I have been debating for awhile now about my O date for this cycle. First, I have had irregular cycles for a year. Second, after being on bcp for so long, I forgot what my normal cycles were like, although they were regular for the first few months after bcp. Third, I find it to be a miracle that I could of possibly O'ed early. Could it possibly be that my cycles are becoming regular?
I have changed a lot in the past few months. Before my second m/c I charted, always drank regular coffee, always had a glass or two of wine with my meals, on the weekends I would have manhattans and martinis, I didn't exercise and had irregular cycles. While doing all these things and TTC, I would of never given up these habits until I saw a BFP. Why change when your not pg? Well everything changed after my second m/c.
I started thinking maybe these somewhat "bad" habits were effecting me more than I thought. The first month I started charting and throughout my charting months I was ALWAYS irregular. I started thinking what else was I doing that I wasn't doing before. I really took time and examined my life and what I was doing. So the day finally came that I decided it was time to put an end. My new changes have been drinking decaf coffee even on the weekends now, I don't drink anything with caffeine, I don't drink alcohol anymore not even a glass of wine, I stopped charting, I began exercising, and things started changing in my body. My cycles were starting to change from irregular to regular. Could it be that these changes had that much effect on my cycles and on my body? My August cycle, which was my m/c was 36 days. My September cycle was 33 days.
Well this cycle seems to be heading in the same direction, regular. I started getting fertile cm on CD 9, which for me is way to early. I started seeing more and more each day. I had my HSG on CD 13 and that totally changed my cm. On CD 14 I started to feel some aches on my ovary, similar to O pains but not that intense. I was sure it was probably aches from the HSG. Well the aches continue and so did the cm. On CD 16 I decided I needed some confirmation of what was going on. I took my temp and was surprised to see a post O temp. It was a low post temp, so it could of been a very high pre O temp as well. The following day I did again, and again it was higher. I took my temp for 5 days straight in a row and I got 5 days of increasing higher temps. So after looking at that, I can pretty much say I probably O'ed on CD 15 which is a MIRACLE for me. The girl who was irregular for a year? The one that had a 61 day cycle? I just have to wait for AF to arrive to confirm it 100%. Could it possibly be that my new changes are changing my cycles that much? I just hope they stay like this next cycle when I begin TTC. I have to say I'm so excited that I'm regular for the 3rd cycle in a row. I really feel like this is a miracle. I honestly feel that certain things that we do in our daily life can significantly change us. Come on AF hurry up so I can start TTC!!!
