Cycle day 10 for me. I am using a fertility monitor (pictured left) this cycle. This detects estrogen as well as the LH hormone so it gives you a wider range of probable conception dates. Once the test reads an increase in estrogen, it gives you a high reading to let you know that your body is preparing to ovulate. Once it detects the LH hormone, it gives you a peak reading telling you that you will ovulate in the next 24-36 hours. Today, on cycle day 10, I got a high reading. What the heck!!! My normal ovulation day is cd14-cd16. On my first round of Clomid last month, I ovulated on cd12, not cool. With a traveling husband, you have to be able to prepare for these things!! Essentially a "high" reading just means that an elevated level of estrogen has been detected, and does not mean that I will ovulate in the next few days. However, it does mean that my estrogen level is increasing in preparation for ovulation. I just hope and pray that my body waits for my husband on Friday! I really am tired of playing these Reindeer Games! I have one more cycle of Clomid and then my OB wants to do "further testing". I told Rich that I think we should just set a projected date for me to start smoking again and call it quits. I was joking...kinda.
On a much less stressful note... we are leaving for a Christmas trip to Cancun Mexico soon, so I will try to update, but I am making no promises. Just pray that the little eggie or eggies as it may be, will stay tucked away and not come out until the spermies are available to come out and play! Getting pregnant in Cancun would be a very happy ending to this story!
