Ugh, temping just always stresses me out. I should have ovulated over the weekend, but the big temp spike just isn't there. So now I'm all anxious like... What if I'm not ovulating? What if I have low progesterone? It's all ridiculous because I clearly had no issues conceiving Emma, my progesterone was fine with her. I'm only 29, I'm only 4 years older now. But I think I'd be like 228432895 times more stressed out if I wasn't temping. Maybe I'll take a break from it next cycle if we don't conceive this month.

I’m about two days late now. I went to the OBGYN and had a terrible experience. I was so mad by the time I left that I cried. I don’t really want to get into it, but I’ll give you the basic gist: She acted like I knew nothing about my own body or the female reproductive system. Also, she forgot that I was even a patient of hers. I’m pretty sure she never even looked at my chart. Ok, the pee…

This was the start of our real TTC journey. While we still prevented a bit at the beginning of this cycle (condoms and pull out, cuz we weren’t that dedicated to preventing), we know we did not do so on some fertile days. This was also the start of the holidays and so we were going to our parents houses for Christmas. I brought a pregnancy test along just in case. My period came a day later than predicted.
