As I've mentioned before, I'm still charting my BBT this month just so I have some solid proof of ovulation, even though we're not "trying." I have to call the doctor back soon so they can schedule a follow-up ultrasound to see if the cysts have dissolved. According to those darn OPKs (which I was hoping to avoid, but decided to use for confirmation), I should be o'ing in the next 24-36 hours. My temperature has been steadily going down, so I'm hoping for a temperature spike in the next two days just to confirm. I have NO physical symptoms of ovulation, though. I've been able to tell when it's happening in the past, and this month...nothin', except for the typical cramping that's my little present from the cysts. I am going to be very concerned if the chart shows that I'm not ovulating.... I know they can give you stuff like Clomid, but I can barely handle birth control pills, let alone the hardcore stuff. Seriously. I quit taking BCPs in February '09 because it was making me feel like I was on an emotional rollercoaster and it was causing a blood clot. At one point, I very seriously considered going into counseling because I just couldn't handle any type of stress, thanks to the funky hormones (except at the time, I didn't know that it was due to the BCPs). So, fingers crossed that I ovulate just fine and I don't need any help.
On the non-baby front, I've been keeping up with my running, and DH and I even sprung for an ab workout DVD. We'll be starting that tonight. I like having a focus. =) I also like weekends where I have time to get dinner made and the dishes washed. I feel like any day where I can get dinner on the table and all the dishes washed is a day where I win.
