TTC Rant

This shit is confusing and frustrating as hell.

Take your bbt every morning, but if your past three temps aren't higher than the previous 6 then you didn't really ovulate. But you still might! Even though you totally felt mittelschmerz on the left side and you got EWCM a couple days prior. But, then again, you also got EWCM a week after that ovulation pain so who even knows when you ovulated at all 🤷🏼‍♀️

Also, keep peeing on OPKs, but only pay attention to your first positive opk. But keep peeing on them daily to look for a progression. When you get that positive opk, that means you may ovulate!

Soon!

Like, in the next 12 hours! Or 36! Who knows! So you'd better start having sex so you don't miss that ambiguous window.

But wait! Your 7 year-old has separation anxiety and doesn't want to be left alone in the living room. Postpone the sex. Also, he's afraid of the dark, so he wants to cuddle in your bed. Postpone the sex. HALLELUJAH your in-laws offered to take him for a few hours but JUST KIDDING, their plans changed. Postpone the sex. Welp, there goes that window 🤷🏼‍♀️

Didn't think that pinpointing ovulation and actually having sex in a scheduled time frame would be this difficult!
