me out of my misery.

    Maybe my body is just confused after the D and C. The first af seemed normal other than being heavy. But I had some intense cramping around O so it definitely hasn't been what I would consider a normal cycle this time.

    Gaahhhh I don't know.

  • It totally messes with your mind, doesn't it?  Many people will say temping post-ovulation won't tell you anything (though I, too, have had temp drops pre-AF).  Good luck @Guennie.  I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you!  :)

  • This would drive me crazy.
    Wait a few days then take a test. I think the temp thing is throwing you off. Did you get your temp shift to confirm O? If you did than maybe back away from the thermometer and just wait a few days and test.

    All welcome

  • Fx for you @guennie! If someone tells me to relax I go insane. But hopefully the next couple days pass quickly
  • I've read that sometimes temping isn't always accurate (due to other things like stress, sleep disturbance, illness, etc.). And also, there are times the temp can drop a few days after ovulation because there's a second estrogen surge. But I'm sure either way you'll find out soon what's going on. I go nuts trying to understand my cycle so I totally understand. My fingers are crossed for you!!

  • Thanks again guys. I did have a temp shift, then another one. Since I didn't OPK I don't know which one was O but fortunately as luck would have it we did the deed both days. I had the same thing the cycle I conceived my daughter two years ago. I got a pos OPK on the second shift. I've been thinking the same thing happened this cycle because I checked my cervix the day of the second shift and it seemed fertile. But of course I can't confirm. I guess I'll know soon enough. Either af will show in the next couple days or I'll go ahead and test.

  • Well I'm officially out. Started very fresh spotting last night and full on heavy flow this morning. I feel like I want to punch someone then go curl up in a ball and sob for an entire day. I haven't had PMS this bad in a very long time. I must be just in transition still from the D and C.

    I'm feeling very conflicted now. Part of me wants to just let all of this go and move on with my life without thinking about wanting another child. The other part of me knows there are still another couple months it could happen and doesn't want to give up. At the moment I don't know which part of me is going to win.

  • @Guennie, I'm sorry your AF showed up.  I was so hoping it would work out for you this month.  I'm also sorry you're going through this.  My thoughts are with you.

  • Thank you. I suppose we are all familiar with the rollercoaster. I wish none of us knew this feeling.
