good with with the high temps you wanted <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">
I like charting- even just recording the first day of my cycle so I can go back and see how long they've been.
All my friends, who have never heard of BBT (WHAT>??!!not heard of it..) think its a pretty amazing trick I can do with the temps and know when AF is coming.
Nope- just science...

Your charts do look good- even promising. Dont you hate that.
Id rather have a flat chart or one that is ALL over the place than one that looks like its keeps going higher and higher and then crashes.

Yeah, my charts 'appear' ovulatory and always have. I so wished something would look messed up so it could be fixed, and I could just move merrily along - pick up a couple flowers along the way...The fact that my charts are so 'normal', honestly, p*sses me off. After 2 years of TTC and 8 cycles of charting, most appear so 'normal'. It's just not fair...

That's why I'm not charting anymore. Almost all my charts had ovulation on either Day 15 or 16 so I just try and baby dance during that time. I usually get very crampy and bloated at that time too so I know what's going on. My cycles are every 29 - 30 days like clockwork so picking out Day 15 isn't hard to do.

My Fertility Friend VIP subscription expires tomorrow, and I have no intention of renewing it. I will only be indicating the beginning of my period. *Taking some much needed time off.* Now with spring upon us, I wouldn't feel as compelled to run to the bathroom every second that I think my period has arrived. Or wake up at 3:00 am, and think it's 7:00 am to take my basal temp. Like I said, I was obsessed with temp taking...There were times where I actually drempt that I had to wake up to take my temp because it was 'that time'. Almost sick...I know...

Edited to Add: My bloodwork will be back either Wednesday or Thursday so I'll keep you posted. I think my progesterone level will either be fine, meaning I ovulated. Or it will be 'borderline', meaning maybe I did or the quality of the egg wasn't too great. The second theory would be in relation to the PCOS diagnosis that I was given and now being disputed.
