Guess who showed up again today? AF! Exactly 25 days after she showed up last time. Usually my periods are about a YEAR apart! What's up with this craziness?! When I woke up this morning I saw some spotting but didn't think much of it. I figured I would wait a few days and see what happened. Last month it took a two or three days for the spotting to turn into a real period. So I took a shower and hopped on the internet. While I was sitting at my chair I started getting cramps...THOSE kind of cramps. So I went to the bathroom and "it" had started. I wonder if that means I ovulated last month. You can't get a period without ovulating, right? I'll take a HPT tomorrow just out of curiousity, though I'm sure it will be negative. Still, maybe the D&C from March helped to regulate my cycle. At least SOMETHING good came out of that whole crappy situation.
On a completely unrelated note, my best friend is coming to visit me next month and we're taking a day trip to New York City to see West Side Story on Broadway! So we've got about 4 hours in the morning to kill, any suggestions? We want to see as much as possible so we thought about just taking a bus tour.
Yes you can, or so I have been told. The doc. at Madigan, said that since I have consistantly been late my whole life (cycles usually longer than 35 days), I probably have not ovulated on my own, this whole time. I think that is a load of BS. How is it that I have had Aunt Flow, for 14 years (about 9 a year), but no ovulation? I have had it up to here with Madgian, and nobody to help me fight them, with David gone. The Dr, I saw last week, told me to loose weight and get a Wii, and all my problems will be solved and I will get pregnant. They still can't find anything wrong with me, specifically, and won't run anymore tests until the hubs get's home. I might just start going out in town, except I would have to start this whole process all over agin. 2 IUI's later, and still nothing. Everything seems to go right when I am on Clomid, but all these months later, nothing. Until my IVF (January), the doc. wants me to go on a whole new regimine. We'll see.
ReplyDeleteGood luck to you guys. I am keeping my fingers crossed for you.

I started yesterday. I hate periods. I hate cramps. Boo. LoL But yes, you can actually get a period, but not have ovulated. It happens to me ALL of the time. It's called an anovulatory cycle. I don't know how that happens, but it does. Not trying to burst your bubble though! Sorry! But getting a regular period again is definitely good news for you!
ReplyDeleteHave fun in NYC! I don't have any suggestions though, because I haven't been yet. I need to go soon though becuase I'm only a few hours away! I need to get down there!
It's possible it regulated your body. My first miscarriage did that for me - mine are also irregular usually. That's good though that your body has regulated itself, good to have more dependability on your body!
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean. Since I began TTC, my periods have FINALLY regulated! It's weird to actually get a regular period, isn't it? :)
ReplyDeleteYay for knowing your body can do part of what it's supposed to do. There's so much to see in New York, it's hard to say, but if you have a short time, than yes a bus tour may be a good idea.
