Seriously though…what IS this cycle.

Cycle 5 CD 35

I am really, really done with this cycle.

I've seen a very established pattern with other cycles, even when they weren't the same length overall: my LH spikes, drops gradually over the next 1-2 days, then hits rock bottom until my period comes. My boobs get sore 1-3 days after the spike and stay that way til my period.

LH spiked on day 32, but has remained notably higher than the rest of my cycle (except the spike) since then. My boobs don't hurt.

So now I don't know if I've even had the real spike/ovulated. We've been having so much more sex than usual for so long (due to not knowing when the fertile window could be expected to start, thanks irregular cycles) that the last time, the day after the spike, my husband couldn't finish because it's just been so much more frequent for such a sustained period of time.

If it turns out we haven't even passed ovulation yet...I can't even.

Cycle 5 CD 32

FINALLY a spike.

For some reason the Premom app has been unable to cope with the fact that I didn’t ovulate when expected and is calling this 7 DPO despite the fact that my LH ratio on the “spike” day in that scenario would’ve been 0.31. I mean I’ll mark today as the peak manually once I confirm a decrease tomorrow. But I feel like the app should be able to figure out that the day with the far and away highest test is in fact the peak day??

Cycle 5 CD 27

No sign of ovulation yet.

Though to be fair to my body, I have been extremely stressed lately.

Some Months Feel Longer When You’re Waiting for a Baby

You stop counting days at first. Then weeks. Then suddenly every cycle feels like a reminder of what is not happening yet.

And even when you try to stay positive, there is that quiet question in your head at night… why is this taking so long for us?

Trying to conceive is not just physical. It is hope, disappointment, and patience all happening at the same time. And sometimes, the hardest part is not knowing if you should wait a little longer or just ask for help.

Needing answers does not make you impatient. It makes you human.
